A modification project for dirty water pump sealing

The mechanical seal of a sewage circulating pump in a factory has been seriously leaking since it was put into operation.It can not be operated normally after several times of replacement.The leakage of wastewater containing organic matter, acid, alkali, salt, etc.It has resulted in varying degrees of corrosion to the equipment,and caused pollution to the environment, the loss is more serious.the dirty water pump leakage become a problem affecting the production of the factory.
After a thorough renovation of the sealing structure of the dirty water pump, good results have been achieved.
Let's talk about the modification design, we will know better about how to make dirty water pump to work better.
Field analysis
This dirty water pump is a cantilever centrifugal pump,Internal rotation, internal leakage, single spring, non - balanced carbide cemented carbide mechanical seal.After disassembly, it is found that the sealing device is seriously damaged and the friction material has been worn and broken,Spring seat was damaged, transmission parts and shaft worn and broken, the impeller and pump connection has heavy wear marks.
These conditions indicate that the pump works with vibration and that the coaxiality of the installation is poor, resulting in greater axial thrust and greater swing.
In addition, there are traces of wear and burn in front of the friction pairs, indicating that the internal circulation cooling structure of the pump is not good, and the cycle is bad.there are a lot of impurities in the circulation liquid, and there are hard particles in it, the dirty water pump is in the lack of routine maintenance.
Corrective actions 
Considering the use of the factory environment, the sealing requirements of the pump is not very high, there are too many hard particles in the circulating liquid,the equipment management level of this factory is low, it is not suitable to choose the mechanical seal of the pump shaft seal.
Therefore, transformation design scheme selection combined new type packing seal instead of the original mechanical seal
.This project design has the advantages of less investment, low installation cost and low maintenance requirements, it completely can meet the sealing requirements. It is very suitable for the actual situation of the factory.
We chose carbon fiber and flexible graphite as a sealing mechanism, Flexible graphite has not only low friction factor, but also good self lubrication performance and high resilience, the flexible graphite also has enough floating performance, can be well attached to the shaft, to prevent leakage. In this scheme, carbon fiber packing with high strength, good heat resistance, good corrosion resistance and erosion resistance has been added.The graphite packing is adopted in the middle five layers, which makes the material rebound well,the material of sealing has good elasticity, low friction coefficient, high and low temperature resistance, softness, corrosion resistance and good self lubrication
After modification of the dirty water pump ,since the pump was put into operation, the effect has been very good, almost reached the level of no leakage, and the axle temperature is completely normal.
More information,please contact us,we can make free pump system design for you!

Pressure fluctuation propagation of a pump turbine at pump mode under low head condition

Pressure fluctuation at the vaneless space and vanes passages is one of the most important problems for the stable operation of a pump turbine. The fluctuation appears in any operating condition. Much research has been done on the pressure fluctuation of hydraulic machinery. However, the details of pressure fluctuation propagation of the pump turbine at the pump mode have not been revealed. The modern pump turbine with high water head requires the runner to be “flat”, which would induce pressure fluctuation more easily than the low head pump turbine. In this article, a high head pump turbine model is used as the research object. As the pressure fluctuation at off-design point is more serious than at the design point, the low head condition is chosen as the research condition. Pressure fluctuation at the vaneless space and vanes passages is predicted by the computational fluid dynamics method based on k- shear stress transport model. The experiment conducted on the test rig of the Har...

How much is the stainless steel water pump?

We are very concerned about the price of the stainless steel centrifugal pump? How much money of stainless steel pump, in fact, this has a great relationship with product quality,some stainless steel pump like Grundfos,the price is higher, the quality is good. But there are also some stainless steel water pump,like Gelaili pump,the quality is good, but the price is not so high,it’s like buying a steak with the cabbage money. There are some small factories, the quality of their water pump production is not stable, the user experience is very poor, the price is very cheap, but in the process of using, maintenance costs have far exceeded the saved money when the pump was brought down. Therefore, how much is the stainless steel pump, really depends on the quality of the product, there is no enterprise willing to do business at a loss. How much is the stainless steel pump, stainless steel pump manufacturers and production experience affected price.Grundfos pump manufacturing history, c...

Difference between suction stroke and lift head of water pump

Pump self-priming capacity is also called maximum self suction height.It is the maximum height at which the water is pumped (the vertical distance between the pump and the the liquid surface to be pumped) without fill in water into the pump tunnel. General water level is lower than the location of the pump, you need to pump self-priming capacity.For example ,if we need to pump water from a river ,we will not plan pipe first,so we need a pump which has self-priming capacity. Or we need to pump some corrosive liquid,we can not fill water into the water pump tunnel. Some centrifugal water pumps do not have self-priming capacity,they need to fill in water at first time of using. The pump lift is the height that pump can lift water up.We usually expressed in H,the the unit is meter. The lift of the centrifugal pump is based on the center line of the impeller.The lift Consists of two parts,first is the vertical height from the center line of the pump impeller to the surface of the water s...
