The Benefits/Advantages of Mixed Flow pump
Mixed flow pumps are a type of centrifugal pump that combines characteristics of both axial flow and radial flow pumps. These pumps are designed to handle large volumes of fluid at relatively low to medium heads. Here are some benefits and advantages of mixed flow pumps:
-
DESIGN FEATURES: Mixed flow pumps develop their head partly by centrifugal force and partly by the lift of the vane on the liquid. These pumps are suitable for handling large quantities of water at relatively low head. Owing to their large cross sectional flow areas they can pump liquid with impurities even soft solids and sludge within limits.
-
CASING: It is of volute type, swept back in the direction of centreline of impeller flow. Supporting feet are cast integral with the casing.
-
SHAFT: Liberally designed shaft is mounted on deep groove heavy duty bearings, set wide apart, based on Gita's exclusive design principle for long trouble free pump life.
-
FLANGES: Drilled to BS-10 table D drilling as per ISS, Din are also available on request.
-
IMPELLER: Both open and closed type impellers are available. Impeller vanes are designed for high efficiency incorporating most modern hydraulic design principles.
-
ROTATION: Counter clock wise looking from suction side.
