A diaphragm pump includes a transfer chamber containing hydraulic fluid and a pumping chamber for fluid to be pumped. A connecting assembly includes a plunger extending to the transfer chamber. A diaphragm connects to the connecting assembly and separates the transfer chamber and the pumping chamber. A pressure protection device mounts to the connecting assembly and is configured to seal against the transfer chamber when pressure differential, including reverse pressure differential, across the diaphragm exceeds a predetermined value. The pressure protection device is intermediate the plunger and the diaphragm and supports the diaphragm when there is excess pressure differential across the diaphragm.

A fluid connection system for a pump or other fluid handling device includes adapters for connecting fluid lines and fittings of different diameters to a fluid port. The system includes a sliding quick disconnect element with an adapter inserting internally of the quick disconnect element into a bore of the port. The adapter includes a cylindrical body with an outer annular groove that receives an O-ring for sealing against the bore of the port. The adapter body includes a first portion having a first inner diameter and a second portion having a second portion having a second diameter for receiving the fitting from the fluid line. The quick disconnect element receives the adapter internally of the quick disconnect to retain the adapter. The adapters having different diameter internal cavities and may be interchanged for using the same port for fluid lines of different sizes and diameters.

A fluid device includes a housing and a rotor assembly disposed in the housing. The rotor assembly includes a core and a coating. The core has a first surface, an oppositely disposed second surface and an outer peripheral surface that extends between the first and second surfaces. The core defines a bore that extends through the first and second surfaces. The coating coats at least a portion of the core. The coating is a water-swellable plastic material.
