I am in the process of building a TIG Cooler and had an old single diaphram Shurflo pump in my junk pile. It will make adequate flow and pressure but the pressure pulses were way too much to be tolerable for a TIG cooler. Several people suggested making an air over water damper but I did not think it would work well enough and thought that the air in the column would dissolve in the water and stop damping.
I made the damper out of a foot long piece of 2" ID tube and welded endcaps on it, drilled and tapped the endcaps. It really does solve the pulsation problem! Without the damper, the pressure gauge needle covered about 45 degrees of the scale. With the damper, there is no noticable vibration. It really surprises me how well it works. As for the air dissolving, I will have to play wth it for a while and see how that works out. Seeing how well this one works, I would probably be willing to spend money for a damper with a diaphram to keep the air from dissolving. A commercial damper costs about 1/3 of what a new pump does.
