The Vickers (Eaton) V230-6-1A-12-S214 is a heavy-duty, fixed displacement industrial vane pump designed for medium-to-high pressure applications in open-circuit hydraulic systems. Renowned worldwide for its rugged mechanical simplicity, the V230 platform delivers highly efficient, low-pulsation fluid flow, making it an essential component for both new system integration and high-stakes factory Maintenance, Repair, and Operations (MRO).
This model utilizes an advanced intra-vane cartridge design. By tracking the internal cam contours with minimal friction and automated pressure-loading balancing, it maintains high volumetric tracking even as operational fluid temperatures rise. The robust single-pump housing layout makes it exceptionally easy to integrate into existing industrial machinery mounting brackets.
Core Technical Features & Advantages
-
Intra-Vane Cartridge Technology: Built-in pressure balancing zones reduce vane-tip loading on the cam ring. This minimizes structural friction wear, resulting in a substantially longer service life compared to standard vane pumps.
-
Excellent Acoustic Profile: The precise geometry of the internal rotor slots and port timing paths controls rapid fluid deceleration, reducing systemic operating noise on factory floors.
-
Simplified Field Serviceability: The pump’s internal components are contained within an easily removable cartridge kit. This allows plant maintenance teams to overhaul or refresh the pump in-situ without disconnecting the primary hydraulic plumbing.
-
Extended Speed and Thermal Envelope: Specially treated inner surface elements allow the pump to maintain performance across wide rotational speed boundaries and variable fluid viscosities.
-
Dual Case Seals & Shaft Bearing: Features heavy-duty shaft bearings that accommodate mild radial and axial shaft stresses, preventing premature seal failures and ensuring smooth mechanical coupling.
