Equilibar Diaphragm Selection Page

Ever wondered why your Equilibar Application Engineer recommended a Polyimide diaphragm instead of a stainless steel diaphragm? Because our back pressure
regulator has only one moving part, the choice of diaphragm selection is complex by necessity.

However, our new Diaphragm Selection page sheds a little more information on the diaphragm selection process. If you are the kind of person who likes to know “why” this
page might be for you.

Stainless bpr for preventing pump push-through

BIOPROCESSING FOCUS: Preventing pump push-through with a BPR

Maintaining the purity and integrity of biological substances is one of the most important aspects of bioprocessing applications. While sanitary pumps are designed to minimize contamination risks, pump push-through flow remains a significant challenge. Preventing pump push-through is key to maintaining quality. Pump push-through flow occurs when head pressure at the pump inlet pushes fluids Read More
