Anti-vortex plate with strainer

Technical Solutions for Vortex Phenomenon in Industrial Storage Tanks

In industrial and civil piping systems, discharging or suctioning liquid from storage tanks is often accompanied by rapid flows forming vortex funnels as the water level drops. If operating engineers fail to control this issue well, the vortex will cause direct consequences for downstream equipment. When the water level in the tank drops to a critical limit, air is easily drawn into the suction pipe inlet. This condition reduces pump efficiency, generates loud noise, causes pipe vibration, and risks damaging the pump impeller if operated continuously. Furthermore, flow instability also negatively affects the continuous water supply capacity of the entire system, which is particularly dangerous in fire protection networks.

To thoroughly solve the above problem, integrating an anti-vortex plate right at the starting point of the pipeline is a standard design method widely applied. This device helps break the vortex funnel structure, keeping the liquid flow entering the conduit in a stable state and maximizing the reserved water volume in the tank.

Structural Characteristics and Technical Specifications of Tan Dat Anti-Vortex Plates

Tan Dat Mechanical Workshop in HCMC directly fabricates and supplies anti-vortex plates with flexible technical specifications according to the actual requirements of each project:

• Product Name: Anti-vortex plate (anti-vortex suction device).
• Standard Manufacturing Material: Stainless steel 304, with optional stainless steel 316 material available according to the specific characteristics of the liquid environment.
• Device Length: Cut and fabricated according to drawings or actual installation requirements.
• Connection Type: Synchronously machined according to the nominal diameter (DN) of the suction pipe and system flange.
• Additional Features: Can be integrated with a debris filter screen to retain sediment and protect the pump impeller safely.

The production process at the workshop always complies with strict inspection steps. Before leaving the factory for delivery to customers, each product undergoes pressure testing and visual inspection to ensure the best mechanical quality.

Practical Applications in Piping and Fire Protection Systems

Thanks to the ability to eliminate air bubbles and maintain stable flow rates, the anti-vortex plate is an indispensable equipment in many construction items:

• Fire protection water tank systems (PCCC) in factories, industrial zones, and high-rise buildings.
• Domestic water storage tank systems, underground pumping stations supplying water for residential areas.
• Wastewater treatment lines and large-scale clean water supply pumping stations.
