Pumps
Pumps
• Pumps are essential in various industries like water treatment, oil and gas,
chemical processing and more.
Type of Pumps
-Piston Pumps
-Rotary lobe or Gear Pumps
Pumps Key Differences
• Volume Consistency
Positive displacement pumps move a fixed volume per cycle, while the
volume can vary in non-positive displacement pumps.
• Efficiency
Positive displacement pumps are generally more efficient for high-viscosity
fluids, while non-positive displacement pumps are more efficient for low-
viscosity fluids.
• Viscosity
Positive displacement pumps are generally more efficient for high-viscosity
fluids, while non-positive displacement pumps are more efficient for low-
viscosity fluids.
Pumps Key Differences
• Pressure Handling
Positive displacement pumps are better suited for high-pressure
applications, whereas non-positive displacement pumps are often used in
low to moderate pressure systems.
