Centrifugal Pump System Components and Design

SKU: RVCT-1128

Duration: 0.50 Hrs

The purpose of a pump is to increase the pressure of a liquid and transfer it from one location to another. Although a pump is essential to this goal, it is only one element of a larger system that is required to accomplish liquid transfer. This course will cover some of the mechanical components such as drivers and couplings that support pump operation. It will also cover how the design of a piping system around a pump will affect pump selection and performance.
