Can a multi-stage pump be converted into a single-stage pump?
Thread Content
For example, if I have a multi-stage centrifugal pump, can I convert it directly into a single-stage pump? In that case, the original rated flow rate and head will decrease; would the minimum flow rate required also be lower?
It shouldn’t work! If the impellers are installed back to back, axial forces will cause problems
Changing to a single-stage pump results in an impeller diameter that is much larger than that of a multi-stage pump; accordingly, the disk friction loss increases. It is possible to examine the cavitation specific speed of both types of pumps – the higher this value, the narrower the allowable operating range.
Oh oh oh, so it’s not as simple as just removing an impeller then

In this way, you can provide the parameters again, so that the procurement department can use them to purchase another suitable unit
It is possible to make appropriate adjustments to the outer diameter of the stepped impeller.
