Pump balance line pressure
Thread Content
What is the typical pressure in a balance tube? Does the level of pressure affect the operation of the pump?
The pressure in the balance line mainly depends on the pump’s outlet pressure; it is related to the pump’s outlet pressure and has no fixed value
It depends on the design of the balance disc piston and the actual operating conditions
The pressure in the pump’s balance tube corresponds to the pressure at the pump’s outlet; it serves primarily to balance the axial force, so that the thrust bearings only have to bear the residual axial force.
