Introduction

The Alfa Laval LKH Evap Centrifugal Pump is a premium

pump for use in hygienic applications. As a low-NPSHr, high

efficiency centrifugal pump, the LKH Evap is a tailored

evaporator pump supported by strong and extensive

documentation, including a comprehensive vacuum curve

package. It features a special scraper impeller, ClearFlow, that

solves the product buildup problem in high solids applications,

which can prolong production time between cleaning.

Precision-engineered, the LKH Evap pump delivers greater

energy efficiency than similar pumps. Its optimized design,

premium motor, tight tolerances and advanced impeller

design minimize recirculation and reduce energy

consumption.

Applications

The LKH Evap Centrifugal Pump is designed for hygienic

applications across the dairy, food, beverage, brewery,

alcohol, ethanol, starch and chemical industries. It is ideal for

use in evaporation duties for applications, such as liquid

concentration and powder processing as well as plant and

equipment dewatering.

The LKH Evap pump is available in 10 sizes to handle

capacities up to 280 m3/h and differential pressures up to 11

bar at 50 Hz.
