APD-RC Series
APD-RC Series Rotary Claw Vacuum Pumps
The APD-RC Series positive displacement vacuum pumps feature a compact rotary claw design that is air-cooled, dry-running and non-contacting. These features help to eliminate internal wear and general maintenance, cutting down on parts to replace as well as maintain.
With a zero-friction pumping chamber, along with high volumetric efficiency, the APD-RC helps keep costs down by reducing energy usage by 20-50%, and operating costs are almost eliminated because of the maintenance-free design.
The APD-RC rotary claw vacuum pumps are directly driven by a flanged motor, and the two rotors are synchronized by gears. A wide range of accessories allows optimum adaption to many applications.
REQUEST A QUOTE Find a rep- The APD-RC Series is designed for plastics processing applications that require vacuum generation for central conveying systems. It is particularly well suited for high-vacuum applications and long conveying distances.
- Rotary claw vacuum pumps generate the vacuum needed to move material through conveying lines while utilizing a dry-running, non-contacting design that helps support reliable operation in conveying applications.
- Dry-running vacuum pumps operate without contact between internal rotating components in the pumping chamber. This design helps minimize internal wear and reduce routine maintenance requirements.
- An efficient vacuum pump helps provide consistent airflow throughout the conveying system, supporting reliable material transfer and helping processors optimize overall system operation.
- Factors such as conveying distance, vacuum requirements, material throughput, system layout, and production demands should be evaluated when selecting a vacuum pump for a central conveying system.
- The APD-RC Series provides vacuum generation for central conveying systems, helping processors efficiently transport free-flowing materials throughout their facility while supporting long conveying runs and demanding conveying applications.
- 4 – 15 HP Models
- 1.5” OD, 2.0” OD, 2.5” OD and 3.0” OD Line Sizes Available
Inside the pump housing, two claw-shaped rotors take in air as they rotate in opposite directions. The air is compressed by the rotors, then discharged through a silencer to the atmosphere.
The non-return valve incorporated into the inlet flange prevents air from back flowing into the vacuum chamber when the pump is turned off.
