PD vs centrifugal pumps- Maximum viscosity range
PD vs centrifugal pumps- Maximum viscosity range
(OP)
Maximum viscosity ranges are a major consideration in pump selection because of possible deterioration in performance wiht increasing viscosity.
In general terms, which are the limits in viscosity range for using a pd or a centrifugal pump?
I would like to find a CHART or TABLE which shows pump classification acording the viscosity range.ç
Thanks a lot in advance

By any chance... do you know a good web for viscosity conversion (ssu, cts, cp, mm2/sec ...)on line?
And in general, for engineering units conversion? In the past you gave a good one,but i cannot find it!

The best online unit converter is offline now. I think we burned their servers up.
Actually the best thing to do is to get a copy of Katmar's Uconeer and put the icon on your desktop. Its simply the most brilliant engineering unit converter you'll find anywhere online or off .... and its free!
