What are the differences between centrifugal pumps, magnetic drive pumps, plunger pumps, vacuum pumps, etc.?
Magnetic pump: Its feature is leaklessness, and it is mainly used for transporting highly flammable, explosive, or valuable liquids. Plunger pump: It features a relatively constant flow rate, with pressure that can be adjusted as desired. It is mainly used for transporting liquids with relatively high pressure and high viscosity, and can also be used for metering. Vacuum pump: As the name implies, it is mainly used for creating a vacuum. Centrifugal pumps: They are the most widely used; with appropriate sealing and auxiliary systems, they can operate under virtually all working conditions.
