A Centrifugal pump uses rotation to impart velocity to a liquid which is converted into flow. These are made up of two important things, an Impeller and a casing. Centrifugal pumps have industrial, domestic as well as commercial uses. These pumps are ideal for reverse osmosis, boiler, water treatment and pressure boosting. These are a part of vertical multistage pumps category.
How does a Centrifugal pump work?
The impeller rotates and creates velocity, and impeller spins rapidly in the liquid being pumped. Every impeller has multiple vanes that extend from the centre of the impeller out towards the outer diameter. As the impeller turns, centrifugal forces cause the liquid to move rapidly out of the centre of the impeller, along the vanes and then exit the impeller at the outermost diameter. The result is a spray of the liquid exiting the impeller at all points around the periphery of the spinning impeller. The casing converts all of the energy created by rotating the impeller into a controlled and pressurized force.
Technical Details and Key Features
A.T.E. supplies vertical centrifugal pumps suitable for a wide range of applications. The pressure range for the pump is 0.25, and the flow range is 0-200m3/hour, size range consists of 1-3-5-10-200.
Uses of a Centrifugal Pump
Centrifugal pumps have numerous applications in various industries. They are often used for liquid transfer in oil refineries and power plants. These pumps are used to provide pressure boosting in homes, fire protection sprinklers, and to pump hot water. This can also be used in drainage and air conditioning systems. Chemical and process industries use centrifugal pumps for applications in the chemical, paint, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, food and beverage, sugar, and mining industries.
