Engineered for Demanding Environments

​

Vectra XL pumps and compressors are designed to stand up to the harsh environments found in the chemical process and oil & gas industries.

  • Engineered to excel in applications that require discharging against a positive back pressure

  • Available in both ductile iron and stainless steel

  • Can accommodate a variety of mechanical seals


The Vectra XL series meets high combustible range standards and at ATEX certified. These vacuum pumps and compressors are in accordance with guidelines 94/9/EG, category 1 and 2 and were designed with API 681 specifications in mind. 
 

Easy to Maintain - Low Total Cost of Ownership

​

The Vectra XL pump was engineered to be easy to maintain, with improvements that optimize performance and reliability.

  • External mechanical seals for flexibility and ease of maintenance

  • Pump body is engineered to reduce forces on the pump shaft

  • Lobe purges reduce erosion wear

​

Operates as a vacuum pump and compressor with a discharge pressure range of 43.5 psia (3 bar abs.)

​

Some applications require vacuum and compression in one process. Instead of handling the gas with two separate machines, our liquid ring vacuum pump and compressor models can do the job with only one pump - reducing cost and simplifying installation. 
 

Reliable and Efficient with Proven Performance

​

Based on proven reliable NASH conical liquid ring pump designs, the Vectra series delivers superior performance and reliability through several engineering upgrades.

  • Improved cone angles, which decrease the size of the pump,

  • NASH patented Gas Scavenging Technology dramatically improves pump performance at high vacuum levels

 

Conical porting and rotor configuration

​

Patented in 1932, Nash’s variable conical porting design allows the force of compression to counter the weight of the rotor and shaft to help minimize load on bearings during operation. The variable porting optimizes pump performance across the entire operating range. With constant innovation, Nash’s patented design features:

  • Option for lobe purge to minimize damage from erosion in duties with solids present

  • Large differential pressure capability

  • Gas scavenging feature minimizes slip of gas from discharge to inlet improving capacity, especially at deep vacuum

  • High liquid carryover tolerance

  • Side discharge to minimize chance of flooded start

  • Self-priming design may allow elimination of booster pump in recirculated systems
