SIHILPH-X - Liquid Ring Vacuum Pump

One Stage

LPH 40106, LPH 40411, LPH 40516

Pressure Range: 150 to 1013 mbar

Suction Range: 45 to 275 m³/h

CONSTRUCTION
SIHI liquid ring vacuum pumps have a simple but robust
construction with the following features and benefits:

Near isothermal compression

Oil free, with no internal lubrication
Capable of handling almost all gases and vapours
Able to handle quantities of liquid “carry over”
Low maintenance and safe operation
Low noise and almost vibration free
Available in a wide range of materials
Broad range of applications
O-ring sealing as standard
Drain hole as standard
Built-in solids drain
Rotating metallic parts are non contacting to minimise wear
ATEX compliance

SIHI liquid ring vacuum pumps of the range LPH 40106, LPH
40411 and LPH 40516 are one stage pumps. They can be used as NOTE
compressors without any modification. By continuously feeding the pump with a small amount of service
liquid (usually water), the heat due to gas/vapour compression is
APPLICATIONS conducted away. This also replenishes the liquid ring and ensures
Evacuation and pumping of dry gases and saturated vapours. The that it does not become saturated with process media. The
pumps can also handle liquids. These units offer pressures in the condensed gas and fluid can be separated in a liquid separator
range of 150…900 mbar(a) to atmospheric. Typical application (see Accessories Catalogue). Recharging the pump with service
areas include: liquid at ambient temperature enables the unit to condense
Chemical and pharmaceutical industry for distillation, drying evacuated gases/vapours. It can therefore be used for solvent
and degassing recovery. More information is provided in the accessory catalogues.
Electronic industry for impregnation and drying The integrated solids drain permits the removal of any entrained
Plastics & Rubber industry for degassing solids whilst the pump is operating. The service liquid can,
Food and beverage industry for bottle filling. therefore, simply be re-circulated.
The rotation of the pump is clockwise when viewed from the drive
end.

Performance Characteristics LPHX 40106

The operating data is valid under the following conditions:

 Process media: - dry air: 20°C

- steam saturated air: 20°C

 Service liquid: - water: 15°C

Pressure of gas to be evacuated: 1013 mbar (Atmospheric pressure)

The suction volume is related to the suction pressure.
Tolerance for the suction volume flow is 10% and for power 5%.
The maximum consumption of make up water occurs at the lowest suction pressure.
