Ampco ZP Series Circumferential Piston Sanitary Pumps
Ampco ZP Series circumferential piston positive displacement pumps (ZP1, ZP1+, ZP2, ZP3, ZP4) are engineered for gentle, low-shear displacement of viscous food, dairy, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical products.
The standard 304 stainless steel gearcase eliminates paint peeling and rust contamination in sanitary washdown areas. High-strength one-piece 17-4PH shafts provide triple the yield strength of 316 stainless steel, preventing shaft deflection under extreme hydraulic shock loads.
Patented front-loading mechanical seal designs in ZP3 and ZP1+ models permit fast seal replacement without disconnecting process lines, drastically lowering facility downtime during routine maintenance schedules and ensuring full CIP cleanability.
Flows to 147.2 m³/hr (648 GPM), pressures to 34 bar (500 PSI), viscosities 1 to 1,000,000 cP, certified 3-A & EHEDG sanitary design.
Ampco AC & AC+ Series Sanitary Centrifugal Pumps
Ampco AC and AC+ Series sanitary centrifugal pumps are precision-machined from heavy-duty wrought 316L stainless steel for hygienic beverage, dairy, food, and CIP processing duties.
The innovative AC+ line enhances traditional C-Series geometry with a clamped stub shaft arrangement and a threaded impeller retainer nut.
This rigid clamping mechanism eliminates shaft runout and dampens hydraulic harmonics, substantially prolonging mechanical seal longevity under fluctuating operating conditions.
Fully interchangeable dimensionally with legacy C-Series pumps, the AC+ line offers exceptional hydraulic efficiency, reduced vibration, and minimal maintenance intervention.
Capacities to 250 m³/hr (1100 GPM), inlet pressure to 4 bar (60 PSI), 316L stainless steel, certified 3-A compliance.
Ampco L-Series High-Efficiency Centrifugal Pumps
Ampco L-Series high-efficiency centrifugal pumps (models LC, LD, LF, LH, LM) are engineered for demanding fluid handling applications up to 1200 cP viscosity.
Heavy-wall cast 316L stainless steel construction and electropolished wet surfaces streamline flow paths to achieve industry-leading hydraulic efficiency.
The product family provides specialized seal variations: LC with standard single internal mechanical seal, LD featuring double flushed seals for abrasive or sugary media prone to crystallization, LF with quick front-loading access, and LH heavy-duty configurations rated for extreme system pressures up to 600 PSI.
Discharge to 409 m³/hr (1800 GPM), suction pressure to 41 bar (600 PSI), handling to 1200 cP, flushed double mechanical seals.
Ampco SP Series Self-Priming Liquid Ring Pumps
Ampco SP Series self-priming liquid ring pumps (SP-02, SP-05, SP-10, SP-20) are purpose-built for scavenging aerated, foaming, and vapor-laden liquids without loss of prime.
Operating as CIP scavenge return pumps across breweries, dairies, and pharmaceutical plants, SP pumps reliably pull vacuum up to 7.6 m (25 ft) to drain process vessels, piping loops, and transport tankers completely.
The distinctive wagon-wheel impeller profile prevents air-locking, dampens hydraulic hammering, and maintains steady volumetric flow even under severe two-phase suction conditions with intermittent fluid intake.
Suction lift to 7.6 m (25 ft), flow to 62 m³/hr (275 GPM), head to 10 bar (150 PSI), handles heavily aerated fluids.
Ampco AL Series Rotary Lobe Sanitary Pumps
Ampco AL Series rotary lobe positive displacement pumps deliver gentle handling for shear-sensitive, highly viscous liquids containing delicate solids, such as fruit fillings, curds, confectionery pastes, cosmetic creams, and pharmaceutical preparations.
Wetted components are cast in 316L stainless steel, supported by a rigid stainless steel gear housing. Configurable with single-lobe, bi-wing, or tri-lobe rotor geometries, AL pumps ensure minimal product degradation.
