VORTEX E-series

The Turbulence™ filter is built in.This is the High-Spec Series that washes chips away automatically.

An All-in-one, High-to-medium
Pressure Coolant Pump

Vortex unit. No line and suction filters are required. The use of a Vortex unit reduces the required space to about 1/50th by volume of that occupied by a conventional coolant system. The saved space expands the available plant space, resulting in a higher production efficiency.

  • Maximum operating pressure: 7.0MPa
  • Maximum discharge: 18 liters/min.
  • No suction filter is required.
  • No line filter is required.
  • No clean tank is required.
  • No transfer pump is required on the dirty-tank end.
  • No plumbing is required to interconnect various components.

*Aqueous solution with 2% or more water-soluble coolant fluid. The water-insoluble coolant fluid of less than 15mm2/s viscosity

Automatic Self-cleaning
Turbulence™ Filter

Our special Turbulence™ design generates turbulence. The combined action of the turbulence and centrifugal force washes away chips from the filter automatically. The result is a maintenance-free unit with a stable high pressure and large flow rate.
*Chips larger than 20μm in size removed (when using aqueous solution containing 2% or more water-soluble coolant fluid).

Two Types of Pump to Choose

You have two options — the powerful plunger pump and the high-efficiency Trochoid™ pump — depending on your application.

  • Compatible types of fluid
    • Aqueous solution containing 2% or more water-soluble coolant fluid
      Water-insoluble coolant fluid of 15mm2/s or less viscosity*
    • Not for lubricant oil or fuel oil
    • Not for clear water, purified water, water solutions without rust-preventive property, viscous fluids, corrosive liquid, solvents, and oils
    • *EP is limited to use with water-soluble coolants.
  • Relief valve is built into the unit

Huge Energy Saving Effect
Reduces Utility Costs*

The use of a Vortex results in huge energy savings over the conventional centrifugal pumps. The electric power cost is greatly reduced.

  • Operating cycle: Unload: 20 sec. → Drill 1 Center Through: 20 sec. → Unload: 20 sec. → Drill 2 Center Through: 20 sec.
  • Center Through pressure: 1.1MPa
  • *Calculated on the basis of operating time 8h/day, operating days 365/year, and the electric power cost ¥20/kWh.
