FLUID PUMPING APPARATUS AND SYSTEM WITH LEAK DETECTION AND CONTAINMENT

摘要

A fluid pumping apparatus and system including a double acting diaphragm pumping device in which each pumping component has a pair of spaced apart diaphragms defining a containment chamber and all exposed surfaces in the pumping chamber and the containment chamber are made of an inert plastic material, a fluid sensor extending into each containment chamber for sensing the presence of unwanted fluids therein, and a pump control system for activating the pumping apparatus and responding to an output signal generated by either sensor to deactivate the pumping apparatus in the event of leakage of fluid into either containment chamber.
