The functioning of a centrifugal pump
In order to meet the increasing demands of Chemical process industries, centrifugal Chemical pumps were fabricated from chemically inert materials. These chemical transfer pumps serve as an ideal solution for host of problems pertaining to handling of highly corrosive liquids.
Catering to an extensive range of sectors like Pharmaceutical, Chemical Processing, Electroplating and Effluent Handling Industries, chemical process pumps have proved to be an idyllic pump for transferring hazardous liquids, sea water, slurries and industrial wastes. A chemical pump manufactured from superior quality of materials is capable of efficiently withstanding high friction with minimum depreciation.
The functioning of a centrifugal pump is simple. Centrifugal pumps use a rotating impeller in order to increase the pressure and flow of the fluid. Essentially, they convert energy of prime mover into kinetic energy and later into pressure energy of the fluid being pumped.
A Centrifugal pump possesses two main components- a rotating component and a stationary component. A rotating component comprises of an impeller and a shaft while a stationary component consists of a casing, casing cover and bearings. The former results into conversion of kinetic energy and the latter converts kinetic energy into pressure energy.
