An intensified awareness of environmental, maintenance, and safety issues in recent years has made process-fluid leakage a dominant concern in municipal wastewater facilities and chemical processing plants. The sealless, non-metallic option offered by Viking Pumps in GA has proven to be effective in these applications.
The capability of sealless pumps to minimize or prevent leakage has made them the most often preferred choice for pumping acidic, caustic and abrasive solutions that typically cause seals to fail. After years of being considered niche products for specialty applications, sealless pumps have now become mainstream.
Viking Pumps in GA: The Advantages
Durable: Viking’s external gear pump is produced of engineered fluoropolymers that boast superior corrosion strength and resistance over a broad range of temperatures and chemicals. Its design eliminates possible leakage, as well as the current energy loss and heat rise that is common in metallic pumps.
Easy to Install: The close-coupled installation eliminates traditional alignment issues with pump and motor for quicker, easier mounting.
Flexible: Viking’s non-metallic construction delivers a wide range of chemical compatibility. The sealless design provides trouble-free functioning where liquid containment is vital to environmental requirements. Designed with simple serviceability, the typical wear components can be replaced easily by removing only the front cover.
Reduced Cost of Ownership: The non-metallic construction eliminates the need for expensive alloys and the sealless design removes service requirements of mechanical seals and expensive seal flush systems.
Viking Pumps in GA: Applications for Sealless, Non-Metallic Pumps
Corrosive Chemicals: These pumps handle a wide pH range, which permits the same pump to be used for several different types of liquids. They are designed for monitoring liquids in process control systems as well as for simple tank-to-tank transfer.
Typical Applications:
- Bases: Sodium Hydroxide
- Acids: Sulfuric, Hydrochloric, Nitric, Phosphoric
- Disinfectants: Sodium Hypochlorite
- Coagulants: Ferric Chloride
Volatile Flammable Liquids: These pumps utilize a magnetic drive system to remove the most common source of vapor emissions and pump leakage, which is the shaft seal. This helps protect the environment and employees and prevents the infiltration of air into the pump to protect liquids that react with water or air.
Typical Applications:
- Refrigerants: Freons, Ammonia
- Solvents: Acetone, Toluene
- Organics: Formaldehyde, Vinyl Chloride Monomer
- Adhesives: Cyanoacrylate, Epoxies • Odorants: Mercaptans, Fragrances, Aldehydes
- Refined Fuels: Ethanol, Biodiesel
Viking Pumps in GA: Benefits of Sealless, Non-Metallic Pumps
10-Minute Maintenance: The normal wear components of these pumps can be replaced without having to remove the pump from the system and no special tools are needed.
Heavyweight Bearings: Offers built-in protection against system upset, which extends pump life and allows for vertical mounting.
Innovative Magnet System: Its design allows the magnet to self-align with no added fasteners which eliminates axial loading on the shaft and extends the life of the pump.
Renewable Performance: Recover 100% performance with the conversion of a spare parts kit to keep the pump running at its best. This offers a cost-effective renewal of pump performance.
Universal Flange: Universal flange design uses replaceable flange inserts for easy installation. Eliminates the need for flange adapters, which makes installation into virtually any system easier.
Non-Metallic Magnet Canister: Minimizes magnet inefficiencies and heat rise due to loss of current in metallic canisters. Reduces heat rise to protect sensitive fluids.
