Haight Pump 40U-VLS-OT-SS Viton Lip Seal Gear Pump
The Haight Pump 40U-VLS-OT-SS is a heavy-duty internal gear pump designed for industrial fluid-transfer applications where dependable positive-displacement pumping is required. The 40U series uses a rugged ductile iron housing with an internal gear arrangement designed to provide consistent fluid movement and strong suction characteristics. The 40U family is rated for applications up to 40 GPM, depending on operating conditions and fluid characteristics.
This particular configuration uses a Viton lip seal and incorporates the stainless-steel plug and OT configuration identified by its model designation. The pump design is suitable for a wide range of industrial duties, including lubrication, hydraulic equipment, petroleum and fuel transfer, machinery, chemical-related applications, and other process-fluid systems. The 40U design can operate in either direction, allowing flow direction to be changed without rearranging the connected piping.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What type of pump is the Haight 40U-VLS-OT-SS?
A: It is an internal gear positive displacement pump from the Haight 40U series, intended for industrial fluid-transfer and process applications.
Q: What does the VLS designation indicate?
A: VLS identifies the Viton lip seal configuration used with this Haight pump. Viton sealing components are available across Haight pump configurations for applications requiring the appropriate chemical and temperature resistance.
Q: Can the Haight 40U pump change its direction of flow?
A: Yes. The 40U internal gear design supports reversible operation, allowing the pumping direction to be changed without changing the connected piping.
Q: Is the 40U-VLS-OT-SS supplied with a motor?
A: The 40U is available as a pump end, with mounting arrangements available for coupling to suitable motors or other drive equipment. The specific 40U-VLS-OT-SS listing identifies the product as a pump rather than a complete motorized package.
Q: What seal options are available for the Haight 40U series?
A: Haight 40U-series pumps can be configured with different seal materials, including Viton lip seals, mechanical seals, and other seal arrangements depending on the application and pump configuration.
