The Vane Pump (Product Code: SLE/EFM/01) is a fixed displacement, balanced vane pump that delivers a set volume of oil for every full turn of its shaft. It is built for use with the Positive Displacement Pump Module, where students run it for experiments, demonstrations and project work on hydraulic machines. Produced by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, it belongs to our engineering lab equipment for India’s polytechnics, engineering colleges and technical training centres.
| Parameter | Detail |
|---|---|
| Pump type | Positive displacement, fixed displacement balanced vane |

| Delivery | A given volume of fluid for each full rotation of the pump shaft |
| Flow direction | Set by pump rotation; tested in one direction, determined by the Universal Dynamometer |
| Connections | Self-sealing, to reduce oil spillage and simplify installation on the pump module |
| For use with | Positive Displacement Pump Module |
| Dimensions | 300 mm x 300 mm x 300 mm (approx) |
| Weight | 9 kg |
Once the pump is mounted on the Positive Displacement Pump Module and coupled to the Universal Dynamometer, students can vary shaft speed and delivery pressure and record how flow, torque and power respond. Because a positive displacement pump moves a fixed volume per revolution, the class can compare the theoretical flow with the measured flow to find volumetric efficiency, and see how internal leakage grows as pressure rises. In a balanced vane design, opposing pressure zones inside the housing help even out the side loads on the rotor, a point worth discussing when comparing it with other pump types.
Among lab equipment for technical institutes, interchangeable pumps like this one let a single test module cover several machines in one term. The self-sealing connections keep oil where it belongs during changeovers, so students can remove and fit the pump without draining the circuit. Wipe connections before fitting, keep the oil clean, and follow the direction of rotation set by the dynamometer.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, known to customers by its ScienceLab brand, manufactures teaching equipment in Ambala, Haryana.

What does the Vane Pump need in order to run?
It is designed for the Positive Displacement Pump Module and is tested in the direction determined by the Universal Dynamometer. Please contact us to confirm what your existing set-up already includes.
Is the Positive Displacement Pump Module part of this item?
This listing covers the vane pump itself. Ask us about the module and drive when you request a quotation.
Which fluid does it pump?
Oil. The exact grade to use is best confirmed with our team before commissioning.
How large and heavy is it?
Approximately 300 mm x 300 mm x 300 mm, weighing 9 kg.
Can the flow direction be reversed?
Pump rotation sets the flow direction, but the pump is tested in one direction only, as determined by the Universal Dynamometer.
What warranty and documentation are provided?
Warranty terms and any test documentation are stated on the quotation; raise specific needs when you enquire.
Do you supply engineering colleges outside India?
Yes. We supply institutions in India and international markets; include the destination in your enquiry.
