What is a centrifugal pump?
A type of kinetic pump consisting of a rotating impeller in a casing volute. This type of pump transfers rotational energy from a spinning impeller to the liquid.
How do centrifugal pumps work?
By design, centrifugal pumps operate in one direction of rotation and one direction of flow. Liquid enters the suction port, through the eye on an impeller and is pushed out radially toward the discharge port.
What are centrifugal pumps used for?
Centrifugal pumps are widely used in a number of applications – including water supply or treatment systems, irrigation, and chemical processing.
