PIEZOELECTRIC PUMP

Miniature in size

The DTI-200-12P and DTI-200-12A models of miniature piezoelectric pumps feature technology that solves size problems, power consumption, noise, and reliability for a range of liquid and gas pumping applications. The pumps operate when the bonded piezoelectric crystals are stressed and distorted by an electric field, which causes the diaphragm to flex and two check valves to respond to this flexing, creating a pumping action. Electromagnetic noise is eliminated because there are no electric motors. Both pumps have a pump life of 10,000 hrs and can deliver flow rates of up to 200 ml/min for water and 7.5 SCFH for air.
