Diaphragm Pumps
Piston Pumps
Others
Diaphragm pumps represent the largest market segment
The report has provided a detailed breakup and analysis of the market based on the type. This includes diaphragm pumps, piston pumps, and others. According to the report, diaphragm pumps represented the largest segment. Diaphragm pumps are known for their enhanced reliability and precision in delivering fluids in a wide range of industries. They operate using a flexible diaphragm that moves back and forth, while creating a chamber to draw in and expel the fluid. This design ensures that the fluid remains isolated from the mechanical components and prevents contamination and leaks. These pumps are especially valued for their ability to handle corrosive, abrasive, and viscous fluids with ease, which makes them suitable for applications in chemical processing, water treatment, and the oil and gas industry.
