NEMO® L.Cap Progressing Cavity Pumps
Highest performance for the biggest challenges in the oil, gas and mining industry
High flow rates and high pressure in the oil and gas industry: This is what the NEMO® L.Cap progressing cavity pump offers you. It is available in single, twin, and vertical versions and is ideally suited for various applications such as tanks.
The innovative design of the NEMO® L.Cap allows you to pump up to 1000 m³/h at pressures of up to 20 bar without any problems. No challenge is too great: Efficient pumping of oil, gas and water mixtures containing high solids is possible. This means that nothing stands in the way of safe and almost pulsation-free transport of crude oil, produced water, oil seawater and mud seawater, even over long distances. This protects your plant and avoids high maintenance and servicing costs. Especially in the oil and gas industry, the highest demands on equipment and safety are essential prerequisites for making processes safe and reliable. The unique design of the L.Cap meets the highest requirements and thus enables you to control your operation efficiently and reliably. It meets the needs of API 676 3rd edition and also NACE MR-0-175.
One pump, several versions: In the twin version, the suction and discharge connections of the pumps are fitted with manifolds so that there is only one process connection for the inlet and one for the outlet. Both pumps typically run simultaneously but can also be operated separately during service works. On the other hand, the vertical version convinces its compact and highly efficient design, especially in tank applications. With the single version, you can replace several centrifugal or piston pumps connected in series when producing emulsions for oil applications and dewatering mines or transferring mineral slurries. No matter how complex the requirements are, we will find the optimal technology for your application and the respective working conditions.

FAQ progressing cavity pumps
Progressing cavity pumps are particularly suitable for pumping highly viscous, abrasive, solid-laden or shear-sensitive media. Typical applications include the chemical, food, environmental, paper and building materials industries, as well as the oil and gas sector.
NEMO® progressing cavity pumps from NETZSCH Pumps & Systems are characterised by gentle, low-pulsation pumping, high dosing accuracy and a wide range of applications. They enable a constant delivery rate even with changing pressures and media compositions.
Progressing cavity pumps can be used to convey low-viscosity to highly viscous media, including slurries, suspensions, pastes, media with a high solids content, and sensitive or gas-laden liquids.
Yes, progressing-cavity pumps are self-priming and exhibit excellent suction performance. This makes them ideal for applications with changing fill levels or difficult suction conditions.
Maintenance requirements are low and predictable. Wear parts such as the rotor and stator can be easily replaced. Maintenance-friendly designs enable short downtimes and high plant availability.
The service life depends on factors such as the medium, speed, pressure and choice of materials. Professional design and the use of original spare parts ensure a long service life and economical operation.
All relevant original spare parts are available for progressing cavity pumps from NETZSCH Pumps & Systems, including rotors, stators, seals, joint parts and other wear-related components. The spare parts are precisely matched to the pump design and ensure high operational reliability.
The correct spare part can be identified by the machine number, serial number, or item number. Spare parts lists, sectional drawings and the operating and maintenance instructions also provide support. Alternatively, the NETZSCH Pumps & Systems service team can provide expert advice on selecting the right original spare part.
The experts at NETZSCH Pumps & Systems will assist you in the design, selection and integration of the right progressing cavity pump – tailored to your specific pumping tasks and process requirements.
