HOW DOES FLYGT PUMPS WORK Flygt pumps operate based on the principles of centrifugal force to move fluids efficiently. Here is a simplified explanation of how Flygt pumps work: www.pumpsupplies.co.uk 01
INTAKE AND IMPELLER The pump is submerged in the fluid (such as water or wastewater) that needs to be moved. The fluid enters the pump through the intake, which is typically located at the bottom. The impeller, a rotating component with curved vanes, is positioned at the center of the pump. www.pumpsupplies.co.uk 02
ROTATION AND CENTRIFUGAL FORCE: As the impeller spins rapidly, it creates centrifugal force. The curved vanes of the impeller push the fluid outward, increasing its velocity. This centrifugal force generates pressure within the pump, causing the fluid to move towards the outer edges. www.pumpsupplies.co.uk 03
DIFFUSER OR VOLUTES: Once the fluid reaches the outer edges of the impeller, it enters a diffuser or a volute. These components help to convert the high- velocity fluid into high-pressure flow. The diffuser or volute gradually expands in size, allowing the fluid to slow down while increasing its pressure. www.pumpsupplies.co.uk 04
DISCHARGE: The high-pressure fluid then exits the pump through the discharge outlet, where it can be transported to its intended destination, such as a treatment facility or a discharge point. Flygt pumps are capable of handling large volumes of fluid efficiently, thanks to their robust design and optimized hydraulic performance. www.pumpsupplies.co.uk 05
SUBMERSIBLE DESIGN: One notable feature of Flygt pumps is their submersible design. Being fully submerged in the fluid being pumped, these pumps eliminate the need for separate priming or suction piping. This design offers several advantages, including improved efficiency, reduced risk of airlocks, and simplified installation and maintenance. www.pumpsupplies.co.uk 06
THANK YOU It's important to note that Flygt pumps come in various models and configurations, each designed for specific applications. The specific design and features of a Flygt pump may vary depending on the intended use, such as wastewater handling, slurry pumping, or drainage. www.pumpsupplies.co.uk 07
