L_900: powerful, efficient, reliable<br />
For over a century, both Nash <strong>and</strong> Siemens (elmo) have produced robust,<br />
efficient <strong>and</strong> reliable <strong>liquid</strong> <strong>ring</strong> <strong>pumps</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>compressors</strong> to meet the<br />
rigorous needs of such industries as<br />

Pulp <strong>and</strong> paper industry<br />
Mining<br />
Geothermal plants<br />
Sugar industry<br />
Process industries<br />
... <strong>and</strong> many others<br />
When the two companies merged in 2002, we combined our product lines to<br />
enable us to offer the highest performance, reliability <strong>and</strong> efficiency in every<br />
product class. Each model of the L_900 <strong>pumps</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>compressors</strong> is equipped<br />
with an industry proven polyisoprene-lined pump casing to protect the pump<br />
internals against corrosion <strong>and</strong> erosion. The unique inlet <strong>and</strong> discharge configuration<br />
of each machine offers flexibility in piping <strong>and</strong> the top discharge<br />
capability of the 2BE3 models eliminates the need for a trench <strong>and</strong> minimizes<br />
floorspace. Each pump is 100% factory performance tested prior to shipment<br />
<strong>and</strong> is backed by a two year warranty against materials <strong>and</strong> workmanship.<br />

L_900 Technical highlights<br />
Split <strong>vacuum</strong> capability<br />
With the addition of the center partition wall (or center shroud) in<br />
the pump body, each half of the L_900 can operate at different<br />
<strong>vacuum</strong> levels with differential pressures up to 338 mbar (10 in. Hg)<br />
between the two pump halves. The advantage of this is significant<br />
because it allows the use of fewer <strong>vacuum</strong> <strong>pumps</strong> which saves<br />
space <strong>and</strong> installed cost.<br />
Quiet operation <strong>and</strong> easy maintenance<br />
Despite their size <strong>and</strong> capacity, the L_900 Series are amazingly quiet<br />
du<strong>ring</strong> operation. Sound levels of 72 to 85 dBa (measured at a distance<br />
of 1 meter (3.3 ft) from the source) have been recorded for even the<br />
largest of the pump models.<br />
Internal inspections are easily performed either through large<br />
inspection ports located in the pump heads or through unused<br />
discharge connections. No dismantling of the pump is required.<br />
Robust, reliable <strong>and</strong> ready<br />
Because the internal components rotate without making contact,<br />
<strong>liquid</strong> <strong>ring</strong> <strong>vacuum</strong> <strong>pumps</strong> are practically wear <strong>and</strong> maintenance<br />
free. The st<strong>and</strong>ard polyisoprene lining on the pump body resists<br />
aggressive process gases <strong>and</strong> <strong>liquid</strong>s to provide exceptional corrosion<br />
resistance. For added corrosion resistance, stainless steel internal<br />
components are available in certain models. Double-row tapered<br />
roller bea<strong>ring</strong>s increase life in both belt <strong>and</strong> direct drive applications.<br />
No matter what your application, the L_900 is ready to h<strong>and</strong>le<br />
all of your process needs!<br />

Installation Flexibility<br />
Due to the design of the pump heads, the L_900 models offer many<br />
options for connecting both the inlet <strong>and</strong> discharge piping to simplify<br />
installation in both new facilities or existing facilities where headroom<br />
<strong>and</strong> space is limited.<br />
From the vertical <strong>and</strong> horizontal inlet capability of the 2BE3 <strong>and</strong> P 2620<br />
models to the top discharge capability of the 2BE3 models, the L_900<br />
Series offers the best solution for your application.<br />
Contact your local nash_elmo reprensentative or direct sales person to<br />
discuss how the L_900 will fit your specific process needs.<br />
Self-recirculation capability<br />
The 2BE3 models help minimize water consumption through its ability to<br />
internally recirculate seal water – without the need for circulating<br />
<strong>pumps</strong> or external controls. The design of the internals also allows the<br />
pump to draw water from an atmospheric tank without an external<br />
pumping source alleviating the need for expensive <strong>pumps</strong> <strong>and</strong> control<br />
systems.<br />

Proven, reliable <strong>and</strong> extremely quiet<br />
Whether <strong>vacuum</strong> <strong>pumps</strong>, <strong>compressors</strong> or systems for conveying air,<br />
gases or air/gas mixtures, the extensive range of products in the<br />
G_Series meets the widest range of requirements. Thanks to their<br />
variable voltage motors, many are usable anywhere in the world<br />
without the need for conversion. In addition to their compact construction,<br />
full UL/CSA certification <strong>and</strong> innovative design, G_Series<br />
<strong>pumps</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>compressors</strong> offer a comprehensive power range up to<br />
2,500 m 3 /h (1,470 cfm), maximum power density <strong>and</strong> a wide selection<br />
of accessories, including frequency converters.<br />
Simple design for varied applications<br />
The vane <strong>pumps</strong> in our V_Series are known for their robust design,<br />
easy h<strong>and</strong>ling <strong>and</strong> long service life. Furnished with an extremely<br />
sturdy metal coating as well as installation- <strong>and</strong> service-friendly<br />
plug & play functionality, these high performance machines are<br />
extremely quiet in operation, <strong>and</strong> can meet even the most challenging<br />
industrial dem<strong>and</strong>s while cove<strong>ring</strong> an impressive performance<br />
range up to 4,000m 3 /h (2,350 cfm) <strong>and</strong> 10 bar g (145 psig).<br />
High reliability with low operating costs<br />
The dry-running <strong>vacuum</strong> <strong>pumps</strong> in our D_Series are explosion-proof<br />
<strong>and</strong> were specially developed for production processes involving<br />
sensitive materials. Throughout the entire process, they operate<br />
condensation-free – <strong>and</strong> therefore corrosion-free – because there<br />
are no operating fluids to mix with the process gases. As a result,<br />
discharge gases can simply be collected <strong>and</strong>/or returned to the process.<br />
There are no waste products. In addition, all <strong>pumps</strong> in the D_Series<br />
are highly efficient <strong>and</strong> provide a constant suction capacity over an<br />
extremely wide range of pressures with a performance range up to<br />
to 2,200 m 3 /h (1,300 cfm).<br />
