Depends on the pump and what you are pumping.

Need much more info.

Yes!

You have now reached your "question without any details" limit for the day.

The question is not if it is possible for someone to achieve this pressure with a vane pump. The question is can the Original Poster (OP) achieve this pressure with a vane pump. I say that the OP does not show us enough knowledge, ability or initiative to achieve this trivial pressure of an unknown fluid. So I say that the OP cannot do this.

You make a valid point. And I must conceed that, taken literally, OP probably isn't capable of producing anywhere near that pressure, by themselves.

Silly me, I assumed that the pump would be driven by a motor.

Theoritically Possible. But in practice - plenty of problem in construction and working.

It's done every day. Vickers VMQ series pumps produce up to 293 bar continuous outlet pressure ratings. That's 4250 psi.

This would typically be measured and published in vendor data, rather than calculated.

A vane pump is a volumetric pump thus the pressure depends on the circuit resistance.

The problem is if you have a pump able to work up to 150 bar. Some designs can other not.

I agree with other comments which ask if you know about what you want to do since your question is formulated in a incomplete and not easy to understand way.

Of course you can. If you can't turn the crank hard enough to get 150 bar discharge, simply increase the supply pressure until you can. If you can run the supply pressure to to about 200 bar, that crank will whip you like a runaway boat winch handle!

Have FUN!
