LKH Series Pumps
Applications
LKH models are highly efficient and economical centrifugal pumps, which meet many sanitary requirements, as well as gentle product treatment and chemical resistance. These pumps are commonly used in hygienic applications including, but not limited to, personal care, food, dairy, beverage, biopharmaceutical, and CIP supply.
Standard Design
The LKH pump consists of a standard motor, stub shaft, mechanical compression coupling (LKH-5 with set screws), adaptor, back plate, impeller, impeller screw, pump casing and shaft seal. (LKH-5 has clamp connection between pump casing and back plate). The LKH pump is designed for CIP with emphasis on large internal roundings and cleanable seals.
Shaft Seals
The LKH pump is equipped with either an external single or a flushed shaft seal. Both have stationary seal rings in acid-resistant steel AISI 329 with sealing surface in silicon carbide and rotating seal rings in carbon. The secondary seal of the flushed seal is a long-lasting lip seal. The pump may also be equipped with a double mechanical shaft seal. Since the LKH uses the same seal over many sizes, it requires fewer spare parts on the shelf.
