Viking Pump has introduced its LVP series stainless steel vane pump. With 14-Bar/200-psi thin liquid capability, and capacities up to 45 cubic meters/hour (200 gpm), the new LVP pumps are designed for thin, corrosive liquids at higher pressures than other positive displacement pumps.

John Hall, Viking's product manager, said, “The LVP series is designed to minimize life-cycle costs, and its stainless steel casing is surface-hardened to 62 Rockwell C, reducing casing and vane wear. The LVP series' standard chrome oxide-coated shaft and silicon carbide bushings are extremely hard and long-lasting, and its PEEK vanes offer high strength, low friction for less wear, and broad chemical compatibility. The LVP series is also maintenance-friendly, allowing complete draining and easy vane or seal replacement without removing the pump from its system.”

The LVP series comes in a metric-standard design, with DIN flanges, IEC motor mount, and metric-standard shaft seal options. It is also available with ANSI flange ports, NEMA motor mount, inch-standard seals, and it can be foot-mounted.
