Centrifugal pump baffle
Thread Content
I recently bought a pump, and it mentions something called a partition strip. Where exactly is this partition strip located in the pump? I checked online, but the information there was rather vague. It seems that the partition in the volute is used to separate the intake from the exhaust flow, but I didn’t notice this during previous maintenance tasks. Could someone with expertise please explain this? It would be great if there could be photos to help illustrate it, so I can understand it more clearly. Thank you!
The function of the baffle is to prevent the medium at the inlet from swirling, which could otherwise lead to vaporization of the medium and the formation of cavitation. The baffle is generally cast inside the pump inlet pipe.
There is such a claim, but when I searched online, most sources said it was at the exit; it’s a bit confusing!
When talking about export, does it refer to double volutes?

Could you send it to my email? 523326516@qq.com
At the water inlet of the pump, it is possible to reduce water vortices and voids, thereby minimizing cavitation. The image I posted shows a coated version, which is used for protection as well as to save energy and reduce consumption. It’s more intuitive without a coating.
