Progressive Cavity Pumps
Engineered for demanding environments, our range of Progressive Cavity (PC) pumps is specifically designed to handle viscous, abrasive, and shear-sensitive fluids. Utilizing an advanced helical rotor design, these pumps deliver exceptional suction capabilities across a broad spectrum of industries.
Authorised Partners — Mono NOV & Orbit Viga: Cyclone Industries supplies and supports the full Mono NOV and Orbit Viga progressive cavity pump ranges, delivering world-class PC pump technology to South African industrial markets.
Product Overview
Our Progressive Cavity pump range is purpose-built to handle the most challenging fluid transfer duties with precision and reliability. Whether you need dependable high-pressure water transfer or the delicate handling of specialized chemicals, our PC pumps provide consistent performance at your maximum duty requirements. The modular construction ensures seamless component interchangeability, making maintenance quick and cost-effective.
These pumps feature a highly compact footprint to facilitate integration within spatially constrained installations. The hydraulic design utilizes a low-shear pumping mechanism that preserves the integrity of delicate, shear-sensitive media during transfer without degradation. Operational efficiency is further maximized by the system's inherent self-priming capabilities, which guarantee rapid startup and consistent volumetric flow.
Core Engineering Features
Advanced Helical Rotor Design
The precision-engineered helical rotor and stator geometry creates a continuous, sealed cavity that moves fluid axially at a steady rate. This positive displacement action delivers consistent volumetric output regardless of viscosity changes, pressure fluctuations, or the presence of solids.
Low-Shear & Gentle Pumping
The smooth, pulsation-free transfer mechanism is uniquely suited to shear-sensitive fluids including polymers, biological media, food products, and chemical slurries. Fluid integrity is fully preserved throughout the pumping cycle, eliminating product degradation caused by turbulent or high-velocity flow.
Exceptional Suction Capability
Built-in self-priming capability allows these pumps to draw down from significant suction lifts without requiring external priming systems. Rapid startup is assured even in challenging installation configurations, minimizing commissioning time and operational complexity.
Modular & Maintainable Construction
The modular architecture allows for the rapid interchange of wetted components — rotor, stator, and seals — without specialized tooling. Standardized component interchangeability across the range significantly reduces spare part inventory requirements and minimizes planned maintenance downtime.
Compact High-Power Density
PC pumps deliver exceptional flow capacity relative to their physical footprint, making them ideal for spatially constrained plant installations and retrofit projects. The compact package integrates seamlessly into existing process skids without requiring significant civil or structural modification.
Broad Material Compatibility
Stator elastomers are available in a comprehensive range of materials — including natural rubber, Nitrile (NBR), EPDM, Neoprene, and Viton — to ensure chemical compatibility with the widest possible range of process fluids, from aggressive acids to abrasive mining slurries.
Performance Specifications
Engineered to meet rigorous hydraulic and high-pressure requirements, the pump series delivers robust operational performance across a wide range of industrial duties.
