Frequently asked questions
What is the displacement and recovery rate?+
The manufacturer gives 6.5 cfm free-air displacement and a stated recovery rate of 2 lb per minute or more. As with any recovery pump, the achievable rate in service depends on inlet pressure and on how fast the solvent evaporates upstream, not on pump displacement alone.
What pressures is it rated for?+
The manufacturer states that it recovers solvent at pressures up to 150 psi and that the unit is certified to a pressure of 250 psi, with the certification carried out by 3PCertz, licensed professional engineers.
What motor and area classification does it carry?+
A 2 hp Class I Division 1 explosion-proof motor, listed by the manufacturer as UL and CSA listed and NEMA 7. Maximum speed is 1750 rpm.
What electrical supply does it need?+
Single-phase and three-phase drives are both listed: 1-phase at 115 V or 208-230 V, and 3-phase at 208/230/460 V. Free-load amperage is quoted as 13.4 A at 115 V, 6.7 A at 230 V single phase, and 3.8 A at 230 V or 1.9 A at 460 V three phase.
Why an oil-less compressor?+
The manufacturer specifies an oil-less piston compressor so that compressor lubricant cannot contaminate the recovered solvent. Drive is by belt rather than direct coupling.
What are the process connections and how loud is it?+
Inlet and outlet are 1/2 in tube fittings. The manufacturer quotes approximately 79 dBA in operation.