Fast front-loading mechanical seals and external shimming allow rotor adjustment without dismantling the pump from production lines.
Flow to 100 m³/hr (440 GPM), pressure to 20 bar (290 PSI), handling to 1,000,000 cP, certified 3-A & EHEDG standards.
Ampco SLH Series Sanitary Twin Screw Dual-Duty Pumps
Ampco SLH Series twin-screw pumps (models SLH-4U, SLH-4G, and next-generation SLH-5G), developed in strategic technical partnership with ITT Bornemann, provide dual-duty capability within a single sanitary envelope.
Non-contacting intermeshing screws gently convey high-viscosity pastes and suspended solids up to 1,000,000 cP at low speeds without pulsation or metallic shearing.
Operating up to 3600 RPM on low-viscosity fluids, the SLH functions seamlessly as a full-flow CIP pump, eliminating the capital cost, valves, and pipework of auxiliary return pump stations.
Viscosity 1 to 1,000,000 cP, pressure to 25 bar (360 PSI), dual-duty process pumping and high-velocity CIP operation.
Ampco marine and industrial centrifugal pumps (Z, K, R, D, and heavy-duty IC+ Series) are specifically manufactured for demanding corrosive duties involving seawater, brine, reverse osmosis desalination, and marine fire/bilge systems.
Housings and impellers cast in CDA958 nickel aluminum bronze, 316 stainless steel, or 2205 duplex stainless steel provide unmatched erosion and cavitation resistance.
Certified with official ABS (American Bureau of Shipping) Type Approval, these robust pumps guarantee dependable long-term performance aboard offshore platforms and commercial vessels.
SpareX delivers the full spectrum of authentic replacement parts and factory preventative maintenance kits (PM Kits) for all Ampco pump models.
We provide cartridge single and double mechanical seals, non-galling Alloy 88 rotors that maintain tight volumetric clearances without galling against stainless casings, high-tensile 17-4PH shafts, food-grade elastomeric O-rings (EPDM, FKM, FFKM, PTFE), helical timing gears, and precision bearings.
We also supply drop-in rebuild kits for Waukesha and Wright pumps backed by original manufacturer specifications.
Engineering Sizing for Sanitary & Industrial Pumping Systems
Selecting the proper Ampco pump configuration requires analyzing process fluid dynamics: fluid nature (dairy products, high-fructose corn syrup, viscous purée, brewing wort, aggressive CIP chemicals, or marine saltwater), dynamic viscosity across operating temperatures, certified flow rates (m³/hr or GPM), total dynamic head, suction conditions, and shear sensitivity. SpareX application specialists configure the ideal solution: circumferential piston ZP Series for non-shearing high-viscosity transfer, sanitary AC+ or L-Series centrifugal pumps for high-volume beverage bottling, SP liquid ring pumps for entrained gas CIP return, dual-duty SLH twin-screw pumps for joint processing and CIP cycles, or Z/K/R marine pumps cast in CDA958 nickel aluminum bronze for reverse osmosis desalination. For hazardous area deployments, we coordinate explosion-proof motors conforming to ATEX and IECEx standards, variable frequency drives, and pressurized barrier fluid buffer systems.
To maintain optimal production uptime across food, beverage, and chemical facilities, SpareX supplies authentic Ampco replacement components and preventative maintenance kits (PM Kits): patented front-loading mechanical seal cartridges, non-galling Alloy 88 rotors allowing close operating clearances, high-tensile 17-4PH stub shafts, dynamically balanced impellers, food-grade EPDM, FKM Viton, and PTFE sanitary gaskets, timing gears, and heavy-duty bearing assemblies. OEM parts ensure certified hydraulic efficiency, sanitary containment, and extended pump service life. We also provide direct drop-in replacement parts and remanufacturing kits for competing Waukesha Cherry-Burrell Universal I & II and Wright Flow models with guaranteed dimensional fidelity.
