What are PCM pumps?

PCM is a leading manufacturer of food pumps and systems for transfer, dosing, mixing and filling of abrasive, fragile, viscous and corrosive fluids for the food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries.

How does a progressing cavity pump work?

A progressing cavity pump is a positive displacement pump employing a rotor and stator assembly to create temporary chambers to draw fluid into, which ‘progress’ through the pump resulting in the fluid being expelled through the discharge port.

Who invented the progressive cavity pump?

René Moineau
Moineau™ progressive cavity pump technology Named for René Moineau, the inventor of the progressive cavity pump, our pumps use an innovative technology.

What is PCM wave?

Pulse-code modulation (PCM) is a method used to digitally represent sampled analog signals. In a PCM stream, the amplitude of the analog signal is sampled regularly at uniform intervals, and each sample is quantized to the nearest value within a range of digital steps.

What is the purpose of a progressive cavity pump?

How do I choose a progressive cavity pump?

The key technical considerations and decisions involved in selecting a progressing cavity pump(PCP) for a particular application include pump displacement, pressure capability, geometric design, elastomer type, and rotor coating characteristics.

Where progressive cavity pumps are used?

Progressive cavity pumps are used for a wide variety of applications, including the following.

  • metering and dosing.
  • wastewater.
  • chemical manufacturing.
  • oil pumping/petroleum production.
  • food and beverage processing.
  • pulp and paper.
  • environmental technology.

Who is the inventor of the PCM Moineau pump?

Named Moineau™ pumps, after the name of the inventor of the progressive cavity pump and PCM founder, René Moineau. The PCM Moineau™ conventional elastomer progressive cavity pump (PCP) allows easy adjustment of production according to rotational speed.

What is the Moineau progressing cavity pump ( PCP )?

Over the last thirty years, new pump technologies have arrived – such as the Moineau™ progressing cavity pump (PCP) – bringing improved efficiency and performance to the market. The Moineau™ pump consists of a single helical steel rotor turning inside a dual helical stator moulded in elastomer.

How does a progressive cavity pump ( PCP ) work?

Today, PCM continues to create and innovate new products and services to meet a wide variety of market needs and applications. The Technology In a progressive cavity pump a rotor turns inside a stator, producing a steady flow based on drive speed. PCP’s are ideal for pumping viscous, particulate, abrasive, and fragile products.

How are Moineau pumps used in the oil field?

PCM provides cost-effective oil pumps integrated within our pumping systems, as well as oilfield services for a range of surface transfer needs, including API 676 compliance. PCM Moineau™ transfer pumps use patented PCP technology to provide optimal performance for all applications.
