VANE PUMPS

Vane pumps are a type of positive displacement pump widely used in various industrial applications for their efficiency and reliability. They operate by utilizing a series of vanes that slide in and out of a rotor, creating chambers that trap and move fluid. As the rotor turns, the vanes extend outward due to centrifugal force, allowing fluid to enter the pump and be displaced through the outlet. This design enables vane pumps to handle a wide range of viscosities, making them suitable for both low and high-viscosity fluids.

Vane pumps are known for their smooth and consistent flow, low pulsation, and relatively quiet operation. They are commonly used in hydraulic systems, fuel transfer, and lubrication applications. Additionally, vane pumps can be designed for either fixed or variable displacement, providing flexibility to meet specific operational requirements. Their robust construction and ease of maintenance further enhance their appeal in demanding environments.
