Selecting a pump for fuel pumping

Selecting a pump for fuel pumping

The choice of the fuel pump

These pumps should be selected depending on various physical parameters and environmental parameters for effective and effective work in the required use.

Power – the energy necessary for the operation of the pump. You must choose a pump with a suitable power that provides uninterrupted and uninterrupted operation for the required use. And power is measured in horsepower (HP).

Consumption – the speed at which the fuel is transmitted. You must know and take into account the flow rate depending on the amount of fuel, which will be transmitted at a certain time. The use of these pumps in the fuel injection system requires accurate fuel consumption. The flow rate is expressed in units of volume per unit of time. Measured in gallons per minute (GPM).

Working hours – you must decide whether the pump is a pumping pump in a stationary or mobile. Mobile fuel pumps are small in size and they can be electric or diesel. Mobile pumps are used to pump fuel from tanks to different places.

Power source – you must choose the power source of the pump, such as electric, pneumatic, with power from direct current, etc. D. Fuel mobile pumps are powered in a voltage range of 110 V or 220 V. Power pumps from direct current are provided in the voltage range of 12 V, 24 V, or 48 V.

The required pressure – in car engines, fuel pressure plays a vital role in the engine operation. You must choose the correct pump to increase fuel pressure to the required level for effective work.

External factors – you must take into account external factors, such as the length of the power cord, the supply line, material, etc. D. In some cases, the storage tank is located at a distance from the pump, and the fuel is pumped through a long pipeline.

Environmental conditions – you must take into account environmental conditions, such as temperature, location and operating conditions of the pump. The pump should be covered with suitable protection if it is influenced by engine heat. In snowmobiles, the fuel tank is kept at a distance from the engine.
