Vector Model 2006 Peristaltic Pump

Dry-Case Roller Design — 1¼″ Hose, up to 14.1 GPM at 60 PSI

The Vector 2006 is an industrial-grade roller-style peristaltic pump with 1¼″ connections for transfer duties up to 14.1 GPM at pressures to 60 PSI. A dry case and rotating rollers pinch the hose, so the only wear part in contact with the process fluid is the hose itself. When the pump is operated at ≤60 RPM for ≤8 hours per day, typical hose life is 1,500–2,000 hours.

The simple seal-less design is well suited to difficult fluids — acids and chemicals as well as viscous slurries with a high solids content. The 2006 is self-priming, can run dry without damage, and is fully reversible.

Technical Specifications

Fluid Handling Capability

• Viscosity up to 15,000 cps
• Liquid temperatures up to 180°F (82°C)
• Solids to 1/8″; fiber length up to 1⅞″ (47.6 mm)
• Non-compressible solids: 4.50 mm at >50% solids, 7.50 mm at <10% solids
• Compressible solids up to 27.0 mm
• Sharp solids should be avoided

Hose Materials & Connections

Seven hose materials are offered for the 2006: EPDM, Hypalon, natural rubber, oil-rated nitrile, Neoprene, silicone and Varprene. We can review chemical compatibility and provide samples for soak testing when needed.

• Extruded hoses — Neoprene, silicone and Varprene, generally limited to 30 PSIG. Preferred for cleaner fluids at lower pressure.
• Fiber-braided hoses — EPDM, Hypalon, nitrile and natural rubber (standard and heavy-duty). Preferred for abrasives, stronger vacuum and the full 60 PSI rating. Typical life 1,500–2,000 hours at 30 RPM.

Connections are typically hose barb, ANSI flange or tri-clamp and are offered in PTFE, carbon steel and 316 stainless steel.

Gear-Motor Options

Five gear-motor speeds are offered as 230–460 VAC three-phase TEFC, from 1 HP to 2 HP. Single-phase motors can be supplied on request. Maximum pressure is higher with heavy-duty fiber-braided hose:

Shaft-drive configuration (no motor) is also available. The 60 PSI rating applies to heavy-duty fiber-braided hose at the lower speeds.

Design Features

• Dry pump cavity — no glycerin bath
• Self-priming; runs dry without damage
• Complete isolation of the pumped fluid
• No seals, cups or packing to leak or wear
• Reversible flow
• Heavy-duty roller bearings
• Low maintenance — hose change is the primary service item

Parts List — Model 2006

Ref. Nos. 1–3 and 6 list both the original (old) parts and the 2018 replacements. Ref. No. 8 lists hose options and Ref. No. 16 lists connector options — order one hose and two connectors per pump.

Approximate assembled cost is $5,947 including the gear motor. Some hose materials and connection configurations will increase the cost. Final pricing is confirmed with the inquiry.
