PUMP INFORMATION
| REGENERATIVE TURBINE, IMPELLER BETWEEN BEARINGS, SINGLE STAGE
Used for low flow high head applications such as boiler feed supply. This design is not susceptible to the same problems as a centrifugal pump when operating at low flow. Can handle up to 20% entrained air and can operate in the reverse direction. However to accomplish the pumping action close internal tolerances must be maintained which requires a clear fluid. Also known as a peripheral pump. See the pump glossary for more information. For parts diagram see Hydraulic Institute For an example see: |
