Mag-drive pumps are very different from typical sealed pumps. Therefore, it is natural for people to have concerns. I narrowed the list to 8 questions that are commonly asked with regard to mag-drive pumps. </p> 465 466 467 468<h4>1. Wonât Dry Running Cause Catastrophic Damage to Mag Drive Pumps? </h4> 469 470 471 472<p>When a magnetic drive pump experiences an upset condition, specifically when it is starved of product, it does not necessarily mean that the pump is completely devoid of liquid. Most of the time, liquid remains in the pump to aid bearing lubrication during brief upset episodes and to prevent the bearings from breaking during brief dry-run periods. Taking it a step further, upgrading standard silicon carbide (SiC) bearings to <a href="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/dry-run-resistant-bearings.php">enhanced SiC bearings with diamond-like coatings</a> vastly increases bearing strength and decreases the coefficient of friction to 1/4 of that of standard SiC bearings. </p> 473 474 475 476<h4> 2. Will Temperature Spikes Impact the Magnets of the Pump? </h4> 477 478 479 480<p>It is important to select proper magnet material relative to operating temperature considerations. Upset conditions can result in temperature excursions that impact the strength of the magnets, but a<a href="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/dry-run-pump-protection.php" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label=" (opens in a new tab)"> </a><a href="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/dry-run-pump-protection.php">power monitoring device</a> can minimize or eliminate this concern. When a mag-drive pump runs dry or against a closed discharge valve, the lower power drawn by the pump trips the monitor, shutting off the pump. </p> 481 482 483 484<h4> 3. What Happens When a Mag-Drive Pump Decouples? </h4> 485 486 487 488<p>If a mag-drive pump operates for a long time in a decoupled state, the magnets will be permanently demagnetized. However, the same <a href="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/dry-run-pump-protection.php">power monitoring device</a> that monitors the pump for temperature excursions also monitors for this condition as well. The design of mag-drive pumps do not make them particularly vulnerable to abnormal operating conditions. The power monitor addresses the concerns about increased capacity, specific gravity, and viscosity. Proper use of a power monitor eliminates many concerns. </p> 489 490 491 492<h4> 4. Is Radial Loading Common with Mag Drive Pumps? </h4> 493 494 495 496<p>A major advantage of some mag-drive 497pumps is reduced radial loading compared with standard, seal-type overhung 498models. The straddle-mounted design with bearings on either side of the inner 499magnet provides excellent stability, reduces radial loading, and enables the 500pump to be more tolerant of off peak-operation. </p> 501 502 503 504<h4> 5. What Does the Maintenance Schedule Look Like with a Mag-Drive Pump? </h4> 505 506 507 508<p>Mag-drive pump designs commonly offer an 8 to 10 year time 509table, sometimes more, without maintenance. One user discovered his mag-drive 510pump had operated 16 years without an outage. It did not fail at that point 511either â he took it down for preventative maintenance. Few sealed pumps in 512process applications operate so well. </p> 513 514 515 516<h4> 6. Are Mag-Drive Pump Repairs more Expensive Than Sealed Pump Repairs? </h4> 517 518 519 520<p>The Sealed versus Sealless discussion has been one of great debate for a long time. But In failures of major proportions, this has some potential to be true. However, I submit that the frequent repairs, including replacement of often expensive seals over the life of a traditional sealed pump, would be more than the total cost of a major mag-drive repair. It should be added that major mag-drive failures are not particularly commonplace if some of the noted precautions (upgraded SiC bearings, proper magnet material, power monitors, etc) are implemented. Mag-drive pumps are good, cost-effective options for providing years of trouble-free operation in many pump applications, potentially saving pump users tens of thousands of dollars over the life of the equipment. </p> 521 522 523 524<h4> 7. Can Mag-Drive Pumps Handle Toxic or Dangerous Process Fluids? </h4> 525 526 527 528<p>Mag-drive pumps can be very reliable in certain applications involving toxic and other dangerous process fluids including those that are corrosive, noxious, and <a href="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/mta.php" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label=" (opens in a new tab)">high purity liquids</a>. A mag-drive pump can definitely be solution to handling expensive fluids too; one sealed pump user reported that he was losing over $100,000 per year due to issues including leakage when handing a high-cost thermic oil used for heat transfer. </p> 529 530 531 532<p>Less âdangerousâ fluids can also be added to the listâ including liquids that, when leaked onto the floor, could cause an employee to slip. A risk management department might find mag-drive pumps very attractive. Similarly, using mag-drive pumps to move process fluids with an objectionable odor can provide a much more pleasant working environment. </p> 533 534 535 536<h4> 8. Will Caustics Damage Internal Rotating Components in a Mag Drive Pump? </h4> 537 538 539 540<p>Mag-drive pumps can be configured to withstand cleaning from caustic agents. This is a powerful advantage in applications that use process food grade oils due to the need to subject the pump to regular cleaning. If your application requires regular cleaning, be sure to mention it to your pump manufacturer to ensure proper outfitting for this need. </p> 541 542 543 544<p>Obviously, magnetic drive pump problems can easily be avoided. employing the preventative steps I discu
544ssed will almost certainly help keep your mag-drive pump running without issue. Although magnetic drive pumps are not the answer to every application, they can be an ideal solution across a broad range of applications when eliminating mechanical seals is desired.

