Reasons for end seal and gland seal leakage

A mechanical seal or a reinforced lip seal (packing), according to the manufacturer’s instructions, does not require maintenance during operation. Undoubtedly, this is an exceptional advantage for anyone using a pump with such a sealing element. But there is one BUT!
The operating instructions for the product contain clear guidelines under which conditions the hydraulic part will maintain its tightness:
absence of “dry running,” i.e., operation of the pump without liquid present in the flow path. “Dry” operation is accompanied by rapid heating of the friction pairs and melting of the rubber bellows or rubber ring;
bearing wear leads to increased vibrations and impact loads on the seal’s friction pairs, resulting in leakage and possible subsequent flooding of the electric motor;
pumping liquids that contain abrasives or inclusions that may damage the seal;
ignoring the need to flush the pump after completion of operation. When pumping liquids prone to crystallization or sticking, the pump should be flushed to prevent the friction pairs from sticking together or the edge of the rubber packing lip from adhering to the shaft.
In the photos below, you can observe the consequences of packing leakage. When pumping milk, the containers were emptied “to zero,” followed by dry running. Pump flushing was also not performed.
As can be seen in the photos, the pump was operated for a long time after the packing began to leak. This led to the need to rewind the motor, replace the bearings, and replace the packing.

BMS battery system lockout: why it happens and what to do about it

If the battery has stopped working, is not charging, or appears “dead”, even though everything seemed fine before — most likely the BMS protection has been triggered.
BMS is a Battery Management System. It ensures that all cells operate without overload, overheating, or short circuit. If something goes wrong, it simply “turns off” the battery to prevent damage to both the battery and the connected equipment.
Why the BMS locks
1. Over-discharge or overvoltage.
If even one cell is discharged below the allowed level or the voltage exceeds the norm, the system disconnects the battery. This is a common situation when the battery has been unused for a long time or is charged with an inverter that is too powerful.
2. Overheating or overcooling.
At temperatures below 0 °C, charging is prohibited because lithium crystals form inside the cells. In hot conditions above 50 °C, a lockout may also occur — to prevent ignition.
3. Excessive load or short circuit.
If the system “sees” that the current exceeds the allowed value, it disconnects instantly. This often happens due to improper inverter connection, especially if there are startup surges.
4. Cell balancing problems.
Over time, cells age unevenly and their voltages drift apart. The BMS detects this and reacts — especially during charging to 100%.
5. Loss of communication or firmware error.
In complex systems with CAN or RS485, any communication failure may cause a lockout, even if the cells themselves are fine.
How to unlock the system
1. Check the voltage at the terminals.
If the voltage is “0”, it does not mean the battery is empty. The BMS has simply disconnected the output. First, connect a control multimeter to each section or use the diagnostic port if available.
2. Try to “wake up” the BMS with a short charge.
In most cases, applying a small charging current (0,05–0,1 C) for a few minutes is enough for the system to exit sleep mode. Some LiFePO4 packs “wake up” even after a few seconds of applied voltage.
3. Cell balancing.
If the lockout is caused by voltage imbalance, the battery must be left on a charger in balancing mode (sometimes for several hours). The BMS will automatically level the cells and allow discharge.
4. Reset via service software.
Most “smart” BMS units (JBD, Daly, ANT, Seplos, Overkill Solar, etc.) have PC or smartphone apps. Through them, you can read errors and manually reset the lockout. However, it is important to eliminate the cause first, otherwise the system will lock again immediately.
5. Protection against deep discharge.
If the battery has been unused for a long time (especially for several months), the voltage may drop so low that the BMS “falls asleep”. In this case, you need a laboratory power supply with adjustable voltage to gradually “raise” the cells to a safe level.
6. Firmware update (for experienced users only).
If the BMS is “frozen” and unresponsive — re-flashing may help. However, do this only if you are confident in your skills, because a mistake can permanently damage the controller.
How to avoid repeated lockouts
Do not allow deep discharge — use a power management system or backup charging.
Do not use the battery in freezing temperatures without heating.
Every few months, check cell balance through the app or communication port.
If the battery is not in use, keep the charge level at 50–60% and store it in a dry place at +15…+25 °C.
And most importantly — never short the terminals manually in an attempt to “bypass” the BMS. This can cause smoke and burning smell.
Conclusion
BMS lockout is not a failure — it is protection from failure. It responds not to “whims”, but to real threats to the battery. If you understand the causes and act calmly, 90% of cases can be resolved without replacing the battery.
The main thing — do not panic, do not randomly poke wires, and always have a good multimeter or monitoring app at hand.

