Unbearable
As a bit of advice, use mechanical seals whenever it is an option over packing. We had Chilled Water Pumps that used packing as the Contactor which supplied it chose the default cheaper option, ended up being a maintenance nightmare. Some engineering mods were done to change out the packing in the stuffing box as well as upgrade the bearing lube oil to try and make it more resilient to water, no dice. It got so bad the maintenace folks welded sheet metal shields over where the housing met the shaft to stop water leakage spraying everywhere over the chiller room.
Installed mechanical cartridge seals and the pumps have caused no problems since.

hi admin.
is this centrifugal pump can be use as motor generator to construct hydro power electricity by attaching the peltron turbines to the pump to spins the motor backwards without any changes in the motor?
will there be power loses in the motor?
thanks

It is important to note that centrifugal pumps can be driven by any mode of force, that is a diesel engine, gas engine, hydraulics, or steam turbine just to name a few. It is the impeller that defines a centrifugal pump.

So what does the electric motor have to do with how centrifugal pumps work, the pump can de driver by any rotating machine. Dont mean to diminish your efforts but too much time spent on the electric motor.

Please do a video on how a variomatic engine works on gearless two-wheelers. I have never understood how these scooters accelerate so fast with small 125 cc engines. Thanks in advance.

How do you create such animation? Im amazed by how every piece can easily slide away from its assembly whats the process on how to make this, and what apps did you use? Thx

3: 40 blue water droplets ought to be on the other side of tracing lines as water is rather pushed than it does the pushing

Can you make the video on mechanical seal used in pump and reactor and in which conditions these seals are used

Interesting. I have always wondered how ny irrigation pump works! Only difference, my pump runs on gasoline.
