Electromagnetic diaphragm pumps are often referred to as linear air pumps. Most people would recognize them as aquarium air pumps; they look like a toaster. They use an electromagnetic system that oscillates the diaphragm and creates a steady flow of air. They are simple but very durable and this is the quietest way to create air pressure. But silence brings limitations and they provide no more than 6-7 psi or 0.41-0.48 bar pressure for larger models and most operate at a maximum of 3-4 psi or 0.21-0.28 bar.
With the right type of air diffuser, they are ideal for shallow water gardens. We have sold many diaphragm pumps over the years and the most common comment that comes up is that people are drawn to their quiet operation. However, they can sometimes be wrong about the true depth of their water basins. Picking the wrong compressor can lead to its diaphragms wearing out faster and causing it to break constantly. Trust our salespeople to provide you with the right system.
CanadianPond.ca offers you a wide choice of compressors for aeration. It is possible to make energy efficient choices while avoiding compromises.
Online sales are typically for people with basic knowledge of these compressors. Contact us if you have any doubts about which model to choose!
