The centrifugal pump has several advantages that contribute to its widespread use. Its simple and robust construction makes it relatively inexpensive to manufacture and maintain. The high speed of centrifugal pumps also allows for direct connection to an asynchronous motor, eliminating the need for a gearbox or transmission. Additionally, centrifugal pumps are capable of handling large flow rates and are often more efficient than other types of pumps, such as positive displacement pumps. Furthermore, their design makes them less prone to cavitation and allows for easier installation and operation.
