Analysis of Customer Consultation and Technical Recommendation
1. Customer Requirements Overview
The customer is seeking a transfer pump for a liquid mixture of tobacco liquid and alcohol. Here are the key parameters provided:
- Liquid Properties: The liquid is a combination of tobacco liquid and alcohol with a maximum viscosity of 10 mPa·s (equivalent to 10 cps). This indicates a relatively low-viscosity fluid, which is easier to pump as it offers less resistance to flow.
- Flow Rate and Pressure: The required capacity is 500 liters per hour (LPH), or 8.3 liters per minute (LPM), at a pressure of 2.5 bar. These are moderate flow and pressure requirements for many industrial pumps.
- Temperature: The liquid temperature is 80°C, which means the pump must be able to handle elevated temperatures without any degradation in performance or material integrity.
- Material: The pump material specified is SS316L, a high-grade stainless steel known for its excellent corrosion resistance, especially against chemicals and high-temperature environments. This is crucial given the presence of alcohol in the liquid, which can be corrosive.
- Power Supply: The pump needs to be powered by a 380-volt, 50 Hz, three-phase electrical supply with an explosion-proof motor. This is typical in hazardous environments where flammable vapors or gases may be present, such as in chemical processing or solvent handling.
2. Technical Recommendation - Magnetic Pump 6.0 - 88
Our technical team has recommended the magnetic pump 6.0 - 88 for this application. Here's why:
- Suitability for Low-Viscosity Fluids: Magnetic pumps are well-suited for pumping low-viscosity fluids like the tobacco liquid and alcohol mixture. They provide smooth and efficient flow without the need for complex sealing mechanisms that can be prone to leakage with such fluids.
- Temperature and Corrosion Resistance: The magnetic pump 6.0 - 88 can be constructed with SS316L material, ensuring it can withstand the 80°C temperature and resist corrosion from the alcohol component. This makes it a reliable choice for long-term operation in this environment.
- Pressure and Flow Capabilities: The pump is capable of delivering the required flow rate of 500 LPH at 2.5 bar pressure, meeting the customer's operational needs precisely.
- Explosion-Proof Motor: The pump can be equipped with an explosion-proof motor, which is essential for safety in environments where the mixture of tobacco liquid and alcohol may create flammable conditions. This ensures compliance with safety regulations and protects against potential hazards.
