LVP Series Motor Speed Product Line Thin Liquid Rotary Vane Pumps
The LVP Series™ is designed for thin, corrosive industrial liquids, flammable liquids which require corrosion protection and applications where pressures or vacuum requirements exceed other pumps’ capabilities.
Vanes extend from slots on the rotor, sweeping liquid through a cam-shaped cavity. They offer the benefit of very low slip and high mechanical efficiency.
Viking’s LVP Series™ stainless steel vane pumps is an industrial design which provides smooth flow at pressures higher than typically seen in a vane pump. It is offered in 3 frame sizes that include 6 capacities, all rated to 200 PSI/14 Bar differential pressure. The design is standard with hardened casing, PEEK vanes and push rods that work together to maximize pump life. A hard chrome-oxide coated shaft runs in silicon carbide bushings that further reduce maintenance and life cycle costs. When maintenance is required, installation of repair parts is a simple process. Vanes, push rods, mechanical seals and bushings are all readily accessible for easy replacement.
Viking Pump LVP Series Features & Benefits
• Pump design provides superior vacuum capability and volumetric efficiency. Provides application flexibility and reduces life-cycle costs.
• Bi-directional pumping design eliminates cost of second pump, piping, and valving needed for loading/unloading or line stripping. Provides application flexibility and reduces system costs.
• Combination of Hardened 316 stainless steel casing, PEEK vanes and push rods, and carbon construction provides broad chemical compatibility. Enhances application flexibility.
• High efficiency pump with self-priming, short-term dry-run-capabilities that handles entrained gases.Provides non-pulsing, low-shear flow.
• Pressure capabilities to 14 Bar (200 PSI), even on the thinnest liquids. Permits standardizing on single pump for multiple liquids and applications.
• Vane replacement is a 20 minute service item and does not require rotor and shaft removal or detachment of pump from system. Reduces scheduled downtime, and lowers cost of ownership.
• Better design with fewer parts reduces maintenance, and commonality of many parts between frame sizes reduces parts stocking needs. Provides better parts availability and lower the cost of ownership.
• Interchangeable discs may be reversed instead of replaced when worn. Doubles useful life of parts, for reduced life-cycle cost.
• Raised-face flange ports, one-piece casing and bracket, and elastomeric O-ring seals on head, relief valve, and seal gland provides improved sealing reliability. Reduces downtime and cleanup, minimizes chemical exposure.
