PROFILE OF OUR CAPABILITIES

Two years after it was founded in 1902, Kinney introduced the world's first rotary pump. Then in 1926, Kinney developed a vacuum pump for use in large commercial operations. Just as these pumps helped change the face of America by making it possible to mass produce products such as light bulbs, radio tubes, refrigerator and air conditioner components, constant research and innovative manufacturing techniques has continued to spearhead Kinney's leadership in the design and manufacture of oil-sealed rotary piston vacuum pumps. And today, the remarkable long life and reliability of Kinney pumps is testimony to the soundness of the basic rotary piston principle with the elimination of metal-to-metal contact in the pumping chamber. The Kinney line of oil-sealed piston pumps covers a wide range of sizes in both single stage and compound pump design and as part of Tuthill Vacuum & Blower Systems, our full line capability lets us service a host of major industries worldwide (see Application chart on pages 4-5). Our wide selection offers Kinney customers a highly reliable, single source for pumps as well as their installation, service and technical know-how. You can rely on the Kinney line!

KINNEY INTRODUCTION 1

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION

The Efficiency and Long-Term Reliability of the Kinney Rotary Piston Pump is the Result of the Time-Tested Design. 1. The rotary piston does not spin on its axis. It moves in a circular path within the pumping chamber. 2. As it passes top dead center, it creates a constantly increasing internal space on the inlet or suction side. 3. ...and a constantly decreasing internal space on the pressure or discharge side. 4. A high-integrity seal is maintained between the suction and pressure sides by a film of oil that is captured between the piston and the cylinder. 5. There is no contact between the piston and the cylinder. 6. The oil film is maintained by oil dragged into the clearance by the moving piston which creates a hydrodynamic wedge. 7. At the end of compression cycle, the clearance volume is completely filled with oil, making very high compression ratios available.

These three facts, the oil seal, the filling of the clearance volume, and no contact between piston and wall, are what give the rotary piston pump its low blank off, high pumping speeds at low pressures and great durability.

SINGLE-STAGE OR TWO-STAGE PUMPS

Depending on your application and what vacuum level you need to attain, Kinney Pumps are available in either single-stage or two-stage design. The twostage pumps will achieve a lower vacuum level due to the two piston chambers which are arranged in series with a connecting channel.

PLUS FEATURES
TRIPLEX DESIGN MEANS VIRTUALLY VIBRATION-FREE OPERATION

Kinney KT Pumps have three sets of cams and pistons driven by a common shaft. One cam and piston set is no longer than the other two and the cams are set 180 apart. The dynamic forces produced by the rotation of the long cam and piston are balanced by opposing forces produced by the short cams and pistons on either side. The resulting out-of-balance force is very small, making it possible to mount the pump on springs or vibramounts which substantially reduce the dynamic forces transmitted to the floor. See back page flap for Options and Accessories

HIGH PRESSURE OIL PUMPS ASSURE PROPER LUBRICATIONS

Pumps are lubricated by forced oil feed at all pressures. This forced feed ensures constant oil flow even at high suction pressures.

NO ANCHOR BOLTS

KT Pumps do not require lagging, anchor bolts or special foundations and may be located on any floor that will support their weight.

INTEGRAL OIL-MIST-ELIMINATOR CONVERSES OIL, PROVIDES CLEAN DISCHARGE

All Kinney KT Series Low Profile Pumps have as standard an integral three-stage oil-mist-eliminator, which captures and returns the oil to the oil reservoir. The first stage is an impingement umbrella on which the largest oil droplets are removed. The second stage is a stainless steel pad, which collects small droplets. The third and final stage is a coalescing filter of glass fibers which removes all visible oil smoke from the discharge gas. Oil collected from all three stages automatically drains back to the oil reservoir.

