Water Ring Vacuum Pump Solutions to Leakage

Water ring vacuum pump leaks for different reasons, its treatment methods will also be different, not to identify a cause of leakage, under different circumstances, the leakage should be solved in accordance with the appropriate method, then we may have five reasons for leakage for you to briefly introduce its treatment methods.

1. Leakage of machine in operation

If a machine is found to be leaking, it must not stop its work immediately. It should be kept at the lowest stable speed, and water should be added to the inner side of the cooling system at the same time. (Note: when opening the nozzle cover, a cover should be placed above it to prevent steam from burning), so that the engine can cool down, run at a short time and at a slow speed, and drive to the nearby concealed place for removal.

2. Water leakage due to breakdown of vacuum pump shell

If the vacuum pump shell breaks suddenly and leaks water, or the internal parts are damaged and lose the pump function, the relevant parts can be replaced as appropriate to eliminate the failure.

3. The water ring vacuum pump itself is seriously damaged.

If the pump is badly damaged and there is no repair condition on the way, the inlet and outlet pipes of the stainless steel vacuum pump can be directly connected to make full use of the natural circulation of hot and cold water to temporarily keep the engine at normal temperature; or an inner tube or bucket can be used as a container to firmly fix it, and then two rubber pipes are introduced from the container, one of which is connected to the engine's water inflow. On the mouth, the other one is connected to the outlet of the engine. The other end of the two pipes is inserted into the container, and the rubber pipe should be fixed firmly.

4. Leakage due to cracks only in pump housing

If only the shell of the water ring vacuum pump cracks and leaks, the cracks can be cleaned up and then bonded with adhesives. In order to meet the emergency, egg white and cement can be mixed into a sticky mass and applied to the cracks, which can be used after several minutes of solidification.

If the water seal of the water ring vacuum pump leaks slightly due to improper sealing, but the wear is not serious, a sand cloth can be laid on the glass plate or flat plate, and the sealing surface of the water seal can be grinded flat, or the water seal of bakelite can be turned over and used again. However, it should be noted that the contact surface between the water seal and the pump body should be ground to ensure its sealing performance.
