What Suction Pipe?

A suction pipe is a tube or conduit that carries fluid from a source, such as a tank or reservoir, to the inlet of a pump. It is used to draw the fluid into the pump, where it is then transported or pressurized for further use. The design and positioning of the suction pipe are crucial for minimizing flow resistance, preventing air entry, and avoiding cavitation, ensuring efficient pump operation.
