Iwaki SP26-10 Bellows Pump 100V
The Iwaki SP26-10 is a compact, electrically driven bellows pump built for reliable fluid transfer in demanding industrial settings. Its sealed bellows construction eliminates the need for a shaft seal, which means there's no risk of the slow drips or seepage that plague many conventional pump designs. This makes it a dependable choice anywhere consistent, leak-free operation matters, whether that's a plating line, a photographic processing system, a lab setup, or a general industrial fluid-handling application.
Built from a combination of polypropylene and synthetic rubber, this pump is engineered to stand up to acids, alkalis, and a wide range of corrosive chemical solutions without breaking down over time. It's also capable of dry-run operation and self-priming, giving operators flexibility in how and where it's installed without worrying about damage from an empty line. The 100V configuration makes it suited for facilities running on that voltage standard, and its compact footprint means it fits neatly into built-in equipment or tight OEM assemblies where space is limited.
What really sets this pump apart is its durability. The bellows itself is molded as a single, continuous body, engineered to endure tens of millions of expansion and contraction cycles before wear becomes a concern. Paired with a rugged internal drive mechanism, the SP26-10 is built to keep performing reliably long after cheaper alternatives would need replacing, making it a smart long-term investment for facilities that depend on consistent fluid handling day in and day out.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What makes the Iwaki SP26-10 different from a standard diaphragm pump?
A: Its sealed bellows design removes the shaft seal entirely, which means there's no wear point for leaks to develop, giving it a longer maintenance-free service life compared to many diaphragm alternatives.
Q: Can the SP26-10 handle corrosive chemicals?
A: Yes. Its polypropylene and synthetic rubber construction is specifically chosen to resist acids, alkalis, and other corrosive chemical solutions.
Q: Is the Iwaki SP26-10 suitable for continuous industrial use?
A: The pump's single-molded bellows is rated for tens of millions of expansion and contraction cycles, making it well suited for long-term, continuous-duty applications.
Q: Does this pump require priming before startup?
A: No. The SP26-10 is self-priming and can also run dry without damage, simplifying installation and startup procedures.
Q: What industries commonly use this pump?
A: It's widely used in plating, photographic processing, laboratory settings, and general chemical feed or industrial fluid transfer applications.
