LVP Series Vane Pumps
|
|
Stainless Steel Vane Pumps for Corrosive,
Thin Liquids at Higher Pressures |
 |
 |
Vane pumps are used for liquid transfer applications from
chemicals to liquefied gases. Vanes extend from slots in the
rotor, sweeping liquid through a cam-shaped cavity. The
vanes provide very low slip and high volumetric efficiency
for lower total cost of ownership. |

The Viking®
Advantages |
|
Advanced Durability |
|
Viking's LVP series vane pump sets the benchmark for durability
with its standard, stainless steel casing surface-hardened to 62
Rockwell C maximizing casing and vane life. Its hardened chrome
oxide coated shaft turns in a hard silicon carbide bearing,
providing industry leading pressure capabilities to 14 Bar (200
PSI). The LVP pump's self-adjusting, PEEK®
plastic vanes and push rods provide superior vacuum
capabilities. |
|
Ease of Installation |
|
Pump installation has never been easier. The LVP series' DIN or
ANSI standard porting simplifies connection to local-standard
systems, and eliminates adapter leak points. To protect the pump
from over-pressure, a top-mounted adjustable pressure relief
valve is standard. For those applications utilizing local or
remote monitoring systems, Viking's LVP series provides standard
gauge ports. A rotatable casing with motor mount option, on two
smallest models, permits vertical or horizontal porting. With
motor speed operation up to 23 M3/Hr @ 50 Hz (100 GPM @ 60 Hz).
Viking has eliminated a speed reducer and one shaft alignment, a
coupling, and guard to simplify installation, reducing system
costs. |
|
Application Flexibility |
|
Viking's LVP series' delivers broad chemical compatibility with
its advanced durability features and higher pressure
capabilities [14 Bar (200 PSI)], on even the thinnest liquids,
enables the pump to be an ideal fit for multiple liquids and
applications. Its self-priming, short-term dry-run-capability
and bi-directional pumping design is ideal for
loading/unloading, or line stripping operations. The LVP series
delivers non-pulsing, low-shear flow with superior vacuum
capability and volumetric efficiency to deliver the same
capacity on thin liquids as a stainless steel gear or screw
pump, using less energy. |
|
Lower Cost of Ownership |
|
The LVP series' easy-to-pipe, straight-through porting design with
raised-face IEC or NEMA flanges, elastomeric O-ring seals on the
head, relief valve, and seal gland provide superior sealing
reliability. This series is also built with fewer parts,
minimizing maintenance. For example, the interchangeable discs
on the front and back side of the rotor can be switched and
reversed for twice the life. In 20 minutes, a vane replacement
service can be completed without removing the pump from its
system, reducing maintenance time and life-cycle costs. Designed
for use with more than 200 thin liquids, the LVP series has
tailored sealing solutions available for virtually every liquid
and application to minimize leaks, for a lower total cost of
ownership. |
