Progressive Cavity Pump Stator
- Metal stator
- PTFE stator
- Rubber stator
A stator is one of the most important components to a progressive cavity pump, and is often divided into two types: a rubber stator, or a rigid stator. We offer customized stators according to actual field conditions and the transmission medium.
1. Rubber stator: Stators are a vulnerable part of progressive cavity pump. When the stator surface becomes worn, the sealing performance between the rotor and the stator decreases, which results in a decreased flow. Different rubbers, such as NBR, NBRH, HNBR, EPDM and FKM with corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance need to be chosen to suit different mediums.
2. Rigid stator: Rigid stators include a metal stator or PTFE stator. A rigid stator is recommended in specialized work environments, such as the transportation of hot oil, high temperature bitumen, high temperature heavy oil, concentrated acid or alkali, and a high concentration of chloride ions.
Features of rigid stator
1. It features a high temperature resistance- up to 300℃.
2. The rigid stator can bear a high pressure medium. They feature a small torque and a single stage pressure of up to 12 bar.
3. In a progressive cavity pump with the same flow, a pump with a rigid stator will be smaller than one with a rubber stator.
4. Metal stators feature a quick heat dissipation, no abrasion and a longer service life.
5. PTFE stators are suitable for strong acidic and alkaline environments, as well as mediums with a high chlorine content.
| Material | Corrosion resistance | Swelling resistance | Abrasion resistance | High temperature resistance | Temperature range | Suitable Application |
| NBR | general | good | general | general | +110℃ | Petroleum, sewage, food and beverage, chemical, or paper making industry |
| NBRH | good | excellent | good | general | +120℃ | Oil refining, chemical, waste water |
| EPDM | good | poor | good | general | +120℃ | Chemical industry, chemical reagent, paper making |
| FKM | excellent | excellent | poor | excellent | +180℃ | High temperature and corrosive fluid |
| HNBR | excellent | good | good | excellent | +170℃ | Petroleum, petrochemical and chemical industry |
| PTFE | excellent | excellent | poor | excellent | +230℃ | Acid & alkali and other strong corrosive medium, high temperature and high hygiene requirements of the food and beverage industry |
Note: All information above can be combined based on specific requirements, the particular medium that needs moving, and the working conditions. Please contact us for more details.
