Submersible Pump Application The system consists of a submersible pump controlled by a Danfoss VLT AQUA Drive and a pressure transmitter. The transmitter gives a 4-20 mA feedback signal to the VLT AQUA Drive‚ which keeps a constant pressure by controlling the speed of the pump. To design a drive for a submersible pump application‚ there are a few important issues to take into consideration. Therefore the drive used must be chosen according to motor current. 1. The motor is a so called “Can motor”

Centrifugal Pump @ 1750 RPM · Figure 1 Head Pressure versus Flowrate · Figure 2 Ideal Power versus Head Pressure (H) · Sample Calculations · Raw Data Discussion of Experiment A centrifugal pump contains an impeller or set of vanes encased in housing. Energy is added to the fluid in the form of velocity and pressure as a result of the impeller turning. An engineer must determine the range of flow rates required when using a centrifugal pump.

consider a multiple pump system to meet the design requirements. Two typical options include parallel and series configurations of pumps. Specific performance criteria must be met when considering these options. Given a piping system which has a known design flow rate and head requirements‚ Qdes‚ hdes‚ the following pump selection criteria apply. Pumps in Parallel: Assuming that the pumps are identical‚ each pump must provide the following: Q(pump) = 0.5 Qdes h(pump) = hdes Pumps in Series: Assuming

AUTOMATIC WATER PUMP CONTROLLER The automatic water pump controller is used to control the water pump motor. The motor gets automatically switched on when water in the overhead tank (OHT) falls below the lower limit. Similarly‚ it gets switched off when the tank is filled up. Built around only one NAND gate IC (CD4011)‚ the circuit is simple‚ compact and economical. It works off a 12V DC power supply and consumes very little power. The circuit can be divided into two parts: controller circuit and

CENTRIFUGAL PUMP A centrifugal pump converts the input power to kinetic energy in the liquid by accelerating the liquid by a revolving device - an impeller. The most common type is the volute pump. Fluid enters the pump through the eye of the impeller which rotates at high speed. The fluid is accelerated radially outward from the pump chasing. A vacuum is created at the impellers eye that continuously draws more fluid into the pump. The energy created by the pump is kinetic energy according the

Centrifugal pump A centrifugal pump is a rotodynamic pump that uses a rotating impeller to increase the pressure of a fluid. Centrifugal pumps are commonly used to move liquids through a piping system. The fluid enters the pump impeller along or near to the rotating axis and is accelerated by the impeller‚ flowing radially outward into a diffuser or volute chamber (casing)‚ from where it exits into the downstream piping system.[1][2] Centrifugal pumps are used for large discharge through smaller
