Installation Angle of Archimedes screw pumps

Archimedes screw pumps has standardized Installation angles at 30º, 35º and 38º

Installation Angle

As you can see from the simplified sketch below: the lower the angle of inclination with the horizontal axis, the better the effective filling >ergo> the better the pump efficiency. However, when the required lift is rather high, we need to increase the angle in order to keep deflection of the screw within allowable tolerances.

Spaans Babcock has standardized angles at 30º, 35º and 38º. Other angles are possible on request or recommendation from Spaans Babcock but will always be between 22º and 40º.
