Submersible Pumps
Submersible pumps are designed to be submerged in the fluid they are pumping. They prevent pump cavitation, a problem associated with a high elevation difference between the pump and the fluid surface.
Components of Submersible Pumps
- Motor: The electric motor is hermetically sealed to prevent water ingress, designed to be cooled by the surrounding fluid.
- Pump Casing: Encases the pump components and provides structural integrity, typically made of corrosion-resistant materials like stainless steel.
- Impeller: Converts mechanical energy into fluid flow and pressure, can be radial or mixed flow depending on design and application.
- Shaft: Connects the motor to the impeller, transmitting rotational energy. Often made of stainless steel for durability and corrosion resistance.
- Seals: Prevent fluid from entering the motor housing and provide additional sealing between components.
Types of Submersible Pumps
- Well Pumps: Used in water wells.
- Sump Pumps: Remove water accumulated in a sump basin, commonly found in basements.
- Sewage Pumps: Transport sewage from one place to another.
Applications of Submersible Pumps
- Water wells
- Wastewater treatment
- Drainage systems
- Oil wells
Advantages of Submersible Pumps
- Efficient because they push fluid rather than pull it
- No priming required
- Reduced cavitation issues
