How Does A Concrete Line Pump Work?
To answer this question, we should make clear that the key of a concrete pump working principle is the pumping process.
The concrete pumping system adopts double cylinder and double loop hydraulic system.
As the concrete is discharged into the hopper, with the impetus of high pressure oil, the hydraulic motor drives the S valve to swing left and right and the S valve alternately connects with the output ports of the two concrete cylinders.
Concrete Line Pump Working Process
The two concrete cylinders are separately connected to the two cylinders of the main oil pump through the water tank.
The main oil pump alternately pushes and pulls the piston rods in the two main cylinders through high pressure oil, thus driving the piston heads connected with the rods to constantly alternately inhale and extrude concrete in the two concrete cylinders.
So as to realize the continuous concrete pumping.
In this way of pumping, the independent main pump hydraulic oil circuit system and S valve hydraulic oil circuit system make the whole system more concise, higher reliable, and easier to troubleshoot.
How Far Can Concrete Be Line Pumped?
The longest pumping distance is determined by the engine power, the pumping direction, the pumping pressure, the material characteristic, etc..
Generally, the average concrete pumping distance of a concrete line pump is 80m to 120m vertically and 1000m horizontally.
Some line pumps can reach to 200m vertically and 2000m horizontally.
What Are The Major Problems In Using Pumping For Concrete Works?
There are two major problems in concrete pumping work:
Blockage Of Concrete Pump
Blockage is the failure of concrete to emerge at the end of the pipeline. It is characterized by an increase in pressure that can be observed on the pressure gauge. It is caused by improper selection of pump equipment, gap-graded aggregate, lack of pipeline maintenance, high water/concrete ratio and loss of workability due to waiting at the construction site.
Segregation and bleeding in concrete mix
Segregation is the separation of cement paste and aggregate during the handling and placement of concrete. It occurs when pumping pressure overcomes the adhesion force in the concrete mix.
How to avoid concrete pumping problems?
1.Use well-graded aggregate and proportion concrete constituents property.
2.Mix concrete properly to fully coat.
3.Lubricate constituents and facilitate pumping process.
4.Correct and adjust labor skills.
5.Select the proper concrete pumping equipment.
6.Use pipe diameter of at least three times the maximum aggregate size to avoid the risk of blockage near bend points.
7.Clean the pipeline after each work.
