A plunger pump is a type of reciprocating pump with a fixed high-pressure seal and a smooth cylindrical plunger that slides over the seal. These two features of the plunge pump make it different from the piston pump. It can produce high pressure than a piston pump. Therefore, it may use for high-pressure applications.
Piston and plunger pumps use a chamber that expands and constricts to suck and pressurize the fluid. Because these are reciprocating pumps, the chamber expands and constricts due to the reciprocating motion of the plunger (upward and downward; back and forth) instead of a circular (rotating) movement.
A plunger pump is also known as high viscosity pump, high-pressure pump or high-pressure pump because they provide a high pumping pressure. These pumps can also pump both solid and viscous media. These reciprocating pumps use for pumping industrial and municipal wastewater.
Compared to piston pumps, plunger pumps have the capability to generate higher pressure. This makes them a great choice for applications that require more pressure, such as high-pressure cleaning or oil and gas production.
In addition, plunger pumps are less affected by changes in flow rate and pressure, which means their performance remains consistent even under varying operating conditions.
Another advantage of plunger pumps is their ability to pump abrasives and slurries. This makes them ideal for applications that involve handling of fluids with high solids content, such as mining or wastewater treatment.
Moreover, plunger pumps are capable of moving high-viscosity fluids and heavy substances. This makes them an excellent choice for industries dealing with viscous fluids such as printing, food processing, and chemical production.
Finally, plunger pumps have the self-priming ability which means they can start pumping without the need for external priming. This helps to save time and labor costs.

Plunger pumps are essential pieces of machinery in a variety of industries. They are used for their ability to provide high pressure for pumping fluids. The following industries are just a few examples of where plunger pumps are commonly used:
In the oil and gas industry, plunger pumps are necessary for pumping various fluids underground into oil wells. This is a critical process in oil drilling, and as such, plunger pumps are commonly used to provide the high pressure needed.
Plunger pumps are also used in hydraulic control systems within the aerospace industry. These pumps provide the high hydraulic pressures needed to control various aircraft elements.
When it comes to the reverse osmosis treatment of water, plunger pumps are an essential piece of equipment. These pumps provide the high pressure necessary to force water through a membrane, which purifies it and makes it safe for consumption.
In the wastewater industry, plunger pumps are incredibly useful for pumping screened raw or primary sewage. This is especially true in situations where large heads are required. However, it's important to note that inlet and outlet valves need to be suitable for handling solids.
Within the mining industry, many streams are difficult to pump because they are abrasive or contain solids. But plunger pumps are well-suited to handle abrasive fluids, given the right valve design and plunger material.
Finally, the power generation industry relies heavily on plunger pumps because of their ability to deliver high discharge pressure. These pumps can supply water or chemicals into high-pressure steam drums, making them invaluable in power plant settings.
