The lower the pump head, the higher the flow rate. A vendor manual for a specific pump usually contains a curve of pump flow rate versus pump head called a pump characteristic curve.<br \/>\nAfter a pump is installed in a<a title=\"GN-solids-control\" href=\"http:\/\/ www.gnsolidscontrol.com\/fluids-processing-system\/\"> solids control system<\/a>, it is usually tested to ensure that the flow rate and head of the pump are within the required specifications. A typical centrifugal pump characteristic curve is shown below.<br \/>\nShutoff head is the maximum head that can be developed by a centrifugal pump operating at a set speed.<br \/>\nPump runout is the maximum flow that can be developed by a centrifugal pump without damaging the pump.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/oilfield.gnsolidscontrol.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/pump_curve.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-1039\" title=\"pump_curve\" src=\"http:\/\/oilfield.gnsolidscontrol.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/04\/pump_curve-300x147.jpg\" alt=\"pump_curve\" width=\"300\" height=\"147\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gnsolidscontrol.com\/drilling-fluids\/centrifugal-pumps-mud-agitator-egypt\">Centifugal pumps and mud agitators to Egypt<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Permanent Link to Centrifugal pumps butterfly  valves for mud system\" href=\"..\/centrifugal-pumps-butterflyvalves-for-mud-system\/\"><strong>Centrifugal pumps butterfly valves for mud system<\/strong><\/a><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Permanent Link to Oilfield Centrifugal Pump for  drilling\" href=\"..\/oilfield-centrifugal-pump-for-drilling\/\"><strong>Oilfield Centrifugal Pump for drilling<\/strong><\/a><strong> <\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Centrifugal pumps are also called sand pumps, used widely in oil and gas drilling, to pump the drilling fluids to keep the mud recycling system or solids control equipments work well.
