Stainless steel lye pumps (1.4435)

SAWA lye pumps made of V4A stainless steel 1.4435 have been successfully used for many years to pump lye in a wide range of industrial sectors. The lye pumps operate very energy-efficiently and are available as compact block pumps with stub shaft and IEC standard motor or also in the design with magnetic coupling. The screwed and very thick-walled housing constructions promise a very high degree of process reliability and are particularly suitable for heavy-duty applications but also for fine chemicals. Depending on the design, these pumps also comply with the ATEX directive 2014/34/EU and are approved for ATEX zones 1/21 and 2/22.

Lye pumps for the following fluids

  • Caustic soda
  • Washing lyes
  • Caustic potash

  • Curing in meat processing
  • Spraying of baked goods (lye pastry)
  • Transfer pump
  • Tank truck loading and unloading
  • Dosage application to neutralize acids
  • Dosing applications e.g. of lyes in CIP plants
  • Applications in hazardous areas
  • Alkali waste water

Properties of the lye pumps

  • robust and easy to maintain
  • free ball passage up to 25 mm
  • easy to clean
  • energy efficient
  • sustainable
  • sealless for the LET series

Sealing

  • Different shaft seals
  • hermetically sealed with magnetic coupling

Pump types of our lye pumps

  • Lye pump - series HD, with up to 70 m3/h flow rate. With delivery heads of up to 43 m, these side channel pumps are quiet, self-priming and suitable for both left-hand and right-hand rotation. In the version with magnetic coupling they are hermetically sealed and particularly suitable for lye.
  • Lye pumps - LE series, with up to 240 m3/h flow rate. The energy-efficient pump with perfect performance. The robust construction promises a very high operational reliability and is very easy to maintain. Of course, this series is also available with magnetic coupling hermetically sealed and thus complies with TA Luft. Lye pump - LET series, with up to 100m3/h delivery rate. The perfect submersible centrifugal pump for lye wastewater without shaft seal can be used for a wide range of industrial requirements. For an immersion depth of 0.3 to 3 m, the LET pumps are manufactured in a modular system and exactly according to the requirements of the operator.
  • Lye pumps - LET series, with up to 100m3/h flow rate. The perfect lye wastewater submersible centrifugal pump without shaft seal can be used for a wide range of industrial requirements. For an immersion depth of 0.3 to 3 m the LET pumps are manufactured in a modular system and exactly according to the requirements of the operator.
  • Lye pump - MP series, with a delivery rate of 100 - 7,000 l/h. The peripheral impeller pumps with magnetic coupling are used wherever small flow rates are required pulsation-free against high pressures. The symmetrical design is suitable for clockwise and anti-clockwise rotation. An ideal pump for metering applications and thanks to the robust design with magnetic coupling, it is also hermetically sealed.
  • Lye pump - series ZR, with up to 9 m3/h flow rate. The robust solution for companies in industry and trade. For pumping thin-bodied to viscous alkalis up to max. 3,000 mPas.
