Pumping equipment is necessary for drilling wells, to almost any depth. It provides a supply of ordinary water or a special liquid to wash out the destroyed soil. Industrial NB 32 mud pumps are considered the best , because, despite the simplicity of the design, they provide an uninterrupted supply of fluid to the drill head. They cool themselves qualitatively and prevent overheating of drilling equipment.
Main purposes of a drilling pump
There are many types of drilling equipment that do not use additional fluid supply to the place of destruction of the earth's crust or soil. But, for more efficient, non-stop drilling, water supply provides a lot of advantages. Special pumping equipment as part of other mechanisms gives the following advantages in practice:
- The bit is cooled in time in the process of rock destruction.
- The shaft is constantly cleared of rock, sludge and sand.
- Shattered earth's crust will never block a drill in a mine.
- Forced injection of water to a considerable depth into the well.
- Even flow of liquid in the required amount.
The principle of operation of the pump is quite simple. It independently takes water from the reservoir, creates excess pressure with the help of pistons and directs the liquid through the pipe line directly to the bit. Since the pistons work to supply and withdraw water in both directions, the efficiency of the equipment has the highest possible efficiency.
Purpose and internal structure
The main function of the pump to supply liquid to the mine shaft is to prevent the rock from blocking the shaft, thereby damaging expensive equipment. Water or solution must be supplied in the required amount uninterruptedly. This process became possible only thanks to the well-thought-out design of pumping equipment:
- hydraulic block with valve mechanism;
- at least two cylinders and pistons;
- additional forced cooling unit;
- pneumatic air compressor;
- reducer that distributes torque.
It is very important that the pump is made of parts that resist the increased wear and tear in adverse operating conditions. Abrasive particles constantly get inside the pump, which can damage the cylinders, pistons and valve mechanism. In addition, the quality of lubrication and the tightness of moving parts affect the duration of work.
