Different Types of Pumps - Vane Pumps - Process Industry Forum
Vane pumps are available in many different configurations and can also handle fluids with a wide range of temperatures and pressures. Since they often are used for pumping clean hydrocarbons including gas and light oils, vane pumps are normally …
Different Types of Pumps – Positive Displacement Pumps
Positive displacement pumps are generally available to deliver performance in accordance with the following ranges: Flow rates range between 0.4 to 55,000 lpm; Total head (pressure) ranges between 0.7 and 6800 Bar; Horsepower ranges between 0.5 and 4,900 hp; Viscosity limits vary with pump type. Different types of positive displacement pumps
Different Types of Pumps – Centrifugal Pumps - Process Industry …
With many different configurations available, centrifugal pumps are widely-used because of their design simplicity, high efficiency, wide range of capacity and head, smooth flow rate and ease of operation and maintenance. Principle of Operation. Centrifugal pumps use one or more impellers, which attach to and rotate with the pump shaft. This ...
Different Types of Pumps - Process Industry Forum
In principle, there are two primary types of submersible pumps installations. There are those that operate down a bored well system and those that operate in a sump, wet well, or basin. The type that operates in a bored well normally includes a very thin and manoeuvrable submersible motor located at the bottom of the pump.
Different Types of Pumps – Peristaltic Pumps - Process Industry …
Advantages of Peristaltic Pumps. One of the greatest advantages of Peristaltic Pumps is the isolation between the pump moving parts and the process media, thereby removing any risk of cross contamination. The pump is easy to clean and to sterilise as the only part of the pump coming into contact with the fluid being pumped is the interior of ...
How different types of Positive Displacement Pumps work & their …
How different types of Positive Displacement Pumps work. The term positive displacement refers to the way in which these pumps pressurize and move fluid. Positive displacement pumps squeeze fluid by decreasing the volume that contains it. One type of positive displacement pump is a piston pump: every stroke pushes along a certain amount of fluid.
Different Types of Pumps – Magnetically Coupled Pumps
Magnetically Coupled Pumps (Centifrugal) Very often, where we have a process critical application, it is important to consider physically decoupling the pump rotor from the shaft driven by the motor. This is perhaps necessary where leakage of the process media could pose a significant risk to safety.
Centrifugal Pumps – Everything you need to know!
Different types of centrifugal pumps. There are four main type classifications of centrifugal pump (with the chief distinction of each being the mechanism that drives the reciprocating diaphragm): Mechanically Actuated; Hydraulically Actuated; Solenoid and Air Operated; Double Diaphragm Pumps (AODD).
Positive displacement pumps – chemical applications
Different types of Positive displacement pumps PD Pump Solutions from Blackmer and Mouvex SNP Series Sliding Vane Pump. Blackmer SNP pumps are typically used in handling corrosive or caustic fluids like acids, brines and liquid foods. They are built from 316 stainless steel construction, with metallized carbon sleeve bearings and non-metallic ...
