Procon 112A060F11CA rotary vane pump is used in beverage dispensing systems, soda fountains and coffee machines to handle liquids efficiently and maintain a consistent flow rate. This pump can handle a wide range of viscosities and is designed for continuous operation, making them reliable for commercial settings.
Working Mechanism:
- The central rotor with vanes in this pump is housed within a casing and moves eccentrically.
- During rotation, the vanes extend outward, creating a seal.
- By this vane movement, the pump then draws fluid or gas into a sealed chamber.
- Consequently, the sealed chamber's volume decreases, compressing the entrapped fluid or gas.
- Then the compressed fluid or gas is expelled through the outlet port of the pump.
- The rotor then maintains continuous rotation, sustaining the process of suction, compression and discharge.
Features:
- It features brass construction for increased durability and resistance to corrosion.
- This pump has a built-in relief valve, providing safety and protection from excessive pressure.
- It comes with a bypass system for smooth operation and controlled flow.
- This pump offers a 0.118-inch double flat drive, facilitating efficient power transmission.
- It further features an NPT inlet of 3/8-18 inches for compatibility with standard pipe fittings.
