Drilling Mud System Anticorrosion Solids Control Centrifugal Pump

APSB Series centrifugal pump is used for transferring slurry, mud or water in drilling mud system

Principle of APSB Series Centrifugal Pump

APSB Series centrifugal pumps are used  to transport fluids by the conversion of rotational kinetic energy to the hydrodynamic energy of the fluid flow. The rotational energy typically comes from an engine or electric motor.The fluid will rotate alongside impeller under the centrifugal force the fluid will be pushed to surroundings from impeller center meanwhile fluid get energy. The fluid around impeller surrounding hydrostatic pressure will increase and the velocity will be larger. Fluid flow from impeller to pump case the velocity will slow down since channel is larger. Some kinetic energy will transfer to static pressure energy. Then high-pressured fluid will flow from centrifugal pump output into discharge pipe. The fluid will be transferred to specific pipelines.

Functions of APSB Series Centrifugal Pump

APSB series centrifugal pump's effect is for transferring drilling fluid or industrial suspension slurry. It can pump viscous and corrosive liquids by use of modern design theory. Compared with the general pump, APSB series pump is with excellent performance, high traffic, high temperature, long service life, also easy maintenance, high reliability and remarkable energy saving advantages. Furthermore, now it is widely used around the world on  onshore and offshore drilling field. We will provide customers with the best pumps to meet different conditions and requirements.

Features Of APSB Series Centrifugal Pump

• Dual grade seal
  The pump seals including the mechanical seal and packing seal as dual grade seal. This enhances seal realiability
• Opening impeller
  The pump impeller is opening type it is more suitable for transferring drilling mud with high density, high viscosity fluids
• High efficient
  The impeller design conforms to flowing force demand. Pump performance id much higher
• Longer service life
  Important parts are mada of anti-abbrasive material ensure long usable life
• Wide range pump types
  Pump case and impeller type available meet different client's demand
• External impeller structure
• Such design will provide user more convenience on adjusting distance between impeller and mechanical seal

What Centrifugal Pump Work For?

Trip Pump: Trip pump will sit at trip tank to transfer mud from trip tank into drill hole directly in special conditions. The pump normal driven by 11 or 15kw electrical motor with a 4×3 size pump. The mud flow 200 to 250GPM is enough.

Desander & desilter feeding pump: It is normally 8×6 size pump driven by 55kw motor for 1000GPM mud flow for oil and gas drilling, but 6×5 or 5×4 size pump with smaller electrical motor will be used for smaller mud flow capacity for oil & gas drilling, coal bed methan drilling, horizontal directional drilling or water well drilling.

Water pump: The water pump will set on water tank with water line supply to solids control mud tank. A diesel pump may work as standby incase of fire.

Mixing Pump: The mixing pump normally 8×6 size driven by 55kw electrical motor to supply mud to mixing hopper for new mud mixing application.

Charge Pump: 1 or 2 set charge pump will sit beside mud pump for charging application.

Centrifugal pump is well used in drilling mud process system because it’s high efficiency, easy maintenance and cost effective. AIPU Solids build a complete line for drilling mud process system as well as all sizes centrifugal pump. Please contact us freely for inquiry or technical support.
