Claw Vacuum Pump - KVC
Model: KVC60, KVC62, KVC100, KVC122, KVC150, KVC251, KVC301, KVC401, KVC501, KVC1000
MD-Kinney now proudly offers the KVC Series of dry claw vacuum pumps in the Kinney Vacuum portfolio. The KVC Series claw pumps offer a compact footprint that requires a minimal amount of floor space. Contactless operation means minimal wearing parts and maintenance needed, and oil-free compression. These claw vacuum pumps have a highly efficient design for not only energy efficiency but also efficiency for CFM per HP. Extreme Duty (XD) models available with coated internals and flush ports, designed to handle demanding applications.
Applications: Pick & Place, CNC Router Tables, Industrial Vacuum, Central Vacuum Systems, Thermoforming, Food Packaging, Degasification

Claw Vacuum Pumps | KVC Series
The KVC Series is a contact-free dry claw vacuum pump that operates efficiently and economically. The claw pump has two claw-shaped rotors that turn in opposite directions from one another. These rotors are timed and synchronized using a high-performance gearbox. The KVC Series serves a variety of applications where high-volume air is required in applications up to 27 in. HgV (75 Torr) for continuous operation. There are several pumps with capacity ranges from 43 to 671 CFM.
Benefits of Claw Pumps
Reliable and Efficient
The design of the KVC Series allows for dry compression, meaning no oil or sealing fluid is needed in the compression chamber. This also provides much less wear in the operation. The KVC design optimizes airflow for efficient air cooling. Along with the use of our premium motors, the Kinney design greatly reduces energy consumption and lowers life cycle costs.
Compact Design and Low Noise Levels
The compact design of our claw pumps allows for the most efficient use of installation space and provides easy access to all components of the machine, making it easy to inspect and service. The KVC claw pumps can perform at market-leading sound levels, down to 76 dB(A) during operation.
Claw Rotors
Our claw-shaped rotors are designed for contactless operation and are expertly designed for the tightest fitting tolerances which provides the highest efficiency in claw compression. None of the internal components make contact, extending the service interval and keeps the pump running longer.
KVC Claw Features
- NEMA Premium Motor: High-Efficiency NEMA framed motors included and are compatible with Variable Speed Drives.
- Oil-Free Compression: No contaminants released into the discharge air or process. Providing peace of mind and worry-free maintenance.
- Air Cooled: Pump Cooling Fan linked to the drive motor, as well as vent cover openings to keep the unit cool.
- Fully Synchronized Gears: These gears are synchronized to ensure maximum efficiency in rotor movement. The gearbox is lubricated by Kinney KV-150 premium gear lubricant.
- Lifting Eyebolt: Lifting eyebolt for easy transport and placement. The pumping unit can be lifted and removed from the pump assembly frame and easily repaired during service intervals.
- Sealing System: Viton shaft seal and two labyrinth piston O-rings with atmospheric venting so the shaft seal does not become pressurized.
- Small Footprint: Unique stacked design enables a reduction of required floor space.
- Contactless Operation: Ensures minimal wear of parts within the pumping chamber, reducing maintenance downtime.
- Ultimate Vacuum Down to 27"Hg: Ultimate Vacuum down to 27”Hg / 75 Torr to support your application.
- Low Maintenance: Service/Maintenance intervals up to 20,000 hrs. This leads to low cost of ownership and nearly a “set & forget” product.
- High Efficiency: Top of class CFM/HP efficiency and low power consumption due to our overall rotor and cylinder designs.
- Horizontal Shaft: Optimized lubrication, better heat extraction, dissipation, and extended life of gears, bearings, and seals.
- Low Noise: Integrated internal discharge silencer offers some of the lowest sound levels with this technology and combined with the Kinney base and enclosure design features, can achieve sound levels as low as 76 dB(A).
- Extreme Duty: XD models with coated internals and flush ports for ease of cleaning to prevent internal process build-up in demanding applications.
Dry Claw Vacuum Pumps for Maple Syrup
The conventional way to collect the sap is to drill holes and hang buckets on the maple trees, however, this is time consuming. Download our application case study on Maple Syrup and learn how adding vacuum pumps to your process can save you time and money while collecting sap.
