Groundwater and well pumping systems can involve sustained flow, changing discharge conditions, and localized pressure reduction. When pressure falls below vapor pressure near a restriction or outlet, cavitation can contribute to noise, vibration, and accelerated wear.
Water well and groundwater pumping systems can experience cavitation when flow velocity, discharge conditions, and pressure reduction create localized low-pressure zones. These issues may appear near pump discharge piping, control valves, restriction points, or discharge outlets.
Controlled pressure reduction can help support reliable water flow and reduce cavitation-related wear in suitable applications.
The Anti-Cavitate Orifice Plate™ helps manage flow, pressure drop, and cavitation behavior in a single fixed-geometry device.
Controlling how flow and pressure are reduced can lower noise levels generated within the system.
Managing the pressure drop helps mitigate cavitation that can damage pipes and downstream equipment.
The plate regulates flow rate to help the system operate within the intended design conditions.
