  • Page 19 Product description The rotary vane pump is an oil-sealed rotational displacement pump. The pumping system is made up of the housing, the eccentrically mounted rotor, and the centrifugally- and spring-loaded radially sliding vanes, which divide the suction chamber into multiple chambers. The volume of each chamber changes periodically as the rotor rotates.
