What is Single Acting Pump?

A single-acting pump is a type of pump that performs suction and discharge during one stroke of its piston or plunger. In this pump, fluid is drawn into the chamber during one movement and expelled during the return stroke. The pumping action occurs only in one direction, leading to intermittent flow. Single-acting pumps are commonly used in applications where simplicity and lower flow rates are sufficient, such as in hand-operated pumps and certain hydraulic systems.
