closure of the delivery valve:
Priming is necessary to remove any air present in the pump and its suction line by filling the system with liquid.
During the priming process of a centrifugal pump, the delivery valve is usually kept closed to avoid air being drawn into the system and to ensure the pump and suction line are fully filled with liquid before starting.
This is essential because centrifugal pumps cannot pump air and must be filled with liquid to function correctly.
