897 Series pumps are designed to provide positive displacement pumping capability in those situations that require the highest assurance of liquid containment. These mag drive pumps provide for the safe, trouble-free transfer of hazardous, EPA-regulated fluids without electronic monitoring as required with mechanical face-type shaft seals. Hard-to-seal liquids are also easily handled with the Viking Mag Drive which eliminates the high cost of mechanical seal replacement and repair. A variety of coupling sizes are available for flow requirements to 75 GPM. The torquecarrying ability of high-strength magnets allows pumps to be coupled with gear reducers for slow-speed handling of viscous liquids. The self-priming positive-displacement
pumping principle provides low-shear, non-pulsing flow. Internal gear pumps are available in stainless steel, steel, and cast iron construction.
