Wangen Progressive Cavity Pumps

Unbeatable running efficiency.

    Engineering Brilliance

    For New Zealand industries where abrasion, fibrous content, and maintenance costs are key concerns, Wangen Progressive Cavity (PC) pumps offer a economically and technically superior solution.

    Their robust mechanical design with bearing isolation, durable cardan joints, and hardened rotors contribute to exceptional wear life. Wangen PC pumps also run at lower RPMs, resulting in less heat, vibration, and ultimately, wear. The quick-change cartridge seals further reduce downtime during maintenance, enhancing overall efficiency.

    Joint Technology

    Blockage-free operation

    Wangen’s fully encapsulated cardan joint has needle roller bearings and a protective sleeve. It is engineered for continuous, blockage-free operation in abrasive and fibrous media - minimising wear  and eliminating common failure points associated with conventional pin joints. Wangen has also integrated a separate bearing housing between the pump and gearbox to isolate axial and radial loads from the drive, again, significantly reducing wear and extending service life.

    • Fully sleeved universal joint with needle roller bearings designed for long-term durability
    • High power transmission designed to maintain efficiency at high pressures.
    • The joint easily handles radial and thrust loading.

    Seal Technology

    Maintenance-free Mechanical Seal

    Wangen's LWD Cartridge mechanical seal offers a compact, pre-assembled design that enables fast, tool-free replacement. Pump reliability is improved and downtime reduced due to minimal leakage and wear. The net result is a highly efficient and user-friendly sealing solution, ideal for demanding applications .

    • Pre-assembled, oil-lubricated mechanical seal in a sealed chamber.
    • Prevents ingress of solids and simplifies replacement.
    • Simple replacement (a single piece).
    • Ideal for abrasive applications.
