Centrifugal Pumps
Centrifugal pumps are the most common pump, used in a wide variety of applications, especially water. They include one or more impellers that rotate and pull the fluid through. Impellers can be trimmed to change head or flow to enhance efficiency. They are not commonly used in non-Newtonian fluids.
Walking the system and asking questions before taking measurements is vital.
Improve performance through pump design optimization.
Thorough analysis, testing and upgrades renew the life of an old single-stage, double-suction, horizontal split case pump.
Curve shapes reveal a pump's range of peak efficiency.
