RF36.400N Industrial Triplex Plunger Pump — 9.5 GPM @ 1450 RPM | 11.5 GPM @ 1750 RPM | 5800 PSI
The AR RF36.400N is a high-output industrial triplex plunger pump from
Annovi Reverberi’s Series 538 RF platform, purpose-built for large-area industrial
cleaning, heavy equipment washdown, surface preparation, and process facility
maintenance that demands sustained high-flow, high-pressure performance across
continuous operational shifts. The RF36.400N is dual-rated — delivering
9.5 GPM at 1450 RPM or 11.5 GPM at 1750 RPM, both at
a maximum of 5800 PSI (400 Bar) — giving system designers and OEM
builders the flexibility to optimize throughput by selecting drive speed, without
changing the pump.
Built on a 30 mm solid N-version shaft, a precision brass manifold,
full ceramic plungers, and bronze connecting rods, the RF36.400N
delivers the volumetric output, pressure consistency, and mechanical endurance that
industrial contractors, fleet maintenance operations, process facilities, and
environmental service providers rely on shift after shift. At 48.5 lbs with a compact
industrial footprint, it integrates cleanly into belt-drive, gearbox, and hydraulic
motor configurations across a wide range of skid, trailer, and fixed-plant
installation formats.

RF36.400N Dual-RPM Rating — System Design Guidance
- One pump, two operating points: The RF36.400N is
manufacturer-approved for operation at both 1450 RPM and 1750 RPM — allowing
OEM builders and system designers to spec a single pump for two drive
configurations or increase output without replacing hardware - Flow scales with shaft speed; pressure is constant: At
1450 RPM the RF36.400N delivers 9.5 GPM. Increasing shaft speed to 1750 RPM
raises output to approximately 11.5 GPM. The 5800 PSI maximum pressure rating
applies unchanged at both speeds - 1450 RPM operation: Optimized for belt-drive diesel engines,
standard-speed electric motors, and systems where lower noise, longer seal life,
and reduced thermal load are priorities alongside high flow - 1750 RPM operation: Suited for higher-speed electric motor
drives where maximum throughput is the priority — delivering approximately
21% more flow from the same RF36.400N pump - Drive sizing at 1750 RPM: Ensure your motor, coupling, belt,
and sheave components are rated for the increased torque and power demand at
the higher speed — verify EBHP requirement against your drive selection
before commissioning - System components at 1750 RPM: Hose, valves, unloader,
and fittings must all be rated for 5800 PSI at the higher flow rate — verify
all downstream component ratings before upgrading drive speed on an
existing installation - Note: The 1750 RPM dual rating is manufacturer-approved
by Annovi Reverberi and will appear in official AR product literature
beginning 2027
RF36.400N Triplex Plunger & Wet-End Construction
- Full ceramic plungers — 22 mm bore, 23 mm stroke — deliver
exceptional hardness, dimensional stability, and corrosion resistance for
repetitive high-pressure cycling at both 1450 and 1750 RPM in continuous
industrial service - Precision brass manifold maintains sealing tolerances under
sustained 5800 PSI pressure, thermal cycling, and long-duration operation —
resisting distortion and internal leakage even at full rated output across
extended shifts - Inlet and discharge valves with optimized timing and porting
support efficient filling and discharge across the full dual-speed operating
range — maintaining volumetric efficiency at both 1450 and 1750 RPM - Double gasket sealing system provides redundant pressure
containment at the plunger-manifold interface — a critical reliability feature
at sustained 5800 PSI operating pressures - Valve caps on suction and delivery sides allow direct
access to valve assemblies for inspection and replacement without removing
the RF36.400N from the system — significantly reducing service time
and downtime costs - Bronze connecting rods driven by a precision-ground
crankshaft deliver smooth, durable power transfer to the ceramic plungers
at both rated speeds, maintaining accurate stroke and plunger alignment
for consistent volumetric output
RF36.400N Crankcase, Shaft & Lubrication System
- 30 mm solid N-version crankshaft — high-strength pressed
steel providing the torsional rigidity and dynamic balance required for
sustained operation at up to 1750 RPM under full 5800 PSI working load - Die-cast aluminum-alloy crankcase and side covers deliver
structural stiffness, efficient heat dissipation, and vibration damping —
