Cone Check™ Diaphragm Pumps
Developed especially for handling high-solids and abrasives like those found in stone, clay and glass applications, the new Cone Check Pumps offer the process professional a high-performance, high-endurance alternative to traditional diaphragm pumps with ball-style checks. In laboratory and field tests, the new ARO Cone Checks have proven to outlast standard checks by as much as 5-to-1 according to the manufacturer. In one test involving abrasive ceramic slurry, the trial Cone Check Pump lasted 2-years without failure. Utilizing a hexagonal valve design that opens and closes with each cycle of the pump, the cone check is more suited to easy-flow passage of particles and abrasives while maintaining critical back pressure.

Powder Transfer Systems
The air-operated Powder Transfer System is designed specifically for the transfer of process powders up to 40-lbs/cu.ft (721-kgs/cu.m). ARO's new Powder Transfer System, a modified diaphragm pump, incorporates patented stall-free air valving together with a new air induction system (patent pending) that boosts efficiency and eliminates powder pack-out at startup.
The new ARO Powder Transfer System replaces messy manual powder transfer processes and has proven to be much more economical and more simple than large installed "systems".
In rigorous testing (both laboratory and field), the ARO® Powder Transfer System has proven to routinely deliver pack-free, trouble-free powder transfer at a fraction of the cost that installed systems demand.
