Stainless steel vane pumps March 1st 2008 Where reliability and durability are
high priorities when choosing a
pump for transferring corrosive or
thin liquids at higher pressures,
Viking LVP stainless steel vane
pumps from Michael Smith
Engineers, offer a solution.
Vanes extend from slots in the
pump rotor and these help to
sweep liquid through a camshaped
cavity. This ensures low
slip and high volumetric efficiency
at all points on the performance
curve, which contributes to longer
pump life and low life-cycle cost.
The LVP range covers flow rates
to 36m3, pressures to 14bar and
handles liquids with viscosities from
0.1 to 500 cSt. Units provide
smooth, non-pulsating, low-shear
flows and have good suction lift
capability. More articles from Michael Smith Engineers Ltd: |
