Replace Sulzer Axial Flow Pump Introduction

What is the difference between a pulse pump and an axial flow pump?

Pulse pumps and axial flow pumps are two unrelated pumps with different operating principles and applications.

Pulse pumps use a series of rapidly opening and closing valves to create pressure pulses in the fluid, forcing the fluid through the pump. They use an electric motor or a bypass flow at the inlet as an energy source to produce pulsed flow at moderate pressures. Axial flow pumps use a rotating impeller with blades to push the fluid parallel to the pump axis, creating flow by transferring kinetic energy to the fluid.

Pulse pumps are typically used in low-flow, high-pressure applications such as waterjet cutting, boosting, and pumping fluids with entrained gases. Axial flow pumps provide high-flow, low-pressure outputs through the transfer of kinetic energy from the impeller.

Can Replace Sulzer Axial Flow Pump run dry?

No, the working fluid is usually used as a coolant, and the lack of coolant can cause bearings and seals to overheat quickly. Dry operation accelerates the wear of pump components, especially impellers and bearings, due to increased friction and heat buildup. In many cases, the working fluid is an effective lubricant for the seals, and the lack of working fluid can cause serious damage to the seals. In some cases, semi-dry operation can induce cavitation, which is the formation of bubbles within the pump due to low pressure conditions. Cavitation can cause corrosion of pump components and reduce the efficiency of the pump. Pumps increase energy consumption when running dry because the pump motor will run but will not generate flow.

1. Are axial flow pumps durable?

Yes, axial flow pumps are generally considered to be very durable if operated within design parameters and properly maintained. Durability depends largely on the following factors: material and construction quality, operating conditions, maintenance methods and application requirements.

Replace Sulzer Axial Flow Pump application

Axial flow pumps are widely used in irrigation, water supply and drainage, inland waterway dredging, power engineering and other fields that require large amounts of liquid to be transported but do not require high head. They are also used in nuclear power engineering and ship propulsion.
