Overview

“DJ pump” air operated diaphragm pumps provide a reliable and efficient solution for the production of household and personal cleaning products (Detergent and Cleaning Production). From raw material transfer to final filling, our AODD pumps handle viscous, foamy, and chemically aggressive liquids with ease. Designed for durability and gentle fluid handling, “DJ pump”pumps help detergent manufacturers achieve consistent product quality, reduced maintenance, and safer, cleaner operations.

Reliable AODD Pumps for Detergent and Cleaning Production

Air operated diaphragm pumps (AODD pumps) are widely used in the manufacturing of household and personal cleaning products such as laundry detergents, dishwashing liquids, hand soaps, and shower gels.
These products often contain viscous, foaming, and sometimes corrosive ingredients, making AODD pumps an ideal solution for reliable, safe, and gentle transfer.

Benefits in Detergent and Cleaning Production

Handles viscous, foamy, and corrosive liquids
Safe for flammable or sensitive ingredients
Dry-running and self-priming capabilities
Easy maintenance and long diaphragm life
Reliable performance in both batch and continuous systems

Typical Production Process

The general production steps for liquid detergents and cleaning products include:

Raw material storage and transfer
Mixing and blending
Dilution and adjustment
Filling and packaging
Cleaning and recovery (CIP)

AODD pumps can be applied in every stage of this process.

Applications in Detergent and Cleaning Production

Process Step	Media	Pump Function	Recommended Models	Key Benefits
Raw Material Transfer	Surfactant, Acid/Alkali	Suction & Transfer	S15 / S20 (PP/PVDF)	Chemical resistant, self-priming
Mixing / Circulation	Semi-finished detergent	Uniform mixing	HDF20 / S20	Low shear, gentle handling
Product Transfer	Laundry / Dishwashing Liquid	Transfer to filling	S15 / S20	Smooth flow, no foaming
Filling Feed	Final product	Stable feeding	S07 / S10	Easy control, leak-free
CIP / Waste	Cleaning / Waste Liquid	Cleaning & Recovery	SB1½ / SB2	Durable, corrosion resistant

1. Raw Material Transfer

Media: Surfactant concentrates (SLES, LAS, AES, CAPB), fragrances, thickeners, alkali, acids, and solvents.

Excellent chemical resistance (PP, PVDF, or SS316)
Strong self-priming ability
Handles high-viscosity and shear-sensitive fluids
Recommended Models: DJ-S15 / DJ-S20 / DJ-SB Series (Polypropylene or Stainless Steel)

2. Mixing and Recirculation

Media: Intermediate detergent batches, fragrance blends, color additives.
Function: Circulate liquid within mixing tanks for uniform blending.
Benefits:

Smooth and gentle transfer, no product foaming
Adjustable flow and pressure for precise control
Recommended Models: DJ-HDF20 Heavy Duty Flap Valve Series

3. Finished Product Transfer

Media: Laundry detergent, dishwashing liquid, shampoo, shower gel.
Function: Transfer finished products to storage tanks or filling lines.
Pump Features:

Handles viscous, foamy liquids without damage
Capable of dry running without failure
Sanitary and easy to clean
Recommended Models: S15 / S20 / S30 Non-Metallic Series (PP or Stainless Steel with PTFE or EPDM diaphragms)

4. Filling Line Feeding

Media: Filtered final products.
Function: Deliver product to filling machines with stable, pulse-free flow.
Advantages:

Air-powered for accurate start/stop control
No mechanical seals or leakage