There 567are several situations during system operation that can produce such 568conditions.</p> 569 570 571 572<h2>What are Some Common Upset Conditions?</h2> 573 574 575 576<p>The following are considered system upset conditions, during 577which the bearing lubricating film barrier is compromised:</p> 578 579 580 581<p>⢠operation of the pump with valves closed</p> 582 583 584 585<p>⢠insufficient pressure at the pump suction (inadequate net 586positive suction head available [NPSHa]) causing cavitation</p> 587 588 589 590<p>⢠extended periods of operation at extremely low flow 591conditions</p> 592 593 594 595<p>⢠extended periods of operation at high flow conditions with 596low pressure resistance at dischargeâoperation âoff the curveâ or beyond the 597maximum flow range</p> 598 599 600 601<p>⢠excessive cycling of system flow from one flow rate to 602another</p> 603 604 605 606<p>⢠excessive temperature that causes pumped liquid 607(lubricating flow) to vaporize at the bearing component surfacesâor not enough 608internal system pressure to keep the pumped fluid in liquid state as it passes 609through the pump</p> 610 611 612 613<p>⢠energizing motor without liquid in the pump, including 614briefly to check rotation</p> 615 616 617 618<p>⢠plugged impeller vane inlet at suction eye</p> 619 620 621 622<h2>Enhancing SiC Bearings</h2> 623 624 625 626<p><style> img { float: right; } </style><img decoding="async" src="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/SiC-X-Bearing.png" alt="SiC-X Bearing (enhanced)" style="width:251px;height:128px;margin-left:15px;"><a href="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/dry-run-resistant-bearings.php"><strong>Specially treated sintered SiC-X bearings</strong></a> are available from Magnatex to provide enhanced dry-running capabilities in the case of a system upset condition. All of these are called diamondlike coatings (DLC). Some manufacturers use coatings that adhere to the substrate SiC, while Magnatex uses infusion methods that mechanically integrate the coating into the base material. Integrating the diamond-like substance into the bearing ensure that the bearing will last longer verses those that simply coat the bearings’ surface. These treatments substantially reduce the surface coefficient of friction compared to that of standard sintered SiC. Less friction during system upset and other dry run conditions generate less heat, reducing the potential for bearing component breakage from mechanical contact or thermal shock.</p> 627 628 629 630<p>In reference to pumping equipment and product lubricated
631bearings, no one recommends that the pump be operated without liquid passing 632through it. There is some residual liquid that remains when the unit loses 633suction but that will quickly be pressed out of the sides of the bearing 634components with continued operation. Vaporization of the liquid can occur 635quickly depending on the size of the pump.</p> 636 637 638 639<h2>How Long Can Enhanced SiC Bearings Last?</h2> 640 641 642 643<p>Definitive dry run times would require specific testing of 644the pump size and conditions of service in question. For small pumps under 2 645horsepower (hp), testing has shown that the dry run time is minutes and can be 646stretched to more than an hour for the smallest pumps with the DLC coated 647bearings. The greater the power input to the pump, the shorter the time period 648before damage occurs in the bearing system. For larger pumps in the 50-plus-hp 649range, while DLC coatings will still help, the time before damage occurs 650remains quite short. Energizing the motor to check rotation of a pump without DLC 651coated bearings or liquid in the unit will likely result in some bearing 652damage. Damage from dry running will initially appear as cracked or chipped SiC 653components. As the liquid vanishes and the rotating ceramic components come in 654contact with stationary components, the SiC can shatter, breaking into small 655pieces. Continued operation damages more pump components such as the shaft, 656rear casing, casing cover and impellerâall of which are costly parts. This type 657of damage to the pump is preventable.</p> 658 659 660 661<h4>What About Other Bearing Types and Seals?</h4> 662 663 664 665<p>Lined, mag drive pumps use either SiC or nonmetallic bearing 666materials. Some of the latter may have enhanced lubricity but are still subject 667to the same axioms of running with compromised lubrication.</p> 668 669 670 671<p>Canned motor pumps, the other sealless centrifugal type, 672typically use softer bearing materials including carbon that are more 673lubricious, but susceptible to wear. These require a bearing monitor system to 674avoid component damage.</p> 675 676 677 678<p>With mechanically sealed pumps, seal faces operate on a 679similar hydrodynamic film and require the same type of lubrication. They will 680not run dry long without damage either.</p> 681 682 683 684<h2>How to Prevent Dry Running </h2> 685 686 687 688<p>Again, it is recommended that the pump be protected by a 689power monitor and that the low power trip point be set at a level representing 690the first indication that suction has been lost. Setting the low trip point 691time delay at less than 2 to 3 seconds can prevent tripping of the pump when a 692large bubble of vapor/air vents through the pump without losing suction. Trying 693to run longer to empty the suction line of product will result in damage to the 694pump that is more costly than the small amount of product that may remain in 695the suction line. A properly set power monitor will save money for the pump 696owner in several enterprise accounts.