Busch has unveiled the Dolphin LX range of close-coupled liquid ring vacuum pumps. The company says Dolphin LX is suitable for a wide range of applications including the food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries, plus timber treatment and plastics as well as many others.
Dolphin LX's liquid ring technology works with one moving part, the impeller shaft assembly, which is mounted eccentrically relative to the casing. The liquid ring is formed by the service liquid, which is normally water, rotating concentrically in the casing. Process gas enters via the suction port and travels between the impeller blades and is compressed prior to ejection through the discharge port with a quantity of service liquid.

With an ultimate pressure of 33mbar, key features of Dolphin LX include compact single stage design, easy access for internal inspection, low noise levels and vibration free operation. Further features include a robust construction, minimum heat emission and low maintenance requirements.
The company is more than happy to carry out a site visit and audit to advise customers on the right equipment selection to meet their specific needs.
