Description

The X Series Sliding Vane Pumps are a line of space-efficient, reliable pump solutions designed for applications requiring compact installation. Manufactured by Blackmer PSG Dover through KI Pumps of Waukesha, WI, these pumps feature a thermal shock-resistant ductile iron construction with external ball bearings isolated by mechanical seals to enhance durability. The pumps are designed for direct coupling to standard electric motors, facilitating straightforward integration into various systems.

Models and Installation:

  • XB1 and XB1P Models: Base-mounted designs suitable for portable or fixed pad installations.
  • XF1 and XF1P Models: Include an integral bracket for direct mounting to NEMA C-face motors.

Specifications:

  • Port Size: 1-inch NPT threaded ports for ease of connection.
  • Flow Capacities: Range from 5 to 14 gpm (19-53 L/min), depending on model and conditions.
  • Operating Speed: Up to 1,750 rpm, suitable for various process requirements.
  • Fluid Viscosity: Capable of handling fluids with viscosities up to 100 SSU (20 cP).
  • Capacity Variants: XF1P and XB1P models provide approximately 50% greater flow capacity compared to XF1 and XB1 models.

Features:

  • External Mechanical Seals: Isolate the ball bearings to prevent fluid leakage and enhance pump lifespan.
  • Dual-Acting Relief Valve: Integrated to control flow, with the capability to return excess fluid to the tank when connected via a return pipe.

Use Cases:

  • Ideal for applications where space is limited, requiring a compact pump with reliable performance, such as in chemical transfer, process fluid handling, or leak testing setups.
  • Suitable for budget-conscious projects demanding durable pump construction with low maintenance needs.
  • Designed for use by OEMs and system integrators seeking space-saving, efficient sliding vane pumps for tight installation environments.

Included in the Box:

  • Complete pump assembly with mechanical seals and external ball bearings.
  • Optional integral mounting brackets (XF1 and XF1P models).
  • Note: Electrical motor not included; must be purchased separately.

Care and Maintenance:

  • Periodic inspection of seals and bearings recommended to ensure longevity.
  • Clean exterior surfaces with a damp cloth; avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the ductile iron or seals.
  • Warranty details vary; consult manufacturer documentation for specific coverage and service instructions.
