Function: The pump casing contains the slurry and guides it through the pump.

Moreover, the volute's cross-sectional area is carefully calculated to match the flow rate and pressure requirements of the system. An oversized volute may lead to low efficiency, as the fluid may not maintain its velocity to generate adequate pressure. Conversely, a volute that is too small can cause excessive pressure buildup, risking damage to the pump and downstream equipment.

Selecting the right type of impeller is essential for the pump's performance. For instance, if a pump is expected to handle a high volume of sewage containing large solids, an open impeller would be more effective. Conversely, if the pump is mainly handling gray water with minimal solids, a semi-open or enclosed impeller would suffice.
