As GN is manufacturing more and
more mud tanks every year,
more and more customers from abroad are asking for GN Solids Control Co. to
give his technical salutations for them. For a salesman, to understand know to
calculate the effective of mud tanks in a fast way is very important. Customers
will be impressed by a knowledgeable sale.
So today we are willing to share
some ways to calculate the effective volume of GN tank.
The GN tank’s effective volume is
determined by three factors: one is the inner effective length, the other one
is the inner width, and the last one is the height of corrugated board. So the
volume equals to the product of these three factors.
When it comes to container type
tanks, the effective length is the same as the actual length of the container.
However, for a skid type tank, the effective length should be deducted by 500mm
because we need to take the skid parts into consideration.
If a centrifugal pump is fixed on
the skid, the effective length should be calculated in this way:
1. The centrifugal pump is fixed
horizontally
When a pump is fixed
horizontally, this means it is align with the length direction of the tank, so
a pump with 37kw motor can be seen as taking the length of 2.5m, and powers
above 45kw should be deducted by 2.8m for other pumps.
Besides, if there are two paralleled pumps, the tank length should be deducted
by an extra 300mm.
2. The centrifugal pump is fixed
vertically
But if the pump is fixed
vertically to the direction of tank’s length direction, 37kw motor will be
calculated as 1m and 45kw motor (or above) will be treated as 1.3m.
There
is also another case we should fully understand, sometimes we will design the
mud tank into a inclined type. Generally speaking, power of motor within 37kw
should be calculated as 3m³；45kw and 55kw
motors should be calculated as 3.5 m³； and 75kw motors
should be calculated as 4m³.
The
main products of GN Solids Control is Decanter Centrifuge, Shale Shaker, Shaker Screen, Vertical
Cuttings Dryer etc.