PLUS FEATURES
HIGH VAPOR HANDLING

Kinney Piston Pumps are equipped with three features to handle high vapor loads. First, the adjustable gas ballast valve can introduce air to the pumping chamber, which helps prevent vapor from condensing in the pump oil. Second, Piston Pumps have a large oil capacity, which has a higher tolerance to contamination. The large reservoir can collect a significant volume of condensed liquid, which can be drained from the pump. Third, Piston Pumps can operate as part of a vapor handling system, in which the oil reservoir is maintained under vacuum. This is made possible by the oil pump and the design of the oil reservoir to operate under vacuum. Vapor handling systems, which keep the oil dry, can operate in corrosive applications.

OIL-SEALED TWO-STAGE ROTARY PISTON VACUUM PUMPS
KTC-21, KTC-60, KTC-112

HIGHLIGHTS Triplex Piston Design for Quiet, Vibration-Free Operation High Pumping Speed at Pressure Below 10 Microns, Lower than Attainable with Single-Stage Pumps Ultimate Pressure: .2 Microns (McLeod Gauge) Can Operate at Any Pressure up to Atmosphere Adjustable Gas Ballast Permits Handling of Condensable Vapors No Metal-to-Metal Contact in Pumping Chambers Unequalled Durability, Even in Dirty Applications Typical Applications: Brake Filling Systems, Low Pressure Chemical Vapor, Silicon Crystal Growing, Air Conditioning
The KTC series two-stage high vacuum pumps are of "triplex" design, a single shaft with three sets of cams and pistons, one set larger than the other. Pumps in this series maintain lower pressures than are attainable with single-stage pumps. In operation, one of the smaller pumping chambers is in series with (backing) the other two, which function in parallel. A unique internal balancing technique reduces the magnitude of pump movement (deflection) to 0.0002'' while simultaneously reducing the dynamic forces transmitted through the flexible mounting pads furnished with each pump to less than one pound. These pumps are vibration-free, air-cooled, (except the KTC-12 which is water-cooled), and equipped with an adjustable gas ballast providing vapor handling capability while reducing oil changes by preventing condensable vapors from contaminating the oil.
SPECIFICATIONS

(Explosion proof option shown)

Other superior quality features include a special umbrella type discharge baffle to reduce oil loss to levels not attainable in other pumps, solenoid valves to protect against oil flooding and the single gas ballast adjustment that assures balanced air flow and simple regulation. The pump operates within the rating of its standard TEFC motor throughout the complete operating pressure range.

PLUS FEATURES
TRIPLEX DESIGN MEANS VIRTUALLY VIBRATION-FREE OPERATION

Kinney Piston Pumps have three sets of cams and pistons driven by a common shaft. One cam and piston set is no longer than the other two and the cams are set 180 apart. The dynamic forces produced by the rotation of the long cam and piston are balanced by opposing forces produced by the short cams and pistons on either side. The resulting out-of-balance force is very small, making it possible to mount the pump on springs or vibramounts which substantially reduce the dynamic forces transmitted to the floor. See back page flap for Options and Accessories

NO ANCHOR BOLTS

KT Pumps do not require lagging, anchor bolts or special foundations and may be located on any floor that will support their weight.

HIGH VAPOR HANDLING

Kinney KT Pumps are equipped with three features to handle high vapor loads. First, the adjustable gas ballast valve can introduce air to the pumping chamber, which helps prevent vapor from condensing in the pump oil. Second, KT Pumps have a large oil capacity, which has a higher tolerance to contamination. The large reservoir can collect a significant volume of condensed liquid, which can be drained from the pump. Third, KT Pumps can operate as part of a vapor handling system, in which the oil reservoir is maintained under vacuum. This is made possible by the oil pump and the design of the oil reservoir to operate under vacuum. Vapor handling systems, which keep the oil dry, can operate in corrosive applications.

STRONGER 4-PIECE CAGED SLIDE PINS

Slide pins in all Kinney Rotary Piston Pumps have 4-pieced caged construction, with end pieces that keep both segments in perfect alignment.
