How to select the right water pumps

First we will tell you the basic information for choosing the right water pumps..

Determining the appropriate electric pump is one of the most important essentials to avoid losing it through malfunctions or a malfunction in the pumping system. Water pumps are made for a specific use, and when they operate otherwise, they end up burning daylight and what's around them as well.

How to select suitable water pumps, and what information should you know?

Liquid type

There are many different types of liquids, but electric pumps were not suitable to work with them. When talking about these pumps, we can divide these liquids into pure water, which is the clean water that most pumps are designed to work with (drinking water, sea water, chlorinated water, etc.); Unclean water (sewage), which is water that has been used before and includes solid materials and often comes from septic tanks and the like.

Installation location

Knowing where to install will inform what type of water pump to select. For example: If the water is extracted from wells, then choosing a submersible pump will be the ideal choice. Its diameter will be determined by the well. Also, when the water comes from a well, river, or lake, we will specify the surface pump. Also, when the pump is higher than the water level to be pumped, in this case the pumps pump by suction. Or in pregnancy if the pump is at the same water level or lower than the water we want to pump.

caudal

In simple terms, we have to know the meaning of flow, which is the amount of water that we will move in a specific period, and it is expressed in terms of (liters / minute). For example: When we have a tank of 1100 liters and it was filled within 30 minutes. Calculate 1100 liters/30 minutes, then you will get the flow rate you want to know, which is equivalent to 36.67 liters/minute.

Total dynamic height

The dynamic head sum was obtained according to the following approach:

Friction losses + discharge height + suction height = total dynamic height

It is possible to identify the suction and discharge lift or driving, and knowing this is very important in determining the losses resulting from friction, and these losses are through the rise of water resulting from this friction through pipes and various obstacles, such as: cuts, elbows, and valves.
