PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Q-VAC Priming Systems are engineered to provide the highest level of quality, performance, and convenience.  With over 30 years of experience, our manufacturing capabilities, expertise, and attention to detail create standards that others simply can’t match. 

Q-VAC Priming systems are available in simplex and duplex designs using rotary vane or liquid ring vacuum technologies.

Priming systems incorporating oil-lubricated rotary vane vacuum pumps are the easiest to install, provide the highest efficiency, and create the deepest vacuum levels.   

Priming systems using liquid ring vacuum pumps provide the highest reliability and lowest maintenance requirements.  They are available in a wide range of sizes and several materials of construction.  Liquid ring vacuum pumps have no metal-to-metal contact and are undamaged when ingesting saturated air, small amounts of liquids, and soft solids. 

Each Q-VAC system is engineered with all the necessary accessories, controls, and safety devices needed for long, trouble-free operation.  Convenience features like extended oil drain lines and vacuum release valves are standard to facilitate quick and trouble free maintenance. 

Q-VAC duplex priming systems provide advanced controls and the safety of built-in redundancy.  Since two vacuum pumps operate during initial priming, smaller vacuum pumps can be selected without sacrificing performance.  However, to maximize efficiency only one vacuum pump runs during normal operation.  Not only does this reduce power consumption, it also reduces the run time on each vacuum pump.  

Q-VAC duplex priming systems include a micro-processing controller and vacuum transducer to provide unsurpassed system control and reliability.  Other standard features include automatic alternation, lead/lag control, frequent start protection, hour meters, run lights, audible & visual alarms, and dry alarm contacts for remote monitoring.   

Although most applications require automatic controls, on-demand systems with manual controls are available for less critical, cost sensitive applications.   

Q-VAC Priming Systems include a wide range of standard designs, performance levels, and accessories.  For special requirements our experienced application engineers will work with you to determine the best solution.
