PROCON 112A100F11AA Rotary Vane Pump, Clamp-On, 3/8 Inch NPT, 100 GPH, Brass

Procon 112A100F11AA rotary vane pump has vanes on a rotating rotor inside a cylindrical housing and operates as a positive displacement pump. The vane creates a variable chamber, drawing fluid into the pump's suction side & compressing it through the outlet. It offers a steady flow, self-priming capabilities and versatility in handling liquids & gases. It is used in beverage dispensing, coffee machines, water purification, cooling systems & industrial fluid transfer applications.

Working Mechanism:

• In a rotary vane pump, a rotor rotates inside a cylindrical casing, causing the vanes to move outward, creating a vacuum that draws fluid or gas from the inlet into the expanding space.
• The vanes then retract, compressing the fluid or gas before it is expelled through the outlet.
• This seamless cycle of suction, compression & discharge ensures a continuous & steady flow of fluids or gases within the pump.

Features:

• This rotary vane pump features brass construction for corrosion resistance & durability.
• It is designed with a port hole size of NPT 3/8 inches, allowing for easy connection to compatible fittings & pipelines.
• This pump offers clamp-on mounting to ensure a secure & convenient installation and has a double flat drive configuration for efficient & reliable power transmission during operation.
• It has a non-balanced ceramic / carbon seal type to ensure leakproof operation and reduced wear for extended pump life.
• This pump incorporates a bypass-Ultem valve type, providing efficient fluid control in specific applications.

Compatible Accessories:

• Procon 1113 V-band clamp: This band ensures a secure connection between cylindrical parts, delivering a dependable and tight seal suitable for diverse applications.
