The Danfoss APP pump is a positive displacement axial piston pump designed specifically to pump low viscosity and corrosive fluids at high pressure. All wetted parts are in either duplex or superduplex stainless steel (SAF2205 and SAF2507) and the pump design is such that the internal lubrication is provided by the fluid itself, such that no oil lubrication and routine preventative maintenance is required. The pumps have either five or nine pistons, depending on pump size, and a specifically designed fixed valve plate which results in very low noise and smooth flow with insignificant pressure pulsations. Inlet and outlet pulsation dampeners are not required. The pumps are small and compact and are designed to be driven at normal electric motor synchronous speeds. The pumps are mounted direct to the motor via a suitable bellhousing and coupling. No belts, drive pulleys or tensioning systems are required. The entire pump motor assembly is mounted by the motor feet. Pump volumetric efficiency is as high as 99% with the overall efficiency exceeding 90%. Pump flow is proportional to speed with minimal variation due to changes in discharge pressure making these pumps ideal for use with variable speed drives.
