What causes excessive vibration in the desulfurization pump body and inlet/outlet piping during operation? How can this be resolved? Today, CNSME PUMP will provide the answers!

Generally speaking, vibration in
desulfurization pumps can be attributed to the following causes:
1.
Installation-related causes: Vibration caused by improper installation of the foundation, misalignment of the pump centerline, or improper installation of the outlet piping;
2.
Equipment-related causes: Vibration caused by factors such as impeller corrosion or erosion, or bearing damage;
3.
Cavitation: Vibration caused by the low-level installation of the oxidation air supply, resulting in the circulation pump drawing in slurry containing a large number of air bubbles;
4.
Other causes: Issues such as excessively high density in the absorption tower, scaling or blockage of the circulation pump inlet strainer, insufficient oxidation air volume, calcium sulfite scaling, debris blocking the absorption tower inlet strainer, or design defects in the piping system.
