A plunger pump is a type of reciprocating pump that is equipped with a fixed high-pressure seal. Unlike a piston pump, it has a smooth cylindrical plunger that glides over the seal, giving it a unique feature. This design allows the plunger pump to deliver higher pressure than the piston pump, making it ideal for high-pressure applications.
Both piston and plunger pumps use a chamber to suck and pressurize fluids. However, it differs in the way this chamber expands and constricts. In reciprocating pumps, such as plunger pumps, the chamber expands and constricts as a result of the up-and-down or back-to-front motion of the plunger, rather than a circular or rotating motion.
A plunger pump is also referred to as a high-viscosity pump, high-pressure pump, or high-pressure pump because it can generate high pressure while being able to pump both solid and viscous media. These reciprocating pumps are commonly employed in pumping industrial and municipal wastewater.
Plunger pumps are known for their ability to generate higher amounts of pressure compared to their piston counterparts. This makes them an ideal choice for applications where a high-pressure flow is required.
Another advantage of plunger pumps is that their performance is not greatly affected by changes in flow rate or pressure. This means that they are highly reliable and can maintain consistent output even under varying conditions.
In addition to their pressure capabilities, plunger pumps are also capable of pumping abrasive and slurry substances. This makes them suitable for use in industries such as mining, where the transport of these materials is necessary.
Furthermore, these pumps are capable of moving high-viscosity fluids and heavy substances, making them ideal for use in applications such as oil and gas drilling where thick substances need to be pumped.
Lastly, plunger pumps have the added benefit of being self-priming. This means that they can start pumping without the need for external priming, which can save time and effort in setting up the system.

Plunger pumps are a crucial piece of equipment in various industries due to their ability to provide high pressure.
In the Oil & Gas Industry, plunger pumps provide high pressure to pump various fluids underground into oil wells. As a result, they are common in oil drilling.
Plunger pumps are additionally used in the Aerospace Industry for hydraulic control systems as they are capable of providing high hydraulic pressures. Consequently, these pumps allow for the control of various aircraft instruments.
In the Water Treatment Industry, plunger pumps are a crucial piece of equipment specifically for the reverse osmosis treatment of water. The pumps provide high pressure to force the water through the membrane to purify it.
Plunger pumps are highly useful in the Wastewater Industry, particularly for pumping screened raw or primary sewage when large heads are required. The inlet and outlet valves must be appropriate for handling solids.
Within the Mining Industry, many streams are difficult to pump due to being abrasive or containing solids. However, plunger pumps are well-suited to handle these fluids (with the matching valve design and plunger material) as they can handle abrasive fluids.
The high discharge pressure of plunger pumps is an asset in the Power Generation Industry. They can, for example, supply water or chemicals into high-pressure steam drums.
