Sandpiper’s GODD Pump, the G30, is a gas-operated double-diaphragm that is designed to be powered by accessible natural gas. The AODD application driven by natural gas created a set of unique safety requirements that did not exist prior to its creation. A partnership between Sandpiper and Canadian Standards Association (CSA®) to lead the development of the first-ever safety certification for gas-operated double-diaphragm. The concerns surrounding the application is the potential of static electricity build up due to material and product movement which the release of these static discharge in these applications could lead to a sparking that could lead to a flash fire and potential explosion. The CSA specifications sets standards to prevent static electricity accumulations as well as standards for burst pressure; heat resistance, leakage and upper and lower temperature operation. The pumps are fully ground-able and are constructed of materials compatible with sweet and sour natural gas; Aluminum or 316 Stainless Steel wetted construction with Nitrile or Virgin PTFE diaphragms and check balls.
