What is Centrifugal pump academy: The risks of parallel operation about?

The risks of parallel operation ## The successful running of centrifw gal pumps in parallel means mow itoring the flow individually, and having the facility for individual unit shutdown at a preset low flow point. In the first article of a new series, Stan Shiels explains why, and illustrates how to avoid the danger of premature or frequent pump fai~ ures in this configuration. There are three prime areas of concern when operating centrifugal pumps in parallel: • Hydraulic shut-off of one of the pumps. • High flow induced cavitation in one of the pumps. • Prolonged operation of one of the pumps at a flow below its minimum acceptable continuous flow.
