ODS
The ODS air-operated diaphragm pump is one of FLSmidth’s finest and most popular. It offers heavy-duty performance superior to standard centrifugal and helical screw pumps for specific applications. It can handle a variety of process materials, including abrasive and corrosive slurries, large solids, air-entrained slurries, and shear-sensitive liquids. In addition, the ODS can gently pump delicate materials through its diaphragm without agitating the slurries or shearing any solids.
The ODS air-operated diaphragm pump from FLSmidth requires minimal maintenance, and it’s sealless design provides two key benefits:
- No contamination of the process slurry
- No leaks of hazardous materials into the environment
ODS pumps are robust and durable, which provides dependable operation day in and day out. Once it is installed, this pump requires little attention. It is a true workhorse for slurry processing that would quickly wear out other sealed pumps.

Dorr-Oliver ODS Air-Operated Diaphragm Pumps
Dorr-Oliver ODS Air-Operated Diaphragm Pumps are heavy duty and multipurpose pumps that are built to last. Their pump, on average, can outlast a competitor’s pump two to three times longer than even their best models.
Their pumps are long-lasting due to their sturdy construction and efficiency in transferring media. Their construction allows them to pump sludges and scum that other models would not be able to handle. Any type of media that can flow through a pipe can be pumped efficiently by a Dorr-Oliver pump.
Many different sizes and variations of their pumps are available to work for whatever application you are performing. They provide an easy to follow Pump Selection Guide to help you determine what size and which specifications you will need to decide which ODS pump is right for you. Once you choose the right pump, it can be automated to match all of your process requirements and meet your capacities to provide you maximum process efficiency.
The ODS pump can be operated indefinitely while dry due to its superior construction and design. It is physically incapable of air binding, there is no stator that would run the risk of burning out, and its seal-less design eliminates the potential for seal failure. In addition to these features, the ODS pump can also be adjusted while in operation to give you flexibility in your capacity and discharge pressures. All of these benefits create an extremely low maintenance, yet high performing, pump. DXP Pacific is proud to distribute ODS pumps, and any questions about them can be answered by our knowledgeable customer service representatives.
