Propelling Solutions: The Role of Propeller Pumps in Industry
Fixed-pitch propellers are those that feature blades that cannot be adjusted while in use. Others include blades with movable pitches that can be adjusted after the propeller is removed. In contrast, the pitch of the blades on a variable-pitch propeller can be altered while the propeller is in motion. An additional meaning of a "propeller pump" is an impeller-style pump designed for mixed flow applications that has replaceable vanes.
