gas to drag
Increase the static height at the suction
Check that the intake is not blocked or are no bottlenecks.
Reduce the liquid temperature. Increase the diameter of the
intake pipes.
Reduce the length of inlet pipes. Open completely the inlet
valve. Check the viscosity of the liquid; refer to "technical
data" section of this manual, increase the temperature of the
liquid if necessary.
Check the condition of rotating ring wear and collar. Replace
if worn; refer to Chapter 10 of this manual
Reduce the liquid temperature
