SIHIPERFORMANCE AND RELIABILITYV acuumMore than 29 Hg Vacuum attainable with a Single pump VacuumAchievable by incorporating other Sterling SIHI SafetyProvided by the low temperature rise of the Liquid RingPrinciple ensuring the safest compression of hazardousand explosive Liquid HandlingLiquid slugs and condensables pass through the pump withoutdamage and only a momentary reduction in Economical LifeElimination of internal metallic contact minimizes maintenanceand

2 Increases life - only one moving part and no internallubrication Vibration & Noise LevelsAbsence of reciprocating parts assures quiet and low vibrationoperation - eliminating the need for special Starting TorquePermits considerable savings in electrical starting andcontrol FlexibilityModels available in a variety of shaft seals and materialsincluding Cast Iron, Bronze, Stainless Steels, Hastelloysand illustration is intended to depict theoperating principle of the Sterling SIHI liquid ring pump only and should notbe considered for engineering detailsof a round pump body (A), a shaft mounted impeller (B) is positioned at a point eccen-tric to the centerline of the pump body.

3 The centrifugal action of the rotating impellerforces the service liquid introduced via channel (D) towards the periphery of the pumpbody forming the liquid ring (C).When pumping action is achieved, the gas mixture being handled is introduced to theimpeller through the suction port (H), in the intermediate plate (E), causing a Vacuum atthe pump suction. The gas mixture fills the impeller cavity between the inside diameter ofthe liquid ring and the root of the impel-ler blade. As the impeller rotates,the impeller blade immersionin the liquid ring increasesreducing the volumebetween the liquidring and the rootof the impellerblade.

4 The re-sult is the com-pression of thegas mixtureuntil it reachesthe dischargeport (J), locatedin the intermediateplate (K). The gasmixture exits through thedischarge ACTING LIQUID RING PUMPSD uring the compression cycle heat isbeing imparted to the liquid ring. In or-der to maintain a temperature below thevapor point of the service liquid, coolingmust be applied. Cooling is achieved bycontinuously adding a cool supply ofservice liquid to the liquid ring. Theamount of service liquid added is equalto that discharged through the dischargeport (J) together with the compressedgas mixture.
