Yamada NDP-20BPT-PP FLANGE 3/4 in Polypropylene AODD Pump, PTFE Diaphragms
The Yamada NDP-20BPT-PP FLANGE is a genuine Yamada NDP-20 series air-operated double diaphragm (AODD) pump, built with a polypropylene pump body and PTFE diaphragms and valve balls. It uses compressed shop air, not electricity, to reciprocate a pair of diaphragms that alternately draw fluid in on one side of the pump and push it out the other, which lets it run dry without damage, self-prime from a lift, and pass moderate solids without stalling.
With a 3/4 in port and up to 31.7 GPM, this pump is sized for medium-to-heavy duty transfer, dosing and wash-down work. Flanged inlet and outlet ports simplify hard-piped installations. As with any AODD pump, never run it against a fully closed discharge valve for an extended period, and keep the air supply filtered and regulated to protect the air valve.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can this pump run dry?
Briefly, yes, since it is self-priming, but running dry for an extended period accelerates wear on the diaphragms and check valves. Avoid prolonged dry running whenever possible.
Q: How often should the diaphragms be replaced?
There is no fixed interval. Diaphragms are a wear item that fail from flex fatigue, chemical attack or dry-running, so replace on a schedule that matches your duty cycle and inspect at the first sign of reduced flow or fluid at the muffler.
Q: Is a filter-regulator required?
Not required, but strongly recommended. A filter-regulator on the air supply keeps moisture and debris out of the air valve, which is the leading cause of erratic cycling and premature air motor wear.
Q: Can I convert it to a different diaphragm material later?
In most cases yes, with the matching repair kit for that elastomer, provided the wetted-parts material of the kit is compatible with the pump body material.
