Faqs

What are low viscosity pumps?

These pumps handle fluids with viscosities close to water, often used for fuels, solvents, and other thin liquids which can be troublesome for some designs of pumps leading to loss of flow and recirculation within pump heads.

Why choose North Ridge Pumps?

North Ridge offers a range of solutions tailored to the specific needs of low viscosity fluid applications, ensuring reliable performance and efficiency. With over 100 application examples on our site, we know how to get it right.

Low Viscosity Pumps for Efficient Fluid Transfer

Low viscosity pumps are designed to handle liquids with viscosities close to water, typically around 1 centipoise (cp). These types of fluids, such as fuels, require specialized pumps to prevent common issues like slip, where part of the fluid recirculates within the pump head back toward the inlet. This can reduce efficiency and lead to increased wear on the pump if internal components are not properly specified for the low-viscosity fluid.

Positive displacement pumps, which typically work best with more viscous fluids, can struggle to maintain the required pressures and flow rates when handling low-viscosity liquids. As a result, selecting the right pump designed for low viscosity is crucial to prevent premature pump failure and ensure smooth, efficient fluid transfer in industries such as oil and gas, pharmaceuticals, and chemical processing.
