Understanding how pumps work is essential when selecting the right equipment for your needs. The Action Pump utilizes positive displacement (PD) mechanical action, which captures and releases discrete amounts of liquid into a chamber before forcing it out. This method is highly effective for transferring various liquids and is commonly found in applications such as fuel and oil pumps, hydraulic systems, and even bicycle pumps.
In contrast, kinetic pumps operate by transferring energy from the pump’s movement to the flow, typically employing an impeller to draw in fluids and propel them through a volute, or spiral funnel. Regardless of the type, pumps may be powered by various energy sources, including manual operation, electricity, or fuel.
Action Pump, established in 1981 and headquartered in Cary, IL, specializes in manufacturing drum and pail pumps, as well as products for grease, oil, and lubrication. Their commitment to quality and innovation makes them a trusted name in the industry.
