Vane Pumps in Bahamas, Cayman Islands, Tobago, Trinidad, Virgin Islands & Throughout the Caribbean

vane pumps

Vane pumps have been used around the world for many centuries due to their simplicity and effectiveness. The pumps offer many great solutions for moving light- to medium-viscosity material and other substances to keep your job site running smoothly and efficiently. Warren Rupp and other top pump manufacturers offer different types of pumps to ensure you have the absolute best equipment on your job site.

Simplicity Keeps Them Working

Vane pumps have a slotted rotor within a cycloidal cam that turns in a circular motion to move liquids. It draws material in from one intake, circulates it within the cam, and expels it via a discharge port. There is very little friction or moving parts, which adds to the efficiency and effectiveness. These pumps work particularly well when moving material with light to medium viscosity, including:

  • Water
  • Oil
  • Fuel
  • Solvents
  • Aqueous Solutions

Our team of experts can determine the best type of pump for your job site and design and build custom vane pumps to get the job done right. We can also provide skid-mounted installation and offer 24-hour maintenance and repair services every day of the year.

Vane Pumps Offer Many Advantages

A vane pump is relatively simple to manufacture, install, and maintain, which makes them ideal when moving light liquids. They are particularly good at handling thin liquids that keep relatively high pressures. These types of pumps also compensate for wear via vane extension. The vanes also can run dry for short periods, due to the relatively frictionless pumping mechanism. The result is a fantastic pump for use when the job does not require the movement of heavy material.
