Can a regular pipeline centrifugal pump be used to handle sewage by replacing its impeller with a semi-open or open impeller?
Thread Content
Is the so-called sewage pipeline centrifugal pump just one with a different impeller?
What material is the impeller made of? Additionally, it is necessary to take into account the content of particulates in the wastewater, as well as the levels of other ions
There must be places that sell impellers, with some specializing in impellers for sewage use
It’s possible, but it’s not durable. And it’s not that you can simply switch to an open or semi-open design – the internal structure has to be modified
That’s true too; it’s uncertain whether the impeller purchased later can be used with the original pump casing
There are specialized pumps for handling sewage; they are ordinary pipeline centrifugal pumps with closed impellers, and they can’t be replaced just as easily.
Closed systems can also be used to handle wastewater, as long as it contains no impurities
Ordinary domestic wastewater always contains some impurities
