PV2R24A/34A Series Yuken Fixed Displacement Double Vane Pumps

1. Product Overview

The YUKEN PV2R24A/34A Series is a high-performance fixed displacement double vane pump system consisting of a PV2R4A single vane pump (large capacity side) combined with a PV2R2 or PV2R3 single vane pump (small capacity side) 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 requiring dual circuit operation.

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: Combination of PV2R4A (large capacity) and PV2R2/PV2R3 (small capacity) 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 and system flexibility;
  • 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 142.5 to 309 cm³/rev (PV2R4A: 138.5/162.6/194 cm³/rev + PV2R2/PV2R3: 4/10/26/33/41/60/94 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: Combination of PV2R4A (large capacity) and PV2R2/PV2R3 (small capacity) vane pumps 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 (PV2R4A and PV2R2/PV2R3) 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 requiring dual circuit operation;

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 requiring independent flow control;

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, while PV2R4A’s compact design provides additional space savings;
  • Cost effective: Simplified design and reduced component count lower system costs and maintenance expenses;
  • Cost effective: Reduced component count and simplified piping lower system costs and maintenance expenses, while dual circuit operation eliminates the need for additional pumps;
  • Maintenance friendly: Cartridge kit design enables quick repair and minimizes downtime;
