Open Well Submersible Pump

Open-well submersible pumps: An efficient water management system

Open-well submersible pumps are designed to be dropped and fitted to the bottom of an open well for an efficient water management system. Water is an important source for both life and agriculture. So, having an efficient water management system is required for efficiency and reliability. Other pumps are installed outside the water source but directly in the well to push water upward to the surface. Due to its complete submersion into the water, it provides efficient performance with a reduction in noise and no extra maintenance.  

Features 

• Submerged Operation

These pumps are designed to operate underwater to improve efficiency and prevent overheating. The surrounding water helps to cool off the pump and works to perform without overheating. 

• Energy Efficiency

It’s more efficient than surface pumps to deliver performance in agriculture, industries, and residential water requirements. It consumes less power than any other pump to function. 

• Quiet Operation

It works in submerged water and operates perfectly for residential people without any noise. 

• Self-Priming

It works in a submerged position, eliminating priming requirements like other pumps. 

• Durable Construction

It’s designed with corrosion-resistant materials, to work easily in harsh conditions. It’s durable to function and work for every type of material involved in water. 

Applications

• Agriculture

In the case of agriculture, it is purposefully used for irrigating fields, gardens, and plantations. It helps to distribute the liquid fertilizers and pesticides uniformly in the field. 

• Domestic Use

In case of domestic use, it supplies water to houses from wells and tanks. It’s used to make a direct link of water connections from wells or tanks to houses without the need for a water supply connection. It’s used for watering plants in gardens and lawns. 

• Industrial Applications

In Industrial applications, it fulfills the demand cycle of water circulation for different processes. It’s used in cooling towers to pump up water and many other applications. It directly supplies water to companies in outward areas where the water supply connection is limited. 

• Commercial Use

The commercial buildings, hotels, and office complexes used the water from the open well submersible pump. It works within many hotels to supply water in the garden and pool area. In firefighting systems, it’s used in fire hydrant systems for water supply.  

• Construction

Construction sites require lots of water to develop and work on sites. It allows the connection of water to the top level of buildings at the time of development of the site. It helps for accessibility of water to an outward area of the city. 

• Municipal corporation activities

In case of flood, the municipal team used an open well submersible pump to drain excess water during floods. It’s used in water treatment plants for treating contaminated water and distributed systems. It helps to clean and maintain the city's requirements. 

Advantages

• High Efficiency

Open-well submarine pumps are proven more efficient than other pumps. It operates directly in the water source and doesn’t require any extra piping into the premises. 

• Self-priming

It’s designed to operate in submerged water, so it doesn't require priming to function. It’s easier to use and maintain without much effort to work. In the case of priming in other pumps, it takes a lot of time and is less efficient. So, it’s the self-priming capability that allows it to work more efficiently. 

• Generate Low Noise

It’s suitable for residential areas, where it operates with little noise. Its functioning allows it to work underwater which produces little noise. 

• Consistent Water Supply

It’s a reliable source of water, which is an ideal system for irrigation, domestic, and industrial use. It makes the direct connection of water from wells or tanks to provide a consistent water supply. 

• Cost-Effective

It costs nothing compared to its operations. It has lower installation and maintenance costs as compared with other ground pumps. Its capacity is quite worth the cost of purchasing. 

• Flexible 

It’s suitable for many applications, from agriculture irrigation to domestic water supply and industrial use to municipal corporations.  

• Energy Efficient

It’s more energy-efficient than other types of pumps to push water upward to the surface. It has lower operational costs. 

• Improved Water Quality

Due to being submerged, it has a lower level of contaminants in the supply of water. Its operational cost is nothing compared to the quality of water. 

• Automatic Operation

Its models come with automatic control features to pump water on and off based on the level of water, providing efficiency and convenience. 

Installation of open well submersible pump

1. Early preparation

• Do a proper inspection of the well for cleanliness.
• Confirm that the power supply is suitable with voltage and phase.
• Check all protective protocols.

2. Assembling

• Connect the motor and pump.
• Install the power cable for installing the pump.

3. Position the Pump

• Gently put the pump in position without any damage. 
• Make its position with efficient water draw and avoid sediment intake.

4. Electrical Connections
 

Connect the pump to the control panel and do all electrical connections perfectly. 
 

5. Testing
 

After installation, do proper tests for the right operations and ensure leaks or electrical issues. Do complete verification for the rate of flow and pressure.

Maintenance of open well submersible pump
 

• Regular Inspection: Regularly inspect the pump and cable for any sign of damage like corrosion or wear and tear. 

• Cleaning: Proper cleaning of the pump from sediment and debris for the proper performance of the pumps.

• Electrical Maintenance: Check the connection and control panel for any malfunctioning components. 

• Lubrication: Proper lubrication of the pump part is required with regular directed intervals. 

• Regular monitoring: Regularly monitor the flow rate, pressure, noise, and vibration for efficient operation.