</p> 697 698 699 700<h2>Conclusion</h2> 701 702 703 704<p>Most damage to mag drive pumps can be avoided. So in 705revisiting our original title question, âHow long can I run my pump dry?â we 706should instead ask, âCan I or Should I run my pump dry?â Our qualified, âyes,â 707means that while you CAN run your pump dry, it should be avoided.</p> 708 </div><!-- .entry-content --> 709 710 <footer class="entry-footer"> 711 </footer><!-- .entry-footer --> 712</article><!-- #post-## --> 713 714<article id="post-229" class="post-229 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-uncategorized tag-centrifugal-pumps tag-dry-running tag-dry-running-pumps tag-magnetic-drive-pump"> 715 <div class="post-thumbnail"> 716 </div> 717 <header class="entry-header"> 718 <h2 class="entry-title"><a href="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/how-long-can-i-run-my-pump-dry/" rel="bookmark">How Long Can I Run My Pump Dry? | Can SiC Bearing Hold Up?</a></h2> <div class="entry-meta"> 719 <span class="posted-on">Posted on <a href="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/how-long-can-i-run-my-pump-dry/" rel="bookmark"><time class="entry-date published" datetime="2021-05-21T12:26:45+00:00">May 21, 2021</time></a></span> | <span class="byline"> by <span class="author vcard"><a class="url fn n" href="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/author/magnasaurustex/">Magnatex Pumps</a></span></span> </div><!-- .entry-meta --> 720 </header><!-- .entry-header --> 721 <div class="entry-content"> 722 723<p><em>Originally by Neal Gunn – Technical Manger</em></p> 724 725 726 727<p>Anyone familiar with industrial magnetic drive (mag drive) pumps has been asked about dry running the pump. After all, a dishwasher and washing machine at home do that all the time. There are bearing materials that allow that, right? The answer is a qualified, âYes,â but let’s take a closer look at dry running.</p> 728 729 730 731<p>Dry running, except in the literal sense, is a misnomer. 732Industrial pumps are mechanically sealed or sealless and can suffer from the 733results of what the industry has dubbed âdry run operation.â</p> 734 735 736 737<h2>Silicone Carbide (SiC) Bearings</h2> 738 739 740 741<p>Letâs examine the mag drive pump configuration with silicone 742carbine (SiC) bearing components, one of the two sealless types of rotodynamic 743centrifugal pumps. </p> 744 745 746 747<p>Mag drive pumps have product lubricated bearings that 748require liquid to be present for proper operation. These hydrodynamic (plain) 749bearings depend on a fluid barrier separating the bearing components that 750becomes a wedge when there is relative motion between the two surfaces. When 751this fluid barrier is disrupted, the two surfaces will touch and can lead to 752component damage. This effect can be cumulative, resulting in component failure 753when limits are reached.</p> 754 755 756 757<p>If the<strong> </strong>SiC surfaces touch during operation, the components can, depending on several factors, break in a short time. This does not mean the pump immediately stops operating. The broken SiC pieces may still support the shaft well enough to allow rotation of the pump rotor. Broken SiC can be detected by increased vibration and often a power increase. The condition of the pump will only get worse if operation is continued. </p> 758 759 760 761<h2>Conclusion</h2> 762 763 764 765<p>When the pump loses suction, it should be shut down 766immediately. Damage to the SiC 767components can occur in a matter of seconds. Using a power monitor to detect 768when the motor load has suddenly changed, such as when the pump loses suction, 769will protect major pump components. Continued operation without adequate liquid 770at the suction can quickly lead to severe damage of the SiC components.</p> 771 772 773 774<p>For long life, the pump requires that there be liquid
775available and that it be operated within the pump flow range of the curve and 776within the pump design limits. Please note that it is best to start the pump 777against a partially closed (about a quarter open) discharge valve. The suction 778valve should always be open when operating and only closed when the pump must 779be isolated for maintenance reasons. </p> 780 781 782 783<p>So SHOULD a pump be dry run? Ideally, no⦠but CAN it survive 784under upset conditions?</p> 785 </div><!-- .entry-content --> 786 787 <footer class="entry-footer"> 788 | <span class="tags-links">Tagged <a href="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/tag/centrifugal-pumps/" rel="tag">centrifugal pumps</a>, <a href="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/tag/dry-running/" rel="tag">Dry Running</a>, <a href="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/tag/dry-running-pumps/" rel="tag">Dry Running Pumps</a>, <a href="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/tag/magnetic-drive-pump/" rel="tag">Magnetic Drive Pump</a></span> </footer><!-- .entry-footer --> 789</article><!