Introducing the LVP Vacuum Supply System from Alfa Laval AgrL
Finding an outstanding vacuum supplier has
never been easier. Now it's making a choice
that’s the difficult part.
The new LVP Vacuum Supply System is sure to meet
your demands. It’s designed to perform well for long
run-times. And because it doesn’t use water and
requires only minimal lubrication, operating costs are
considerably lower and maintenance inconsiderably
easier than with other types of vacuum suppliers.
We have a ready supply of alternatives as well.
