C-series
World’s First — All-in-one, Medium-pressure Coolant Pump
This is a basic Vortex model consolidating a large coolant system into one unit. Simply replace a conventional medium-pressure pump with a C series pump to reduce the occupied space to 1/100th by volume. The plant space is in effect greatly expanded and production efficiency improves.
- Maximum operating pressure: 2.0MPa
- Maximum discharge: 28.8 liters/min.
- No suction filter is required.
- No clean tank is required.
- No transfer pump is required on the dirty-tank end.
- No plumbing is required to interconnect various components.
*Aqueous solution with 2% or more water-soluble coolant fluid.
Double-cyclone Filter
A proprietary double-cyclone filtering system removes chips*. The first and second cyclones remove relatively large and fine chips, respectively. The line-filter cleaning cycle is extended by 24 times.
*Chips larger than 20μm in size removed (when using aqueous solution containing 2% or more water-soluble coolant fluid).
Line-filter cleaning become once a month*
Compatible types of chips
| Material | Iron | Casting | Aluminum | Copper |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Compatibility | Excellent | Excellent | Good | Excellent |
Filtering performance
| Suction strainer | 2mm (Solids larger than this must be removed in the tank.) |
|---|---|
| Filter | 50μm: 95% (specific gravity 2.7) 100μm: 99% (specific gravity 2.7) Note: No problems in using a Trochoid™ pump |
High-efficiency Trochoid™ Pump
The C Series uses a Trochoid™ pump which excels in fluid control efficiency. The double-cyclone system sorts out chips and enables direct connection to the dirty tank.
- Compatible types of fluid
- Aqueous solution containing 2% or more water-soluble coolant fluid
- Not for water-insoluble coolant fluid, lubricant oil or fuel oil
- Not for clear water, purified water, aqueous solutions without rust-preventive property, viscous fluids, corrosive liquid, solvents, and oils
- Relief valve is built into the unit.

Huge Energy Saving Effect Reduces Utility Costs*
The use of a Vortex results in huge energy savings over the conventional centrifugal pumps. The electric power cost is greatly reduced.
- Operating cycle: Unload: 20 sec. →Drill 1 Center Through: 20 sec. → Unload: 20 sec. → Drill 2 Center Through: 20 sec.
- Center Through pressure: 1.1MPa
*Calculated on the basis of operating time 8h/day, operating days 365/year, and the electric power cost ¥20/kWh.