-- #post-## --> 790 791<article id="post-21" class="post-21 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-uncategorized"> 792 <div class="post-thumbnail"> 793 <img width="5000" height="2613" src="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Lining-Pumps-for-Corrosive-Applications-Graphic-01.png" class="attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image" alt="" decoding="async" loading="lazy" srcset="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Lining-Pumps-for-Corrosive-Applications-Graphic-01.png 5000w, https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Lining-Pumps-for-Corrosive-Applications-Graphic-01-300x157.png 300w, https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Lining-Pumps-for-Corrosive-Applications-Graphic-01-768x401.png 768w, https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Lining-Pumps-for-Corrosive-Applications-Graphic-01-1024x535.png 1024w" sizes="(max-width: 5000px) 100v

Power monitors are also set to shut pumps down if they detect high power draw which can be caused by running the pump too far to the right of the best efficiency point or by metal-to-metal contact of some kind inside the pump. <a href="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/dry-run-pump-protection.php"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignright size-medium" src="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/assets/images/pmp-25-pump-protector.jpg" width="304" height="522"/></a></p> 863<p> <a href="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/benefits-of-using-a-power-monitor-to-protect-centrifugal-process-pumps/#more-123" class="more-link">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">→</span></a></p> 864 </div><!-- .entry-content --> 865 866 <footer class="entry-footer"> 867 </footer><!-- .entry-footer --> 868</article><!-- #post-## --> 869 870<article id="post-106" class="post-106 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-uncategorized"> 871 <div class="post-thumbnail"> 872 <img width="5001" height="2613" src="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Mechanical-Seal-Vs-Sealless-02.png" class="attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image" alt="" decoding="async" loading="lazy" srcset="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Mechanical-Seal-Vs-Sealless-02.png 5001w, https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Mechanical-Seal-Vs-Sealless-02-300x157.png 300w, https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Mechanical-Seal-Vs-Sealless-02-768x401.png 768w, https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Mechanical-Seal-Vs-Sealless-02-1024x535.png 1024w" sizes="(max-width: 5001px) 100v

The concept of sealless magnetic drive centrifugal pumps has been around since the 1940s. In the past 30 years increased market demand for sealless pumps have driven pump manufacturers to continue to develop and evolve sealless pump designs. There are two primary types of sealless pumps; magnetic drive and canned motor pumps. This article will focus on magnetic drive pumps.</p> 879<p>What key points should you consider in deciding whether your application is best suited for a pump with a mechanical seal or a magnetic drive sealless pump?</p> 880<p> <a href="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/mechanical-seal-vs-sealless-centrifugal-pumps/#more-106" class="more-link">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">→</span></a></p> 881 </div><!-- .entry-content --> 882 883 <footer class="entry-footer"> 884 </footer><!-- .entry-footer --> 885</article><!-- #post-## --> 886 887<article id="post-161" class="post-161 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-uncategorized"> 888 <div class="post-thumbnail"> 889 </div> 890 <header class="entry-header"> 891 <h2 class="entry-title"><a href="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/magnetic-drive-sub-ansi-pumps/" rel="bookmark">MAGNETIC DRIVE SUB-ANSI PUMPS</a></h2> <div class="entry-meta"> 892 <span class="posted-on">Posted on <a href="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/magnetic-drive-sub-ansi-pumps/" rel="bookmark"><time class="entry-date published" datetime="2020-11-03T11:37:00+00:00">November 3, 2020</time></a></span> | <span class="byline"> by <span class="author vcard"><a class="url fn n" href="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/author/magnasaurustex/">Magnatex Pumps</a></span></span> </div><!-- .entry-meta --> 893 </header><!-- .entry-header --> 894 <div class="entry-content"> 895 896<div class="wp-block-media-text alignwide has-media-on-the-right"><figure class="wp-block-media-text__media"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" width="1024" height="768" src="https://18.116.16.148/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/MP-cleaned-2-1024x768.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-169" srcset="https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/MP-cleaned-2-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/MP-cleaned-2-300x225.jpg 300w, https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/MP-cleaned-2-768x576.jpg 768w, https://magnatexpumps.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/MP-cleaned-2.jpg 1600w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure><div class="wp-block-media-text__content"> 897<p> 898 899Close-coupled, compact, MP Series pumps are the efficient and dependable choice for medium-flow, medium-head applications.
