3. General Information
3.1. DESCRIPTION
INOXPA’s KVB -25 progressive cavity pump forms part of our range of positive-displacement pumps with helical rotor, intended
for viscous fluids. This pump is specially designed for emptying closed barrels with the connection diameter of 60mm or wider.
The hydraulic parts that form the pump are the rotor and the stator. The rotor is a round-section worm. The stator has two ribs
and its pitch doubles that of the rotor, thus allowing empty cavities between the stator and the rotor. These cavities are used
to transport the fluid. When the rotor turns within the stator, the cavities move longitudinally from the suction area to the
discharge nozzle.
This kind of pumps is suitable for pressures from 6 bar.
All pump parts in contract with the pumped product are manufactured in AISI 316L stainless steel. The stator is manufactured
in NBR, according to the FDA norm, and the standard sealing is EN 12756 mechanical seal.
This equipment is suitable for his use in food process.
