Viking Universal Seal Internal Gear Pumps are designed to meet the demands of heavy-duty, industrial pumping applications and incorporate essential features for reliable, low-maintenance pumping, even in the most challenging environments.
For applications in sugar refineries, the Viking Pump sugar pumps in GA can be customized with various seal options, increased clearances to minimize shear, and a ribbed idler gear for applications involving the handling of solid particles.
Viking’s ribbed idler reduces gear-to-gear contact, which is one of the causes of damage to solids, such as sugar crystals, and shear sensitive liquids. This has been achieved by removing 0.9 mm (0.035” or 900 microns) of material from 80% of the flank of each idler gear tooth, on both sides.
