Ⅰ、General

This type pump is use d for de livery clea n wat er a nd liq ui d which physical

and chemica l pr oper ty is simil ar to water ．The te mper atur e o f th e d eliver ed

medi um shal l n ot excee d 8 0 ℃．The pu mp is suita ble for the use o f g ener al

heat ing system circul ati on ，pla nt ，mi ne，city water supp ly and etc ．It also

can be used for l arg e scale hydr au lic en gi neer in g ，a gricult ura l irri gat io n

and drai n o ff Grin d fl oo dwat er ．

Ⅱ、Construction

The pump is single stage ，doubl e suction ，axial- split ，horizont al

centrifu gal pump ．The suction and discharge of pump all located below the
centerli ne of the shaft and perpe ndicu lar to axis ．The join t face of pump
casing and cover locate on the level of the centerli ne ，and it seated with
two layers of moul ded paper ．Impell er locate the midd le position of pump
shaft ．Bearing used for supportin g two ends is rollin g beari ng ．Packing
seal is used for shaft seal of pump ．
Water delivered by pump flow into pump casing from suction
pipe ，and then divided in two parts ，goes into stations at both ends of
impe ll er throu gh absorb volute ，and then info compass chamber after
obtaine d ener gy by blade rotatio n ．In compass chamb er ，the velocity
energy of water can convert into pressure energy then drain off from
discharge pipe ．

2.1 Pump body

Pump body consists of two parts，i.e. pump casing and cover．Pump casing and
cover form a working chamber of pump．The joint face of pump casing and cover locate on

1
the axis，so that east to dismount and check parts in pump without removing inlet and
outlet pipe and prime motor．The overhaul is very easy．The suction and discharge
nozzles locate below the axis，and cast with pump casing in a integrate，its centerline is
perpendicular to axis．There are thread holes for mounting vacuum gage and pressure
gage on the flange at suction and discharge nozzles．There is a thread hole on the highest
place of cover ．Fill liquid from this hole and drain off air in pump before starting．There is
also drain off hole at the lowest position of nozzles，it is used for drain off the liquid in
pump after pump stopping．Pump casing is designed according to the relative theory of
hydrokinetics．Its main function is that convert the liquid with kinetic energy flowed out of
the impeller in high –speed running into pressure energy．

2.2 Impeller

Impeller is double suction，the stream-line design of hydrokinetics is used during

designing．It is of sufficient intensity and rigidity as rotating part．Because impel ler form
is symmetric and force borne on both ends is qual l ，in theory ，the axial
force caused by rotor is mutua l bal ance ．Vibrati on shall never occur during
opera tio n ．In addit ion ，there is no cast defect ，such as scab ，sand hole
and etc ．on impel ler ，and the throu gh- flow surface should be polishe d to a
certain degree ．The service life and hydraulic efficiency of pump is
guara nte ed ．

2.3 Shaft and shaft sleeve

Impe ller install at the middl e of shaft and fix with flat key and shaft
sleeve ．Impell er is fixed by shaft sleeve ．Shaft install agai nst journ al
beari ng at both ends and driven by motor ，pump and motor is connected
with coupli ng ．In order to improve strength and service life of shaft ，the
mater ials ，structure ，heat treat men t ，detecti on of shaft should be mainly
considere d ．

2.4 Seal ring of pump casing

Seal ring should be fixed on pump casing ．Two seal ring on the left and
right of pump casing may be replaced ．In order to ensure the mini mu m
leakag e from high to low pressure ，and at the same time make the rotor in

2
normal operati ng ，a certain clearance betwe en seal rings of impe ller and
pump casing must be guarant ee d ，for the value see assemb ly drawing with
rando m additi on ．

2.5 Packing seal

Packing seal is used for pump seal ．Littl e water with high pressure
form discharge volute directly flow in to packing ring throu gh hydraulic seal
pipe and act as hydraulic seal ．

2.6 Bearing

Rollin g bearings lubricate d with glycerin is used on the both ends of

pump ．At the same time ，because the shape of pump body is full
symmetric ，in theory ，there is no axial force on feed pump ，but ，because
of errors of manuf acture and install ati on ，axial force may occur ，thrust
bearin g which borne axial thrust force is used ．This structure is easy to
maint ena nce and operat e smoothly ．

2.7 Coupling

Coupl ing is used to connect motor with pump shaft ．Flexible coupling
is used ．
