Quieter, More Durable, Second Generation Radial Piston Pump

 

The Moog Radial Piston Pump, also known as RKP, has served the industrial market for over three decades and is widely known for its robust and reliable design. Moog’s improvements to this product line are evident with the introduction of the RKP-II.

Available in sizes 32, 45, 63, 80, 100 and 140 cc per revolution, the RKP-II offers greater durability and quieter performance. The optimized pump housing design has nine instead of seven pistons, which improves fluid delivery and reduces hydraulic flow pulsation. Another significant improvement includes a redesigned sliding stroke ring.

The RKP-II is the ideal choice for integrating with machines and installations such as machine tools, plastics and metal forming, injection and pressure casting, testing, construction and mining, and rubber processing.

Benefits
• Significantly reduced sound level for noise critical applications and to help machine builders with implementation of the European Union’s (EU) noise guideline (2003/10/EC)
• High-energy efficiency to save on operating costs
• High flexibility in design due to a large number of sizes, control types and mounting flanges, as well as approved versions for a variety of operating liquids
• Improved durability, low maintenance requirements and long pump life help significantly reduce maintenance costs and encourage more uptime
• Increased stability, even under unfavorable operating conditions
• Simplified connection for easy set-up and commissioning
• Explosion-proof and Digital Control versions available
