Preventing Cavitation in Agricultural Pumps

November 25, 2025

Agricultural pumping applications often operate with long suction runs, fluctuating water levels, and debris-laden sources such as ponds, canals, and reservoirs. These conditions make cavitation one of the most common performance problems in the field. Cavitation reduces flow, erodes impellers, increases vibration, and shortens pump life.

Using Cornell Pump RunDry® to Prevent Seal Damage

November 20, 2025

Running a centrifugal pump without liquid is one of the fastest ways to damage mechanical seals. Even a brief run-dry event can overheat the seal faces, crack elastomers, and dramatically shorten pump life. Cornell Pump developed the RunDry® system to address this problem directly, giving operators a reliable method to protect seals during low flow or no flow conditions.

Tuesday Tip: Understanding Priming Methods for Centrifugal Pumps

November 18, 2025

Before a centrifugal pump can move liquid, its casing and suction line must be filled with fluid. Air is the enemy of pump performance—just 3% entrained air can cause a centrifugal pump to lose prime.
Cornell pumps can be primed in several ways depending on installation, duty cycle, and automation needs. Here is a clear overview of common priming methods—how they work, and their advantages and disadvantages.

How Industrial Pumps Support Critical Manufacturing Processes

November 17, 2025

In every major manufacturing sector—from food processing and chemical production to mining, pulp and paper, and general industry—industrial pumps are the hidden workhorses that keep processes running smoothly. They move raw materials, manage waste streams, regulate heat transfer, and maintain pressure in systems that must operate with precision and reliability. Without pumps, production lines would stop, safety systems would fail, and efficiency would collapse.
