PROCON 101b100F11BC Rotary Vane Pump, Brass, 100 GPH, EPDM/Nitrile, Standard-Non External Adjust

Procon 101B100F11BC rotary vane pump operates as a positive displacement pump, utilising vanes mounted on a rotor to generate either a vacuum or positive pressure within its chamber. This pump is employed for liquid transfer, refrigeration and beverage dispensing operations.

Features:

• This pump maintains a consistent flow rate while facing fluctuating pressures, making it ideal for precise and reliable fluid delivery.
• It has self-priming functionality for handling water and other fluids without manual intervention, streamlining the pumping process.
• This rotary vane pump is equipped with an internal relief valve, ensuring straightforward setup and enhanced operational safety.
• It has an integrated strainer for efficiently removing debris from the fluid, safeguarding downstream equipment and preventing clogging issues.
• This rotary vane pump features brass housing that resists corrosion on exposed surfaces, ensuring longevity and reliability in various operating conditions.
• It can be operated at temperatures ranging from -4 to 160 degrees F.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. How do I select the right size and capacity of a rotary vane pump for my specific application?

A. Consider factors like flow rate requirements, pressure range, fluid viscosity, temperature and the nature of the fluid being handled.

Q. How to maintain rotary vane pumps to ensure optimal performance?

A. Routine maintenance includes regular inspection, lubrication and replacement of worn-out parts like vanes and seals.

Q. How do rotary vane pumps compare to other types of pumps, such as centrifugal pumps?

A. Unlike centrifugal pumps, which rely on centrifugal force to move fluids, rotary vane pumps are positive displacement pumps that deliver a consistent flow rate regardless of pressure changes. They are ideal for handling viscous & other fluids precisely.
