5000 Series - Industrial - Positive Displacement Pumps

FEATURES

Ideal for pumping low viscosity and non-lubricating fluids, for metering fluids, for gentle pumping of shear-sensitive fluids or for pumping high-viscosity fluids.

Benefits

  • 316L stainless steel body & cover and 316 stainless steel shafts.
  • Non-galling Waukesha “88” alloy rotors standard, permits running at tighter clearances and pumping a wide range of viscosities.
  • Very low shear, product not damaged during pumping.
  • Wide selection of commercial seals, packing, and triple lip seals including cartridge seals.
  • Requires less horsepower than Progressing Cavity Pumps.
  • Bidirectional flow.
  • Upper or lower shaft positions.
  • Pumps filled with most settled slurries will start without damaging pump or seals.
  • Expanded fluid cavities can pump liquids with large solids without jamming or knocking rotors out of timing.
  • Unique timing gear arrangement reduces troublesome maintenance issues, as experienced on conventional lobe pumps.
  • No cross contamination of lubricating oil or grease into product zone, due to unique gear case design.
  • Pumps are energy efficient, and when needed easily maintained, and repaired.
  • Versatile 3-way mounting of gear case, including vertical alignment of ports.

Long-life Features

  • 200 psi (13.8 bar) pressure capability.
  • Heavy duty Cast Iron bearing frame.
  • No internal rotor contact.
  • Double tapered roller bearings on all models.
  • Grease lubricated bearings for positive lubrication to all bearings over entire speed, temperature and pressure range.
  • Body retaining screws for maintaining mechanical seal loading and body position during inspection.
  • Steel-It Paint.
  • Remanufacturing Program to extend life and reduce costs.
  • Carbon cover bushings to minimize shaft deflection and wear.

MODEL 5040

0-600 RPM speed range. Suitable to 200 PSI (13.8 bar) differential pressure. Temperature range -40°F (-40°C) to 300°F (149°C).
