The present disclosure relates to a flow turning system for imparting a rotational, swirling motion to a fluid flowing through the flow turning system. The system may comprise a housing and a flow turning element supported within the housing. The flow turning element may have a plurality of circumferentially spaced vanes projecting into a flow path of the fluid as the fluid flows through the flow turning system. The vanes impart a swirling, circumferential flow to the fluid to help prevent contaminants in the fluid from adhering to downstream components in communication with the flow turning system.

A pump assembly with at least one liquid space (32) in an interior. The liquid space (32) contains a liquid or is configured for receiving a liquid. A sensor (34, 42) is arranged in the liquid space (32), which sensor is configured to detect at least one material property of the liquid located in the liquid space (32). A filter element (44) is arranged in the interior of the liquid space (32) such that the filter element (44) shields the sensor (34, 42) with respect to the surrounding liquid space (32), the filter element (44) being permeable to the liquid. A method for controlling a pump assembly is also provided.

A cutter assembly configured for a grinder pump and including a cutter wheel and a cutter disc that interact with each other. The cutter wheel includes a shaft portion that is configured to interact with a central hole of the cutter disc, a hub portion that is connected to the shaft portion and at least two main cutting edges that in the radial direction extend outwards from the hub portion and that are configured to interact with a set of cutting holes of the cutter disc. The shaft portion includes an axially extending cutting recess. The hub portion includes only one radially extending cutting recess. The cutter disc includes a suction side, a central hole that is configured to interact with the shaft portion of the cutter wheel and a set of cutting holes that open in the suction side radially outside the central hole.

A drain pump comprises a pump housing having a filtering cavity and an impeller cavity; a filter mounted in the pump housing and having a filter core; and a gap defined between the filter core and the pump housing to communicate the filtering cavity and the impeller cavity.

A centrifugal electric pump assembly, comprising a wet section, which comprises inside it a liquid and/or solid scale remover substance in a position that at least potentially communicates with the wet section.

A pump device includes a casing, an impeller, a base, and a motor. The casing includes a pump chamber, and an inlet and an outlet. The impeller is accommodated in the pump chamber. The motor is connected to the casing for driving the impeller to rotate and includes a rotor chamber for receiving a rotor. The base is disposed between the impeller and the motor and includes an accommodating groove having an inlet port in communication with the rotor chamber to allow fluid in the pump chamber to enter into the rotor chamber. In the pump device, precipitation has been performed to fluid in the accommodating groove before the fluid enters into the rotor chamber, thus the impurity particles can be prevented from entering into the rotor chamber, thereby prolonging the service life of the pump device.

A centrifugal pump to improve the efficiency of fluid flow, and minimize long term wear on the pump by progressively increasing fluid pressure as fluid moves from an eye of an impeller towards diffuser blades, into the volute and out through an outlet. The fluid pressure is increased by progressively increasing the volume through which the fluid travels. A tear-drop shaped volute casing surrounding the diffuser and impeller creates a pocket of maximum pressure just below the outlet. A dampener can be provided to dampen the vibration of the motor. A cylindrical basket strainer can be provided with a flat face abutting against the volute casing to distribute pressure evenly. A clamp ring can be provided to easily seal and access the basket strainer using a plain rod.

A water pump has a check valve with a valve body movable in a direction of a valve axis of the check valve between an open position of the check valve and a closed position of the check valve. An actuating device is connected with the check valve and has an operating element that is movable coaxially to the valve axis. The operating element is operatively connected to the valve body and arranged such that the operating element, by applying a coaxial force to the valve body, transfers the valve body into a venting position of the check valve.

Techniques are provided for seal flush systems. A system may include a reactor circulation pump configured to circulate a slurry through a polymerization reactor. The slurry may include an olefin monomer, a catalyst, and a diluent. The system may also include a catalyst-inhibiting additive system configured to supply a catalyst-inhibiting additive to a seal of the reactor circulation pump and a seal flush system configured to generate a seal flush mixture and supply the seal flush mixture to the seal of the reactor circulation pump.

A device for sucking up liquid on a floor includes an outside wall defining a first enclosure that is open at least via openings for passing a liquid to the inside of the first enclosure and a pipe in fluid flow connection with a liquid suction pump said first enclosure. The device includes an inside wall defining a second enclosure, the second enclosure being open at least via openings formed through the inside wall so as to allow liquid to pass from the first enclosure into the second enclosure, the pipe opening out into the inside of the second enclosure.
