plunger pumps are reciprocating pumps that use a plunger or piston to move media through a cylindrical chamber. The plunger or piston is actuated by a steam-powered, pneumatic, hydraulic, or electric actuator.
Rotary plunger pumps use a crank mechanism to create a reciprocating motion along an axis, which then builds pressure in a cylinder or power cylinder to force gas or liquid through the pump. The pressure in the chamber operates the valves at both the suction and discharge points.
This type of pump is often used to pump municipal and industrial wastewater，Commercially, plunger pumps are commonly used in cleaning, disinfection, pest control, agriculture, and other applications in their electrically powered equipment such as pressure washers, atomizers, and sprayers.
