This course is designed to provide delegates with a detailed and up-to-date overview on the proper selection, installation, performance and control of pumps. It covers pump construction covering centrifugal pump, pump curves, characteristics, most common end-suction and in-line pump types, impeller and casing types, single-stage and multistage pumps, long coupled and close-coupled pumps as well as various types of pumps and mechanical shaft seals including its components, functions and factors affecting the seal performance.
The course will enable the participants to describe motors, liquids and materials and employ proper installation of pumps as well as analyze pump performance, system characteristics and pumps connected in series and parallel. Participants will be able to adjust pump performance and describe speed-controlled pump solutions for constant pressure and temperature control, constant differential pressure in a circulating system and flow compensated differential pressure control.
