  • Publication number: 20100158716
    Abstract: A pump for one or more different process fluids is provided including a pumping chamber having a process fluid inlet and outlet coupled to a process fluid valve on each pumping chamber for selectively preventing and allowing flow of process fluid through the pumping chamber. An actuation mechanism for pumping actuating fluid to actuating fluid chambers is provided that is in communication with the actuating fluid chambers to permit flow into each actuating fluid chamber of incompressible actuating fluid. A diaphragm separates each pumping chamber from an associated actuating fluid chamber for separating process fluid from actuating fluid. The actuation mechanism is removable by a quick disconnect that provides for disconnection of the activation mechanism without affecting process fluid. Operation of the actuation mechanism to displace actuating fluid causes actuating fluid to flow only into each actuating fluid chamber having an opened process fluid valve, resulting in pumping.

  • Publication number: 20090016903
    Abstract: A high purity, high precision pump capable of pumping more than one type of chemistry or process fluid without requiring cleaning or changing of surfaces contacting the processing fluid. The pump employs a single drive mechanism coupled in parallel with multiple pumping chambers, each capable of handling a different type of manufacturing fluid. The pump can be utilized as part of a single stage or multi-stage pump system.