essential when the RF36.400N is mounted on steel skids, plant frames,
trailer rigs, or mobile industrial platforms - Oversized main bearings absorb both radial and axial loads
generated by belt tension and high working pressure — maintaining shaft
alignment and bearing life across long service intervals at both
rated operating speeds - Oil-bath crankcase lubrication with 50 oz capacity keeps
journals and bearings continuously supplied through extended high-load
operation at 1450 and 1750 RPM — supporting stable oil temperatures and
long component life - Side cover oil level indicator option and rear cover oil
drain simplify routine checks and scheduled changes without removing the
RF36.400N from service - Initial oil change at 50 operating hours, then per
duty-cycle schedule — use SAE 30 non-detergent or AR-approved pump oil
for optimal crankshaft and bearing protection
RF36.400N System Integration & Drive Compatibility
- Belt-drive compatible: 30 mm solid shaft supports robust
sheave and belt hardware rated for the torque demands at both 1450 and
1750 RPM — the most common drive configuration for diesel engine and
multi-speed industrial installations - Electric motor direct-drive and gearbox compatible: Couples
to standard electric motors via flexible elastic couplings or gearboxes for
fixed industrial plant installations at either rated speed - Hydraulic motor drive: Supports hydraulic motor integration
for mobile equipment and remote-mounted systems where electric power
is unavailable - FNPT threaded ports on inlet and discharge connect directly
to existing manifolds, header systems, and wash bay plumbing without
proprietary fittings or adapters - Compact footprint at 48.5 lbs enables mounting on enclosed
cabinets, mobile platforms, and fixed industrial frames while maintaining
adequate clearance for safety guards and service access - Multi-pump configurations: The RF36.400N operates as a
single high-capacity unit or within a parallel pump arrangement for system
redundancy, staged operation, or flow multiplication across
large industrial facilities - Full AR accessory compatibility: Pairs with AR unloaders,
pressure regulators, safety relief valves, and bypass systems for complete,
code-compliant high-pressure system builds
RF36.400N Plumbing, Filtration & System Protection
- 1″ F inlet must be fed from a generously sized,
low-restriction supply line — adequate inlet flow and pressure are essential
to prevent cavitation, especially at 1750 RPM where volumetric demand
increases to 11.5 GPM - Inlet filtration required: Install a minimum 20-mesh
strainer upstream to protect ceramic plungers and brass valves from
abrasive particle damage and accelerated wear at both rated speeds - 1/2″ F discharge must connect to hose, tubing, and
fittings rated for 5800 PSI working pressure with appropriate safety factors
for the system design and applicable codes - Unloader or pressure regulator required: System design
must include a properly matched unloader, safety relief device, and
bypass-to-tank arrangement to protect the RF36.400N during low-flow
or bypass conditions at either operating speed - Bypass cooling strategy: For systems with frequent or
extended bypass operation at 1750 RPM, size bypass lines, tank volume,
and cooling capacity for the higher flow rate to prevent thermal buildup
in recirculating fluid
RF36.400N Maintenance & Serviceability
- Valve cap access points on both suction and delivery
sides provide direct valve inspection, cleaning, and replacement access
without removing the RF36.400N from the system or requiring full
pump disassembly - Routine service checklist: Verify oil level via side-cover
indicator, inspect inlet filter condition, monitor discharge pressure trends,
and check drive belt condition and alignment at regular intervals - Pressure trend monitoring: Declining discharge pressure
at consistent RPM is an early indicator of valve wear, seal degradation,
or inlet restriction — address promptly to prevent pump damage and
unplanned downtime - Drive component inspection at 1750 RPM: Belt tension,
sheave alignment, coupling fasteners, and mounting hardware experience
higher dynamic loads at 1750 RPM — inspect at shortened intervals when
operating at the higher rated speed - OEM AR seal and valve kits should be stocked as part
of your facility’s spare parts inventory — facilities running multiple
RF Series units should standardize on common kits to streamline
fleet service and minimize sourcing delays
