Features & Benefits

Know more about the features & benefits of using TX Series Sliding Vane Pumps.

External roller ball bearings support the rotor from both sides, creating a stable environment for the internal mechanical seals
Special closed rotor design has minimal clearance to improve inlet performance allowing for line stripping, priming evacuated piping systems and vertical lift of fluid to the pump inlet
Blackmer mechanical seal and ball-bearing construction provide maximum reliability
Internal mechanical seals allow for extended dry run and continuous operation with non-lubricating liquids
Symmetrical bearing support assures even loading and wear for long life
Excellent self-priming and dry-run capabilities
Sustained performance and trouble-free operation
High suction lift and line-stripping capabilities
Easy to maintain – low maintenance and life cycle costs

OUR RANGE OF BLACKMER TX SERIES SLIDING VANE PUMPS

Blackmer sliding vane pumps use a rotor with sliding vanes to draw liquid into the pump. This rotor is located close to the wall of the cam so that a crescent-shaped cavity is formed on the opposite wall. Each rotor slot contains a sliding vane. As the rotor rotates, centrifugal force, hydraulic pressure, and push rods work together to extend each vane to the casing wall. This creates an expanding cavity on the inlet side – creating a vacuum that pulls liquid into the pump. The liquid is trapped between the vanes and the casing wall. The rotor rotation moves the liquid cavities around to the outlet side of the pump. The vanes are forced back into their slots at the outlet side, decreasing the cavity size and forcing the liquid through the outlet port.

TXV Sliding Vane Pumps

Blackmer TXV cast iron sliding vane pumps are designed for the high-temperature transfer of thick, viscous fluids, including asphalts. They deliver higher flow rates per revolution than other ported gear pumps. Their slower operating speeds mean longer service life and reduced maintenance requirements. The TXV Series comes standard with bronze vanes and are available in 2.5- and 3-in port sizes.

Features & Benefits

Special open rotor design that offers easy flushing
Bronze vanes, FKM elastomers, PTFE lip seals
Slower operating speeds mean longer service life and reduced maintenance requirements
High-performance capabilities, including self-priming and line-clearing

Key Specifications

Flow rates up to 1,043 L/min
Max differential pressures: 8.6 bar
Working pressures up to 12.1 bar
Max viscosities: 0.2 – 10,500 cP

TXD1220 Sliding Vane Pumps

Blackmer TXD1120 cast iron sliding vane pumps boast speeds of up to 1,200 RPM, providing fast transfer of fluids and quiet operation. These high-speed pumps are also durable, reliable, safe, and efficient.

Features & Benefits

Double-ended drive shaft for either clockwise (RH) or counterclockwise (LH) rotation
Dual-ended shaft on 2-, 2.5- and 3-in models simplifies installation
Symmetrical bearing support assures even loading and wear for long life

Key Specifications

Flow rates up to 1,200 L/min
Max differential pressures: 8.6 bar
Working pressures up to 15.5 bar
