Centrifugal Pumps vs. Positive Displacement Pumps

If you need to move liquid material from one place to another, you’re going to need a pump. Industrial pumps come in two different types: centrifugal pumps and positive displacement pumps. Each type has unique properties concerning efficiency, flow rate, viscosity, and pressure. Here’s what you need to know about centrifugal and positive displacement pumps
