The unique design of Blackmer’s sliding vane and eccentric disc pumps offer a high level of energy savings thanks to their volumetric efficiency, consistent performance over time and high mechanical efficiency. In fact, sliding vane pumps are up to 24% more efficient than gear pumps on thin to moderately viscous fluids. Eccentric disc pumps are up to 30% more efficient than lobe pumps on thin fluids.
