RECIPROCATING PISTON PUMP

Abstract:

A pump system includes a pump assembly and a pump controller. The pump assembly includes a housing defining a first volume and a second volume separated by a divider, a first piston dividing the first volume into a first chamber and a second chamber, a second piston dividing the second volume into a third chamber and a fourth chamber, and a piston rod coupling the first piston and the second piston such that a movement of the first piston causes an equal movement of the second piston. The pump controller is configured to alternately supply a first fluid to the second chamber and the fourth chamber to cause the first piston and the second piston to reciprocate within the housing.
