Question:

Installation position of check valve for water pump

Installation position of check valve for water pump

Answer:

Check valves are generally installed at the pump outlet and exit control valve position. Self suction pump check valve installed in front of the pump, suction port better!Ordinary centrifugal pump check valve flange from the pump outlet flange is generally 300mm-500mm, its purpose is: when the pump is stopped, to prevent backflow of water to the pump body in the pipeline, resulting in the impeller reversal (generally positive rotation is more impeller impeller and shaft tight) that damage the impeller and pump head. Therefore, the height can not be too high, too high, there are too many water reflux, the consequences can be imagined.But there are self suction pumps, self suction pumps, check valves, flanges, pumps from the body, the outlet flange generally 1 meters to 1.5 meters.This is determined by the structure and working conditions of the self-priming pump. Self suction pump start, the pump is a gas at first, the main purpose is to exhaust the rotation of the impeller, will also play out some of the water, this time need to exhaust gas, water will need to return, if the valve is installed in the 300mm-500mm, then a lot of water can not return to the pump body (can also cause check valve is closed), effect of self suction pump work.Self suction pump check valve installed in the suction port of the pump better, this is not upstairs nine, brother said, must be installed in the export, this is wrong. Installed in the inlet of the purpose: it is time to stop the pump, there is generally no reversal of pump impeller, but to prevent the pipeline inside emptying (fluid inside the pipe can be in pipe) is beneficial to the self suction pump for a restart! Therefore, the self-priming pump check valve is best installed in the inlet pipe of the suction port.
Check valves must be installed at the pump's exit and position before the outlet control valve for servicing the check valve.Jiang Yuanyuan 1985's statement has a problem:1. On the flow of water, because the fluid is continuous and incompressible, the water in any part of the pipe will not flow as long as it is cut off in any position in the pipe.2, self suction exhaust is formed within the pump in outlet pipe, check valve installed in the inlet, because the pressure is low, is not conducive to automatically open the check valve, and its resistance, easy to form a vacuum pump and cavitation.
Check valves are normally installed at the pump's exit position!Check valve, also known as check valve, the specific installation needs to determine the direction of the pipeline!If the pipe in the installation position is vertical, you can choose the swing type and pipe type!If the installation position of the pipe is horizontal, you can choose the lifting type!Lift check valve opens and stops at the fastest speed!The swing check valve has the least resistance!The pipe type check valve is mostly in the form of clip type installation, which is suitable for the place where the installation distance is not enough!
