CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS

One of the most commonly used centrifugal pumps in the world, Ampco’s LC Series features a tried and true single mechanical seal design.

The LC Series comes standard with machined 316L body and corrosion resistant adapters. This pump works best for beverage and dairy applications as it is both gentle and effective. 

The pump’s internal seal design, along with the dynamically balanced impeller, allows for a smooth and quiet operation while extending seal longevity. Ampco’s LC Series is dimensionally and hydraulically interchangeable with most competing brands.

A close-coupled pump of the LC Series, the Ampco’s LD series utilizes a double mechanical seal. This unique centrifugal pump is exclusive to Ampco.

The LD series pump is designed with fewer internal parts to allow for easier servicing. Best for sugary, sticky, or abrasive applications, this pump’s double mechanical seal provides for an excellent pump option for vacuum applications or volatile products.

Ampco’s LF series front loading seal design allows for improved cleaning and maintenance.

Do you have sticky or tacky products that leak during processing due to build-up? Ampco has removed the traditional O-ring groove and dad zoned and replaced i with a semi-exposed O-ring that prevents leaking and build up. With this series of centrifugal pump, product can freely flow through the process line. 

The pump’s rotating seal stays connected in the driver during the assembly process for easier maintenance. 

Harsh products work great in the LF series pump due to balanced impellers, a self-aligning shaft design, tight manufacturing tolerances, minimized vibration and improved seal life.

The LF Series is a highly efficient pump that gently handles product while providing a more sanitary seal design than competing pumps.

Cryogenic Low Temp Applications. CBD hemp oil or Cannabidiol is fast becoming a mainstream ingredient for beverages, health products, gels, and other consumables products. The extraction process of these valuable oils can require pumping ethanol at temperatures as low as -70F (-56C).  Ampco has designed a special seal for positive displacement and centrifugal pumps that are suitable for these extremely low temperatures.

The LF Series centrifugal pump series with its internal seal design is a smart choice for this application providing durability, efficiency and tremendous maintenance advantages.

Ampco Pumps offers the LME series with a maintenance-friendly front loading single seal design. With the LME series, there is no need to disconnect the pump from piping to perform routine seal maintenance.

The LME is the metric equivalent to the LF Series and similar to the entire L Series line-up.

Featuring efficient and gentle product handling, the LME’s heavy wall casing makes it durable and economical. IEC motors are standard on the LME. Single mechanical seals can be easily converted to a double mechanical seal in your facility.

The LH Series high pressure close-coupled centrifugal pump design is an Ampco exclusive. The large footprint of the traditional bearing frame can be completely avoided by utilizing the LH Series.

Ampco uses custom JM frame premium efficiency motors close-coupled for space savings that provide over a 40% smaller footprint than competing brands.

The compact motor design also eliminates alignment issues. With the special seal specifically built for high pressure applications this series of pumps is perfect for membrane filtration applications where several pumps are used in a series.

This pump is built to perform with heavy duty construction, inlet pressures as high as 600 PSI/ 41 BAR, and a motor shaft made of AISI 4150 steel.
