Introduction

The Alfa Laval LKHex Centrifugal Pump is a premium pump for

use in hygienic applications which must meet the requirements of

the ATEX directive 2014/34/EU group II, category 2G,

temperature class T3 and T4. To increase process productivity, it

is distinguished by high efficiency, gentle product treatment,

chemical resistance, and a wide range of flow rates, pressures

and options.

Precision-engineered, the LKHex 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 LKHex is engineered for use in potentially explosive

environments and conforms to the provisions of the ATEX

directive 2014/34/EU group II, category 2G, temperature class

T3 and T4. With verified effective CIP cleanability, it is ideal for

hygienic applications within the dairy, food, beverage and
