Bearing housing Volute casing Clearance gap Rolling element bearing Discharge nozzle
The pump is designed with a tangential fluid inlet and a tangential fluid outlet. The hydraulic system runs in its own bearings and is connected to the motor by a shaft coupling. The fluid enters the pump tangentially via a suction nozzle (1) and is accelerated outward in a cylindrical flow by the rotating impeller (5). The flow profile of the pump casing converts the kinetic energy of the fluid into pressure energy. The fluid is pumped to the discharge nozzle (10), where it leaves the pump. The clearance gap (6) prevents any fluid from flowing back from the casing into the inlet. The shaft (7) enters the hydraulic system through the volute casing (4). The shaft passage through the seal housing is sealed towards the atmosphere with a shaft seal (9). The shaft runs in rolling element bearings (3 and 8), which are supported by a bearing housing (2) and linked with the volute casing (4). The pump is sealed by a shaft seal.

8.1 Explanation of faults The example illustrated in the diagram serves to facilitate understanding of the causes of faults/malfunctions and their remedies described in the Trouble-shooting section. Many operating faults/malfunctions on pumps are caused by hydraulic phenomena. The hydraulic behaviour of a pump is illustrated by its characteristic curves H, P, Eta and NPSH in combination with the system characteristic curves HA and NPSHA. The duty point B is given by the intersection between the system curve HA and the pump's characteristic curve H. If the cause of a fault or malfunction is unclear, consult your nearest KSB service centre. 11)
Pump pressure must be released before attempting to remedy faults on parts which are subjected to pressure.
