PCM Moineau Pumps
Progressing Cavity Pumps
(Also known as progressive cavity, helical rotor and eccentric screw pumps)
PCM is the original manufacturer of progressing cavity pumps and was started by Dr. Moineau, the inventor of the pump, in 1932. Since that time PCM has developed a wide range of progressing cavity pumps up to 500 m3/h capacity or up to 200 bar discharge pressure for many applications across a great variety of industries.
The pumps are of robust construction for continuous industrial applications and when properly applied have very high levels of reliability and availability. PCM manufacture all their own stators in house for consistent quality of elastomers formulated specifically for this application.
