Introduction
One of the first pieces of powered machinery to be invented at the dawn of the
industrial age was a crude form of pump. The pump has since evolved into an
endless variety of types, sizes, and applications.
Operators should become familiar with the diversity of pumps that are in existence
as they may be required to safely operate pumps in the normal course of their daily
routines. A functional understanding of pumps, their use, and application, is
essential to understanding how most processes are handled in plants today.
Theory of Pumping
Important Definitions
Theory of Pumping
Friction Head
When the pump puts the water in motion, this water will meet resistance in the pipes,
valves and fittings. To overcome this resistance a certain amount of pressure is
required. This pressure is called the friction head and is also expressed in metres or
feet of water.
Velocity Head
A force is required to put the water in motion. This is called the velocity head.
Pressure or Equivalent Head

When the pump discharges the water into a vessel under pressure, such as a boiler, it
has to impart additional pressure to the water in order to overcome the boiler pressure.
This extra pressure is called the pressure or equivalent head.
Theory of Pumping
Dynamic Head
Friction, and velocity head are required to move the water from the source of supply
into the discharge vessel. For this reason we call the sum of these heads the dynamic
(force in motion) head.
Total Head
The total head required to move the water from the source of supply to the point of
discharge is the sum of static and dynamic head.
The power required to drive a pump is determined by the amount of liquid pumped and
the total head against which the pump operates.

Construction
Construction 1- Impeller
Construction 1- Impeller
• It converts the mechanical rotation to the velocity of

the liquid.
• It has an inlet eye through which the liquid suction
occurs. The liquid is then guided from the inlet to the
outlet of the impeller by vanes. The angle and shape
of the vanes are designed based on flow rate.
• The guide vanes are usually cast with a back plate,
termed shroud or back cover, and a front plate,
termed front cover.
• Impellers are generally made in castings and very
rarely do come across fabricated and welded
impellers. Impellers can have many features on them
like balancing holes and back vanes. These help in
reducing the axial thrust generated by the hydraulic
pressure.
Construction
Construction
Closed Impellers
The closed impeller consists of radial vanes

(typically 3–7 in number), which are enclosed
from both sides by two discs termed ‘shrouds’.
These have a wear ring on the suction eye and
may or may not have one on the back shroud.
Impellers that do not have a wear ring at the
back typically have back vanes. Pumps with
closed type impellers and wear rings on both
sides have a higher efficiency.
Construction
Semi-Open Impellers
The semi-open type impellers are more

efficient due to the elimination of disk friction
from the front shroud and are preferred when
the liquid used may contain suspended
particles or fibers. The axial thrust generated
in semi-open impellers is usually higher than
closed impellers.
Construction
Open Impellers
These are used in applications where the

suspended solid’s size maybe large or the
solid’s maybe of crystals and fibers type.

Construction 3- Wear Rings

• In order to prevent leakage between the rotating impeller
and pump casing wear rings are used.
• They are installed on impeller or casing or both. They
reduced the clearance between the impeller and the
casing to a very small amount.
• The smaller the clearance the smaller amount of liquid
transferred from the high pressure discharge side to the
low pressure suction side and the higher the efficiency will
be.
• They also prevent the wear of pump impeller and/or the
casing, hence their name. They are made of soft material
that can be sacrificed like bronze or cast iron.

Wearing rings are installed on the hub of

the impeller by either threading or
shrinking.
Casing wearing rings consist of either a
continuous ring or two half rings which
are pressed into place.
The continuous ring is used with
vertically split casings while
horizontally split casings are equipped
with wearing rings consisting of two
halves.
Split rings can be fitted onto a ridge or
into a groove of the casing which will
prevent any axial movement should the
rings work loose.
Construction
Construction 4- Shaft Sealing
Compression
Packing
• Packing is made from a wide variety
of materials, some of which are
asbestos, nylon, flax, Teflon, lead,
copper and aluminum.
• Frequently a lubricating material,
called the saturant, such as graphite or
grease, is incorporated into the
packing material.
Compression
Packing
Compression
Packing
Packing in the stuffing boxes of a
centrifugal pump is not supposed to stop
leakage entirely, it only should throttle the
fluid. The reason for this is that the
packing acts as a bearing and must be
lubricated as such. Lubrication comes
from slight leakage of fluid from the
pump or, in emergency, from a lubricant
in the packing. It is sometimes necessary
to provide lubricant from an outside
source.
Compression
Packing

Compression
Packing
The lantern ring (also called the seal cage) is a
metal ring having radial holes and it serves to
distribute the sealing water to the packing. The
sealing water not only helps to prevent air leakage
but also lubricates the packing and this water is
usually supplied from a higher pressure section of
the pump. In cases where the pump is pumping
water containing sand or grit or other abrasives,
then clean sealing water may be supplied from a
separate source.
Compression
Packing
Compression
Packing
Pump packing has to be replaced periodically
due to its deterioration from being compressed
and from loss of saturant. How often this has to
be done will depend upon the operating
conditions of the pump, the quality of the
packing used, and the care with which the
packing was installed and adjusted. The
frequency of replacement of the packing may
vary between a matter of months in the case of
severe operating conditions, to several years
under more moderate conditions.
Compression Packing Replacement

