Electrically operated, energy-efficient double diaphragm pumps

October 2026 Pneumatics & Hydraulics


BMG has expanded its fluid handling offering with the introduction of the EVO series 210 electric double diaphragm pump range from Ingersoll Rand’s ARO fluid handling products, designed to deliver reliable, energy-efficient fluid transfer in demanding industrial applications.

“The EVO 210 series offers an alternative to conventional air-operated diaphragm pumps. These electric double diaphragm pumps combine the familiar benefits of diaphragm pump technology with lower energy consumption, quieter operation and simplified maintenance,” says Joe Pinheiro, national product manager, pumps at BMG. “The range is engineered for applications requiring reliable fluid transfer, batching and dosing, and is suited to sectors including chemical processing, mining, wastewater treatment, and general manufacturing. These pumps are designed to handle challenging process conditions while helping operators reduce operating costs and maintenance demands.”

Unlike traditional air-operated diaphragm pumps that rely on compressed air, the EVO series uses an electric motor to drive a mechanism that moves flexible diaphragms in a controlled reciprocating motion. This creates suction by drawing fluid into the pump chamber before discharging it through the outlet valve, delivering a smooth and consistent flow. By eliminating the need for compressed air infrastructure, the system improves overall energy efficiency while reducing operational noise.

Compared with air-operated alternatives, the EVO series 210 significantly reduces energy consumption while maintaining robust performance. Secondary leak containment for process fluids enhances operational safety, with optional electronic leak detection available for critical applications where early fault warning is required. Maintenance has been simplified through a design that allows access to both diaphragms from the same side of the unit, an advantage in confined installation environments where service access is often restricted. A straightforward drive mechanism with fewer components improves long-term reliability while reducing service complexity and maintenance costs.

The EVO series 210 is available in metallic and non-metallic configurations. Metallic variants in aluminium and stainless steel provide durability for mechanically demanding environments, while polypropylene and polyvinylidene fluoride non-metallic options offer enhanced chemical compatibility for aggressive fluid handling applications.

The EVO 210, a 1-inch model within the range, is equipped with a 1,5 kW four-pole motor and is suitable for smaller batch and dosing applications. Multiple voltage and frequency options enable compatibility with varying electrical supply requirements, while inverter-duty motor capability allows integration with variable frequency drives where process control flexibility is required.

The EVO series 210 range meets ISO 12100 standards and carries CE certification. Metallic pumps are also available from BMG for hazardous environment applications requiring relevant compliance. BMG supports this range with a technical advisory service to assist with pump selection, and supplies a full range of ARO diaphragm pump parts and accessories for standard repair and maintenance requirements.
