As an important fluid conveying equipment, submersible vertical turbine pumps are widely used in many industries such as chemical, petroleum, and water treatment. Its unique design allows the pump body to be directly immersed in the liquid, and the impeller driven by the motor can effectively extract and convey various types of liquids, including high-viscosity fluids and mixtures containing solid particles.

The installation of submersible vertical turbine pumps is key to ensuring their normal operation and extended service life. Here are some important installation considerations:

1. Choose the right location:

Make sure the installation position of the pump is stable, level, and avoid vibration sources.

Avoid installation in humid, corrosive or high temperature environments.

2. Water inlet conditions:

Make sure the water inlet of the submersible vertical turbine pump is below the liquid surface to avoid inhaling air.

The water inlet pipe should be as short and straight as possible to reduce the resistance to liquid flow.

3. Drainage system:

Check the drainage pipe and its connection to ensure there is no leakage.

The drainage height should meet the liquid level requirements to avoid overloading the pump.

4. Electrical wiring:

Make sure the power supply voltage matches the rated voltage of the pump and select the appropriate cable.

Check whether the cable connection is firm and insulate well to avoid short circuit.

5. Seal check:

Ensure that there is no leakage in all seals and connections, and check regularly whether they need to be replaced.

6. Lubrication and cooling:

Add oil to the pump's lubrication system according to the manufacturer's requirements.

Check whether the liquid can provide sufficient cooling for the pump to avoid overheating.

Trial run:

Before formal use, conduct a trial run to observe the working status of the pump.

Check for abnormal noise, vibration and temperature changes.

Trial run steps

The trial run of the submersible vertical turbine pump is an important step to ensure its normal operation. The following are the key steps and precautions for the trial run:

1. Check the installation:

Before the trial run, carefully check the installation of the pump, confirm that all connections (power supply, water inlet, drainage, etc.) are firm, and there is no water leakage or leakage.

2. Filling liquid:

Make sure the water inlet of the pump is immersed in the pump liquid to avoid idling. The liquid should be high enough to ensure the normal suction of the pump.

3. Preparation before starting:

Confirm the valve status of the pump. The water inlet valve should be open, and the drain valve should also be moderately open to allow liquid to flow out.

4. Start the pump:

Start the pump slowly and observe the operation of the motor to ensure that its clockwise or counterclockwise direction is consistent with the design direction of the pump.

Observe the operating status:

Flow and pressure: Ensure that the flow and pressure are as expected.

Noise and vibration: Excessive noise or vibration may indicate a pump failure.

Temperature: Check the temperature of the pump to avoid overheating.

Monitor the operation of the pump, including:

Check for leaks:

Check the various connections and seals of the pump for leaks to ensure good sealing.

Operation time observation:

It is usually recommended that the trial run lasts for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Observe the stability and working status of the pump and take note of any abnormalities.

Stop the pump and check:

After the trial run, stop the pump safely, check all connections for leaks, and record the relevant data of the trial run.

Precautions

Follow the manufacturer's recommendations: Before the trial run, read the pump manual carefully and follow the operating instructions provided by the manufacturer.

Safety first: Wear necessary personal protective equipment, including gloves and goggles, to ensure a safe operating environment.

Keep in touch: During the trial run, ensure that there are professionals on site to handle any problems that may arise in a timely manner.

After the trial run

After completing the trial run, it is recommended to conduct a comprehensive inspection and record the operating data and problems found in order to make adjustments and optimizations.
