Other Type of Industrial Pumps
Still cannot find what you are looking at from the front
page? Let check out some of other type of industrial pumps here.
12-volt pumps are compact and light-weight, yet still provide a comparable
level of operation as the larger models. Many submersible and sump pumps are 12 volt pumps. Many of the following
pumps come in 12 volt models.
Centrifugal
pumps operate by using centrifugal force to pull liquid away from the center of the container, where it
can then be sent through an outlet source for dispersal and application.
A chlorine pump
operates on the diaphragm system, which is one type of liquid-metering system. Chlorine pumps, however, are made of
a special material which enables them to withstand the strong chemical effects of chlorine
Many pumps are considered
"liquid-metering" pumps. These include diaphragm, injection, spray, piston, and piston spray models. A diaphragm
pump operates by increasing and decreasing volume of internal space of pump head. As the volume changes, the liquid
or contents is directed through the outlet port, where it is then directed to the application area.
To understand how an injection
pump works, think about how an ordinary hypodermic needle operates. The applicator (nozzle, spray head, or whatever
type it is) is directed at the area to which it should go; a plunger is then depressed, releasing the contents.
Spray pumps also
work on the same principal as the diaphragm method; however, the contents are released through spray nozzles that
can be adjusted for more direct application.
Piston pumps
work by the opening & closing of pistons designed to allow the release of contents through various types of
applicators. Piston spray pumps work in this fashion, but direct the contents to a spray head for release and
application.
High-pressure brass
pumps work by increasing the pressure inside the chamber until the contents are expelled. Brass is often
used in these types of pumps to counteract corroding effects of pesticides & herbicides.
Any one of the pumps listed and
described above is effective for any job that requires such equipment. Since those in the agriculture business may
often grow more than one type of crop, however, it may be necessary to have different pumps for different fields.
By determining the delicacy or hardiness of plants, the amount that has been planted, and other factors, the farmer
can then decide which pumps are right for a specific set of crops
