The difference between pipeline pumps and other pumps

 


Before distinguishing between a pipeline pump and a centrifugal pump, it is necessary to explain what a centrifugal pump is. A centrifugal pump is a pump that relies on the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the impeller to transport liquid. The high-speed rotating impeller blades drive the water to rotate and throw the water out to achieve the purpose of transportation. Centrifugal pumps have various forms such as vertical, horizontal, single-stage, multi-stage, single-suction, double-suction, self-suction and pipeline type.

Therefore, centrifugal pumps are a large type of pump, and centrifugal pumps are used in many industrial and civil fields. Its market share is at least 90%. The centrifugal pump mentioned above has various forms such as vertical, horizontal, single-stage, multi-stage, single-suction, double-suction, self-suction and pipeline type. The pipeline type here refers to the pipeline pump we often say. It is not difficult to see that the pipeline pump is a special centrifugal pump.

The industry defines a pipeline pump like this: a pipeline pump refers to a centrifugal pump whose inlet and outlet are on the same straight line. That is, it looks like a section of pipeline, and it can be directly installed on the pipeline like a pipeline to pressurize the liquid. There is basically no big difference in the structure of the pump body. Most of the pipeline pumps are single-stage pumps. Some pipeline booster pumps with special requirements use multi-stage pumps, and most of them are ordinary pipeline pumps.

The pipeline booster pump is actually a gas station where the fluid is in the pipeline. When the pipeline is laid long and the flow rate of the fluid in the pipeline is not enough to overcome the resistance of the pipeline, a booster pump must be added to increase the pressure of the fluid in the pipeline. Make transport to farther places.

Summary: Centrifugal pump is the original model of pipeline pump, pipeline pump is included in the category of centrifugal pump. A pipeline pump is a centrifugal pump with a special structure. It has the advantages of easy installation and maintenance (the pipeline can be maintained without removing the impeller, pump body, and bearings), a wide range of performance, and mature technology.

Therefore, when the performance range permits, it is recommended to give priority to pipeline pumps.
