Side Channel Pumps
AKL, AKV 1201 - 4201
Sterling Fluid Systems Pumping Technology AKV/AKL-00 / 2003
Application
Sterling SIHI side channel pumps of the series AKL / AKV in
inline design have been constructed as space saving and
easy to install pumping units with standard motor. The AKL /
AKV pumps are used for problem-free and economically
pumping of clear, turbid, aggressive, valuable, toxic or illsmelling
liquids that do not contain any abbrasive particles.
The AKVA, AKVB, AKLA and AKLB pumps are capable of
handling gas along with the medium while the AKVB is also
self-priming.
The AKL / AKV pumps are used for application in the fields of
for example;
• Chemical industry,
• Petro-Chemical,
• Plastics and rubber industry,
• Pharmaceutical industry,
• Food industry,
• Surface treatment and hardening,
• Air conditioning and refrigeration.
The space-saving and robust design with bearing pedestal
or bearing bracket and the small quantity of high-quality
material has made this inexpensive design a well-known
pump in the above-mentioned industries.
Furthermore, the AKV/AKL pumps are very suitable wherever
standard chemical pumps are oversized and are operating
uneconomically.
Design
Horizontal or vertical, single stage side channel pumps with
opposite arranged suction and discharge cover. The arranging
of the suction and discharge branch in one casing part gives
the possibility to change all parts subject to wear without
detaching the pumps from the piping system. The program
comprises 4 sizes at 1450 rpm and 4 sizes at 2900 rpm.
The applied hydraulic components are from our Modular Side
Channel system (interchangeability of parts).
Construction
Casing pressure
Maximum 16 bar from -40 oC up to +120 oC.
Please observe
Technical rules and safety regulations:
Casing pressure = inlet pressure + delivery head at minimum
pump capacity.
Position of branches
Horizontal suction and discharge branche on opposite sides
of the pump.
Flanges
The flanges correspond to DIN EN 1092-2 / PN16.
Flange design to DIN 2512 with groove or drilled according to
ANSI 150 or 300 lbs is basically possible.
Bearing
AKLA / AKVA: two grease lubricated ball bearings (design B)
AKLB / AKVB: one grease lubricated ball bearing, one liquid
surrounded sleeve bearing (design A). The ball bearings are
greased for life as per DIN 625.
Direction of rotation
Clockwise, when looking at the pump from the drive end.
Shaft sealing
The shaft can be sealed by a mechanical seal conform DIN
EN 12756.
