Vector Model 4007 Peristaltic Pump

Lubricated Shoe Design — 32 mm Hose, up to 16.5 GPM at 218 PSI

The Vector 4007 uses a lubricant-filled shoe to compress the hose. That design supports higher pressure and continuous-duty service compared with a dry-case roller pump of similar size. Maximum pressure depends on flow rate and fluid viscosity — higher-viscosity fluids can usually be run closer to the 218 PSI rating. Fluid never contacts seals, valves or packing — the hose is the only wetted wear part.

The performance curve separates continuous (24 hour), intermittent and occasional duty so the pump can be sized for 1,500–2,000 hours of hose life.

Technical Specifications

Fluid Handling Capability

• Viscosity up to 100,000 cps
• Liquid temperatures up to 180°F (82°C)
• Fiber length up to 7⅞″ (200 mm catalog / 300 mm printed on the data sheet)
• Solids to approximately 3/16″

Hose Materials & Connections

The 4007 uses fiber-braided hoses in natural rubber, oil-rated NBR, EPDM and Hypalon. Typical hose life is 1,500–2,000 hours at 30 RPM. We can review chemical compatibility and provide samples for soak testing when needed. A searchable peristaltic hose chemical compatibility guide is also available.

Connections are 1½″ 150 lb ANSI flanges. The flange is 316 stainless steel; the insert is 316 SST, polypropylene or PVDF.

Gear-Motor Options

Six three-phase 230–460 VAC TEFC gear-motor speeds are offered, from 1½ HP to 3 HP. Single-phase power can be accommodated when required. Standard gear motors used with a VFD have a 4:1 turndown. Maximum pressure is speed-dependent:

Catalog maximum discharge pressure is 218 PSI. The assembled-drive maximum is 16.5 GPM; the curve reaches about 23 GPM on occasional duty at 140 RPM. Stay in the continuous-duty portion of the curve when the application runs around the clock.

Design Features

• Lubricant-filled cavity with a shoe compressor
• Self-priming; runs dry without damage
• Complete isolation of the pumped fluid
• No seals, cups or packing to leak or wear
• Reversible flow
• Low maintenance — hose change is the primary service item

Approximate assembled cost is $7,158 including the gear motor. Some hose materials and connection configurations increase the cost. Final pricing is confirmed with the inquiry.
