Venturi Pump

Venturi
Pumps are used to draw water from hydraulic water pumps and push it
through the flow head which in turn create a continuous jet suction
effect. These kind of pumps are widely used in industrial applications.
How does a Venturi Pump works?
The working and performance of the pump depends on vacuum level, vacuum
flow, evacuation speed and air consumption. A transducer produces a
vacuum . This is done by forcing compressed air through a limiting
orifice into a venturi section. As the air exits the orifice it expands,
increasing velocity to supersonic speeds before entering the venturi
section. This creates a negative pressure or vacuum at the vacuum inlet
port located between the orifice and venturi section. This high velocity
insures efficient and effective operation.
Uses and Features
- A venturi pump is well suited for explosion proof applications.
- It is economical to operate.
- These pumps are durable and reliable.
- They do not require lubrication.
- They are made of light weight materials.
- They are compact in size.
- Valves can be removed easily without removing the pump from the
place where it is mounted.
- These types of pumps are dust resistant and prevent corrosion.
- These pumps are easy to control.
