The Debem FPC Air Operated Diaphragm Pump is an Italian manufactured AODD pump designed to very high standards, constructed from a solid piece of PTFE. The Boxer range are very versatile air operated double diaphragm pumps for use within many industrial applications involving chemicals, process fluids, waste water and is commonly used as a high viscosity pump and for liquids containing solids.
The Boxer AODD pump comes with wetted parts available in a range of materials, making it compatible with almost any fluid on the market. Thanks to its ATEX approval to Zone 2 (Zone 1 on request), it is also suitable for use within potentially flammable environments.
This Debem range of air operated diaphragm pumps are what we like to describe as “Fit and forget” solutions. Thanks to their low maintenance, long service life and little manual intervention required, the air operated diaphragm pumps can just be left to do their job.
Features of the Boxer AODD Pump:
Can be run dry and can pump long distances and dry run without damage, making them unaffected by process stops and pauses in the production line.
Self-priming capabilities of up to 6m for difficult suction conditions
Can handle viscosities up to 50000 cp (depending upon installation)
Patented stall protection - If there is a pressure imbalance the pump will continue running without stalling, reducing downtime and time consuming manual intervention.
Easily adjustable flow - By amending the air inlet pressure, you can efficiently meet the exact flow requirements of an installation/process.
Wide range of uses - Can handle viscous fluids with low moisture content, solids up to 4mm and aggressive chemicals due to the various diaphragm materials.
Low cost to maintain - Long life diaphragms designed for more than 50M cycles and a lot fewer internal wearing parts to maintain compared to equivalent AODD pump models.
Fine tuning of motor speed at a constant pressure.
Actuated via a non-lubricated air system
3 suction & delivery port positions
ATEX approved to Zones 1 & 2, II 2/2 GD c IIB T135ºC & II 3/3 GD c IIB T135ºC

Debem BOXER AODD pumps have a large range of benefits that make them a “fit and forget” solution ideal for many industrial processes.
Low cost to maintain - Long life diaphragms designed for more than 50 million cycles and a lot fewer internal wearing parts to maintain compared to equivalent AODD pump models.
Easily adjustable flow - By amending the air inlet pressure, you can efficiently meet the exact flow requirements of an installation/process.
Leak-free – It’s seal-less design makes the Boxer air operated diaphragm pump ideal for handling corrosive fluids that may cause harm, as well as generally being a cleaner solution.
Patented stall protection - If there is a pressure imbalance the pump will continue running without stalling, reducing downtime and time consuming manual intervention.
Dry run capabilities – Can dry run without damage, making unaffected by pauses in a production line or instances where the operator has left them running
Self-priming up to 6m – Do not need an additional manual priming device to enable them to draw long distances.
Versatile - Can handle viscous fluids with low moisture content, solid content, fuels and lubricants and aggressive chemicals due to the various diaphragm materials.
100% pump testing - All models undergo a suction and operation test, as well as a leak check to ensure all are fit for purpose, rather than batch testing.
AODD pumps are a versatile type of pump design, able to transfer a large range of high and low viscosity fluids thanks to the multiple materials diaphragms are constructed of, including aggressive chemicals thanks to their seal-less design. The Debem Boxer air operated diaphragm pumps' pumping mechanism makes them suitable for most liquids including those containing solids and shear sensitive fluids. They are popular choices in industrial plants where air supply is already easily accessible as it is often cheaper to run than electrical pumps.
