DESIGN PRINCIPLE Kinney® Liquid Ring Vacuum Pumps and Systems KLRC Series The KLRC is a non-pulsating vacuum pump designed to remove gases through the use of rotating impeller blades that enter and leave a ring of liquid. The impeller forces this sealing liquid to the periphery of the pump casing, where it forms a moving ring of liquid around a center void. Suction Port Impeller Blade Center Void Discharge Port Liquid Ring Compressed Gas The impeller shaft is mounted above the centerline of the casing; while the blades, although rotating concentrically, are located eccentrically with...

AF Series AF Liquid Ring Vacuum Pumps and Systems AF series vacuum pumps consist of a shrouded motor rotating freely within an eccentric casing. Centrifugal force acting on liquid within the pump causes the liquid to form a ring inside the casing. A fixed port cylinder concentric with the rotor directs the gas into the suction ports. Gas is trapped between the blades by the liquid pistons formed by centrifugal force as the liquid recedes from the port cylinder. It is trapped at the point of maximum eccentricity and is then compressed by the liquid ring as it is forced radially inward toward...

AF Series “T” SERIES TWO-STAGE PUMPS AF “T” Series Multi-stage Liquid Ring Vacuum Pumps utilize the same axial flow design as the “A” Series Single-stage pumps, but with an additional stage to provide deeper vacuum levels. This patented pump style is designed for high wet vacuum applications where they can operate with the lowest partial gas pressure without cavitation. Ideally suited for evaporators, deaerators, autoclaves, A DISCHARGE dryers and other 1" NPT applications requiring vacuum higher B than 27" Hg. When packaged in oil sealed systems, “T” INLET (H) Series pumps can operate in...