Alpha-amylase and glucoamylase

Alpha-amylase and glucoamylase are enzymes used in the food, alcohol, biotechnology, starch-processing and other industries.
The use of enzymes in alcohol production is a key stage, as they increase reaction speed and provide a higher alcohol yield, which in turn makes the production process more efficient. Enzymes break down complex carbohydrates into simple sugars, which then undergo alcoholic fermentation with the participation of yeast.
The activity of enzymes is influenced by factors such as temperature, fermentation time and pH level. Maintaining these conditions ensures optimal starch breakdown and the decomposition of other complex compounds.
Alpha-amylase breaks down starch into shorter dextrin chains.
Optimal operating temperature – 85–95˚C. Optimal pH level – 5.8–6.2.
Glucoamylase converts dextrins into glucose, which is then fermented by alcohol yeast into ethanol.
Optimal operating temperature – 56–60˚C. Optimal pH level – 4.0–4.8.
A set of enzyme preparations is available for sale, which includes 50 ml of alpha-amylase and 50 ml of glucoamylase.
This is the optimal enzyme dosage for producing distillates at home, calculated for 200 kg of grain (flour).
In combination with enzymes, yeast must be used for the production of alcoholic beverages. Cold fermentation alcohol yeast Kodzi Angel Leaven has proven to be highly effective.

Operation of a centrifugal pump under vacuum

First, a bit of theory.
NPSH — “Net Positive Suction Head,” also known as the cavitation margin — is the most important parameter for evaluating a pump’s suction capability. NPSH defines the minimum pressure at the pump inlet required for cavitation-free operation.
There are two NPSH values: NPSHr (“required”) — the required cavitation margin, i.e., the minimum pressure needed at the pump suction nozzle. NPSHr for each pump is determined through factory testing and indicated on graphs and in tables (see Fig. 1). Note that these data are provided for liquid temperature of +20°C.
Fig. 1
Comparison of NPSH values for pumps operating at 1500 and 3000 rpm.
NPSHa (“available”) — the available suction head in the system where the pump is installed. Since pumps operate within a system ( heating, water supply, wastewater , alcohol production , food processing, etc.), pump performance depends largely on the piping layout, the system configuration, shut-off valves , automation , and not only on the pump's construction or manufacturer.
NPSHa (system) must always be greater than NPSHr (pump)
NPSHa > NPSHr
This condition must be met for proper, cavitation-free pump operation.
Let us consider an example of pump operation when pumping liquid from a vessel under vacuum. This could be, for example, a chemical reactor or a distillation/fermentation column , from which stillage is being removed.
The basic scheme of such a process is shown in Fig. 2
The engineering design is shown in Fig. 3
Fig. 2
Fig. 3
NPSHa for a system operating under vacuum is calculated using the following formula:
NPSHa = P + Lh − (Vp + Hf)
P — pressure above the liquid surface in a closed vessel (gauge pressure);
since the vessel is under vacuum, we assume P = 0 (absolute vacuum, although in real systems absolute pressure will never be exactly zero)
Lh — maximum static head (flooded suction height);
Vp — vapor pressure of the liquid at the maximum operating temperature;
Hf — friction losses in the suction pipeline at the required pump flow rate;
From this formula, we can conclude that to increase the pump’s suction capability, one must increase the liquid column height (Lh), reduce the vapor pressure (Vp) — since it depends on temperature, cooler liquid is preferable — and reduce friction losses in the pipeline (increase suction pipe diameter, install shut-off valves of larger diameter).
As shown in Fig. 1, it is preferable to use pumps operating at 1500 rpm instead of 3000 rpm.

Choosing a battery for an inverter and UPS

Our company specializes in selling batteries of various voltages from manufacturers ROSEN and Cooli .
The batteries are compatible with hybrid inverters and/or uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) from 12 to 24 V – “low-voltage” – and 44–56 V (“high-voltage”).
We would like to note that when choosing LiFePO4 batteries, there are several important nuances:
It is important (!) to know the specifications of the inverter or UPS to which the LiFePO4 battery will be connected.
The voltage of the average expected energy consumption.
The amount of time during the day for which the batteries must provide power.
We will select a battery from a certified manufacturer
