Product description

  • Hook and claw pumps, also known as rotary claw pumps, are mechanical devices used to generate vacuum or compress gases.
  • They work by using two interlocking claws or hooks that rotate in opposite directions to draw in and compress gas or vapor.
  • These pumps are often used in industrial and scientific applications where a dry, oil-free vacuum is required, such as in the food, pharmaceutical, and chemical processing industries.
  • Hook and claw pumps are known for their durability and low maintenance requirements, as they have few moving parts and do not require the use of a sealing liquid.
  • The VCX Series of hook and claw pumps is constructed in modular compartments, with the pumping and gear chambers separated by labyrinth seals. This helps to ensure reliable operation and extend the life of the pump.
  • These pumps are a good alternative to liquid ring vacuum pumps, as they do not generate any effluent and do not require the use of a sealing liquid. They are also well-suited for rough operation in low vacuum conditions.
