Introduction Of Hydraulic Pumps & Frequently Encountered Problems

Image
Hydraulic Pumps are used in hydraulic drive systems (They can be hydrostatic or hydrodynamic). These pumps convert mechanical power into hydraulic energy. Hydrostatic pumps are positive displacement pumps whereas hydrodynamic pumps are variable displacement pumps. In our day-to-day life, we frequently use hydrodynamic pumps while hydrostatic pumps generally used in the fluid power motion control applications.  There are various types of Hydraulic Pumps. Some of them are Gear pumps , Rotary Vane pumps, Screw pumps, Bent axis pumps, Axis Piston pumps, Radial Piston pumps, Peristaltic pumps. There are a number of reasons which can cause the failure of a Hydraulic Pump. Among them, some notable problems and their solutions are listed below: * It is an estimation by many Hydraulic Pump Manufacturers that 70 to 80 percent of hydraulic system failures are from contaminations. To prevent such damaging effects, we should perform oil analysis with particle counts at regular intervals. *

A Reader’s Guide about the High-pressure Pumps & Their Features

Image
High-Pressure Pumps are a variety of pumps which can fulfill the pumping needs of high rise buildings. Such mammoth level constructions usually demand huge pressure to supply the entire building. The normal capacity of these pumps lies in between the height of 200 meters to a maximum of 1200 meters. In general, all varieties of pumps work with the principle of Moving water with the action of a plunger or piston in a cylinder. They contain huge-diameter impeller with shallow vanes for larger pressure and discharge heights. They perfectly fit the needs of Sprinklers, Avoiding fast leakage or light firefighting, and Handling the water uphill. Let us dig deeper into the components and construction part of the High-Pressure Pumps . A high-pressure reciprocating pump is a major part and it can be available in 3 models namely Simplex, Triplex, and Quintuplex. Prime Mover is another major part which may be an electric motor, diesel engine, and gas engine. Cleaning accessories are the optio

Facts Behind Frequent Failure Of A Water Pump Motor (Or) Submersible Pump

Image
The movement of water is a primary concern for both the domestic and industrial sectors. Starting from a homemaker to farmer (or) hotel servant to industrialist, everyone needs to have pumping mechanism of water in order to fulfill their requirements. Pumps and Motors can effectively serve this purpose and assure us a hassle-free lifestyle. Water Pump Motors and Submersible Pumps are the two most notable hardware machines which are generally used to satisfy these needs. But, there are some ways which lead to failure of their functioning. Let us know in detail context about them. 1. Excessive Heat & Reverse Rotation     Water Pump Motor usually generates a lot of heat on its own, depending on usage and design. As per a survey, it is clearly revealed that every Ten degrees of additional heat that are delivered to the windings reduces the life of a motor by half. On the other side, if we give wiring connection in a reverse manner, then the motor runs backward.
