2. INTRODUCTION

The horizontal VY Series Plunger Pump of UDOR are designed and manufactured to pumps or transfer clean water.
The pump consists of two main sections (see fig.1): a "Power End" and a "Fluid End".
In the "Power End", the moving components are in contact with the lubricant and transform the rotary motion of the
power take-off of the shaft into the alternating horizontal motion of the pistons inside the "Fluid End", whose other
components are in contact with the water used in the system.
The Pumps are supplied standard with the power take-off of the shaft on the right (see fig.1); on request, all models
can be supplied with power take-off on the left.
The Pumps are generally driven by: electric motors, endothermic petrol or diesel engines and hydraulic motors,
tractor or truck P.T.O. Couplings may be fulfilled by means of transmission shaft, direct flanging, reduction unit or
multiplier, joints, pulleys and belts.
