Five aspects of centrifugal pump selection based on characteristics
Centrifugal pump selection basis should be considered from five aspects according to the process flow and water supply and drainage requirements, including liquid delivery volume, device head, liquid properties, pipeline layout, and operating conditions.
1. Flow rate is one of the important performance data of the water selection pump, which is directly related to the production capacity and conveying capacity of the entire device. For example, in the process design of the design institute, the normal, minimum and maximum flow rates of the pump can be calculated. When selecting the pump, take the maximum flow as the basis and take into account the normal flow. When there is no maximum flow, 1.1 times the normal flow can usually be taken as the maximum flow.
2. The head required by the installation system is another important performance data for pump selection. Generally, the head should be selected after magnifying 5%-10% of the margin.
3. Liquid properties, including the name of the liquid medium, physical properties, chemical properties and other properties. The physical properties include temperature c, density d, viscosity u, solid particle diameter and gas content in the medium, etc. This relates to the lift of the system, the effective gas Calculation of surplus allowance and suitable pump type: chemical properties, mainly refer to the chemical corrosiveness and toxicity of the liquid medium, which is an important basis for the selection of pump materials and the type of shaft seal.
4. The piping layout conditions of the device system refer to the liquid delivery height and the liquid delivery distance from the liquid delivery direction, the lowest liquid level on the suction side, the highest liquid level on the discharge side, etc. Some data and piping specifications and their length, materials, pipe fitting specifications, and quantity Etc. in order to carry out the combing head calculation and cavitation margin check.
5. There are many operating conditions, such as liquid operation T saturated steam power P, suction side pressure PS (absolute), discharge side container pressure PZ, altitude, ambient temperature operation is intermittent or continuous, and the pump position is fixed The ones are still removable.
Warm reminder from Changsha Zoomlian Pump Co., Ltd.: Based on the above pump selection criteria, we can easily select the appropriate pump according to our needs. After strictly following the pump selection basis, what we should pay attention to is that the selected pump should be as small as possible, cheap, with good characteristics, long service life, stable operation, and low operating cost.
