Danfoss APP 10.2 (Part Number 180B3010) High Pressure Pump
Choosing the right high-pressure pump can make or break the reliability of a reverse osmosis or industrial water system, and the Danfoss APP 10.2 is built to take that concern off the table. This axial piston pump uses a water-lubricated, oil-free design, so there's no risk of oil contaminating your processed water and no oil changes to schedule. The body is constructed from Duplex stainless steel, giving it strong resistance to the corrosive effects of seawater and brackish water while keeping the pump compact and relatively lightweight for its output class.
In terms of raw performance, the APP 10.2 delivers a maximum flow of roughly 45.4 gallons per minute and can generate outlet pressure up to 1200 psig, operating across a speed range of 700 to 1800 rpm. That combination makes it a strong fit for mid-to-large scale desalination setups, water treatment plants, and other high-pressure water applications where consistent output and long service intervals matter. Its simple, low-complexity construction with few moving parts also means less downtime and easier maintenance over the life of the pump.
Whether you're specifying a pump for a new reverse osmosis installation, replacing a worn unit in an existing system, or scaling up water production capacity, the Danfoss 180B3010 offers a dependable, efficient option backed by a well-established product line with a strong reputation across desalination, industrial cleaning, humidification, and water treatment applications.
