Pumps
Pumps belong to one of two types, depending on their operating principle:
• Centrifugal or dynamic pumps, which move liquids by adding kinetic energyto the liquid; and
• Positive displacement pumps, which provide a constant volumetric flow for agiven pump speed by trapping liquid in cavities in the pump and moving itto the pump outlet.
The size of a pump must also take into account the difference inelevation between the pump and the end user, which influences the powerrequirement of the pump significantly. The cost of energy to operate a pump system can be reducedby installing high-efficiency pumps, motors and drives.Our group can serve the following activities:
1. Implement a program of regular inspection and preventivemaintenance to minimize pump component failures.
2. Optimum pump selection ensures that the duty point is withinthe optimum zone on the pump curve.
3. Measures taken to reduce electricity consumption by fans and pumps helpreduce emissions from thermo-electricity-generating stations
