A water pump is an electromechanical machine used to increase the pressure of water to move it from one point to another. Modern water pumps are used throughout the world to supply water for municipal, industrial, agricultural, and residential uses.
Water pumps also are used to move wastewater in sewage treatment plants. Modern water pumps most often are driven by electricity, but other power sources also are used—for example, diesel or gasoline engines. In some remote areas, such as desert regions, solar panels may be used to supply power to small pumps.
Types of water pump
There are several types of water pumps including positive displacement pumps and centrifugal pumps, which provide the same service, however, operate differently. We are the industry leader in water pumps hence we sell the best water pump in Nigeria.
The core concept of a water pump is to use a Pressure Tanks motor to convert rotational energy or kinetic energy and turn it into energy for moving fluid or for fluid flow (hydrodynamic energy).
The Centrifugal pumps work with an impeller, fluid enters through the rotating impeller and is expelled out through centrifugal force through the impeller’s tips. The process of this increases the velocity and pressure of the fluid and directs it toward the outlet of the pump. A type of centrifugal pump is a submersible pump.
Applications of centrifugal pump
Water is very essential for efficient farming. Often such water is found in various sources like borewells, ponds, wells, streams, and rivers. A water pump machine is the most effective means of lifting water from these sources. There are different types of pumps available. Choosing the right type of pump depends upon the suction lift and delivery head.
