Anglo Platinum, 2006. — 85 p. Взрывы центробежных насосов
At AngloGold Metallurgical operation in South Africa, we were experiencing on average one
pump explosion per annum. In all cases, the explosions occurred in singlestage centrifugal process type pumps where the suction and delivery valves were either closed or the lines were blocked.
Research revealed that this is a world-wide phenomenon. It was decided to investigate to determine the causes and try eliminate or at best reduce, the risk of further occurrence.
