AOD Pumps: The Industrial Workhorse Every Site Needs – 5 Powerful Reasons to Choose MultiTorque
When you need reliability, portability, and the ability to pump anything from chemicals to slurry, there’s one clear choice: the AOD pump.
Also known as air-operated diaphragm pumps, these rugged machines thrive in demanding industrial environments. At MultiTorque, we supply, service, and customize AOD pumps for Australian mining, construction, dewatering, and processing clients who demand performance without compromise.
What Is an AOD Pump?
An AOD pump is a type of positive displacement pump powered by compressed air. It uses a pair of flexible diaphragms to pump fluids, making it ideal for:
-
Abrasive slurries
-
High-viscosity fluids
-
Flammable or hazardous liquids
-
Solids-laden wastewater
-
Corrosive chemical transfer
Because AOD pumps don’t require electricity, they’re perfect for hazardous zones, remote locations, and portable setups where power supply is limited.

4. Why AOD Pumps Dominate Harsh Conditions
Compared to electric pumps, AOD pumps are low-maintenance, self-priming, and dry-run capable. They shine in unpredictable, messy, and abrasive conditions common in:
-
Mineral processing
-
Drilling and blasting
-
Civil and mining dewatering
-
Chemical and fuel transfer
-
Agricultural wastewater
And thanks to their air-powered nature, they’re explosion-safe and portable—two major advantages for heavy-duty sites.
