Liquid jet vacuum pumps
Liquid jet vacuum pumps
of porcelain
Applications
Example
0.6 kg/h of air has to be continuously
exhausted out of a plant. The suction pressure amounts to 100 mbar abs. A motive
liquid pressure of 5 bar g is available. The
motive water has a temperature of 20 °C.
Parameters to be found : Size of pump and
motive water consumption.
Solution : From diagram fig. 11, for a suction
pressure of 100 mbar and a motive water
pressure of 5 bar g, pump size 3 with a mass
suction flow of 0.67 kg/h is closest to the
required suction volume.
From diagram fig. 12, for a motive water
pressure of 5 bar g and a suction pressure
of 100 mbar a motive water consumption of
5.5 m³/h for the chosen size 3 can be found.

Diagram fig. 11 gives the mass suction flow
in kg/h of air in relation to the suction pressure at various operating water pressures for
4 pump sizes. The curves are based on an
operating water temperature of 20 °C.
The motive liquid consumption or the
motive liquid flow (circulating water operation) can be taken from diagram fig. 12.

Liquid jet vacuum pumps of porcelain are
used in laboratories and in pilot and production plants. They are used for evacuating syphon lines on acid plants, for producing vacuum, for deaerating apparatus in
which solvent vapours are produced and for
producing negative pressures in Nutsch filters, etc.
Jet pumps of porcelain are encased in a protective armour of cast iron. These pumps are,
therefore, well protected against mechanical and chemical aggression. They are reliable and maintenance-free; the capital cost
is low.

Evacuation time
Diagram fig. 13 gives the time in minutes a
liquid jet vacuum pump size 3 needs to evacuate a vessel volume of 1 m³ to a defined
suction pressure.
The selection of other sizes is achieved by
the following conversion formula:
a liquid jet vacuum pump size 3 requires
2 x 12 = 24 minutes. However, as only 15
minutes are available the above formula is
used to calculate the factor for the larger
size of pump required:
According to the table factor 2 corresponding to pump size 4 is closest to the calculated value. Pump size 4 is therefore selected.
The motive liquid consumption is influenced
by the suction pressure p 0 . This is established by means of the curves in fig. 12.

Example
A vessel of 2 m³ is to be evacuated to 400
mbar in 15 minutes. The water pressure is
3 bar.
Parameters to be found: Size of the pump
Solution: From diagram fig. 13, for 400 mbar
and 3 bar, a time of 12 min/m³ is found. For
