Magnetic Driven Pumps

Pumps that are powered by magnets are known as Magnetic Driven Pumps. Because the shaft of these pumps does not protrude from the pump casing, shaft sealing devices such as gland packing or mechanical seals are not required. An external magnet is installed on the driving shaft of magnetic-powered pumps.

It is responsible for conveying motion to a PFS Pump internal magnet that connects to the impeller (s). The impeller(s) turns, causing fluid to flow through the pump. A back case separates the two magnets, creating hermetic isolation of the liquid with no access to the outside world. A Magnetic Driven Pump, often known as a mag drive pump for short, has two magnets, one on the outside of the pump chamber and the other on the inside.

Their sturdy construction makes them perfect for handling extremely corrosive fluids, and they are commonly employed in the chemical sector. Instead of a pump shaft passing through the outside casing, Magnetic driven pumps have a hermetically sealed chamber and a seamless design, making them airtight and decreasing the possibility of fluid or vapour leakage.

This is especially helpful for enterprises pouring expensive chemical goods into the production environment that they can’t afford to risk spilling. There are also centrifugal, regenerative turbine, vane, and OEM magnetic driven pump types that combine the working principles of these pumps with the benefits of magnetic driven pumps.

Magnetic driven pumps are a type of magnetically driven chemical process pump that does not require shaft sealing. Because there are no mechanical seals, seal-fluid pots, or cooling lines, the pump’s original cost as well as day-to-day operating costs are considerably reduced.

A magnetic connection operates via the isolation shroud to link the motor and pump drives. This implies that no fluids or gases may escape in either a direct or indirect channel, posing a risk to operators and the environment. Because of its wide range of uses, this type of pump contributes to process engineering technical standardization.

Close-coupled and long-coupled (frame-mounted) magnetic driven pumps are also available. Magnetic driven pumps have been around for a long time and are perfect for use with clean liquids. Their apparent benefit in chemical applications is that they do away with the necessity for potentially costly mechanical seals. The link between the motor and the impeller is referred to as magnetic drive.

The impeller is powered by a shaft directly attached to the motor in typical sealed centrifugal pumps, and the location where the shaft enters into the pump housing incorporates a mechanical seal to keep the liquid contained within the pump. Magnetic driven pumps, on the other hand, use a set of magnets powered by the motor to drive magnets enclosed within the impeller. The impeller is encased in a shroud that contains a shaft and bearings that allow it to operate on a shaft.
