Function: The backplate provides structural support and helps in mounting the pump.

b. NPSH (Net Positive Suction Head):

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.

Horizontal Inline Centrifugal Pumps: Versatility and Reliability

Function: Liners protect the pump casing from the abrasive action of the slurry.

The design of the volute is crucial for the efficiency of the pump. A well-designed volute minimizes flow separation and turbulence, ensuring a smooth transition of the fluid from the impeller to the discharge pipe. The volute shape is typically spiral, which facilitates a uniform flow distribution. If the volute is improperly designed, it can lead to inefficiencies such as cavitation, vibrations, and noise, significantly affecting the pump's overall performance.

Function: The expeller and expeller rings work together to reduce the pressure and minimize leakage from the pump.
