What is the air lift pump?

Air lifting pump is a device that uses the principles of gravity and inertia to pump water by injection of the compressed air flow into the pipe filled with a column of water. This established air causes the water to flow up and out of the pipe, resulting in a constant flow of water from the pump. Due to its simplicity, the air lifting pump is suitable for use, where water contaminants would damage the mechanical pump or where liquids or porridge, require minimal mechanical agitation. Air stroke pumps may be suitable for waste water treatment, archaeological research and aquaculture where low discharge pressures are required. A separate air tube is inserted into this EDUctor pipe for a short distance from its lower end. The air is then inserted into the water column in the EDUctor pipe for pressure exceeding the pressure on the pressing of the pipe water. Gravity then causes the body of air bubbles to increase in the EDUctor pipe due to lower air density. This column VZThe ghost bubbles carry the surrounding water with it inertia and force the water above it to move up.

When the water moves up, it creates an emptiness that draws water from the well to Eductor pipes to take its place. This creates a constant movement of water up in a pipe that represents the pump mechanism of the air lifting pump. The volume of the pumping process can be controlled by the control of the pressure of the inserted airflow, which also affects the "head" that the pump is capable of producing. The pump head refers to a vertical distance that the pump is capable of moving water above the water level.

deep, sandy wells benefit from the use of an air lift pump, when sand suspended in Water quickly discusses the moving parts of the mechanical pump. The air lift pumps have no moving parts; As a result of relatively slow water flow, the interior of the EDUctor pipes also suffers at leastling over abrasion. The operation of the air lifting pump is also beneficial in cases where the porridge or fluid is drawn. This is especially true of applications, such as archaeological research places where the submerged mash content would be damaged by a mechanical pump.

The

discharge pumps of transmission pumps range from approximately 20 to 2,000 gallons (75 to 7,600 liters) per minute and can reach 750 feet (229 meters) heads. The Airlift pump is not suitable for applications that require high -pressure or high suction characteristics. The input end of the EDUctor pipe should ideally be covered with a sieve, as the intrusion of large objects causes pipe clogging due to low -pressure system characteristics.
