Alfa Laval SolidC serie

The Alfa Laval centrifugal pump Solid C series can be divided into two categories, premium and standard-duty. The first category comprises the various LKH series. These handle even specialized needs such as multistage, high-pressure, self-priming and high-purity applications. The second focuses on cost efficiency and includes the value-optimized SolidC pump series.

Gentle product treatment

The centrifugal pumps are renowned for their ability to move products gently and efficiently. The integrity of your product is assured, regardless whether you choose a premium or standard-duty model. 

Advanced hygienic design

With emphasis on features such as optimized internal geometry and profiled o-rings, the centrifugal pumps are suitable for Cleaning In Place (CIP) and offer exceptional levels of hygiene. All have been tested in accordance with EHEDG requirements and many are authorized to carry the 3A symbol. 

Advanced seal design

The Alfa Laval centrifugal pump LKH premium pumps (models 5-60) and the SolidC standard-duty pumps share the same mechanical shaft seal. This implifies maintenance and spare parts inventory. Combined with the quick and easy front-loading design, this reduces maintenance costs, increases uptime and reduces the cost of ownership. 

Easy seal conversion

The external design of thecentrifugal pumps, as well as the seal’s construction, is designed to make seal conversion as fast and as simple as possible. The premium LKH pumps can be converted from single to flushed or double mechanical seals, while the standard-duty SolidC pumps can be converted from single to flushed shaft seals. 

Computer-designed impellers

The centrifugal pump impellers are computer designed and hydraulically balanced for optimum performance. Both the impellers and their retaining screws (optional) are smooth, which keeps them from accumulating product and makes cleaning more effective. 

Efficient performance

The centrifugal pumps consume less power and exhibit low noise levels. In addition, they minimize the risk of cavitation thanks to low NPSH requirements.

Standard-duty pumps

Alfa Laval’s standard-duty centrifugal pumps are designed to offer high value for money. In addition to gentle product handling and efficient operation, they offer high reliability and possibilities for swift and easy maintenance. The highlight of the standard-duty pumps is the SolidC series, which combines a practical, cost effective design with certain characteristics of the premium LKH centrifugal pumps.

Alfa Laval centrifugal pump SolidC

The SolidC pump series is a reliable and cost-effective solution for simple transport duties up to 85 m3/h. It utilizes the same mechanical shaft seal found in the LKH series, which is front-loaded and easily replaced without removing the back plate. SolidC pumps are available in four sizes and comply with 3A, CE and EHEDG requirements.

Alfa Laval centrifugal pump Solid C Ultra Pure

Solid C UltraPure focuses on the ultra- hygienic applications such as pharmaceuticals. Solid C UltraPure is just like the standard C Solid in four sizes. The Ultra Pure comes standard with 3.1 certificate and test certificates. The seals which come into contact with the product produced according to the FDA and EPDM gaskets are supplied with a USP class 6 certificate. By default, the Ultra Pure version with an internal roughness of Ra 0.5. The pump comes with three year warranty.
