Turbine pumps for low flow/high head LPG applications

Turbine pumps, or regenerative turbine pumps, are units where liquid circulates several times before being discharged at an increased pressure. They are great for low-flow/high head applications with high differential pressures like LPG filling and loading and unloading.

Product description

Turbine pumps have hybrid characteristics with mechanical resemblance of centrifugal pumps with performance corresponding more to a positive displacement pump. Turbine pumps do not, however, displace a fixed amount but use kinetic energy to create potential energy by acceleration that slightly increases per circulation and thereby increases the pressure.

Did you know?

MAKEEN Gas Equipment can provide a complete pump skid, fully assembled with motor, coupling, guard, baseplate, complying with ATEX – remember to also ask about truck turbine pumps!

We can provide several models of regenerative turbine pumps with a wide range of differential pressures and capacities

Alternative products

  • Blue side channel pump

    Side channel pumps

    For long-distance transfers of LPG through narrow pipes, side channel pumps are highly suitable. Multi-stage configuration allows for higher differential pressure.

  • Yellow submersible pump

    Submersible pumps

    This type of pump can be fully inserted into tanks and push liquid upwards. They are very useful for autogas stations where they can supply LPG to several dispensers with guaranteed flow rates.