The recommended steps for replacing packing are as follows:
• Shut down, isolate and drain pump. Make sure pump motor switch is
locked open or fuses removed and switch tagged with a "Do Not Operate"
warning tag.
• Remove gland adjusting nuts and slide gland away from the stuffing box. Then remove all the old packing using some
type of packing hook. Make sure the stuffing box is thoroughly clean and free from any small pieces of old packing.
Check that the sealing water connection to stuffing box is clear.
• Check the conditions of the shaft or the shaft sleeve if a sleeve is installed over the shaft. If the surface is grooved or
scored, then it should be replaced as any rough surface will damage the packing.
• To determine the correct size (thickness) of packing to use, measure the bore of the stuffing box and subtract the
diameter of the pump shaft and divide the difference by two.

• Then wrap a coil of the correct size packing around a rod (same diameter as
shaft and held in a vise) and cut through each turn. If the packing is slightly
too large, never flatten it with a hammer. Place each turn on a clean surface
and roll it out with a piece of pipe.

• Install the packing rings one at a time
after putting a light coating of oil or
grease on the inner diameter of each
ring. Slide each ring sideways over the
shaft. to prevent breaking of the ring.

• Tamp the rings into place
one at a time using a split
wooden bushing or metal
ring to push each ring into
the stuffing box.
• Make sure the ring joints
are staggered and the
lantern ring lines up
properly with the sealing
water inlet.
• Put packing follower in place and compress the packing slightly by tightening the gland nuts. Then
slacken off to just finger tight to allow for packing expansion. In the case of small pumps the shaft
should turn freely by hand.
• The packing should be allowed to leak freely when the pump is first started. After about twenty minutes
of running the follower should be gradually tightened until only the necessary operating leakage is
apparent.
• The above method of installation of packing in stuffing boxes is essentially the same for centrifugal,
rotary and reciprocating pumps.
Mechanical Seal
Instead of employing a stuffing box with packing, many pumps use mechanical seals to prevent leakage along the shaft.
Mechanical seals have the following advantages over packing.
1. They require much less maintenance.
2. They do not produce wear of shafts or shaft sleeves as do packing rings.
3. They reduce leakage to a minimum.
4. They can be designed to work under very high temperatures and pressures.

On the other hand, mechanical seals have a greater first cost than packing, and when they fail, the pump must be taken
out of service for a longer period to replace the seal than would be necessary with the simple stuffing box and packing
method.

• The materials chosen for the sealing and mating rings depend
upon such things as the type of liquid being pumped, its
temperature, its pressure, pump speed and seal design.
• Materials frequently used by various seal manufacturers are

bronze, carbon graphite, ceramics, stellite, and tungsten
carbide.

Care of Mechanical Seals
It is extremely important that the seals never run in a dry condition, otherwise the faces will become
grooved and scored. The following precautions should therefore be followed:
1. Never run the pump in a dry condition even for a few minutes.
2. Vent any air present from the seal housing before start up.
3. Make sure an adequate flow of quenching or cooling liquid is flowing to the seal.
A squealing sound is an indication of a dry seal but this sound is not always present if the seal runs dry.
Mechanical Seal
A leaking seal may be caused by the following:
1. Seal faces scored or grooved.
2. Seal housing bolts too tight, causing distortion of rings.
3. "O" ring gaskets cut or nicked during installation.
4. Misalignment of piping, causing distortion of pump parts.
5. Excessive pump shaft vibration.

Operation

Operation CAUTION:
1. Never run a centrifugal pump continuously with the discharge valve completely
closed. The mechanical power applied to the impeller is dispelled as friction to the
water trapped and churned about in the casing. This friction causes overheating of
the water to the point where it turns into steam which may result in damage to the
pump.
2. Always operate a centrifugal pump with its suction valve wide open. Never use it
for flow control. Throttling or closing of this valve starves the impeller of its water
supply and the casing becomes partially empty resulting in excessive vibration
which may ruin the bearings. The lack of liquid also affects stuffing boxes and seals
which require a certain amount of liquid for lubrication and cooling.

General Symptoms of Cavitation and its Affects Pump Performance and Pump Parts
• Reduction in capacity of the pump
• Decrease in the head developed
• Abnormal sound and vibrations
Cavitation implies a dynamic process of formation of bubbles inside the liquid, their growth and
subsequent collapse as the liquid flows through the pump.

• With the advent of laser technology, alignments can

be achieved to high degrees of accuracy.
• A laser alignment system uses a laser diode to
produce a straight laser beam.
• These beams can be either visible or invisible to
the naked eye.
• The laser beams may be Class 1 (invisible) or Class
2 (visible).
• Looking directly into the laser beam without
protection is not recommended.
Laser Alignment
Advantages of Laser Alignment
• Good for long spans
• Gives consistent, accurate results
• Avoids mistakes in calculation
• Has fast set-up and most system brackets are
easily attached to the machine
• Avoids the problem of bracket sag

Laser Alignment
Disadvantages of Laser Alignment
• The equipment has high initial cost
• Heat sources can have a negative effect on the
accuracy of the beam
• Equipment calibration must be checked
regularly
