Centrifugal pumps are leveraged to move fluids by converting rotational energy to the fluid flow’s hydrodynamic energy. The machine’s electric motor or engine typically delivers rotational energy. These devices are a sub-category of work-absorbing, dynamic axisymmetric turbomachinery. Common applications include pumping petrochemicals and petroleum, and for agriculture, sewage, and water. Centrifugal pumps offer the advantages of simple engineering, mixing potential, compatibility with abrasive solutions, and high flow rate.

What is a Vertical Centrifugal Pump?

A vertical centrifugal pump is also called cantilever pump. It leverages a bearing and shaft support configuration which permits the volute to remain in the sump while keeping the bearings outside it. This pump type does not utilize a stuffing box to close the shaft, instead, it uses a throttle bushing element. This type of pump is commonly used in a parts washer.

What are Multistage Centrifugal Pumps?

These devices are popular as they offer engineers a flexible array of head and flow. In addition, they are highly energy-efficient making them suitable for numerous applications.

What are Vertical Multistage Pumps?Vertical multistage pumps host a vertical shaft that has stacked stages. These pumps have small clearances; therefore they are ideal for clean water uses. They can be used for • Desuperheater feed• Boiler feedwater• High-pressure shower solutions

Advantages of Vertical Multistage Pumps

These pumps are suitable for locations that don’t have much spare footprint. They are effective because they can provide high-pressure output using just a single combination of pump motor and body. Vertical multistage pumps offer the benefits of energy savings and the ability to function in a wide variety of head/flow scenarios. Consult an engineer to discuss whether this type of pump is suitable for your application and they will help you select the right product for your use.

On the flip side, this pump cannot tolerate significant solids or debris and is weak against deadhead conditions.
