Design Features of Reciprocating Plunger Pumps

The RDP series of Reciprocating Plunger Pumps are suitable for handling a variety of liquids for nuclear applications. The RDP pump series are a type of positive displacement pump where a smooth cylindrical plunger slides through the seal, making it different from piston pumps and allowing higher pressures.
