Available in 17 models to handle a wide range of processing requirements, Vector peristaltic pumps are ideal for pumping challenging fluids without altering their composition.
They move high-viscosity (up to 100,000 cps) pasty, pulpy, thick, abrasive, and corrosive solutions as well as fluids containing solids up to 3-1/2 inches (90 mm) in size.
Our technical engineers can help, with answers to your questions and pump selection advice to handle your process liquid and application.
Pressure Ratings
Up to 218 psig discharge pressure
Flow Capacities
Up to 211 gpm
Contamination-free Pumping
Fluid is contained in the hose and only contacts the hose
Fluid/Hose Compatibility
Fiber-braided or extruded hoses can handle abrasive or corrosive fluids as well as food products or pharmaceutical materials
Low-shear/Non-emulsifying
Transfers food and pharmaceutical solutions without crushing or foaming the fluids
Self-priming
Requires no priming chamber; suction lifts to 29-1/2 feet depending on model
Dry Running
Externally lubricated hose enables the pumps to run dry without stalling or damaging the hose or roller assembly; avoids pump failure and reducing pump life
Dependable Seal-less Design
Handles Abrasive Solids
Can pump abrasive fine particles and solids up to 3-1/2 inches (90 mm)
Easy to Clean
Reversible rotary movement provides for easy-to-clean system piping; flushing may be eliminated
Easy to Service
Simple replacement of hoses saves time; clear plastic cover allows the pump to be checked easily during operation for any problems
Vacuum Capability
A Vector pump can be used as a vacuum pump and for cleaning up spills; evacuates gases as well as fluids
Dosing Capability
A Vector pump is also a positive displacement pump for metering; output flow is directly proportional to pump speed
Despite this powerful pumping action, Vector pumps will not cause frothing or delicate emulsions to break up.
Since fluids travel through a single hose, they never come into contact with moving valves, springs, or seals.
This makes Vector pumps ideal for handling abrasive, shear-sensitive, or corrosive fluids. Dyes, thick fluids, and solids up to 3-1/2 inches (90 mm) are also readily pumped.
Peristaltic pumps work by compressing and relaxing a hose positioned between a rotating device and a circular pump housing. Vector 2000 Series pumps use rotating rollers that provide the same “push” with far less hose wear.
The peristaltic method employed in Vector pumps can create 100% compression at all times. As a result, there is virtually no slipping. Metering is highly accurate. Up to 29-1/2 feet of suction lift is produced.
Vector uses an evolutionary roller mechanism instead of a rigid shoe to push fluids through its hose. This ensures longer working life with less downtime for maintenance. The rollers generate less friction than shoes, extending hose life and reducing downtime.
Fluid positioned ahead of the rollers gets pushed forward as the rollers rotate inside of the case.
Meanwhile, the portion of the hose just behind the rollers rebounds to create a vacuum.
