Introduction to Liquid Ring Vacuum Pumps
Liquid ring vacuum pumps are mechanical devices used to create a vacuum by using a rotating impeller within a cylindrical housing. These pumps utilize a liquid, usually water, to form a sealing ring around the impeller blades, which helps to compress and evacuate gas from the system. Known for their reliability and low maintenance, liquid ring vacuum pumps are widely used in various industrial applications, including chemical processing, power generation, and wastewater treatment, where they efficiently handle gases and vapors without contamination.
