For transporting flammable solvents, what is the typical flow rate in the outlet pipeline of a centrifugal pump?
Thread Content
Brothers, when using a stainless steel centrifugal pump with a capacity of 12.5 m³/h to transport toluene in pipes with a diameter of DN40, is this flow rate too high? Second, under normal circumstances, what is the flow rate at the pump outlet when transporting a solvent?
For a flow rate of 12.5 m³/h, a DN40 pipe can handle it. However, when transporting flammable solvents, safety considerations must be taken into account; it is best to use pumps with explosion-proof features. Under normal circumstances, when transporting flammable solvents, the flow rate at the pump outlet should be kept below 1.5 meters per second to ensure safe and stable transportation. .
