Operating principle and construction

VF-48 is a compact helical gear pump whose IEC B5 motor is flange-mounted to the pump and drives it through an elastomer jaw coupling. The flange centring aligns the drive; the unit is supplied on a steel baseplate and delivers up to 20 bar from a very small envelope. The mechanical seal and the integrated by-pass valve are standard. Flow is proportional to speed and independent of pressure. Typical duties are thermal oil circulation, burner and dosing supply and small transfer circuits.

Frequently asked questions

Which liquids does VF-48 pump?

VF-48 pumps liquids from 10 to 1,650 cSt up to 230 °C. Applications: Thermal oil circulation and auxiliary circuits; Burner fuel supply — diesel, light fuel oil; Additive and dosing injection; Lubrication circuits.

What is the maximum differential pressure of VF-48?

20 bar in the standard version.

How do I calculate the flow of VF-48?

Theoretical flow = displacement × speed. For VF-48, q = 0.046 l/rev. When viscosity increases, the permitted maximum speed decreases. Use the capacity table in the datasheet and our note on viscosity and speed to select the pump.

Is an ATEX version of VF-48 available?

Yes. The marking is II 1/2G Ex h IIB T4 Ga/Gb, zones 0 and 1. The maximum liquid temperature is 130 °C. Details: ATEX gear pump note.

Is VF-48 available with a heating jacket?

Yes. For liquids that become solid when cold, such as bitumen, the casing is heated. The options are in the technical table. Comparison: thermal oil or electric.
