Vane pump is a kind of fluid conveying equipment widely used in industry, agriculture, construction and other fields. Its selection is very important to ensure the normal operation of the system. It is often used to transport clean or low-concentration corrosive liquids, such as acid-base solution, oil, emulsion, etc. Correct selection is the premise to ensure the normal operation and effective operation of vane pump. The following are the key factors for the selection of vane pump:

1. flow and head

Flow and head are the two core parameters of vane pump selection. The flow rate refers to the volume or quality of the liquid delivered by the pump per unit time, while the head indicates the energy applied by the pump to the unit liquid to obtain a certain pressure. According to the actual demand, determine the required flow and head, so as to select the appropriate pump model.

Flow rate is an important parameter to consider when selecting vane pump, usually expressed in m/h. According to the actual needs, selecting the appropriate flow rate can avoid the failure and failure of the vane pump due to excessive flow or insufficient flow. When selecting the flow rate, it is necessary to consider various factors such as the type of liquid to be transported, the density and fluidity of the liquid, and the diameter of the pipeline.

The head of the vane pump refers to the pressure height of the conveying liquid, usually expressed in m. Too low head will cause the infusion speed to slow down, while too high head will waste energy and reduce operating efficiency. Choosing the appropriate head is the key to ensuring the normal operation of the vane pump and extending the service life of the pump.

2. liquid properties

The physical properties of the liquid (such as temperature, viscosity, density) and chemical properties (such as corrosion) have an important impact on the selection and performance of the pump. According to the nature of the liquid, select the appropriate vane pump material and type to ensure long-term stable operation of the pump. The type of liquid delivered by the vane pump will also have an important impact on the selection of the vane pump. In the choice of liquid properties, it is necessary to consider the viscosity, density, corrosion and evaporation of the liquid to determine the material and structure suitable for transporting the liquid. Vane pumps of different materials and structures have different corrosion resistance and scope of application.

Medium temperature is one of the important parameters in the selection of vane pump. Different liquids, at different temperatures, will have different physical and chemical changes, which will have different effects on the operation of the pump. When the vane pump is used, it is necessary to select the material and structure according to the temperature of the liquid to reduce the deformation, blockage, gasification and other faults of the pump body caused by the change of the liquid temperature.

Viscosity refers to the viscosity of the liquid itself, usually expressed in units of cSt. For the transportation of high viscosity liquid, the vane pump with higher lift and lower speed should be selected to ensure that the vane pump can effectively transport high viscosity liquid. At the same time, it is also necessary to consider the problem that the viscous liquid is easy to produce cavitation and plug the pipeline, which puts forward higher requirements for the selection of the vane pump.

3. operating conditions

Consider the use environment of the pump, such as continuous operation or intermittent operation, and whether speed regulation is required. In addition, environmental factors such as ambient temperature, humidity and altitude may also affect the performance of the pump and need to be considered in the selection.

4. efficiency and power

Pump efficiency and power are key to energy consumption and operating costs. When selecting the type, the appropriate efficiency range should be selected according to the actual needs, and on the premise of meeting the performance requirements, the pump with moderate power should be selected as much as possible to reduce energy consumption and operating costs.

5. reliability

The reliability of the vane pump is very important to ensure the continuous operation of the production line. In the selection, we should pay attention to the brand, quality, life and after-sales service of the pump, and choose a manufacturer with good reputation and reputation.

6. cost

Cost is an important factor that cannot be ignored when selecting models. Under the premise of meeting the performance requirements, the initial purchase cost, operating cost and maintenance cost should be considered comprehensively, and the vane pump with high cost performance should be selected.

7. other factors

In addition, there are other factors that may affect the selection of vane pumps, such as the layout of the piping system, pump noise, vibration, and environmental requirements. In the selection process, these factors need to be taken into account to ensure that the selection of the vane pump can meet the needs of practical applications.

In summary, the selection of vane pumps involves many factors, including flow, head, liquid properties, operating conditions, efficiency and power, reliability, and cost. In the selection process, it is necessary to consider the actual needs of these factors to ensure that the selection of the vane pump can meet the operating requirements of the system.
