🔧 Cavitation in Pumps –‼️👇🏻
Cavitation happens when the pressure in the suction line drops below the vapor pressure of the liquid, forming bubbles. These bubbles collapse inside the pump, causing damage to the impeller, noise, and reduced efficiency.
⚠️ Avoid Cavitation By:
Maintaining proper suction pressure
Using correct pump speed and NPSH
Designing proper suction piping
