Viking Pump Motor Speed Pumps – Smaller, Faster, Easier - Kerr Pump & Supply

This week, we are featuring Viking Pump’s Motor Speed Internal Gear Pumps, which offer several technological advances in the science of flow. Kerr recommends this for the following liquid pumping applications:

Refined fuels – Oils, Diesel, Biofuel
Oils – Crude oil lubrication, Hydraulic, Edible oils
Chemicals – Solvents, Glycols, Refrigerants.

The Viking Pump Motor Speed pumps feature several new techniques:

Idler and rotor root feed grooves promote axial feeding
Liquid directing step reduces turbulence
Modified crescent boosts radial feeding
Casing inlet port geometry has been optimized

Viking Pump Motor Speed Pump Features and Specs

Maximum flow of 580 GPM (132 m3/h) provides greater flow than similar sized pumps
Reduced footprint for space constrained applications
Motor speed operation to 460 GPM (104 m3/h) provides higher value per GPM (m3/h)
Ability to operate 50 or 60 Hz synchronous motor speeds eliminates the need for gear reducers or gearmotors, reducing the overall cost
Viscosity: 28 to 25,000 SSU
Pressure: to 250 PSI
Temperature: -40 degrees F to +350 degrees F

Viking Pump Motor Speed Advantages

Expanded feeding area and redesigned head allow for higher speed
Pressure lubricated idler pin and bushing extends life
Gauge ports easily allow gauges or transducers
One piece casing ensures alignment for maximum bearing and seal life
Sealed ant-friction bearings eliminate the need for lubrication
Threaded one piece bearing housing allows for end clearance adjustment
Flange for motor mounting bracket eliminates the need for drive equipment and provides better unit alignment
Behind the rotor seal means shaft and bearings are not exposed to media
ANSI or DIN flanges option enables easy in-line mounting
