PV2R Series Yuken Fixed Displacement Double Vane Pumps

1. Product Overview

The YUKEN PV2R Series is a high-performance fixed displacement double vane pump system consisting of two PV2R single vane pumps combined in tandem within a single housing and driven by a common shaft. It provides a single suction port and two independent discharge ports, enabling simultaneous supply of different flow rates to separate hydraulic circuits. As a core component of industrial hydraulic systems, it delivers stable flow output with excellent pressure resistance and low noise performance, widely used in various precision machinery applications.

2. Core Features

1. High Pressure and Stable Performance

  • Maximum pressure up to 21MPa (210 bar): Exceptional pressure resistance for demanding industrial applications;
  • Stable flow output: Fixed displacement design ensures consistent flow delivery proportional to rotational speed, ideal for systems requiring precise flow control;
  • Low pulsation: Advanced vane design minimizes flow pulsation, reducing system vibration and noise;

2. Compact Double Pump Design

  • Dual pumping units: Two independent vane pumps in one housing, driven by a single shaft, saving installation space and reducing component count;
  • Independent circuits: Two separate discharge ports allow for different pressure/flow requirements in a single system, optimizing energy usage;
  • Cartridge kit design: Internal components assembled as replaceable cartridges for quick maintenance and reduced downtime;

3. Low Noise and Environmental Performance

  • Optimized noise reduction: Special vane and cam ring design reduces operating noise to as low as 65 dB(A) under standard conditions, improving workplace environment;
  • Long service life: High-quality materials and precision manufacturing ensure extended operational lifespan with minimal wear;
  • Environmentally friendly: Efficient design minimizes energy consumption and reduces hydraulic oil contamination risks;

4. Versatile Application Capability

  • Wide displacement range: Double pumps offer combined displacement from 11.6 to 474 cm³/rev, covering diverse flow requirements;
  • Multiple mounting options: Available in flange and foot-mounted configurations to suit different installation requirements;
  • Flexible rotation directions: Clockwise and counter-clockwise rotation options for versatile system integration;

4. System Composition and Working Principle

1. Basic Structure

  • Dual vane pumping units: Two independent single vane pumps (Pump A and Pump B) integrated in a single housing, sharing a common drive shaft;
  • Cam ring and rotor assembly: Each pump features a precision cam ring, rotor with sliding vanes, and pressure plate for efficient fluid displacement;
  • Common suction port: Single inlet supplies hydraulic fluid to both pumping units, simplifying system piping;
  • Dual discharge ports: Two separate outlets for independent flow control to different hydraulic circuits;
  • Cartridge assembly: Internal components (rotor, vanes, cam ring) are assembled as replaceable cartridges for easy maintenance;

2. Working Principle

  1. The common drive shaft rotates both pump rotors simultaneously when powered by an electric motor;
  2. Vanes in each rotor slide outward due to centrifugal force and pressure, maintaining contact with the cam ring inner surface to form sealed chambers;
  3. As the rotor turns, chamber volume increases at the suction side (drawing fluid in) and decreases at the discharge side (forcing fluid out);
  4. Two independent flows are delivered through separate discharge ports, providing flexible flow distribution for complex hydraulic systems;

5. Main Application Fields

  1. Injection molding machines: Precise flow control for mold closing, injection, and holding phases;
  2. Hydraulic presses: Stable pressure output for forming and stamping operations;
  3. Die casting machines: High flow capacity for rapid mold filling and solidification processes;
  4. Machine tools: Precise hydraulic control for tool positioning and clamping systems;
  5. Plastic extrusion equipment: Consistent flow for uniform product dimensions and quality;
  6. Automated production lines: Compact design and dual circuit capability for space-efficient multi-function systems;

6. Summary of Technical Advantages

The PV2R Series represents a benchmark in fixed displacement vane pump technology by combining:
  • High efficiency: Optimized vane design and precision manufacturing minimize internal leakage and maximize volumetric efficiency;
  • Space saving: Dual pump integration reduces installation footprint by up to 30% compared to separate pump configurations;
  • Cost effective: Reduced component count and simplified piping lower system costs and maintenance expenses;
  • Low noise: Advanced design reduces operating noise, improving workplace safety and comfort;
  • Maintenance friendly: Cartridge kit design enables quick repair and minimizes downtime;
