In the following cases, the suction head "H" must be checked:
To prevent cavitation, the minimum suction pressure must be set on the pump, and the suction head "H" of the pump can be calculated using the following formula:
If the calculated H value is (+), suction is possible as much as "H"
If the calculated value is (-), pressurization is required as much as "H"
The table below shows the maximum allowable suction pressure for each pump.Also, the cutoff pressure (pressure of the pump with the discharge valve completely closed) + actual suction pressure must not exceed the maximum allowable operating pressure of the pump.(Cutoff pressure + actual suction pressure) < (maximum allowable operating pressure) If this is exceeded, the motor bearings, shaft seals, or pump housing may be damaged or their service life may be shortened.
The graph below shows the ratio of minimum flow rate to nominal flow rate as a function of temperature.
When installing the pump at an ambient temperature and height exceeding the rated temperature, the motor output (P2) should be kept lower than the rated output to account for the reduced cooling performance due to the low density of the air, and in some cases, a motor with one order of magnitude greater power should be used.
If the fluid has a higher density and viscosity than water, pump performance will deteriorate (pressure and flow rate will decrease) and power consumption will also increase. In this case, a pump and motor with a larger capacity must be selected.
