6 Technical data
It is important to observe the technical data during installation, operation and maintenance.
Inform personnel about the technical data.
6.1 Technical data
The LKH pump is a highly efficient and econominal centrifugal pump, which meets the requirements of sanitary and gentle
product treatment and chemical resistsnce. LKH is available in the following sizes LKH-5, -10, -15, -20, -25, -35, -40, -50, -60,
-70, -75, -85 and -90. The instruction manual is part of the delivery. Read the instructions carefully. The large pump sizes are
very heavy. Alfa Laval therefore recommends the use of a lifting crane when handling the pump.
