Vacuum technology at the heart of gas-handling systems
The SIHI LPH/KPH range of liquid ring vacuum pumps and compressors from Flowserve is a proven and cost-effective solution for a wide variety of industrial gas-handling processes. The product line offers vacuum capabilities from atmosphere down to 25 Torr (28.9 in Hg) or compression from atmosphere to 10.3 barg (150 psig).
Proven liquid ring performance
Many pump and compressor systems become unreliable when liquid or vapor are present in a gas element. The liquid ring technology used in SIHI LPH pumps and KPH compressors is a proven economical alternative.
By creating a continuous “ring” of fluid, liquid ring pumps and compressors enable the efficient handling of gases for a wide range of industrial processes. Liquids and condensed vapors separated out of the process can be discharged, recirculated or recovered.
