Dayton 2ZWN9 centrifugal pump is ideal for dispensing fluid at high pressure and speed. It is used in water supply and distribution, wastewater treatment, irrigation, HVAC systems, chemical processing, oil refining and power generation tasks.
Working Mechanism:
- Ensure that the pump and suction lines are filled with the fluid to be pumped to create a prime, ensuring efficient operation.
- Switch on the motor that drives the pump, initiating the pumping process.
- As the motor rotates, it drives the pump impeller, which is mounted directly onto the motor shaft. The impeller creates centrifugal force.
- The spinning impeller draws fluid into the pump through the suction inlet.
- The centrifugal force generated by the rotating impeller causes the fluid to move outward and upward towards the outer edge of the impeller.
- As the fluid moves outward, it gains velocity and kinetic energy due to the high-speed rotation of the impeller.
- The fluid exits the impeller through the discharge outlet located at the periphery of the impeller.
Features:
- It has a cast iron body for structural rigidity and longevity.
- This pump offers overload protection and also protects against overheating and electrical faults.
- It features a carbon / ceramic mechanical seal to prevent leaks and ensure efficient operation.
- The pump's semi-open impeller design efficiently handles solids and debris, reducing clogging and improving pump efficiency.
Compatible Accessories:
- Dayton 3ACE6 Shaft Seal: It is used in machinery and equipment with rotating shafts requiring sealing to prevent leakage.
