PA101 / PA 101 Fluid-o-Tech 45 GPH 0.75 GPM Standard Bypass Compact Brass Rotary Vane Pump

Compact Direct-Mount Pump for Espresso, Beverage & Small RO Systems

The Fluid-o-Tech PA101 is a compact, positive displacement rotary vane pump built for reliable performance in low-to-moderate flow applications. It's a common choice for commercial espresso machines, beverage dispensing equipment, cooling systems, and small-scale reverse osmosis units, where consistent, pulsation-free flow matters in a tight footprint.

Constructed with a durable brass housing, a stainless steel rotor, and carbon graphite pumping chamber and vanes, the PA101 is built to resist wear while keeping metal-to-metal contact inside the pump to a minimum. It mounts directly to an external motor via a carbonator-style clamp, simplifying installation into an existing equipment package. The pump includes a standard bypass valve and is rated to a maximum static pressure of 290 PSI (20 bar), with a maximum continuous operating pressure of 230 PSI (16 bar).

The PA101 is NSF compliant, supporting its use in potable water and beverage-contact applications where material safety matters. At a rated flow of 45 GPH (0.75 GPM), it delivers steady output suited to point-of-use and small equipment applications rather than high-volume commercial systems.
