CENTRIFUGAL PUMP

The centrifugal pump is a fundamental component of many industrial and commercial processes, relying on its robust design to efficiently transfer fluids from one location to another. Its parts are carefully crafted to work together seamlessly, each playing a crucial role in the overall operation of the pump. Assembly begins with the base or casing, which houses all the other components and provides structural integrity to the unit. The impeller, a critical part of the pump, is attached to the shaft and responsible for increasing the velocity of the fluid as it enters the pump. The volute, another essential component, surrounds the impeller and channels the fluid into the discharge outlet. The seal assembly prevents fluid from leaking out during operation, while the wear ring helps maintain a precise fit between the impeller and the casing. The shaft sleeve supports the shaft and enables smooth rotation, ensuring optimal performance and longevity of the pump.
