Water Pump Basics and Water Pump Accessories in the Market

Posted on September 29, 2010 by admin

Water Pump Basics

Water Pumps play an integral role whether in our homes or in our car. It is the most vital part of the cooling system for cars. Its purpose is to circulate the engine coolant continuously through the cooling system. This would be from the radiator onto the engine and then going back again. The engine fails when the pump malfunctions. Your car will inevitably overheat and damage the car.

Pumps are also installed in houses to facilitate better water flow in the faucets and showers, especially for residences with second floors.

There are water pumps that derive its power from the engine itself. There are also those that operate via a pulley and belt. Some function through a chain or gear. The power is then transferred onto a shaft with an impeller.

The role of the impeller is to spin and circulate coolant. This is similar to how a propeller functions on an airplane or a boat in order to move air or water. The impeller and the shaft spins on a type of sealed bearing which may eventually wear out.

Most water pumps are easily accessible. Servicing them only requires basic hand tools and the mechanical know-how. For water pumps deeply buried in an engine, you need to seek professional help for this situation.

Keep your Engine Cool With a First Rate Water Pump

Posted on August 22, 2010 by admin

Your engine is an intricate machine that utilizes fuel and air through a process called combustion. This process allows a car to be able to run. Physics serves to remind any critical-thinking driver that any machine which undergoes a process of utilizing energy through combustion would involve heat. It is that very heat from the combustion of gasoline and air that car owners should look out for. This is why a car has a built-in cooling system which serves to regulate the heat that may build up inside the engine. The cooling system has many parts including the radiator, cooling fan, timing belt, heater hoses, engine block, cylinder head and water pump. All seven car parts work to ensure the proper regulation of temperature in the engine. All parts must be in proper working condition to make for an efficient circulation of coolant in the engine.

Among the parts previously mentioned, the water pump works as the heart of the cooling system. The water pump is usually a centrifugal pump that circulates coolant while the engine is running. It helps remove excessive heat from the engine. The water pump first receives hot, “used up” water from the radiator into the pump vanes. Hot water is then cooled and then circulated through the engine block and back into the radiator.

Most of the time, a car overheats because of a malfunctioning water pump. Among the telltale signs of a malfunctioning water pump is excessive noise while the car engine is running. Another is a coolant leak in the vent under the water pump. It is suggested that the water pump be replaced regularly as a preventive maintenance measure and that the replacement be secured in place whenever other parts of the cooling system are replaced as well. Having the pump replaced with everything else is a good option because there is better visibility for servicing the water pump when the rest of the parts in a cooling system are also removed for repair. A perfectly functioning water pump is important because it will save a car from the costly repairs of engine overheating. Make sure to purchase only high – quality water pumps that are worth every penny spent.

How to check the Car Water Pump

Posted on August 8, 2010 by admin

Water pump is an important part of the engine. It helps to maintain the temperature of the engine to avoid overheating. It is a belt driven mechanical device which circulates the mixture antifreeze element and water through the engine. The external design of the water pump varies from vehicle to vehicle but key function of all is the same. It can be found near the car’s front or side, behind the fan belt. The distinguished hollow disc shape in the center and several arms scattering outward will make it look like an octopus. It is attached to the radiator and engine on both the sides with arms. The rest of the arms keep water pump body intact. Fan belt or a secondary adjacent belt is located over the top of the axle, which is ascending from the disc.

Working of the water pump

Water pump works when the engine is on. All the water pumps work solely on centrifugal force.  As soon as the engine turns on, the fan belt moves and rotating the axle at the center of the pump.
Inside the pump the axle is connected with chain or series of propeller blades also known as vanes. These vanes turn along with the axle. The rotation results in the suction of water from the radiator. Once the water reaches the pump, the centrifugal force generated by the vanes throw it against the outer walls of the pump. Finally, the water is force downward in a channel and eventually it enters the engine. From engine the water flows out to cylinder heads and back to the radiator and the process reiterate.

Examining the water pump for certain failure

It is easy to start with examining the parking place for your vehicle. If you find any signs of liquid or oil spots on the floor under the water pump area, you must have a leakage in pump.

The green color of the fluid on floor shows that your car is leaking antifreeze agent or coolant. It has been noticed that in so many cases that coolant leakage is mostly from water pump.

Open the front hood and examine visually the water pump for possible leak. If you examine closely you will find a hole at the side or bottom of the pump, called weep hole or drainage hole. These holes are normally sealed with gasket. Once the water pump begins to rip, gaskets will be corroded. In this case, the coolant begins to leak from the weep hole. This is very severe and suggestive indication that the water pump is no longer able to do it job. If you find coolant leak from the pump when your system is stall, your foremost concern is to contact the mechanic. or else you risk your vehicle to severe and irremediable damage.

Different Types of Pumps

Posted on August 5, 2010 by admin

Pumps are very functional and popular tools especially for industrial purposes. These are capable of forcing many types of fluid which includes water, oil and fuel across pipes or containers. It can be electric powered, solar powered or manually operated.

There are many water pumps commonly seen in residential areas, parks and even in parking spaces. They are commonly called as nodding donkey. Special pumps are also commonly used with industrial refineries such as for oil production and other common industries.

Homeowners also deploy pumps for their basements. These pumps are specifically designed to suck water away from the basement in case of heavy rainfall which causes flooding.

Pumps are also used for any type of vehicle which runs on gasoline or diesel. This type is called an engine pump designed to sip fuel from the fuel tank going to the car’s engine. A vehicle also consists of a water pump designed to prevent the car from overheating.

The water pump basics of a car are simple. The very pump is considered the main component for the car’s cooling system. Its main function is to maintain the proper flow of engine coolant from the radiator and into the engine. In case it fails, the whole cooling system malfunctions altogether. The car will overheat and can severely damage different parts of the engine.

This pump is powered by the car’s engine. It is attached with a fan belt or a pulley connected to a gear. The supplied power is diverted to a shaft in which the impeller is connected. The impeller rotates in a circular motion which maintains the circulation of the coolant. The water pump works with a sealed bearing which needs to be regularly changed because it normally wears out.

It is easy to detect a defective pump because it will show some failing signs. The first noticeable sign is a leaking coolant. Another sign is when you hear noises coming from the pump. This means that the bearings are damaged and needs to be replaced. Another sign is you see the engine perspiring with liquid.

Should you observe any of these telltale signs, it is very important to service or replace the water pump the soonest time possible in order to prevent further damage to the engine. Normally, water pumps are located beneath the engines so it would be practical to service the pumps together with the engine. However, some water pumps can easily be accessed and can easily be serviced using basic tools only.

The water pumps might as well be serviced when the radiator is to be replaced. This is practically best since replacing the radiator would require that the coolant be drained thoroughly. It is also easier to repair it when the radiator is removed.

Choose the perfect replacement that complements your engine well to achieve a reliable cooling system. There are many types and models available in the market depending on the model of your car. Some retailers are selling second hand models also. Check if these are still in good condition before buying.

But if you want to have peace of mind, it is more practical to choose a brand new water pump. Most of the retailers provide better warranty service for their product which is more convenient.

Make it a point to read about pump reviews so it would help you decide which one to choose. It is also advisable to canvass the cheapest price from various retailers.
