Pump Company's Progressing Cavity Pumps
Roper Pump Company's Progressing Cavity Pumps provide
many solutions to your pumping requirements with 7 different configurations
to fit your application perfectly. The performance
goes from 0-1000 GPM at Pressure of up to 700 PSI. These
pumps are available in Cast Iron and SST Construction with rotors
available in 316 SST or tool steel, either plated or unplated.
The Stators are available in NBR, Floroelastomer, EPDM, HP Rubber,
and Natural Rubber. With the New HP Rubber, these pumps
can handle temperature up to 425° F.
Model
70200 (Standard Pin Joint)
Model 70200, the workhorse of our progressing cavity pump line,
is ideal for handling a wide variety of materials which are often
considered unpumpable. The 70200 offer the most economical solution
for tough pumping problems like highly viscous, abrasive; shear
sensitive, or solid-containing materials.
A hardened steel pin joint drive system in steel construction
and a corrosion-resistant 316 stainless steel pin in stainless
construction mean durability and ease of maintenance. The
pin joint design has few wearing parts so you get long, trouble-free
performance. And when service is necessary, you can count on simple,
low-cost repairs so you save money and time.
The 70200 is available in a full range of sizes in one-, two-,
and three-stage pumps to suit a wide variety of applications.
Models 70300, 70600 (Over Size and
Double Oversize Pin Joint)
Sometimes you need a pump that can handle higher pressures or
offer even longer life than the 70200. Applications like
this call for 70300 or 70600 models which feature drive
ends larger than that in the 70200. For the 70300 the next larger
drive end is used with the standard elements. In the 70600 series
a drive end two sizes larger than that in the 70200 is used. Both
the 70300 and 70600 give you an increased pin area for longer
pump life and higher torques.
As a result, either model can handle high-pressure spraying, chemical
injection into high-pressure lines and applications involving
pressures above 225 psi. The 70300 series also allows you to use
our stainless steel pumps, normally rated to 75 psi and 600 RPM,
in applications that call for their full element ratings. Standard
pumps offered in the 70300 series are three-, four- and six-stage
pumps.
Model 70400 (Gear Joint)
The most demanding jobs demand 70400 pump. Our 70400 series
pump is designed and built for special applications where joint
life is most critical. A crowned gear joint, sealed against pump
age, provides a drive system with a greater wear area than the
standard 70200 series for the ultimate in joint life.
Its construction makes this gear joint pump ideal for applications
where a longer maintenance interval is desired, when accessibility
to the pump is limited or where downtime must be kept to a minimum.
Also, because the 70400 series gear joint pump comes standard
with large clean-out ports, large objects can be removed from
the suction housing without dismantling the pump.
Model 70500 (Solid Shaft)
Its solid drive shaft makes 70500 the pump of choice for
handling anything with a tendency to set up -- and eventually
build up -- in a hollow-shaft model. That includes thermosetting
adhesives, concrete, grout, plaster and other materials that have
the potential to harden inside the shaft. When these materials
are allowed to build up and harden, they inhibit free movement
of the connecting rod, resulting in connecting rod breakage.
In designing the 70500, our engineers moved the pin joint connection
from the middle of the drive shaft out to the end. So the entire
connecting rod is located within the suction housing where material
can be easily flushed.
Model 70700
If you're faced with pumping extremely high viscosity or semidry
materials that won't flow easily through a standard suction port,
you'll be interested in the 70700 series of hopper feed progressing
cavity pumps. The 70700 replaces the standard suction housing
and circular ANSI flanges with a large rectangular hopper with
sloped sides to facilitate material movement into the pump. The
extra-large hopper is designed to accommodate extremely thick
or dry materials that have a tendency to bridge with other manufacturers'
pumps. Therefore, with the 70700, a bridge breaker is normally
not necessary.
From the hopper, materials are simply auger-fed to the pumping
elements by a specially designed flighted connecting rod that
replaces the connecting rod normally found in standard progressing
cavity pumps.
So fluids that won't flow through a standard flange -- including
heavy slurries, filter cake and greases -- will move steadily
and reliably through the 70700 pump.
