Robbins & Myers 33201 Moyno 500 Progressing Cavity Pump 4.5 GPM Cast Iron
This 33201 is a Moyno 500 positive displacement pump with a cast iron body, chrome plated 416 stainless steel rotor and NBR nitrile stator. Because it displaces a fixed volume per revolution, output stays proportional to speed and the flow arrives smooth and nonpulsating rather than in the surges a diaphragm pump produces.
The 33201 is rated at 100 psig at 2.2 GPM with up to 4.5 GPM available, with 3/4 in FNPT suction and 3/4 in FNPT discharge connections and a maximum speed of 1750 RPM. Elastomer choice governs the liquids it can handle, with nitrile suited to roughly 10 to 160 F, EPDM to 10 to 210 F and fluoroelastomer to 10 to 240 F, and chemical compatibility mattering as much as temperature. Self priming to 25 feet of suction lift once wetted, it should never be started dry and should not be run below about ten percent of rated flow.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does it need a relief valve?
A relief or bypass on the discharge is strongly recommended on any positive displacement installation. Without one, a blocked or closed discharge has nowhere to go and the pressure rises until the pump, the drive or the pipework fails.
Q: Will it pass solids without blocking?
Within reason, yes. There are no valves and no close clearances of the kind that block a gear pump, so soft solids and suspended particles travel through the cavities. Abrasive solids will shorten stator life, which is a wear question rather than a blockage one.
Q: What happens if it runs backwards?
The pump will try to push liquid towards the suction line and can pressurise pipework never intended for it. Confirm rotation after any rewiring or motor change, before the pump is asked to move liquid.
Q: How is the flow rate adjusted for a dosing duty?
Through shaft speed. Output is close to proportional to speed across the range, which is what makes these pumps straightforward to meter with a variable speed drive.
