Pump casing installation method

API 610 is the international standard for centrifugal pumps used in the oil, chemical, and gas industries. Based on the pump casing installation method you mentioned, we can provide more details as follows: 1. Near-centerline-mounted: Pumps installed in this manner are typically designed to handle high-temperature fluids, with the pump’s support feet positioned near the centerline of the pump casing. Since hot fluids can cause the pump to expand, support near the centerline helps keep the pump aligned during thermal expansion and contraction, thereby avoiding additional stresses caused by thermal deformation. Pumps of this type usually include high-temperature water pumps or pumps used in other industrial processes to handle high-temperature fluids. 2. In-line mounted: Pumps that are installed in an in-line manner, also known as directly-connected pumps, have their suction and discharge ports aligned with the axis of the pipeline, and they are usually connected directly to the pipeline system. These pumps are compactly designed, and their installation and maintenance are relatively simple, as they can be installed or removed without moving the pipes. Pump-type pumps are commonly used in water supply systems, HVAC systems, and light industrial applications. Regarding the photos or descriptions you requested, since this is a text-based response, I am unable to provide images directly. However, you can search the Internet for pictures and detailed information on the aforementioned pumps; for example, you can search for “near-centerline-mounted pump” and “in-line pump” or “directly-connected pump,” and you will usually find pictures of the product designs as well as more detailed technical specifications. This can help you better understand the appearance and installation method of these pumps. In addition, many pump manufacturers’ official websites also provide detailed product catalogs and technical specifications, which usually include pictures of the pumps and information on how to install them. .

The installation method shall still be in accordance with the requirements of this manual. For reference.
