Several Factors Affecting The Efficiency Of Slurry Pump

Jul. 25, 2020

The greater impact on the efficiency of the Slurry Pump is the rationality of the slurry pump design. Only when the slurry pump design is reasonable can the slurry pump achieve higher efficiency. Of course, the improvement of the efficiency of the slurry pump means that the slurry pump plays a better role. The efficiency of the slurry pump is the product of the three efficiencies of mechanical, volume and hydraulic power. The efficiency of the pump set is the product of the pump efficiency and the motor efficiency. According to the Slurry Pump Supplier, the main factors that cause the low efficiency of the slurry pump group are as follows.

1. The efficiency of the pump itself is fundamental. The efficiency of pumps under the same working conditions may differ by more than 15%.

2. The operating condition of the slurry pump is lower than the rated operating condition of the pump, the pump efficiency is low, and the energy consumption is high.

3. The efficiency of the motor remains basically unchanged during use. Therefore, choosing a high-efficiency motor is very important.

4. The impact of mechanical efficiency is mainly related to design and manufacturing quality. After the pump is selected, the later management has less impact.

5. Hydraulic loss includes hydraulic friction and local resistance loss. After the pump runs for a certain period of time, it will inevitably cause surface wear of the impeller and guide vanes, which will increase the hydraulic loss and decrease the hydraulic efficiency.

6. The volume loss of the pump is also called leakage loss, including the three leakage losses of the impeller seal ring, the interstage, and the axial force balance mechanism. The level of volumetric efficiency is not only related to design and manufacturing, but also related to later management. After the pump runs continuously for a certain period of time, due to the friction between the components, the gap increases and the volumetric efficiency decreases.

7. The slurry pump is evacuated and idling due to clogging of the filter cylinder and air intake of the pipeline.

8. Before the pump is started, employees do not pay attention to the preparation work before starting the slurry pump. The basic operating procedures such as heating pumps, disc pumps, and perfusion pumps are not completely implemented, which often causes pump cavitation, causing pump noise, vibration, and low pump efficiency. .

As a slurry pump manufacturer, our pumps are of very good quality, and welcome to purchase.
