PROCON 113A100F31XX Rotary Vane Pump, Clamp-On, 3/8 Inch NPT, 100 GPH, Stainless Steel

Procon 113A100F31XX rotary vane pump uses rotating vanes within a chamber to move fluid or gas between the inlet and outlet, either creating a vacuum or generating pressure. It is useful in vacuum packaging, air conditioning systems and laboratory processes like filtration & distillation.

Working Mechanism:

• Procon rotary vane pump works by using rotating vanes or blades to create chambers between the vanes and the pump casing.
• As the rotor turns, the vanes slide in and out of their slots due to centrifugal force.
• During the suction phase, the expanding chambers create a vacuum, drawing in the fluid through the inlet.
• In the compression phase, the decreasing chambers compress the fluid, increasing its pressure and pushing it towards the outlet.

Features:

• Procon 113A100F31XX rotary vane pump provides consistent flows at pressure up to 250 psi and is self-priming.
• It has stainless steel housing to tackle the corrosive nature of fluids and avoid corrosion.
• This rotary vane pump can handle temperatures ranging from -4 to 160 degrees F.
• It has EPDM / nitrile elastomer to obtain a wear-resistant seal.

Compatible Accessories:

• Procon Procon 1113 V-Band Clamp: This stainless steel clamp makes it easier for users to connect hoses to the pump.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. How does altitude affect the performance of a rotary vane pump?

A. At higher altitudes, the air density decreases, which can impact the pump's performance. It may result in reduced pumping capacity and may require adjustments or considerations when operating the pump in high-altitude environments.

Q. How do I maintain Procon 113A100F31XX rotary vane pump?

A. Regular maintenance involves inspecting and replacing worn-out vanes, cleaning filters, checking oil levels and ensuring that the pump is properly lubricated.

Q. What safety measures should be considered when operating a rotary vane pump?

A. When operating a rotary vane pump, ensure proper grounding, avoid exposure to hazardous substances and use protective equipment when necessary.
