Hi Artisi, thank you for sharing. My first thought was also for priming, but the pipe size maintains the same for the whole suction line which made me a bit confused. Will try to talk with the operators and see how effective this is.
Hi,
I went for a site visit to an existing plant, and saw that there is this U-bend piping before the suction of a centrifugal pump for a sump pit. My question is, is this bending required and what is it for? Thank you.
