Pump Cavitation
The Mc Nally Institute

<<Cavitation means that cavities are forming in the liquid that we are
pumping. When these cavities form at the suction of the pump several things happen all at once. The cavities form for four basic reasons and it is common practice to lump all of them into the general classification of cavitation. This is an error because we will learn that to correct each of these conditions we must understand why they occur and how to fix them.>>

Pipeline Strainer Installation Considerations Hayward Industrial Products, Inc.

<<Strainers are bolted, screwed, or welded into pipelines like valves. In
fact, because of the similarity in materials of construction, pressure ratings, etc., a strainer is installed in the same way as many valves. There are two fundamental types of pipeline strainers- Basket and Y-Type. Generally, Y-strainers are used with gases and in cases where the necessity for cleaning is infrequent. Basket strainers are generally used with liquids and where regular or frequent cleaning is needed. Basket strainers hold considerably more material than Y-strainers and they offer less pressure drop than Y-strainers - both factors of more importance in liquid flow than in gaseous flow.>> Received on Sun Jul 16 23:59:00 2000
