Between the centrifugal pump and axial flow pump is a pump is commonly referred to as the mixed-flow pump, in terms of speed, its order from large to small axial flow pump, mixed flow pump, centrifugal pump, under normal circumstances, Mixed flow pump than the speed of 300-500 between the vertical mixed flow pump is a mixed flow pump product type, its own advantages are many, but there are also some shortcomings, the following is to introduce you.
First, the advantages of vertical mixed-flow pump
Vertical mixed-flow pump operation is relatively simple, in general, the vertical pump impeller is submerged in the water, vertical mixed-flow pump is the case, so you can directly start, which is a vertical mixed flow pump Large features.
Vertical mixed flow pump installation area is still relatively small. But also contains the driver, including, compared with the horizontal pump, its installation area is only half of the horizontal pump.
In addition, the vertical mixed-flow pump is also conducive to prevent cavitation phenomenon. Since most of the vertical pump impeller is submerged in the water, so you can take a larger number of NPSH, so the pump running at a larger than the planning point of the flow will reduce the probability of cavitation phenomenon.
Second, the vertical mixed flow pump shortcomings
As the vertical mixed flow pump is vertical axis, so its vertical is relatively long, which makes it in the demolition, assembly time, lifting height is relatively high, so the top of the pump should have enough space to meet the smooth , Which is a vertical mixed flow pump a major drawback.
