Cavity pumps – Type N and NF
The ARMATEC cavity pumps are used since several years in all sectors of industry.
For Biogas plants and Industy we offer two types of Standard Cavity pumps:
Type N
Foot-mounting gearmotor and mounted on a baseframe
- N 140
- N 120

The eccentric screw pumps from N series are high quality and very robust pumps, which are characterized by the following features:
- Large sized suction housing
- Up to 5 suction ports possible
- Generously dimensioned storage chair
- Drive shaft with coupling
- Use of a foot motor for easy installation
- Construction on a stable base frame
Type NF
Flange-mounting gearmotors
- NF 80
- NF 100

353/5000
The NF eccentric screw pump is a compact and cost cavity pump that is easy to install and does not require a separate base frame. With flow rates of up to 30 m³ / h, this series is a good alternative to the N series. In this series, the geared motor is bolted directly to the eccentric screw pump via a flange
Characteristics:
- 3 – 24 bar
- 4 – 360 m³/h
- Rotor: hollow or full rotors in steel / stainless steel (ss304/ss316) and hardened – depending on the application
- Different joints
- Oil-chamber housing with mechanical seals
- Stators in different elastomers (NBR, EPDM, PTFE, PU, CSM) – also available in adjustable versions for a longer service life
- Installation and maintenance without special tools
Dry running protection
The resistance thermometer PT 100 is used for direct temperature measurement in the stator. The thermometer includes an evaluation unit with connection cable.
Pressure gauge
As another accessory is our pressure gauge with switching contact for pressure monitoring.
