A high pressure, positive displacement piston pump for pumping a corrosive fluid is disclosed. The pump includes a pump body having a plurality of cylinders therein, each provided with an inlet and an outlet. A suitable one-way valve device is disposed in a connection between the inlet and the cylinder, and another oppositely directed one way-valve device is disposed in a connection betweenn the outlet and each cylinder. A piston is disposed in each cylinder for reciprocal movement therein in order to pump the fluuid from the inlet to the outlet. A cam device moves each piston reciprocally and includes a rotating member having a first camming surface which is cylically rotated adjacent an end of each piston. At the end of each piston, a second camming surface is provided which engages the first camming surface. A cooling system is also provided for cooling and lubricating the first and second camming surfaces with a coolant liquid in contact with the bearing surfaces within the pump. The coolant liquid can be and in the preferred embodiment is the corrosive liquid being pumped. A shaft is preferably used for rotating the rotating member and a suitable journaling device is provided for the shaft. The shaft is also non-corrodible, and the coolant liquid also cools and lubricates the journaling device as well as the shaft.

A high pressure positive displacement piston pump for pumping a corrosive aqueous fluid, comprising a pump body including plate means, said plate means comprising an outer plate and an inner valve plate mounted thereto, said pump body having inlet means, means for supplying the fluid to said inlet means under pressure, a plurality of cylinders mounted therein, an axially rotating member in said pump body, a first plate mounted to said rotating member for joint rotation therewith, said first plate having a first camming surface, a piston in each of said cylinders, each of said pistons having a piston head at one end thereof and a second camming surface at its opposite end, said piston head being located in a piston head chamber at one end of its said cylinder, each of said second camming surfaces riding against said first camming surface whereby rotation of said rotating member periodically overcomes the opposing force of the fluid pressure acting against each of said piston heads and thereby causes each of said piston heads to reciprocate axially in its said piston head chamber, said inlet means including an exposed inlet port in said outer plate, a plurality of inlet one-way valve means in said valve plate corresponding to the number of said cylinders with each of said inlet valve means being associated with a respective one of said cylinders, an inlet channel creating flow communication between said inlet port and said plurality of said inlet valve means, each of said inlet valve means being in flow communication with a respective piston head chamber, an exposed outlet port in said valve place corresponding to the number of said cylinders with each of said outlet valve means being associated with a respective one of said cylinders, an outlet channel creating flow communication between said outlet port and said plurality of said outlet valve means, each of said outlet valve means communicating with a respective piston head chamber, a corrosive fluid path formed by the elements of said inlet port and aid inlet channel and said inlet valve means and said piston head chamber and said outlet valve means and said outlet channel as said outlet port, of all of said elements of said pump body which comprise said corrosive fluid path being made of a material which is non-corrodible in the aqueous fluid, a lubricating and cooling means for lubricating and cooling said first and second camming surfaces, said lubricating and cooling means including a liquid coolant and lubricant in contact with said first and second camming surfaces, the fluid being pumped being the same as said liquid coolant and lubricant, said lubricating and cooling means including a coolant passageway in flow communication with the corrosive aqueous fluid whereby the fluid supplied to said inlet port also flows into said coolant passageway, said coolant passageway communicating with said first and said second camming surfaces, a coolant outlet passage downstream from said first and said second camming surfaces and exiting from said pump body, said second camming surface being a removable insert at the end of said piston, and at least one of said first and second camming surfaces being formed of an organic material.
