What is packing in centrifugal pump?
Time: 2023-08-14 Source: Author: hlsolidscontrol
Packing in a centrifugal pump refers to the sealing arrangement used to prevent leakage of fluid along the shaft of the pump where it exits the pump casing. Centrifugal pumps are commonly used to move fluids, and they consist of an impeller that rotates within a casing to create a flow of fluid. The impeller is connected to a shaft that passes through the pump casing.
Since the pump shaft needs to rotate to drive the impeller, there is a potential for fluid to leak along the shaft and escape the pump casing. This leakage can lead to efficiency losses, safety concerns, and environmental issues. To address this, a sealing mechanism is required to prevent or minimize leakage.
Packing is one type of sealing arrangement used in centrifugal pump. It involves wrapping a series of rings, usually made of materials like braided fibers or synthetic materials, around the pump shaft within a housing called a stuffing box. The packing rings are compressed against the shaft by tightening a gland or follower, creating a seal. This helps to restrict the flow of fluid along the shaft, reducing or preventing leakage.
