Positive displacement pumps Case 3: viscous product η = 500–100,000 mPa s Step 3: calculat e absorbed power N [kW]. N = (2 × p + V) × n × C 1000 p = pressure in bar ∪ H/10 V = viscosity factor n = speed at H = 0 C = flow rate/revolution [l/rev.] Example :

Mechanical seals are devices to seal machines between rotating parts (shafts), and stationary parts (pump housing). There are two types of mechanical seals: • single mechanical seals • double mechanical seals Mechanical seals consist of two surfaces which slide against each other The surfaces are pressed together by a spring. Between these two surfaces a fluid film is generated by the pumped product. This fluid film prevents that the mechanical seal touches the stationary ring. The absence of this fluid film will result in frictional heat and the destruction of the mechanical seal (dry run of the pump).
