Centrifugal Pumps - Handling The Inorganic and Organic Fluid in Subtle Way!

by Sweta Shah HR Executive in Ambica Machine Tools
A dynamic pressure or hydrodynamic pump is also called a centrifugal pump, and it operates using centrifugal force. This is one of the easiest and quickest pumps to install, and they are used in various industries, including chemical, rubber, laminate and textile industries along with power stations. They are also commonly used to help handle the hydrocarbons found in water desalination and fertilizer plants. You should make sure that you know what these pumps do in order to get the best out of them.

Use of the Pumps

The main use of the centrifugal pump is for handling the aggressive inorganic and organic fluids in the petrochemical and chemical industries. The pumps are also often put into use at many other factories, including refinery off-sites, sugar, food, pulp and water industries. They also take care of the hydrocarbons that are found in salt power and D.M. Water stations as well as in fertilizer and other processing industries. It helps to make sure that none of the harmful elements escapes and mixes with other materials or harms people.

Back pullout Style Design

One of the most popular types of centrifugal pumps is the back pull-out style ones who have the required space for withdrawing the rotating element, which is achieved by taking out the coupler spacer. This is done after the casing cover is removed along with other elements like the sealing liquid, cooling and heating water connections and support foot. The pump casing is left in the pipe while the rotating elements are removed with the motor remaining as part of the base plate and the rotating element can be easily dismantled and put together with no issues.

Material and Operating Range

Another thing that you should know about the centrifugal pumps is what material they are constructed out of along with the operating range. They have an operating capacity that is set at a maximum of 850 M3 per hour and can head up to 120 meters. Also, the pump sizes range from 25mm to 200mm with various speeds, such as 1450/2900 RPM with 50 HZ and 1750/3500 RPM with 60 HZ with a temperature of 350ยบ. They can be made out of a wide array of materials that can be used for specific requirements, including bronze, gun metal, Hastelloy-B/C, CD4MCU, CF3M(33-3161), Alloy 20, CF3, CF8, CF8M, alloy steel, carbon steel and gray cast iron.

You should make sure that you know what you are using when you are looking at these pumps, which can be put into use in factories in nearly all industries. You also need to be aware of the type of pump that you are using, including the popular back pullout design. Another important thing that you should be aware of is the operating capacity as well as the material that the pumps are made of and can be accordingly used in different factories. Make sure that you are getting a pump that is made of the right material and with the optimal operating range for your needs and in a budget.
