Fluid Transfer Pump Systems

About Fluid Transfer Pump Systems

Fluid transfer ppump systems are used in processing, water purification and desalination, or liquid handling applications. Some products are used in heat transfer applications or fluid flow and heat transfer applications. Others are designed to transport a heat transfer fluid or coolant. A fluid transfer pump system is defined by the fluid transfer pump type, material of construction, media pumped, industries or applications served, pressure and flow levels, and physical orientation. Fluid transfer pump systems use two basic types of pumping action: dynamic and displacement. A dynamic or kinetic fluid transfer system imparts energy to the fluid, often by increasing its velocity to a level greater than that allowed by the fluid outlet port. By contrast, a displacement pump compresses a fluid by decreasing the volume of fluid in a special fluid transfer chamber. Many configurations of piston-cylinder combinations, diaphragm oscillation, and rotating members are used to achieve this compression in fluid transfer pump systems.
