Used most often when pressure is needed in a system or fluid must be moved upward, it consists of a rotating wheel with vanes, inside a casing, for example a centrifugal pump. The fluid that goes into the center of the spinning impeller is flung to the outer edges by use of centrifugal force, which gives velocity to the fluid due to the rotational speed of the impeller. The flow of the fluid is directed through the pump casing discharge outlet by the casing around the impeller. An impeller can be used with a number of fluids.
1] A rotor or wheel with blades or vanes used in pumps to drive and circulate fluid. Also see volute. [2] The driving torus in the fluid coupling or torque converter of an automatic transmission.
a part of a pump that causes the fluid to move. Similar to a blade.
The part of the rotating element of a dynamic compressor that imparts energy to the flowing medium by means of centrifugal force. It consists of a number of blades mounted so as to rotate with the shaft. ( 060)
Part of a filter or powerhead looking a little like the propeller on a boat motor, and used to for the same purpose - to move water.
A rotating disk with a set of vanes coupled to the engine or drive shaft that produces centrifugal force within the pump casing of a centrifugal pump.
n: a set of mounted blades used to impart motion to a fluid air or gas (such as, the rotor of a centrifugal pump).
The rotating vanes of a centrifugal pump; its action creates the flow of water. The impeller is shaft driven by an electric motor.
Rotors found in well pumps that are used to push water to the surface through the well column.
a flat disk with vanes or blades attached to one side
a rotating component of a (A mechanical device that moves fluid or gas by pressure or suction) pump which transfers ((physics) the capacity of a physical system to do work
a rotating component of a pump , ussualy made of iron, steel, aluminum or plastic, which transfers energy from the motor that drives the pump to the fluid being pumped by forcing the fluid outwards from the centre of rotation
a rotor-like device that has curved blades
a type of rotor in a turbine where the mechanical, rotary motion of the rotor is created by the impact of the streaming medium onto vanes or cups
a very small multi-bladed prop that is located inside a duct
Propeller-like device at base of shaft inside of a pump tube. Develops high pressure and low flow of liquids.
Rotating part of a centrifugal compressor which increases the pressure of refrigerant vapor from the cooler pressure to the condenser pressure.
Rotating wheel with vanes found inside a centrifugal pump. As it spins at high speed it draws fluids in and thrusts them under pressure to the discharge outlet.
The component of the rotating element of a dynamic compressor that gives energy to the flowing medium through centrifugal force. An impeller is comprised of blades that rotate with the shaft.
Attaches to the end of the shaft to impart energy to the fluid being pumped. Available in open, semi- open and closed designs.
The part of the agitator that imparts force to the material being mixed. Examples of impellers are propellers, turbines, gates, anchors and paddles.
An object that drives forward; propels.
Rotating part of the pump that pushes water.
A device that impels or pushes forward such as the rotor of a centrifugal pump or air compressor. in inch(es) inland Petroleum Distribution System See IPDS
The spinning component in a centrifugal-type pump that pushes fluid through the system.
an impeller is a rotor inside a turbomachine used to increase the pressure and flow of a fluid. Simlar to propeller with smaller blades.
The part of a high-speed instrument that provides rotation of the cutting tool (bur).
The rotating element of a pump which imparts movement and pressure to a fluid.
Rotating member of an agitating or pumping device.
the most important part of the pump. The impeller's rotating veins create the suction into the pump & flow through the rest of the filtering system.
A rotating disk with vanes of varying amounts attached to the "r" drive shaft that creates centrifugal force within the pump casing of a centrifugal pump. Impellers can be open or closed.
The rotating member of a pump. The part of the pump that moves the water.
An electrically operated propeller that causes water to flow through a pump or filter.
A blade of a pumping device; a propeller type fitting which produces suction when rotated.
The impeller is located in the wet end of the pump. It spins with the pump motor, centrifugally pulling water in (suction side) and forcing it out (pump discharge end). Hot Tubs Parts Catalog
A rotor that transmits motion such as a supercharger or turbine.
The rotating part of a pump that is responsible for the movement of water through the pump.
The "heart" of the centrifugal spa (and/or pool) pump. Rotating vanes create the suction flow of the water into the pump.
A disk with multiple vanes. It is attached to the pump engine or motor and is used to create the centrifugal force necessary for moving water through the pump casing.
A circular pump part with canes that rotate to provide centrifugal force for propelling water in the circulation system. The impeller spins on the end of the electric motor shaft and is the only moving part of a centrifugal pump. Closed , semi-open or open impellers are used. Closed impeller: A pump impeller with the vanes contained on both sides and an opening in the center (the eye). Water enters the eye and is centrifugally forced out the end of the closed impeller. Semi- open impeller: A pump impeller with the vanes exposed on one side; the open vanes face the volute wall, forming chambers through which the water flows. Open impeller: A pump impeller with exposed vanes like a water wheel. (Rarely used in pumps manufactured for use in the pool and spa industry). Pressure Differential: The difference in water pressure between two points in a hydraulic system.
Device used to pump and force water under pressure through a steering nozzle at the rear of the vessel
The rotating component of the pump that moves water through the pump.
A rotating set of vanes in a pump designed to pump or lift water.
Another term for fan “wheelâ€. The rotating portion of the fan designed to increase the energy level of the gas stream.
The rotating wheel of a centrifugal pump.
A rotating disc on a shaft at the center of a centrifugal pump housing. The slanted vanes of a rotating impeller impart the centrifugal force that expels the water from the pump. Vaned, circulating member of the centrifugal pump that transmits motion to the water.
The rotating part of a pump that causes the centrifugal force to develop fluid flow and pressure difference.
An impeller is a rotor inside a tube or conduit to increase the pressure and flow of a fluid.
