Three-screw pump is a positive displacement rotary pump that transports liquids through three intermeshing screws rotating within the pump casing. Its main structure consists of a driving screw (the active screw) and two driven screws (driven by the active screw). The three screws intermesh within the pump body, forming a sealed cavity. Liquid is continuously pushed through these sealed cavities, smoothly conveying it from the suction port to the discharge port.
When the screw pump is working, the active screw rotates in a certain direction, and the driven screw also rotates accordingly. The cavity formed by the tooth cavity at the suction point changes from small to large, absorbing liquid. When the cavity body increases to the maximum value, it is closed by the engaged teeth and tooth cavities. The oil in the closed cavity moves along the axial discharge end. The volume of the cavity at the discharge port gradually decreases to discharge the liquid.
Working principle
- The driving screw is driven by a motor or other power source.
- The driving screw drives the two driven screws to rotate synchronously, forming several closed chambers between the three screws and between them and the Three Screw Pump casing.
- The liquid is enclosed in these chambers and smoothly transported along the screw axis from one end to the other.
- The entire process is virtually pulsation-free and provides a stable flow rate.
Scope of application
- Used as fuel, fuel supply, and transfer pumps in heating equipment.
- Used as hydraulic, lubrication, and remote motor pumps in the machinery industry.
- Used as loading, transfer, and liquid supply pumps in the chemical, petrochemical, and food industries.
- Used as transfer, boosting, fuel injection, and lubrication pumps on ships, as well as marine hydraulic system pumps.
- Lubricating oil delivery (lubrication systems for engines, compressors, turbines, etc.)
- Hydraulic transmission (hydraulic oil delivery)
- Fuel delivery (ships, boiler fuel systems)
- High-viscosity media (asphalt, resins, polymers, etc.)
- Industrial equipment circulation (coolants, sealing fluids, lubricants, etc.)
Three screw pump characteristics
- Smooth flow, minimal pressure pulsation, low noise, and long service life.
- Strong self-priming capability eliminates the need for a foot valve or vacuum equipment, ensuring reliable operation.
- Compact structure, small size, and light weight allow for high speeds, allowing for direct operation by an electric motor or other prime mover.
- The pump delivers a foam-free and vortex-free medium, capable of conveying high-viscosity and high-temperature media.
- Components utilize a highly versatile, serially designed design with multiple mounting options.
