Hydra-Cell D10EKPECCEPC Pump: 8 GPM Seal-less Polypropylene Head Pump
The Hydra-Cell D10EKPECCEPC is a rugged, seal-less diaphragm pump built for anyone who needs dependable fluid transfer without the constant worry of leaking seals or damaged internals. With a polypropylene pump head, Viton diaphragms, and 17-4 stainless steel valves with Elgiloy springs, this pump is designed to move demanding fluids—chemicals, cleaning solutions, agricultural sprays, and water-based mixtures—without breaking down under pressure or exposure to corrosive media.
What sets this pump apart is its multiple-diaphragm design, which produces a smooth, nearly pulse-free flow while eliminating the dynamic seals that typically wear out and fail in conventional pumps. It can run dry indefinitely without sustaining damage, self-primes on its own, and handles everything from thin liquids to higher-viscosity fluids with equal reliability. Whether it's mounted in a car wash system, a chemical processing line, an agricultural sprayer, or a water treatment setup, this pump is built to keep working long after other pumps would have failed.
Owners of the D10EKPECCEPC consistently point to its low-maintenance operation as the reason they stick with Hydra-Cell pumps. Because there are no seals to replace and the diaphragms are protected from the pumped fluid, downtime and repair costs drop significantly compared to traditional piston or centrifugal pumps used in similar applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can the D10EKPECCEPC pump handle abrasive or particulate-heavy fluids?
Yes, its seal-less design with horizontal disk check valves allows it to move fluids containing solids and abrasives that would damage seal-dependent pumps.
Q: Does this pump require a specific motor or drive setup?
The D10EKPECCEPC is a shaft-driven pump, so it requires a compatible motor and coupling sized to match its RPM and horsepower requirements for the intended application.
Q: What fluid temperature range can this pump tolerate?
The polypropylene head and Viton diaphragm construction are suited for standard industrial fluid temperatures; higher-temperature applications should be reviewed against the component material limits before installation.
Q: Is this pump suitable for continuous-duty industrial use?
Yes, its diaphragm design and run-dry capability make it well suited for continuous or heavy-cycle industrial duty, not just intermittent use.
Q: How does the polypropylene head compare to brass or stainless steel versions?
The polypropylene head offers strong chemical and corrosion resistance at a lower pressure rating than metal heads, making it ideal for aggressive chemicals where metal components would corrode over time.
