Watson McDaniel Ejectors perform a variety of functions depending on the application and motive fluid (steam or water) used. See performance charts on the following pages. Applications include: exhausting, agitating, aerating, circulating, pumping and mixing.

W-EJECT

HOW IT WORKS
Using water, steam or air pressure as the motive force, ejectors operate on the principle that a high velocity flow through a nozzle will create a pressure drop in the area around the nozzle discharge. The resulting vacuum will induce flow into the secondary inlet of the ejector.

25 FT. MAXIMUM LIFT

SUCTION HEAD

It is always desirable to keep the Ejector as close to the actual liquid being pumped as possible. The maximum height the liquid can be pumped depends on the pressure of the motive liquid or steam available. Please refer to the capacity graphs for maximum flow rates and maximum achievable heads.

The maximum height that water or any liquid with a specific gravity of 1 can be lifted is 25 feet. Increases in the temperature of the liquid being lifted will cause this maximum height to decrease. Pumping liquids in excess of 130F is not recommended. Please consult factory with any specific application.

Example 1
A #14 1 Ejector using 60 lbs. of water pressure as a motive force will pump water to a maximum height of 40 ft. When pumping water to a height of 20 ft. using 60 lbs. of water pressure, the amount of water being pumped is 700 gal/hr.

Example 2
A #14 1 Ejector using 60 lbs. of steam pressure as a motive force will pump water to a maximum height of 60 ft. When pumping water to a height of 53 ft. using 60 lbs. of steam pressure, the amount of water being pumped is 650 gal/hr.
