LVP Series Applications

Stainless Steel Vane Pumps for Corrosive, Thin Liquids at Higher Pressures

Corrosive, Thin Liquids   Flammable Liquids   Higher Pressures
Viking's LVP pumps are designed for use with more than 200 thin liquids that are compatible with stainless steel, but cause unacceptable corrosion on cast iron. Chemical manufacturers and users that run many different liquids through their pumps, want the maximum practical corrosion protection, standard on the LVP series.

Typical Applications:
  • Acids and Alkalis
  • Alcohols and Solvents
  • Aqueous Solutions

 

  The heavy-duty, one-piece, surface hardened stainless steel casing of the LVP pump series satisfies both the corrosion and thermal shock protection requirements for flammable liquids and liquefied gases in refineries or chemical manufacturing plants.

Typical Applications:
  • Monomers
  • Hexane, Pentane
  • Refined Fuels

 

  The LVP series develops up to 14 Bar (200 PSI) on corrosive, thin liquids, where gear pumps and other manufacturer's vane pumps are limited to 8.5 Bar (125 PSI) or less. The reduced slip characteristics of Viking's LVP pumps also contribute to superior vacuum power for enhanced self-priming and suction lift capabilities.

Typical Applications:
  • Reactor Vessel Ingredient Metering
  • Vacuum Vessel Service
  • Long Suction or discharge Line
  • Suction Lift
