Description
Causes of vortex formation at the suction inlet and solutions from anti-vortex plates
In both industrial and civil water supply systems, vortex currents frequently occur right at the pump suction port, especially when the water level in the storage tank drops. This condition allows air to enter the pipeline, reduces pump flow rate, causes vibration noise, and risks damaging the impeller due to dry running. To eliminate this phenomenon, mechanical engineers typically install specialized equipment called anti-vortex plates or anti-vortex strainers at the submerged pipe opening in the tank.
Technical specifications and classification of anti-vortex plates at Tan Dat workshop
Tan Dat mechanical workshop directly manufactures anti-vortex equipment lines that meet the practical requirements of each project. The products help stabilize the flow, ensuring the pump chamber is always filled with water. Depending on specific operating conditions, engineers can choose two common structural types:
- Standard type without mesh: Specialized for breaking up vortices and optimizing water flow into the suction pipe when the storage tank capacity is low.
- Integrated strainer mesh type: Simultaneously prevents vortices and retains coarse debris and suspended waste, protecting downstream valves and pumps.
Fabrication specifications and manufacturing materials of custom anti-vortex plates
Each project has different pipe dimensions and tank spaces, so custom fabrication according to individual drawings is the optimal solution. Tan Dat Flex accepts flexible fabrication according to the technical specifications of the construction unit:
| Technical criteria | Detailed information |
|---|---|
| Main material | Stainless steel 304 with good corrosion resistance; optional Stainless steel 316 for chemical or saline water environments |
| Dimensions & Length | Flexible fabrication according to the actual tank dimensions and pipe diameter |
| Connection type | Flanged or threaded to flexibly connect with existing piping systems |
| Factory inspection | 100% pressure testing and visual inspection of products prior to delivery |
Manufacturing process and installation instructions for water anti-vortex equipment
At Tan Dat's manufacturing workshop in HCMC, the fabrication process strictly adheres to technical steps from receiving drawings, shape cutting using specialized machinery to pressure and visual inspections. When installing in water tanks, engineers must note to set the distance from the anti-vortex plate to the bottom and walls of the tank according to the manufacturer's recommendations so as not to obstruct the water flow entering the pipe.

Frequently asked questions about anti-vortex plates
Why do fire protection water tanks need anti-vortex plates?
When the water level is low, the suction creates a funnel vortex causing the pump to draw in air, reducing flow and damaging the pump. The anti-vortex plate breaks the vortex, helping the pump draw out almost all the water in the tank.
How to choose the size of the anti-vortex plate?
The plate diameter is usually several times larger than the suction pipe diameter and complies with fire protection design drawings. Tan Dat fabricates according to your suction pipe DN and drawings.
What is the function of the water anti-vortex plate in pump systems?
The anti-vortex plate helps eliminate vortices in the suction pipeline, prevents air from entering the system, and keeps the pump fully primed at all times, ensuring maximum operating performance.
Does Tan Dat accept custom anti-vortex plate fabrication?
Yes. Tan Dat workshop accepts fabrication according to customers' requirements for length, size, connection type, and material.
What materials are used to manufacture anti-vortex plates?
Products are primarily fabricated from Stainless Steel 304, or Stainless Steel 316 according to the technical requirements of each project.
