Questions about the uses of reciprocating pumps

This post was last edited by whthday on 2015-7-10 08:00. The reciprocating pump I designed was intended for pumping coal tar; it is now being used to pump water. What harm might this cause to the pump?
Pay attention to the load. There should be no harm.
There definitely aren’t any major problems, right? There are still some small issues, right?
Your pump can definitely be used for pumping water without any harm. It will only affect your data usage.
How does traffic have an impact? Could you explain it a bit clearer?
Since the densities are different, the mass flow rate will naturally be different as well.
Oh, okay, thank you. Mine is an oil-pumping pump; it’s currently used to pump water. Since the density of water is generally higher than that of oil, this back-and-forth movement results in a reduced flow rate.
