• Understanding the Low NPSH Properties of MTH Pumps Regenerative Turbine Pumps

    The concept of Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH) is crucial for preventing pump cavitation, which can severely damage components. MTH Pumps’ regenerative turbine pumps have very low NPSH requirements, offering significant benefits such as reduced cavitation risk, enhanced operational flexibility, and improved suction performance, making them ideal for various industries like chemical processing and HVAC…

  • Free Floating Balanced Impellers of Regenerative Turbine Pumps

    MTH Pumps innovatively uses a free-floating impeller design in their regenerative turbine pumps, improving durability, efficiency, and reducing maintenance costs. This design allows the impeller to self-adjust to pressure and temperature changes, minimizing axial thrust and mechanical stress. MTH, since 1965, specializes in high-pressure, low-flow pumps, ensuring quality and reliability in every product.

  • The Smooth, Pulsation-Free Flow of Regenerative Turbine Pumps

    Choosing the right pump impacts fluid flow. Positive displacement pumps, like piston and diaphragm pumps, produce high pressure but cause pulsations. Regenerative turbine pumps offer smooth, continuous flow without pulsations due to their helical design, which improves performance, reduces wear, and lowers maintenance costs. Next week, we’ll discuss Free Floating Balanced Impellers.

  • The Simple Construction & Low Maintenance of Regenerative Turbine Pumps

    MTH Pumps prides itself on efficiency and reliability, highlighting its regenerative turbine pumps with streamlined, low-maintenance designs. Their close-coupled models have fewer components, enhancing ease of installation, operational efficiency, and durability. These pumps minimize downtime, reduce costs, and align with sustainability goals, offering customized solutions for various industries.

  • Jockey Pump Selection for Fire Suppression Systems

    Automatic fire suppression systems normally utilize two pumps. One unit is the main fire pump which delivers large volumes of water to the fire suppression system (sprinklers) in case of fire. When there is no fire, a low flow, high head “Jockey Pump” is used to overcome the normal system plumbing leakage that bleeds down…

  • DAF for Wastewater Service

    Due to our capability to handle 20%+ entrained vapor, the regenerative turbines can be used in Dissolved Air Flotation or “DAF” applications. Air is injected or drawn into the pump inlet along with the process fluid (usually water). The turbine impeller is extremely adept at breaking the air up into very small bubbles that when…

  • Heat Exchangers & Medical Imaging

    A very popular application for regenerative turbine pumps is in what is commonly called the “Temperature Control Equipment” market. This equipment is used to control the temperature of another primary process or chamber depending on the end application. Generally, the temperature controllers that are used to heat above ambient, are called “heat exchangers”, while those…

  • Fuel Cells & Regenerative Turbine Pumps

    Fuel cells utilize an electrochemical process to convert the chemical energy in natural gas or pure hydrogen to electricity and heat. The process is non-polluting, low maintenance, and very quiet in operation. Large capacity fuel cells are now available to provide “clean” uninterrupted AC power for such critical installations as hospitals, computers, or for areas…
