EvolutionX – The Next Generation of AODD Pump Performance

In industries where compressed air usage directly impacts operating costs, improving pump efficiency can make a significant difference. The Sandpiper EvolutionX AODD Pump has been engineered to help businesses reduce air consumption, lower maintenance time and improve overall pump performance across demanding industrial applications.

Developed from more than 55 years of Sandpiper engineering and fluid handling expertise, the EvolutionX represents a major step forward in air operated double diaphragm (AODD) pump technology. Designed for mining, chemical processing, food and beverage, wastewater treatment and general industrial operations, the EvolutionX delivers an average 20% increase in air efficiency across the entire performance curve compared to comparable pumps.

Do More with Less Air

Compressed air is one of the most expensive utilities in many industrial operations. The EvolutionX helps reduce those costs by using significantly less air while maintaining strong pump performance and reliability.

With up to 20% better air efficiency, operators can lower energy consumption without sacrificing flow rates or operational capability. The pump also achieves one of the highest flow rates available in a 1" AODD pump, delivering up to 63 GPM (238 lpm).

For engineering, maintenance and procurement teams, this means:

• Lower operating costs
• Reduced compressed air demand
• Improved system efficiency
• Reliable performance in demanding applications

Designed for Faster Maintenance

Downtime can quickly impact production and maintenance budgets. The EvolutionX has been specifically designed to simplify servicing and reduce maintenance time.

The air distribution system can typically be serviced in around five minutes, helping teams return equipment to operation faster. Maintenance is further simplified with:

• 50% fewer fasteners
• Uniform wet side bolt sizes and lengths
• Easy access to air side components with only four bolts removed
• Integrated stand-off feet for improved stability during servicing

These practical design improvements make routine maintenance faster, safer and easier for operators and technicians.

Flexible for a Wide Range of Applications

The EvolutionX is available in centre ported, end ported and dual ported configurations, allowing greater installation flexibility across different systems and plant layouts.

Its universal ANSI flanged manifold design also allows discharge orientation adjustments to suit changing process requirements.

Built with durable non-metallic materials including polypropylene and PVDF, the pump is suitable for corrosive and demanding industrial environments. Multiple elastomer options including Santoprene, PTFE, FKM, Nitrile and Neoprene provide compatibility with a broad range of fluids and chemicals.

ATEX-rated versions are also available for hazardous operating environments.

Typical Applications

The EvolutionX is well suited to:

• Chemical transfer and dosing
• Corrosive fluid handling
• Water and wastewater treatment
• Mining and mineral processing
• Paints, coatings and inks
• Drum unloading and tank transfer
• Fluid recirculation and batching
• General industrial process transfer

A Smarter Replacement and Upgrade Option

The EvolutionX has been designed with interchangeable mounting feet compatible with existing Sandpiper pumps and many competitor models. This helps simplify upgrades and replacements while reducing installation complexity and downtime.

For businesses looking to improve efficiency, reduce air consumption and simplify maintenance, the EvolutionX offers a strong alternative for both new projects and replacement applications.
