02 / Working Principle

How a Pitot Tube Pump Works

A rotating chamber and a stationary pickup tube work together to generate high pressure in a single stage.

  1. Liquid enters the rotating chamber.

    The pump draws liquid into the chamber through the inlet.

  2. Rotation builds pressure.

    The chamber transfers energy to the liquid as it rotates.

  3. The pickup tube delivers the flow.

    The stationary tube collects the moving liquid, converts velocity energy into additional pressure, and directs it to the outlet.

03 / Engineering Advantages

Designed for Steady Flow and Longer Service

Simple hydraulics, robust connections and wear-resistant options help keep demanding processes running.

Smooth, Continuous Flow

Continuous rotary pumping provides low-pulsation flow for process feed and high-pressure liquid supply.

A Simple Single-Stage Design

A rotating chamber and stationary pickup tube generate high head without a stack of impeller stages. The simple hydraulic layout supports long service and straightforward maintenance.

A Robust Pickup Tube Connection

EHIK's large-diameter threaded connection provides secure support for the pickup tube. We continuously improve the connection design for demanding service.

Wear-Resistant Options for Abrasive Liquids

In extremely abrasive conditions with high concentrations of hard particles, EHIK offers more wear-resistant solutions that can extend pickup tube replacement intervals from 1–3 weeks for standard tubes to 2–3 months. We continuously improve wear protection and connection design.

39.5% less electricity

For the same volume of gas-field water pumped.

EHIK replaced the multistage centrifugal pump at Kong 6 Well. The motor rating was reduced from 95 kW to 45 kW (approximately 127 hp to 60 hp). Site meter readings showed 39.5% lower electricity use for the same volume of gas-field water pumped, with stable operation and fewer repairs.
