Larox Pumps for Metering
The innovative Larox Peristaltic Pumps for Metering (LPP-M) set a new industry
standard for peristaltic pump technology. Designed and manufactured for the
industrial marketplace, they are ideal for pumping diverse slurries and
metering a wide range of media.
Operating Principle
The
operating principle of the LPP-M pump is based on peristaltic effect. There
are two types of rollers in the rotor: squeeze rollers and centering rollers.
Squeeze rollers push medium forward through the tube and centering rollers
guide the tube to right alignment. As the squeeze roller rotates along the
tube, the process medium gets pushed forward through the tube. At the same
time, the tube behind compression point reverts to its original circular shape
creating a suction effect at the pump inlet port. As a result, the tube bore
gets filled with the medium. No backwards flow can occur as the tube is
squeezed tight by the roller.
Excellent Chemical Resistance
Proven tube from thermoplastic materials designed for chemical industry gives
secure operating conditions for both environment and operators. Durable pump
head and rotor material selections and optimized number of parts suite
excellent to corrosive operating environment. Rigid one piece rotor assembly
enables one minute maintenance and easy cleaning of the pump head.
Superior Accuracy for Your Processes
Accuracy of metering in any application is the most vital property of a
metering pump. Flow rate of LPP-M metering pump is not affected by variation
of the discharge pressure condition. Positive displacement of the tube bore
with zero slip provides same output volume on every cycle. Squeeze point of
the tube acts as self cleaning non-return valve without clogging risk
providing clear flow path with no possibility for vapour locks.
Trailblazing Technology
Equipped with the standard technical features of a typical peristaltic pump
such as dry run capability and self priming, the LPP-M pumps provide exact
flow per cycle. Seal less pumps will not get damaged even if they run dry for
longer periods of time. The LPP-M pumps are compact in design and their robust
construction is straight designed to industrial use. LPP-M pumps have also the
highest maximum working pressure on the markets. Voltage is automatically
detected and adjusted by power supply and input power range is 96VAC to 264VAC
50/60 Hz.
