As anyone familiar with the function of an AODD pump can attest, pump diaphragms will fail. When they do, process fluid is expelled through the pump’s air exhaust port, spilling into the environment. Spills can result in significant expense due to lost product, hazardous material cleanup, EPA reporting, and system downtime. More importantly, spills resulting from pump diaphragm failure put employees at risk of serious injury.
SpillStop is a fully pneumatic device that attaches directly to the exhaust of an AODD pump. When the pump’s diaphragm fails, process fluid that would have been expelled out through the pump’s exhaust is captured in the SpillStop’s housing receptacle. The contained fluid raises the internal float to automatically shut down the failed pump.
SpillStop can be equipped with an optional warning alarm whistle, pneumatic-to-electric switch to power warning lights or connect to a SCADA panel, and additional pump shutoff valves for multiple pumps, high suction tank applications, and/or backup pump startup.
- Available in a variety of materials and configurations with custom models on request.
- Compatible with all AODD pumps from 1/4" (6.35mm) to 4” (1001.6mm).
- Save thousands of dollars in product loss, system downtime, hazardous cleanup, and EPA reporting.
- Attaches directly to AODD pump exhaust—no need for extra pipe.
- Fully pneumatic—no batteries or electronics required.
- Optional warning whistle/lights, connect to SCADA panel, or backup pump startup.
- Proudly made in the USA.

CAN YOU AFFORD NOT TO HAVE IT?
Unmonitored spills are very expensive considering the costs of product loss, system downtime, hazardous cleanup, and EPA reporting. By preventing a single spill, SPILLSTOP will more than pay for itself in product savings alone.
For example, a 3,000 gallon spill was prevented after SPILLSTOP units were installed by a major paint manufacturer on all AODD pumps in their transfer facility. Furthermore, SPILLSTOP prevented multiple spills when pump diaphragms ruptured at a US chemical plant, saving $20,000 to $100,000 per spill in hazardous waste cleanup costs.
