Guidelines for evaluation of liquid ring vacuum pump performance, Technical Information Paper TIP 0420-12 (2025)
This TIP, Technical Information Paper is provided to assist in evaluating performance of single stage, liquid ring vacuum pumps. Cone ported liquid ring vacuum pumps are a common source of paper machine vacuum in the pulp and paper industry. This paper is also applicable to other designs of single stage liquid ring vacuum pumps such as flat plate ported. Liquid ring vacuum pumps are typically equipped with two top suction flanges and two side or bottom discharge flanges. Often the suction flanges are manifolded together as are the discharge flanges.
