Apparatus for Pumping a Fluid

advertisement:

There are no rotating or moving parts apart from bellows.

A fluid pump has been developed for mechanically pumped fluid loops for spacecraft thermal control. Lynntech’s technology utilizes a proprietary electrochemically driven pumping mechanism. Conventional rotodynamic and displacement pumps typically do not meet the stringent power and operational reliability requirements of space applications. Lynntech’s developmental pump is a highly efficient solid-state pump with essentially no rotating or moving components (apart from metal bellows).
