Alfa Laval LKH centrifugal pump is an efficient, chemical resistant pump for mild product treatment. The advanced design of advanced motors and semi open impellers makes process transfer easy and minimizes recirculation. LKH's sophisticated design improves productivity and provides higher energy efficiency than similar pumps. It is well suited for hygienic applications, meeting the most stringent requirements of the dairy, food, beverage and personal care industries.
advantage:
High efficiency: Precision designed pumps and motors provide high efficiency and gentle product handling. Robust design, strict tolerance and advanced impeller design minimize backflow and ensure efficient energy transfer.
Optimum pump design: The impeller design ensures that the product can be handled efficiently and gently when moving in the pump. This ensures product integrity and minimizes the net positive suction head (NPSHr) required.
Low energy consumption: improving the energy utilization efficiency of the pump can save a lot of energy. The optimized pump design and high-end motor of Alfa Laval LKH centrifugal pump are generally more energy efficient than similar high-end pumps, and up to 50% higher than similar mid end pumps.
Easy to clean and sanitary design: the key is to pay attention to details. Controlled compression seal gasket, crack free internal structure, external mechanical seal and optimized impeller with balance hole ensure that the pump is really cleaned in the time effective cleaning cycle. Perfectly aligned components and connectors with predefined compression O-rings minimize the surface of elastomer in contact with the product and ensure hygiene.
External shaft seal - hygienic and easy to repair: by placing the shaft seal outside the pump, components that are difficult to clean will not directly contact the product. In addition, the front mounted design makes replacement quick and easy, providing higher operation time and lower maintenance costs. Interchangeable single, flush and double seals simplify spare parts inventory.
