KVO Series

Applications: Freeze Drying, Vacuum Packaging, Filling & Sealing, Central Vacuum Systems, Thermoforming, Food Packaging, Injection Molding

The KVO vane series serves a variety of applications where high-volume air is required in applications up to 0.375 Torr (with gas ballast) for continuous operation. The KVO Series is an oil-sealed, multi-vane, single-stage, air cooled, and direct-driven vacuum pump. This design is rugged and durable with a heavy-duty construction for continuous duty applications. Oil sealed rotary vane vacuum pumps are simple, quiet, and efficient, offering a very attractive $/ CFM ratio when compared to other technologies. There are several model options across the Kinney vane pump product portfolio with capacity ranges from 35 to 903 CFM.

• Easy Maintenance: Oil separator elements are easily replaced and are accessible from the pump exterior. No special tools are required making it quick and easy to service.
• NEMA Premium Motor: High efficiency NEMA framed motors are compatible with variable speed drives.
• XD Versions Available: Increased vapor tolerances and improved resistance to solvents.
• Low Noise: Advanced cylinder and cover designs allow sound levels to be as low as 67 dB(A) for quiet operation.
• Air Cooled: Includes an over-sized pump cooling fan linked to the drive motor as well as vent cover openings to keep the unit cool and extend the life of the pump.
• Standard Gas Ballast Valve: Equipped with gas ballast valve open to allow water vapor handling without needing to purchase added accessories.
• Premium Oil Separator System: Ensures that the discharge air from the pump is virtually oil-free. This system removes 99.997% of oil from the air stream.
• Highly Efficient: Low power consumption for optimal performance makes the KVO oil sealed rotary vane an energy efficient vacuum solution.
• Ultimate Vacuum Down to 0.375 Torr: Ultimate vacuum down to 0.375 Torr (with standard gas ballast) / 0.075 Torr (without gas ballast) to support your application.
• Continuous Duty Operation: Designed for continuous duty applications requiring 24/7/365 operation.
• Lifting Eyebolt: Lifting eyebolt for easy transport and placement. The pumping unit can be lifted and removed from the pump assembly frame and easily repaired during service intervals.
• Small Footprint: Compact design to fit into nearly any space, reducing required floor space.
• Long Life Vanes: Durable composite resin vanes on models KVO50 to KVO400. Models KVO500 and above utilize aluminum vanes.
