How to choose the submersible well pump?
 

In this website you will find the best range of submersible electric pumps for wells on the market. Below our guide for the correct choice of your electric well pump and of all the other necessary components.

Choosing the right electric pump for your well is not simplistic but just a "drop of common sense" and you're done. There are many reports on water collection from wells. This short guide does not want to replace the opinion of an expert but wants to give an orientation to the choice of the submersible electric pump best suited to your well.

Never forget these 3 factors:

1)Well flow rate (maximum flow rate for drawing water from the well)

2)Energy parameters (Maximum energy supplied by the distributor or generator)

3)Costs (The more powerful the system and the more the price increases)


When an electric pump does not work anymore, look at the plate to base on choosing a pump with the same parameters. But let's make sure to install a submersible pump that is suitable for your needs. Was the flow of the previous electric pump satisfactory? Another important question concerns the use for which the submersible pump is intended.


Uses of Submersible Pumps

1)Pressurization of the water system (increase and maintain the pressure inside the system);
2)Filling a tank;
3)Irrigation.

Filling a tank with a submersible pump
 

It is one of the simplest applications. Taking the water from the well to make it flow into a tank and then distribute it by fall, with a pump or through a pressurization unit to the water system.

In this case you will need to communicate the following information:

• power supply - example 230 Volts single-phase (domestic power supply)

• water needed - example 50 liters per minute *

• well depth (from the free surface of the water) - example 35 meters

• altitude (difference in height from the pit to the lowest point) - example 10 meters

• diameter and type of piping between the submersible pump and the highest point - example 32mm PE PN10AD

• distance between the submersible pump and the highest point - example 65 meters

• type of use - example filling tank, direct irrigation with gardening hose etc

The ideal model is the 4GS07M-4OS single-phase Lowara 1 HP.

Good solution to pump water with suspended sand
 

The ideal solution for pumping well water with suspended sand are the X-Power watercooled ecological submersible pumps. They are the only pumps able to pump water from deep wells with sand and solid contents up to 450 g/m.cube. They also withstand dry running (due to an accidental lack of water). They are also ecological as they are cooled with water and lubricated by a mixture of aqua and natural glycol.

Submersible pump to be installed inside a tank

To select the right pump, you need the value of the quota and the number of home appliances. The pumps that are used inside the tanks are self-cooled monoblock watercooled submersible pumps. If you want to install a submersible pump with separate motor and pump, you must equip the pump with a special cooling system: See submersible pumps installation inside the tank.
 

Ultimately...

Ultimately it is important to distinguish whether a pump is used for: to fill a tank, to pressurize a plant, or to irrigate. For example, using the pump to fill a tank needs lower powers than the powers required for boosting.

Lifting system for well with submersible pump and single-phase inverter
 

The water passage inverter is characterized by the ease of installation and the pressure detection system by transducer. The electric pump is managed by the inverter which controls the submerged pump when the taps are opened and closed (by modulating the power according to actual needs, you will save from 30% to 50% of electricity per year).
