Heavy Duty LSM Peristaltic Pumps

LSM Pumps Benefits

Heavy Duty Peristaltic Pumps for Industrial Applications

Very Economical to Run, Indeed!

Their hose is also very resistant. It easily offers an extended lifetime that spans up to twice as long as the typical lifetime of a eccentric screw pump stator.
Maintenance is also greatly facilitated by the hose accessibility and speed at which it can be replaced.
An efficiency that makes LSM pumps particularly competitive.

Peristaltic LSM Pumps are not only the largest ever built peristaltic pumps but thanks to their technology, uses half the energy as its traditional counterpart. 

A Few Typical Applications

More Benefits of LSM Pumps

• The vacuum created in the suction side is such that the pump is self-priming.
• The suction is such that it allows fluids to be lift up by 3 to 4 m below the level of the pump, up to 8 m with an optional vacuum pump applied on the pump body.
• The LSM peristaltic pump runs in 2 directions. This is particularly beneficial when automated processes, including PLC’s and sets of valves direct the fluid from and to various tanks, all this with just one pump.
• The peristaltic pump is volumetric. At a defined rotation speed, the flow rate is delivered with an accuracy of around 1%. This feature offers great flexibility of use in automated processes.
• The pressure applied by the rollers on the hose, seals suction and pressure sides off. As a result, in case the LSM pump stops, there is no flow backward possible.
• The only part of the entire pump to be in contact with the fluid is the peristaltic hose. Nothing else – no mechanical seals or all sorts of O-Rings. This is a big benefit, meaning that contamination with fluid is quasi impossible. And the cleaning process is much safer and quicker.
• The diameter of the peristaltic hose allows a large free passage, which makes the LSM pump well adapted when the fluid solid content is high. It tolerates bodies such as sand, pebble, etc.
  As an example, it is frequently used to unload fishing boats from their fish cargo or as transfer from aquaculture ponds to dock, etc.
• LSM Pumps are particularly suited for highly viscous fluids or heavily loaded with solid content.
• The LSM Pump hose is continuously lubricated. This lowers drastically both the wearing of the hose as the energy consumption.
• The LSM pump tolerates Dry Runs for a limited time – extremely rare feature of the pump world.
