One of the most critical parts of any rotary pump is the shaft seal. In part 2 of our 5 part series on seals we take a closer look at Viking Pump's patented O-Pro® seal.

High fructose corn syrup is a product of hydrolyzed corn starch and is made up of varying ratios of glucose and fructose. High fructose corn syrup has many desirable traits - including serving as a sweetener and humectant in baking applications. When baking breads, buns, rolls, and yeast raised donuts, it ferments directly without the need for sugar inversion - the chemical conversion of saccharose into glucose and fructose. The cast iron 1224A Series™ features Viking Pump's O-Pro® Barrier seal - which prevents leakage.

Les résines peuvent être utilisées dans de nombreux produits tels que les polyuréthanes, les époxydes et autres adhésifs.
La série 1124A™ est en fonte et dispose du joint d'étanchéité O-Pro® de Viking Pump, qui résiste aux abrasifs. La série 1124A™ a de faibles capacités de cisaillement et une capacité allant jusqu'à 400 gallons par minute.
La série 4624B™ est également en fonte avec des matériaux trempés standard et de nombreuses options d'étanchéité différentes. Cette série a une capacité allant jusqu'à 180 gallons par minute.

In this video we will guide you through the conversion from a behind the rotor seal to a component mechanical stuffing box seal in Viking Pump’s stainless-steel pumps – with U-Plus™ bracket and ProPort™ casing. 

This video applies to these pump models:
H4127C, HL4127C, K4127C, KK4127C, L4127C, LL4127C, H4227C, HL4227C, K4227C, KK4227C, L4227C, LL4227C

In this Quick Tip video, we will show you how to switch between flange sizes or port types on Viking Pump’s internal gear pumps with the ProPort™ casing.

First, loosen and remove the capscrews securing the existing flange.

Remove the flange.

Remove and discard the gasket or o-ring from the casing.

Repeat for the second flange.

Next, ensure the sealing glands near the casing ports are clean and free of debris.

Flanges or NPT ports can be installed using o-rings or gaskets, depending on process needs.

In this video we will guide you through the conversion from a behind the rotor seal to a component mechanical stuffing box seal in Viking Pump's stainless-steel pumps - with U-Plus™ bracket and ProPort™ casing.
This video applies to these pump models:
H4127C, HL4127C, K4127C, KK4127C, L4127C, LL4127C, H4227C, HL4227C, K4227C, KK4227C, L4227C, LL4227C

To begin, remove the stainless-steel window guards from the bracket.

Next, bend up the tang of the lock washer.

Place a brass or hardwood bar into the port opening to keep the pump from turning.

Viking Pump has evolved their flagship products. These are stainless steel pumps like you've never seen before. Modularity and customization are at the core of these products.

The new U-Plus™ bracket utilizes any of Viking Pump's cartridge or component mechanical seals, packing, and Viking Pump's own O-Pro® seals.

In a previous Pump Report Chad discussed the motors used to power pumps. But how do you connect a pump to that motor? And what if you want to run the pump slower than motor speed? In this episode Chad talks about drives and their related equipment. 

The term “drive” is used to describe the ancillary equipment used to mount and power a pump. This includes the motor, which we’d already discussed, but can also include a baseplate, coupling, guard, reducer, and more.
