PROCON 112A035F11CA Rotary Vane Pump, Clamp-On, 3/8 Inch NPT, 35 GPH, Brass

Procon 112A035F11CA rotary vane pump is a fluid transfer unit used in water treatment, food and beverage and coffee machines for pumping water, beverages and other liquids. The pump's compact design and compatibility with standard plumbing setups make it efficient and effective for fluid transfer.

Working Mechanism:

• This pump features a casing that houses a central rotor with vanes, which move eccentrically.
• As the rotor rotates, the vanes move outward, creating a seal.
• By the rotation of the vanes, the pump draws fluid or gas into a sealed chamber.
• As a result, the sealed chamber's volume decreases, compressing the trapped fluid or gas.
• Through the outlet port, the pump expels the compressed fluid or gas.
• The rotor continues to rotate continuously, sustaining the process of suction, compression and discharge.

Features:

• This pump has brass housing material that offers increased durability and reliability.
• It offers 3/8 inch NPT inlet and outlet connections, providing compatibility with standard plumbing setups.
• This pump is equipped with EPDM / nitrile elastomers, ensuring compatibility with fluids and preventing leaks or damages.
• It has a flow rate of 35 GPH, allowing for efficient and effective fluid transfer.
• This pump is designed to operate in fluid temperatures ranging from -4 to 160 degrees F for diverse environmental conditions.
• It offers a maximum mechanical horsepower requirement of 0.29 hp, ensuring energy efficiency and cost-effectiveness during use.
• This pump is integrated with an internal relief valve for safeguarding the system and preventing overpressure situations.
