Submersible Pumps are electrically driven motors that convert the electric energy into kinetic energy of the fluid and make it move. What makes these stand out is the fact that these pumps always function when completely submerged in fluid.
WHAT DO HIGH-PRESSURE PUMPS
Submersible water pumps are highly regarded as the go-to solution for all your fluid-flow problems. Electric Submersible Pumps, or ESPs come with two major advantages:
- ESPs do not cavitate like jet pumps do as they are immersed in a fluid. This immersion means no altering heights and a reliable pump structure
- The pulling action of the fluid in the pump is replaced by pushing, saving considerable energy than self-priming pumps. This makes energy as well as cost-efficient.
- The motor is protected from mechanical failures and entry of water within the pump casing. This increases its life and gives you peace of mind.
SUBMERSIBLE WATER PUMPS ARE NOT JUST FOR AQUARIUMS!
With a fair share of benefits, here are the major disadvantages of the ESPs:
- With time, the sealing of the pump cavity can become weaker, causing great damage to the motor.
- There is no one-size-fits-all solution in submersible pumps. There is light and heavy industrial pumping. While light pumping is single stage pumping action like submersible water pumps for aquariums and sewage removal, multiple-staged heavy pumping too, that includes underground pumping like water or oil reserves.
VERSATILITY
In all their usages, you can observe that ESPs’ actions are defined by removing fluid from a bounded area. Here are some examples of where you can find an ESP:
- Pumping underground oil into holding/treatment tanks
- Removing sewage from tanks
- Pumping out water from mines
- Slurry and water removal from a flooded construction site
- Irrigation
- Retrieving bore water
- Submersible water pumps for aquariums
MAINTENANCE
Just like any piece of machinery, these high pressure pumps in Australia need regular maintenance and repair for efficient performance and longer life. Follow these best practices and act immediately:
- Conduct weekly pump-output checkup
- See if the water is leaking
- All the valves, cables and seals should be in a healthy state. Diminishing seals will let the water in and damage the motor.
Your high-pressure pumps in Australia may overheat if not immersed completely in the fluid.
