Vector 4000 Description
3 DESCRIPTION
3.1 Identification
Vector pumps are identified by the nameplate located on
the upper bracket. It includes the type and model number of
the pump. This model number indicates information regard-
ing pump materials, type of the hose, characteristics of the
gearbox, and characteristics of the motor. The gearbox as well
as the motor have their own nameplates on which include the
reduction ratio, power, and electrical voltage.
3.2 Description of Pump Operation
Wanner Engineering, Inc.
PHASE 1
The pump hose is compressed successively by two pressing
shoes assembled on a rotating wheel. The first shoe, by press-
ing the walls of the hose, will create a vacuum and suck the
pumped liquid into the hose.
PHASE 2
The pumped liquid has now entered the hose. The second
shoe will compress the hose and push the liquid towards the
pump outlet.
PHASE 3
As soon as, at the discharge side, the shoe is detached from
the hose, the other shoe diametrically opposite is already in
compression thus avoiding an internal material leakage. The
material is then successively sucked and pushed due to the
wheel rotation.
