Abstract

See full text

A pump system includes: a first coupler that receives a common input feed and provides two input feeds of fluid being drawn into the pump system, a second coupler that receives two output feeds and provides a common output feed of the pumped fluid, and a third coupler that receives a common gas feed providing two gas feeds to drive the pump system; two pumps, each having an inlet to receive a respective input feed, an outlet to provide a respective output feed of the pumped fluid, and a gas inlet to receive a respective gas feed so as to cause pumping action to drive the pump; and a base for holding the couplers with straps for attaching the two pump. The common gas feed causes pumping action in the two pumps and provides a constant almost pulsation free flow.
