What is the role of adding an eccentric reducer to the inlet when the pump is suctioning horizontally?

The eccentricity of the pump inlet and large heads is mainly to prevent the generation of air bags, which may easily cause cavitation of the pump. Generally, the upper feed adopts a low flat eccentric large and small head. ; The lower feed adopts a flat top and eccentric head.

The correct answer to the 2nd floor! But it should be added that if the material is solid-containing material, in order to prevent the deposition of solid materials, the upper feed uses a top-flat eccentric head, and the lower feed uses a bottom-flat eccentric head, which is contrary to the usual practice! ! At this time, a degassing pipe can be added to solve the cavitation problem of the pump. :)
