High-vacuum pumps increase conveying efficiency, decrease energy consumption

 

The MVP (MaxFlo Vacuum Pump) series and UVP (UltraVac Vacuum Pump) series for high-vacuum polymer conveying applications generate higher vacuum levels at a modest price premium vs. traditional positive displacement pumps. Use of the high vacuum is an alternative to increasing line size, which reduces pressure drop but increases energy usage.

 

The MVP and UVP convey more material over longer distances, up to 1,000 equivalent feet or more as compared to conventional pumps, without increasing line size. The units are designed to eliminate plugged conveying lines, starved machines, and insufficient throughput capacity.

 

Use of the high-efficiency MVP and UVP pumps allows system expansion, increased throughput and conveying distance, conveying to multiple destinations with one pump, and decreased energy consumption.

 

The heavy duty MVP series, available in 7.5, 10, 15 and 20 hp models is rated for operation up to 16 inches of mercury (Hg). Exclusive spiral flow pump technology minimizes sound emission substantially versus traditional positive displacement pumps, so no noise reduction blankets are needed.

 

The UVP series, in 6- and 9-hp models, is also rated for operation up to 16 inches (Hg). Direct drive motor maintenance needs are limited to changing the oil every 12 months.
