Viking® General Purpose Pumps

Viking's® general purpose pumps are well-suited for light, medium, and intermittent service applications handling a variety of liquids.  With simple construction, a gentle pumping action as well as easy and economical maintenance, these pumps are adaptable to an unlimited number of industrial applications. 

Excellent vacuum characteristics allow the pumps to operate and prime at suction lifts up to 7.5 meters/25 feet, depending upon the vaporization point of volatile liquids. An over-pressure safety relief valve is standard.  Viking® offers several advantages such as dependable service and maximum productivity with only two moving parts for simple maintenance and reliable operation.

An optional steam-jacketed head or plate permits temperature control of the liquid being pumped.  Optional port locations such as upright, opposite, and right-angles are available to optimize system integration. 

Also, all general purpose pumps are available with packed stuffing boxes.  However, self-adjusting mechanical seals are available on the "C" through "HL" sizes for additional leak protection.

Viking's® general purpose pumps can handle temperatures from -60⁰F to +450⁰F.  The viscosity range is from 28 SSU to 250,000 SSU or 1.0 cSt to 55,000 cSt.
