Pump selection is a critical process that must be based on the specific requirements of the system, including the process flow, water supply and drainage needs, and other key factors. To ensure an accurate and efficient choice, five main aspects should be carefully evaluated: liquid flow rate, required head, liquid properties, pipeline layout, and operating conditions.
First, flow rate is one of the most important parameters in pump selection. It directly affects the production capacity and overall efficiency of the system. During the design phase, engineers typically calculate normal, minimum, and maximum flow rates. When selecting a pump, the maximum flow rate is usually used as the baseline, with the normal flow rate also considered. If the maximum flow rate is not available, it's common practice to use 1.1 times the normal flow rate as a safety margin.
Second, the system's required head is another essential factor. This value should include a 5% to 10% safety margin to account for unexpected pressure variations or system losses, ensuring the pump can perform reliably under different conditions.
Third, understanding the liquid properties is crucial. This includes the type of liquid, its physical characteristics (such as temperature, density, viscosity, and solid content), and chemical properties (like corrosiveness and toxicity). These factors influence the pump’s material selection, seal type, and overall performance. For example, high viscosity or abrasive liquids may require special pump designs.
Fourth, the pipeline layout plays a significant role in determining the pump’s performance. Factors such as suction and discharge heights, pipe length, material, fittings, and overall configuration affect the total dynamic head and net positive suction head (NPSH) requirements. Accurate pipeline data is essential for proper pump sizing and system efficiency.
Lastly, operating conditions must be thoroughly analyzed. This includes the ambient temperature, altitude, whether the operation is continuous or intermittent, and the location of the pump (fixed or mobile). Additionally, the pressure on both the suction and discharge sides, along with the presence of vapor pressure, must be taken into account to prevent cavitation and ensure stable operation.
This pump series is designed for a wide range of applications, including industrial and municipal water supply and drainage, pressurized water towers in high-rise buildings, fire boosting systems, pipeline boosting, long-distance water distribution, and heating/cooling cycles. Known for its stable operation, reliability, low noise levels, and broad applicability, this single-stage, single-suction centrifugal pump is ideal for various fluid transfer tasks.
Based on the ISO 2858 international standard, this pump incorporates the latest hydraulic design and meets all relevant international standards. It serves as a suitable alternative to the SG-type pipeline pump, with performance parameters and test methods aligned with those of IS-type centrifugal pumps. Its performance is comparable to GDL and DL multi-stage pumps, and it fully meets the design specifications required for efficient and safe operation in diverse environments.
