Composition of Diaphragm Materials

Diaphragm materials are the base materials from which we manufacture diaphragms. They incorporate media-resistant composites and comprise at least two components: an elastomer layer and vulcanized textile reinforcement. We select the components that make up our materials on the basis of the requirements of the end product and our customers’ processes.

Technical Specifications

Temperature resistant from -40°C to +250°C
Permeation resistant
Resistant to the fluids and gases normally used in the industry
Tear-resistant from 10 to 1,000 N/cm
Elongation from 2 to 30%

Benefits & Features

High flexibility and low hysteresis
Constant effective area
Short reaction time in the event of a change in pressure
Extremely resistant to pressure
Long service life
No frictional loss when starting or when in operation
No maintenance or lubrication

Applications

We can meet different requirements from various industries with a wide range of materials, processes and design options. From generating energy to transportation and consumption, our diaphragms are used in a diverse range of assemblies where they perform functions such as pumping, controlling, regulating and separating.

Automotive

Diaphragms - flat and shaped - are used in fuel supplying systems

controlling fuel flow through
damping vibration and pressure peaks
separating and transporting liquids and gases

Other applications include brakes, air condition, EGR and sound - engineering.

Supply engineering

In gas, water and air condition engineering (supply engineering) our diaphragm and elastomer coated fabrics perform key functions that ensure the comfort and well being of people. They contribute to the production of heat and hot water in private households as well as industrial settings. From generating energy to transporting and consumption, our diaphragms are used in various assemblies, such as actuators, pumps, pressure regulators and gas meters.

Medical equipment

Measuring and controlling highly sensitive procedures: thin but flexible diaphragms are ideal for this function in many applications. In medical equipment, e.g. in infusion pumps, the inclusion of protective diaphragms makes a contribution to protecting and saving life.

Aviation and aerospace industry

We also supply the aviation and aerospace industries with diaphragm materials. With our well organized quality management, we are approaching our target of zero - defect quality. This means extra reliability for our customers and for us.
