Abstract:
A waste water pump includes an impeller (10) having a suction port (12) with a sealing surface (14) which annularly surrounds this and which bears on a stationary seal (18). At least one groove (28) is formed in the sealing surface (14) and to both sides extends beyond a bearing-contact region of the stationary seal (18) on the sealing surface (14). The stationary seal (18) having a first end (30) in connection with an impeller side chamber (20) and an opposite second end (32) is in connection with the suction side of the impeller (10). The pump also includes means (34) for producing turbulences arranged in the impeller side chamber (20) adjacent the seal (18).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for controlling a pump for feeding fluid (F) into a heating system (1000). The heating system has a hot fluid tank (HFT) receiving fluid from an associated fluid reservoir line (5) with an incoming fluid mass flow rate (dmcw/dt). A pump (P) receives fluid from the line, and pumps the received fluid with amass flow rate (dmc/dt). A heat exchanging unit (HX) transfers heat (Q) to the fluid (F) from a medium (R). The transferred heat (Q) is maximized by controlling the pump (P1) in response to this information indicative of the transferred heat (Q), the fluid mass flow rate delivered by the pump thereby having a minimum as a function of the incoming fluid mass flow rate (dmcw/dt) when maximizing the transferred heat. The invention provides significantly improved heat transfer to the fluid and power savings for the pump. The invention also relates to a heating system, e.g. a heat pump system.
Abstract:
A centrifugal pump (1) includes several pump stages, which are arranged axially between a head part (4) and a foot part (2). The pump stages are surrounded peripherally by an outer casing (3). An axial end of the outer casing (3) is fastened on the head part (4), and the other axial end on the foot part (2). A mechanical connection between the head part (4) and the foot part (2) is formed by the outer casing (3).
Abstract:
A multistage centrifugal pump includes a foot part (1) and a head part (7), between which several pump stages are arranged. Each of the pump stages includes an impeller (4) and a housing (5) surrounding the impeller (4). The housings (5) are arranged over one another. The housings (5) together with an outer casing (9) form an annular channel (8). The housings (5) together with an outer casing (9) are clamped via clamping bolts (11) which are fastened on the head part (7) and the foot part (1). The clamping bolts (11) are arranged within the annular channel (8).
Abstract:
A control method for a pump assembly (10, 12) in a pneumatic or hydraulic system controls a speed (n) of the pump assembly (10, 12) in dependence on at least one variable (Dp, p, T, xp) which is detected in the system. An error signal (e) is produced from the detected variable (Dp, p, T, xp) on the basis of a sectionwise monotonic function. On the basis of the error signal, the speed (n) of the pump assembly (10, 12) is controlled.
Abstract:
An impeller (2) for a centrifugal pump includes a first shroud having a plurality of blades (8). A second shroud is joined onto the first shroud by way of welding. Each blade (8) has an apex region (12), at which the blade contacts the second shroud. At least one of the blades (8) in a first section (20) of the apex region (12) has a weld connection to the second shroud, and in at least one second section (14) of the apex region (12) is free of a weld connection.
Abstract:
A method controls a circulation pump (1) in an installation with at least two circulation circuits (3, 4), with which the circulation pump (1) is integrated by way of a switch-over valve (2) into the one or the other circulation circuit (3 or 4) depending on the switched position. The pump (1) is activated differently depending on the switched position of the switch-over valve (2). The switch-over procedure is detected by way of determining the pressure course and/or the flow rate course in the pump (1) or an electrical variable which is dependent thereon, of the motor driving the pump, and the pump (1) is operated in another manner accordingly.
Abstract:
A wet-running centrifugal pump includes an electric motor (1) and a centrifugal pump (7) which is driven thereby. The electric motor (1) has a rotor (4) which is rotatably arranged within the stator (3). A canned pot (13), which carries a motor-side bearing for the rotor (4), is provided between the rotor and the stator. Moreover, a bearing plate (19) is provided, which carries a pump-side bearing for the rotor (4), wherein the bearing plate (19) is fixed on the housing side, and in the region of the pump-side bearing immerses into the canned pot. A radial seal (20) is provided between the bearing plate (19) and the canned pot (13).
Abstract:
A filter element is provided for a filter element stack. The filter element includes a carrier body (4), at least one spacer which can be subjected to throughflow and at least one filter membrane covering this. The spacer at least partly is formed by a knitted fabric of plastic threads which on one side is covered by a membrane of plastic material, to which it is fixedly connected, and forms a filter material (8) to be fastened on the carrier body (4) with a positive fit (FIG. 5).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device and a method for detecting particles, in particular parasites, in drinking water adapted to on-line application. In particular, the invention b) relates to a method for detecting parasites in water, said method comprising: Passing at least a part of the water through a filter; Applying indirect sonication with ultrasound to said filter to release parasites which have been collected in said filter without disrupting said parasites; Collecting parasites for detection; and Detecting the collected parasites. This serves to collect parasites in the filter and/or increase the concentration of parasites before the filter and/or disrupt aggregates without disrupting the parasites per se. The invention further relates to a concentration device for filter filtration concentration of particles from a volume of a fluid. The concentration device comprises an ultrasonic transducer that is configured to clean the filter.
