Today we will understand the precautions of forth pump operation. CNSEM ®  will give you a brief introduction. Let's have a look together.

When the forh pump is running, it is necessary to check the operation of the bearing assembly regularly. If the bearing is heated during open operation, it is necessary to stop the pump and wait for the pump shaft to cool down before running again. If the temperature of the bearing is still too high, and the temperature continues to rise, it is necessary to disassemble the bearing assembly of the pump shaft to check what the reason is.

General bearing heating is mostly caused by too much grease, or by magazines in grease. The amount of bearing grease should be appropriate, but also need to ensure cleanliness, and grease should be added regularly.

The performance of the forth pump deteriorates with the increase of the wear interval of the impeller and the protection plate, and the efficiency decreases. Therefore, the impeller should be adjusted upward in time, so as to maintain a certain interval so that the forth pump can maintain high efficiency operation.

When the forth pump wear cannot meet the needs of the system, it should be replaced in time.

Slurry pumps are divided into horizontal slurry pumps and vertical slurry pumps based on the relationship between the pump shaft position to the water level it is a vertical slurry pump when the pump’ shaft is perpendicular to the water level, which is also called a sump pump because its pump head is immersed in slurry.

Casings of vertical pumps are made of abrasion-resistant metal, as well as impellers, and are also available in other materials like natural rubber or polyurethane. Bearings are lubricated by grease.

Vertical pumps can be driven by V belts, pulleys, or flexible couplings. They realize their overall performance through various speeds and different impeller selections, which helps guarantee the pumps' operation at their best. Vertical pumps have a long servicing life, high working efficiency, and can meet many kinds of arduous slurry transferring applications.

Vertical pumps are widely used in metallurgy sectors, mine sites, coal, power plants, construction, and environmental protection, and they play an important role!
