PV2R Series Yuken Fixed Displacement Single Vane Pumps

1. Product Overview

The YUKEN PV2R Series is a high-performance fixed displacement single vane pump system designed for low noise operation and high pressure performance. It features a single pumping unit with one suction port and one discharge port, delivering stable flow output proportional to rotational speed. As a core component of industrial hydraulic systems, it offers excellent pressure resistance and low noise performance, widely used in various precision machinery applications requiring reliable fluid power supply.

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 Single Pump Design

  • Single pumping unit: Compact design with one vane pump in a single housing, reducing installation space and simplifying system configuration;
  • Single circuit operation: One suction and one discharge port for straightforward system integration and precise flow control;
  • 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: Single pumps offer displacement from 5.8 to 237 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

  • Single vane pumping unit: One independent single vane pump integrated in a compact housing with a single 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;
  • Single suction port: Single inlet supplies hydraulic fluid to the pumping unit, simplifying system piping;
  • Single discharge port: One outlet for precise flow control to 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. A single flow is delivered through the discharge port, providing precise flow control for 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: Compact single pump design minimizes installation footprint, simplifying machine layout and integration;
  • Cost effective: Simplified design and reduced component count 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;
