For over 60 years VIKING pumps has been manufacturing sliding vane pumps to complement their line of rotary positive displacement pump.
The LVP Series™ vane pump is the perfect solution for thin, corrosive industrial liquids, flammable liquids which require corrosion protection and applications where pressures or vacuum requirements exceed other pumps’ capabilities.
Features & Benefits
- Vane pump design offers ANSI or DIN flanges, and IEC or NEMA motor mounts to conform to international standards for enhanced application flexibility
- High pressure and high efficiency with thin liquids 20-minute inline vane replacement reduces scheduled downtime
- Harder components than other vane pumps extend pump life
Materials Of Construction & Configuration Options:
- EXTERNALS (HEAD & CASING): 316 stainless steel
- INTERNALS (ROTOR & SHAFT): 316 stainless steel
- INTERNALS (VANES & PUSH RODS): PEEK
- BUSHINGS: Silicon carbide
- SHAFT SEAL: Component mechanical seal, cartridge mechanical seal, cartridge triple lip seal
Typical Applications:
Common vane pump applications include, but are not limited to:
- Acids & alkalis
- Alcohols & solvents
- Aqueous solutions
- Monomers
- Hexane, pentane
- Refined fuels
- Reactor vessel ingredient metering
- Vacuum vessel service
- Suction lift applications
- Long suction or discharge line applications
Advantages:
- Opposite Porting: For easy in-line mounting
- Seal Chamber: Accommodates the use of component and cartridge seals
- Hardened 316SS Housing with Non-Metallic Pumping Elements: Offer broad chemical compatibility and enhanced application flexibility
- Rated to 200 PSI: Even on the thinnest liquids
- Self-Priming Capabilities: Simplify start-up process
- Sliding Vane Design: Self-adjusts for wear to maintain consistent performance
- Superior Volumetric & Mechanical Efficiency: For low energy consumption
- Internal Relief Valve: Provides over pressure protection
- Gauge Ports: Allow simple addition of local or remote monitoring systems
