  • Such pumps are used in particular in the chemical, pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors, where the media to be pumped are sometimes very expensive, so it is desirable that after the pumping process, there is as little or as little residual volume of the pumped medium as possible remaining in the diaphragm pump. Furthermore, the complete filling of such diaphragm pumps with the fluid without air inclusions is advantageous for the pumping performance.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to improve the known diaphragm pumps with regard to the residual emptying and/or the venting of the pump chambers.
