CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS

Elastec manufactures centrifugal pumps that are suitable for a variety of applications including liquid transfer, flushing, dewatering, etc. These pumps can be either hydraulically driven or driven by an engine, depending on the application and model. Contact us to discuss your project specifications.

Centrifugal pumps are devices used to move liquids from one point to another by utilizing centrifugal force. They consist of a casing, impeller, shaft, and motor. The impeller, a rotating disc with vanes, is the heart of the pump. As the impeller spins, it creates a centrifugal force, pushing the liquid outward towards the casing.

The fluid is drawn into the pump’s suction port, enters the impeller, and is accelerated by the rotating vanes. This acceleration increases the fluid’s kinetic energy, which is then converted into pressure as the fluid is forced out of the pump’s discharge port. The casing channels the fluid from the impeller to the discharge port, preventing the fluid from flowing backward.
