Consisting of an impeller with curved vanes, a mixed flow pump directs fluid both axially and radially within the pump casing. As the impeller rotates, it imparts both axial and radial velocity to the fluid, creating a diagonal flow path.

Key features of mixed flow pumps include:

1. Moderate to high flow rates with medium head (pressure)

2. Curved impeller vanes that guide fluid diagonally

3. Fluid movement in both axial and radial directions

4. Suitable for applications requiring a balance of flow and pressure

These pumps are commonly used in scenarios such as:

- Water supply systems

- Irrigation and drainage

- Wastewater treatment plants

- Industrial processes

- HVAC systems

Mixed flow pumps offer a balance between the high flow capabilities of axial pumps and the higher pressure capabilities of radial pumps. They are efficient for applications requiring moderate to high flow rates with medium pressure increases.
