DESCRIPTION
Technical Description
Side channel pumps are self-priming centrifugal pumps, and are in widespread use. They can attain relatively high pressures at low flow rates. They are able to intake and deliver liquids containing gases. The pump can be started even when there is no head of liquid in the intake pipe. The side channel stage removes the air from the intake pipe and generates the necessary suction to intake the liquid.
The pump used here is three-stage. Drive and water supply are provided by the assembly stand HL 962.
Learning Objectives / Experiments
in conjunction with HL 962, HL 962.30 and HL 962.32
- operation of a side channel pump
