Vickers PVE Series Piston Pumps: Reliable Solution for Low‑Viscosity Liquids
Vickers PVE Series Piston Pumps are an ideal choice for pumping of liquids with a viscosity range of less than 100 centistokes. The pump is designed for use in a variety of applications, including automotive, industrial and agricultural applications.
The Vickers PVE Series piston pump is a positive-displacement pump that delivers fluid through a rotating shaft and stationary piston. This type of pump is ideal for pumping viscous fluids or slurries with a viscosity range of less than 100 centistokes. It can also be used to transfer slurries that have been broken down into small particles.
Vickers PVE Series Piston Pumps consist of two main components: the rotor and stator. The rotor contains the moving parts such as the shaft, bearings and seal rings while the stator contains stationary elements such as seals, bearings and bushings.
Vickers PVE Series Piston Pumps are fixed displacement axial piston pumps that have capabilities for low speed, high torque applications.
The Vickers PVE Series Piston Pumps are a line of fixed displacement axial piston pumps that have capabilities for low speed, high torque applications. These pumps are designed with a single stage rotor and can be used in many different industries such as food processing and chemical industries. The PVE Series Piston Pumps offer an excellent overall performance due to their high efficiency and strong structural design.
The Vickers PVE Series Piston Pumps are designed with an axial flow motor that is capable of producing up to 3500 psi at 40 gpm (189 l/min) inlet pressure and up to 7000 psi at 50 gpm (227 l/min) inlet pressure. They also offer an extremely high efficiency rating of 90% @ 50% load, 92% @ 75% load, and 92% @ 100% load so they can be used in a wide range of applications without sacrificing performance or reliability.
The Vickers PVE Series Piston Pumps are available in a variety of sizes ranging from 1/2″ thru 3″ (Hole size) with either NPT or BSPM flanges depending on what type of connection your system requires.

Vickers PVE Series Piston Pumps are designed to meet the increasing demands on the performance, reliability and efficiency of the hydraulic power industry. The Vickers PVE Series Piston Pump is available in single or double acting configurations. This series offers an excellent torque curve with a high pressure ratio prime mover that is well suited for use as a hydraulic power source for multiple applications. The Vickers PVE Series Piston Pump is designed to provide maximum reliability and efficiency from low horsepower prime movers such as electric motors and diesel engines to high horsepower prime movers such as gas turbines. A wide range of flow rates up to 40 GPM at 10,000 psi (69 MPa) operating pressure can be met with this series of pumps.
A wide range of shaft configurations and controls are available, as well as a variety of choices in displacements.
The Vickers PVE piston pump is designed for maximum efficiency and reliability. The PVE series is designed with the same durability, low maintenance and long life characteristics that have made the Vickers PVT series one of the most popular piston pumps on the market today.
The high pressure capability of this pump makes it very cost effective for use in many applications where hydraulic power is required. The PVF features a positive displacement gear pump design incorporating an integral gearbox, which results in high efficiency, quiet operation, low maintenance and long life.
The PVF features a cast iron body and head with bronze bushing support bearings for excellent corrosion resistance and wear resistance at high pressures up to 6000 psi (413 bar).
The PVE pumps all employ a patented bearing system that allows greater side load capacity than with traditional bearings.
The PVE pumps all employ a patented bearing system that allows greater side load capacity than with traditional bearings. This means that the pump can withstand the effects of higher pressure and temperature, as well as handling higher flow rates. The bearings are also self-lubricating, which reduces maintenance costs and downtime.
The PVE pumps are available in two different models: The PVE2-40/8 and the PVE3-40/8. They both have identical performance ratings, but the PVE2-40/8 is designed for use where space is limited.
The Vickers PVE Series Piston Pump is ideal for applications such as high-pressure chemical, food and beverage processing, oil & gas production or process water treatment plants where reliable, long-life performance is required at a low cost of ownership.
The PVE pump has been designed to provide long service life even when run close to the recommended maximum pressure and under temperatures at or above the maximum recommended levels.
The PVE Series Piston Pump is a high-pressure, positive displacement, single-acting, rotary vane pump for use in chemical, food, and other industrial applications where cleanliness is essential. The cast steel body provides dependable operation with high strength and good wear resistance. The low profile design allows installation in tight spaces while providing excellent access to the pump for maintenance or repair. The PVE Series Piston Pump comes standard with a stainless steel shaft and can be ordered with an optional corrosion resistant shaft made of carbon steel. The unique design features of the PVE Series Piston Pump include:
Full Port Design – Full port designs eliminate leakage paths between internal parts that could result in contamination or erosion damage.
Corrosion Resistant Shafts – Carbon steel shafts are available for applications requiring corrosion resistance.
Stainless Steel Shafts – Stainless steel shafts are available for applications requiring corrosive chemicals or saltwater exposure.

Vickers PVE Series Piston Pumps-The Right Choice
Vickers PVE Series Pumps are an appropriate choice for a wide range of industrial purposes.
The Vickers PVE series piston pump is a positive displacement pump that is suitable for a variety of industrial applications including liquid and gas transfer and circulation, chemical processing, oil and gas, food and beverage, power generation, municipal water supply and wastewater treatment, marine and offshore applications.
The Vickers PVE series piston pump features a modular design, which allows the end user to specify the exact combination of drive motor, baseplate mounting options and lubrication system required for each application. The modular design also allows easy maintenance of the pump by allowing access to all internal components without removal from the baseplate.
