When transporting media such as asphalt, resin, and hot oil under high-temperature conditions exceeding 200°C, their permeability, volatility, and thermal expansion properties significantly increase, causing traditional centrifugal pumps to experience media leakage due to seal failure, which can lead to major safety incidents such as fires, environmental pollution, and equipment damage. To address this challenge, the RY series hot oil pumps employ structural sealing and carefully selected materials to establish a comprehensive high-temperature transfer safety system, guaranteeing operational safety and zero leakage during the transfer process.
This series of thermal oil pumps differs from conventional thermal oil pumps, which rely solely on a single mechanical seal, in that it employs a design that combines a packing seal with a mechanical seal. On the one hand, the material of the packing seal offers excellent self-lubricating properties and wear resistance in high-temperature environments, effectively blocking most pathways for medium leakage outside the pump body. On the other hand, the high-temperature and high-pressure resistant carbide mechanical seal ensures that even when the packing seal experiences slight wear due to long-term operation, the mechanical seal can still maintain a reliable seal. Hence, this design enables the pump to operate stably and leak-free for extended periods even under extreme temperatures of 350°C.
RY centrifugal oil pumps feature pump bodies, pump covers, and impellers manufactured from high-temperature-resistant materials, which maintain structural stability and a low coefficient of thermal expansion even under high-temperature conditions to prevent the deformation and resulting increase in clearance at sealing contact surfaces that typically occur with ordinary cast iron or carbon steel when heated. Concurrently, the surface hardness of the pump shaft has been significantly enhanced, and in conjunction with a precision-machined seal chamber, this ensures that the sealing elements maintain proper alignment and contact throughout the process of high-temperature axial thermal expansion. The pump body of this series features a single-stage, single-suction, cantilevered foot-supported structure with axial inlet and vertical upward discharge, and the entire unit is mounted on the same base as the motor. The bearing system employs double-ended ball bearings: the front end is lubricated with oil, while the rear end uses grease, with an oil guide tube positioned in the middle to allow real-time monitoring of leakage in the seal chamber while recovering trace amounts of leaked heat transfer oil back into the system, thereby preventing the medium from escaping into the environment. This design, which eliminates the need for a cooling water system, not only completely eliminates secondary safety risks caused by water-cooling pipe failures but also allows the pump body to naturally achieve thermal equilibrium at high temperatures, thereby effectively extending seal life and significantly reducing the probability of sudden leaks. RY high temperature oil pumps are capable of delivering stable, leak-free performance over extended periods at operating temperatures exceeding 350°C. This is achieved through a dual-seal design, the use of high-temperature-resistant materials, and the absence of a cooling system. This not only directly mitigates the risks posed by high-temperature media to equipment and operators, ensuring safety during the transfer process, but also significantly reduces maintenance costs and downtime risks, thereby guaranteeing the reliability of continuous production. For industries requiring thermal oil circulation heating, such as petrochemicals, textile printing and dyeing, rubber and plastics, and road construction, this thermal oil pump offers a reliable and effective solution for high-temperature pumping applications.
