Submersible Top Suction Pump

Advantages of the Submersible Top Suction pump configuration

• Twin Volute Discharge Design: Utilising this principle all radial forces are balanced out in the volute, which results in the minimum load on the bearings – increasing the bearing life as well as enabling a more efficient pumping capability.
• Lifting bracket: Allows lowering of the pump while in operation
• “Run Dry”: The failure of submersible pumps as a result of insufficient cooling has been solved by having the stator housing filled with oil which dissipates heat away from the winding thus enabling the HIPPO Submersible pump to run dry continuously. The design allows for fully, partial and non-submerged conditions.
• Angular Contact Bearings: Mounted back-to-back which restricts all axial movement should the pump be surging
• Oiled filled Motor housing: Lubricates the bearings and mechanical seals and dissipates the heat away from the winding
• Double Mechanical Seals: With moisture detector operate at submergence presure
• Moisture Detection: Should the mechanical seals fail, a moisture detector which is built into the pump will cut the power supply to the pump thus eliminating damage to the winding
• Stator Motor: Designed to operate at any supply voltage and is vacuum impregnated.
• Cantilever shaft: Seperates the motor from the pump end resulting in the mechanical seal operating at submergence pressure and not at discharge presure.
