vacorex⁶ VX
Extraction pump for the polymer industry
MAAG introduces the vacorex®-x⁶ class gear pump. vacorex⁶ fulfills ideally modern polymer production processes which require pumps that can discharge at high pressure despite very low fill level and high vacuum conditions in the reactor/devolatilization vessel.
MAAG vacorex⁶ process a wide range of different polymer grades without affecting their quality. Reliable, requiring little maintenance, and robust enough to withstand the rigors of years of operation is vacorex⁶ gear pump the ideal solution for such applications.
Advantages
- + up to 40 % more throughput or + 28 % more pressure and + 11 % more throughput compared to the classic pumps with the same pump size
- + 30 % better heat transfer in the bearings
- + 15 % larger inlet with optimized geometry
- + 8 % better vol. efficiency
- - 10 % less energy consumption
