Horizontal Solids Control Centrifugal Pump Explosion Proof Motor

A Centrifugal pump is a significant piece of equipment that is used for transferring fluids. It works by converting the energy i.e. kinetic energy to Hydrodynamic energy.

It allows the fluid to move freely while transferring. It is a mechanical device that is used in fulfilling tasks related to mechanics.

Reliable  solids control centrifugal pump for well drilling mud solids control system

Drilling fluid process Centrifugal pump is used to transport fluid by conversion of rotational kinetic energy to the hydraulic energy of the fluids flow. The rotational energy typically comes from an engine or electric motor. Aipu supply pumps driven by 10HP to 100HP, which are popular in drilling mud process. Pumps sizes are 3x2, 4x3, 5x4, 6x5, 8x6. They will perform differently under different power, voltage, or frequency.

No matter for oil and gas drilling, or Water drilling, CBM, or piling, and so on. The solids control system needs a pump to be power or energy supply of fluid circulation or mud recycling. From the shaker compartment, we use a pump to transfer drilling mud to desander or mud cleaner. From the mixing tank we need a mixing hopper pump to blend or compound new drilling fluid

Centrifugal pump definition and general information

Oilfield Centrifugal Pump Widely Used In Drilling Fluid Solids Control. Centrifugal pump is also referred to as sand pump in China. Centrifugal pumps are widely used in oilfield drilling equipment and mud equipment like shale shakers, desanders desilters, etc.

Common centrifugal pump applications include water, sewage, petroleum, and petrochemical pumping. The reverse function of the centrifugal pump is a fluid turbine converting the potential energy of water pressure into mechanical rotational energy.

Centrifugal pumps are a sub-class of dynamic axisymmetric work-absorbing turbomachinery. Centrifugal pumps are used to transport fluids by the conversion of rotational kinetic energy to the hydrodynamic energy of the fluid flow. The rotational energy typically comes from an engine or electric motor. The fluid enters the pump impeller along or near to the rotating axis and is accelerated by the impeller, flowing radially outward into a diffuser or volute chamber (casing), from where it exits
 

How solids control centrifugal pump works

Applying classical mechanics theory, assuming viscosity of the liquid equal 0 and no energy loss for the work of energy transferring from the impeller to the streamlines which means that, all separate flow will be uniforms (this approximation of physical reality to get the simpler as solid-state mechanism than a hydraulic mechanism

General explanation: Like most pumps, centrifugal pumps convert rotational energy, often from a motor, to energy in a moving fluid. A portion of the energy goes into the kinetic energy of the fluid. Fluid enters axially through the eye of the casing, is caught up in the impeller blades, and is whirled tangentially and radially outward until it leaves through all circumferential parts of the impeller into the diffuser part of the casing. The fluid gains both velocity and pressure while passing through the impeller. The doughnut-shaped diffuser, or scroll, a section of the casing decelerates the flow and further increases the pressure

In the drilling fluid solids control system, centrifugal pumps are used as a transfer pumps. Mainly pump drilling fluid to desander hydrocyclone, desilter hydrocyclone. They also are combined together with mud hopper to be jet mud mixer or mud mixing pump. Pumps work as a power transition tool.

Solids control centrifugal pump types 

Drilling fluid solids control requests many centrifugal pumps to be fit on mud tanks. According to function, we call centrifugal pumps as sand pumps, submersible slurry pumps, shear pumps, charging pumps, etc. They are defined for their different functions, but their working principle is the same

Usually, in drilling fluid solids control there are horizontal centrifugal pumps and vertical centrifugal pumps. The difference is motor installation direction and pump feed inlet position.

To select either of the installation ways we need to consider the actual operation condition and general space. Presently, except installation way, there are different types of pumps on the seal. Mechanically sealed pumps is more popular since the stable performance and reliable quality
We may face many different problems during pump operation. Please contact us for further information or support. We Aipu solids control will do come to you with optimal solutions

Application of solids control centrifugal pump 

Drilling mud solids control Centrifugal pumps used in well drilling fluids systems are mechanical seal pumps. Aipu produces high-quality centrifugal pumps. Centrifugal pump is also called sand pump, as the drilling fluid to be processed contains large quantity drilled solid or cuttings.

Trip Pump: The trip pump will sit at the trip tank to transfer mud from the trip tank into the drill hole directly in special conditions. The pump is normally driven by an 11 or 15kw electrical motor with a 4×3 size pump. The mudflow of 200 to 250GPM is enough.

Desander & desilter feeding pump: It is normally an 8×6 size pump driven by 55kw motor for 1000GPM mudflow for oil and gas drilling, but 6×5 or 5×4 size pump with the smaller electrical motor will be used for smaller mudflow capacity for oil & gas drilling, coal bed methane drilling, horizontal directional drilling or water well drilling.

Water pump: The water pump will be set on a water tank with a water line supply to control the mud tank solids. A diesel pump may work as a standby in case of fire.

Mixing Pump: The mixing pump is normally 8×6 size driven by a 55kw electrical motor to supply mud to mixing hopper for new mud mixing application.

Charge Pump: 1 or 2 set charge pumps will sit beside the mud pump for charging application.
