The role of adding soft connection to pipeline shielded pump
The role of adding soft connections to pipeline shielded pumps is mainly reflected in the following aspects:
1. Reduce vibration and noise
Shock absorption and buffering: The shielded pump will generate certain vibrations during operation. If these vibrations are directly transmitted to the pipeline system, they may damage the pipeline and its ancillary equipment, and also increase noise pollution. The soft connection can effectively absorb the energy generated by the vibration of the pump body through its good elastic properties, reduce the transmission of vibration to the pipeline system, thereby protecting the pipeline from damage and reducing noise pollution.
Special structural considerations: Due to the special structure of the shielded pump, the internal vibration and noise can easily damage the pipeline equipment and also easily cause pipeline leakage. Therefore, adding soft connections has become a necessary protective measure.
2. Avoid pipeline leakage
Sealing performance: Soft connections are usually made of high-quality rubber and other materials and have good sealing performance. Its inner and outer rubber layers are closely matched with the metal flange to form a reliable sealing structure, effectively prevent medium leakage, and ensure the safe operation of the pipeline system.
Displacement compensation: During the installation or operation of the pipeline, various factors (such as foundation settlement, temperature changes, etc.) may cause the pipeline to move. Through its flexible design, the soft connection allows the pipeline to move axially, laterally and angularly within a certain range, ensuring the continuity and integrity of the pipeline system, thereby avoiding pipeline leakage caused by displacement.
3. Improve system stability
Strong adaptability: The selection of soft connections can be based on the specific conditions of the pipeline and the use environment, such as the material of the pipeline, the displacement of the shielded pump, etc. This flexibility enables the soft connection to better adapt to different working conditions and improve the stability and reliability of the entire pipeline system.
Protective equipment: In addition to protecting the pipeline system, the soft connection can also play a certain protective role on the shielded pump itself. By reducing the impact of vibration and noise on the pump body, the service life of the pump is extended and the maintenance cost is reduced.
These functions of the pipeline shielded pump equipped with soft connections jointly ensure the safe, stable and efficient operation of the pipeline system.
