Anyone has experience with Blackmer Sliding Vane Pump on low NPSH service? How reliable is the pump? What problems have you experienced?

Thanks,

Yuze

No problems to date on lots of LPG installations. Pump seems fairly tolerant and no issues reported.

I have also seen them in several clean service LPG installations. It appears to be the pump of choice in such services and I have not heard anything bad about them.

Regards,

SNORGY.
