ARO Classic Style 1/2-Inch Non-Metallic Diaphragm Pump

ARO Classic Style 1/2-inch Non-Metallic Diaphragm Pumps provide flow rates up to 13 GPM in a compact design. Available material, porting, and manifold configurations support different fluids, connection layouts, and installation requirements.

The line includes center, end, dual inlet and outlet, and swivel-top manifold options. ARO’s unbalanced air-valve design supports no-stall operation, while bolted and modular construction supports fluid containment and easier service access.

MCE can help compare configurations based on fluid compatibility, flow and pressure requirements, air supply, connection layout, and maintenance needs.

Product Features

  • Flow rates up to 13 GPM
  • Compact 1/2-inch design
  • Multiple material and porting configurations
  • Center, end, dual inlet and outlet, and swivel-top manifold options
  • Unbalanced air-valve design for no-stall operation
  • Bolted construction
  • Modular design for service access
  • Configurations for OEM applications

Additional ARO Air-Operated Double Diaphragm Pumps

MCE also provides access to the complete ARO air-operated double diaphragm pump line, with compact, metallic, and non-metallic options available in multiple sizes and material configurations.

When the Classic Style pump does not match the required flow, fluid compatibility, connection layout, or operating conditions, our team can help compare other ARO pump options. MCE can also assist with replacement pumps, genuine ARO parts, repair kits, and accessories.

Choosing the Right ARO Pump

ARO selection

What We Consider Before Making a Pump Recommendation

Pump selection involves more than matching a connection size or maximum flow rate. Fluid properties, operating conditions, installation requirements, and maintenance goals can all affect which pump and material configuration is appropriate.

MCE can help review:

  • Fluid properties and material compatibility
  • Flow, pressure, suction, and air-supply requirements
  • Temperature, viscosity, and solids content
  • Connections, installation space, and duty cycle
  • Maintenance needs and existing pump information

This application-focused approach helps customers select products based on the needs of the process and the larger system.

Industries Using ARO Diaphragm Pumps

ARO diaphragm pumps support fluid-handling applications across a range of industrial markets, including:

OEM & Packaged Systems

Chemical Processing

Petrochemical

Paints and Coatings

Oil & Gas

Mining

Construction

Ceramics

The appropriate pump, size, and material configuration depend on the specific fluid, operating conditions, and installation requirements.

MCE's Complete Pump and System Support

MCE helps customers evaluate more than the individual pump. Our team can review the application, identify an appropriate ARO pump or replacement, and help coordinate the parts and surrounding components needed for installation, operation, and maintenance.

Depending on the application, that support may include genuine ARO parts and repair kits, valves, hose and fittings, air-preparation equipment, filtration, instrumentation, controls, motors, drives, and power transmission products. Bringing these capabilities together can reduce coordination between suppliers and help customers select compatible products for the larger fluid-handling system.

Application Guidance

MCE helps review the fluid, operating conditions, installation, and performance requirements before recommending a pump or configuration.

Complete System Perspective

MCE can also support the valves, hose, fittings, pneumatics, filtration, instrumentation, controls, and other components surrounding the pump.

Frequently Asked Questions About ARO Pumps

What is an air-operated double diaphragm pump?
An air-operated double diaphragm pump uses compressed air to move fluid through alternating diaphragm chambers. These pumps are commonly used for transfer, circulation, filling, batching, and other industrial fluid-handling applications.
When should I consider a non-metallic diaphragm pump?
A non-metallic diaphragm pump may be appropriate when fluid compatibility, pump size, connection layout, or installation conditions make material selection especially important. MCE can review the fluid, flow and pressure requirements, air supply, and available pump configurations to help determine whether a non-metallic ARO pump fits the application.
What information does MCE need to help select an ARO pump?
Helpful information includes the fluid being pumped, required flow and discharge pressure, temperature, viscosity, solids content, suction conditions, available compressed-air supply, connection requirements, installation space, and maintenance goals. An existing model or part number can also help.
Can MCE help replace an existing pump?
Yes. Provide the manufacturer, model number, part number, specifications, or photos of the existing equipment. MCE can help review replacement pump options and compatible configurations.
Can MCE help with ARO replacement parts and repair kits?
Yes. MCE can help identify genuine ARO replacement parts, repair kits, accessories, and related pump components based on the model and application.
Where does MCE provide ARO pump support?
MCE provides ARO pump, parts, and application support to customers across the United States.
