Description: Critical speed (nk) is the rotational speed at which acting dynamic forces cause a machine component (e. g. shaft, rotor) to vibrate at its natural frequency (also referred to as intrinsic frequency, fi) and can even result in resonant vibrations throughout the entire machine and pump set; Name: crit. Speed
Description: Speed of rotation at which the frequency of vibration (or its multiples) corresponds to the rotor resonant (lateral or torsional) ; Name: Critical speed
Description: the pressure whose value is equal to the algebraic difference between the absolute pressure and the atmospheric pressure. To this end, the overpressure for a pressure room can, for example, be negative with underpressure or under vacuum; Name: Max. overpressure of the shaft seal
