The Debem Aisiboxer 02 Air Operated Diaphragm Pump is an Italian manufactured, FDA approved AODD pump. Thanks to its various hygienic design benefits, this air operated double diaphragm pump is designed for the food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries where a food grade pump is required to prevent contamination of the pumped fluid.
The Aisiboxer AODD pump is made from mechanically polished stainless steel (AISI 316) to a roughness of < 0.8μm and benefits from a 360⁰ rotating quick emptying system to aid Clean in Place as a hygienic pump. If you are looking for a 3A approved solution, we offer the Debem Saniboxer which has the additional benefit of a diaphragm rupture sensor to turn off the pump in such an event to prevent contamination of the product.
This Debem range of sanitary air operated diaphragm pumps are what we like to describe as “Fit and forget” solutions. Thanks to their low maintenance, long service life and little manual intervention required, the air operated diaphragm pumps can just be left to do their job.
Features of the Debem Aisiboxer 02 AODD Pump:
- FDA approved for the safe handling of liquid food stuffs and products in the Pharmaceutical and Cosmetics industry
- Made from mechanically polished SS 316 to a roughness of < 0.8μm
- Stainless Steel stand with 360⁰ rotating quick emptying system to aid Clean in Place and anti-vibration feet
- Patented “Easy-Clean” valve seat system prevents the formation of residue and allowing fast and easy cleaning.
- Special hygienic design in PTFE with EPDM supports. There are no fixing nuts and the diaphragm profile is such that it avoids residue deposits and makes cleaning easier.
- Can be run dry and can pump long distances without damage, making them unaffected by process stops and pauses in the production line.
- Self-priming capabilities of up to 4m for difficult suction conditions
- Can handle viscosities up to 15000 cp (depending upon installation)
- Patented stall protection - If there is a pressure imbalance the pump will continue running without stalling, reducing downtime and time consuming manual intervention.
- Easily adjustable flow - By amending the air inlet pressure, you can efficiently meet the exact flow requirements of an installation/process.
- Wide range of uses - Can handle viscous fluids with low moisture content, solids up to 7mm and aggressive chemicals due to the various diaphragm materials.
- Low cost to maintain - Long life diaphragms designed for more than 50M cycles and a lot fewer internal wearing parts to maintain compared to equivalent AODD pump models.
- Fine tuning of motor speed at a constant pressure.
- Actuated via a non-lubricated air system

Debem AISI-BOXER AODD pumps have a large range of benefits that make them a “fit and forget” solution ideal for many hygienic processes.
- FDA approved - Approved as a food grade solution for food, drink and pharmaceutical applications.
- Clean in Place - 360⁰ rotating quick emptying system and patented “Easy-Clean” valve seat system which locks the ball into position whilst preventing the formation of residue
- Low cost to maintain - Long life diaphragms designed for more than 50M cycles and a lot fewer internal wearing parts to maintain compared to equivalent AODD pump models.
- Easily adjustable flow - By amending the air inlet pressure, you can efficiently meet the exact flow requirements of an installation/process.
- Leak-free – It’s seal-less design makes the Aisi-Boxer air operated diaphragm pump a much cleaner operating solution
- Patented stall protection - If there is a pressure imbalance the pump will continue running without stalling, reducing downtime and time consuming manual intervention.
- Dry run capabilities – Can dry run without damage, making unaffected by pauses in a production line or instances where the operator has left them running
- Self-priming up to 6m – Do not need an additional manual priming device to enable them to draw long distances.
- Versatile - Can handle all matters of liquid food products including viscous sauces and syrups, solid content e.g. juices with pulp and additives due to the various diaphragm materials.
AODD pumps are a versatile type of pump design, able to transfer a large range of high and low viscosity fluids thanks to the multiple materials diaphragms are constructed of. The Debem Aisi-Boxer air operated diaphragm pumps, as their name suggests, are food grade solutions approved as safe for use with food and pharmaceutical products by FDA. Their pumping mechanism makes them suitable for most liquid food products including those containing solids and shear sensitive fluids. Thanks to running off air supply, they are often chosen as a pumping solution in hazardous environments where it isn't safe to have a mains electrical supply for example in a brewery or distillery.

FAQs
The pump is made up of two chambers. As the air forces the diaphragm to move in to the one chamber it forces the fluid inside into the outlet, whilst the other chamber fills up with fluid drawn from the inlet. As the diaphragm moves back into the opposite chamber, the fluid now in that chamber is forced out and the other chamber begins to fill up.
Ensuring compatibility with the fluid being pumped is a vital part of AODD pump specification to avoid swelling, erosion and even melting of the casing, diaphragm and balls. Our AODDs are available in PP, Aluminium or Stainless Steel and diaphragms in PTFE, EPDM, NBR, Hytrel and Santoprene. Upon disclosure of the fluid you are handling we will establish the best solution.
Yes - The Debem Food Boxer is constructed of food grade 316 Stainless Steel and PTFE, and the Saniboxer is 3A approved with 360 degree quick emptying system for CIP. The standard Boxer models however are reserved for non-food applications.
Thanks to the absence of a mechanical seal that needs cooling and lubricating, AODDs are able to run dry or against a closed discharge indefinitely without causing damage to the pump.
AODD pumps are very versatile in their ability to handle aggressive fluids, solids and viscous liquids, and their seal-less design meaning less leaks makes them ideal for hazardous fluids. They are however limited to the fact that they require a compressed air supply to be on site to operate the pump.
There are four common installation types. 1. Above the fluid as it is self priming. 2. Drum/tank mounted 3. Immersed (with an exhaustn tube vented to the atmoshpere) 4. Below the fluid with flooded suction
Yes! Whereas with an electric motor you would fit a variable speed drive, with an AODD you can simply adjust the air inlet pressure to control the flow you receive the other end.
Yes, air operated diaphragm pumps have excellent suction capabilities without need for a manual priming device.
Yes. Thanks to the absence of any close fitting or rotating parts, AODD pumps can handle solid content in fluids.
To ensure you get the correct Debem spare parts, we need to identify the exact Debem pump model you have. Please advise us of the model number and serial number which can be found on the pump label which is usually on the top of the pump body.
Castle Pumps can supply all Debem pump parts detailed on the spare parts list including diaphragms, balls, ball seats and casings.
Debem AODD pump models are available with additional accessories including air regulator, pulsation dampener to reduce vibrations and provide a smoother flow, trolley, batch meter for preset transfer, pump cycle counter and basket strainer.
As well as a diaphragm that can run for 50 million cycles before replacement is expected, Debem AODD pumps have a lot fewer internal parts; 30 versus a typical 72 in other models.
Yes! Debem Air operated diaphragm pumps are approved to ATEX Zone 2 as standard, with Zone 1 available upon request.
All Debem Boxer and Food boxer air operated diaphragm pumps have an integrated patented stall protection. This enables the pump to run under a pressure imbalance to reduce downtime and limit manual operation
