Hot water pump selection
Thread Content
The operating conditions for the hot water pump are as follows: Medium: hot water at 160°C and 5 barg; head: 15 m; flow rate: 40 m3/h. A packing seal is not required; centrifugal pumps with mechanical seals, or magnetic pumps or shielded pumps, are acceptable. The main considerations are an attractive appearance in the installation site (no leakage allowed) and reduced maintenance workload. Please recommend models that have been successfully used in practice – avoid purely theoretical pump selections to minimize risks! Thank you
160 degrees is not a high temperature; pumps that meet ANSI or IC standards will work fine. To prevent leaks, an mechanical seal would be better – just ask the manufacturer to provide one for you
I have extensive experience with shielded pumps; feel free to add me on QQ: 79753774 for further discussion.
