Positive Displacement Pumps This allows for flexibility in system layout and eliminates the need for suction priming systems. Air operated diaphragm pumps self-prime by creating a pressure differential in the diaphragm chamber – which draws in air and pulls the … Continue reading →

Positive Displacement Pumps Avoid failures and maintenance costs by ensuring your centrifugal pumps are always primed before operating. Whilst, positive displacement pumps, like air operated diaphragm pumps are self-priming. How do you prime a diaphragm water pump? To solve this … Continue reading →

A Monoblock Pump is a mechanical device in which a common shaft contains the rotating parts.Mono means single, as its name suggests Monoblock Horizontal Multistage Pump is a non-self-priming centrifugal pump. This means that the Pump unit is rigidly connected … Continue reading →

As the air is evacuated from the pump, it generates a vacuum in the suction pipe, which after a short period of time (dependent on the suction pipe size, static lift, and any air leakage) should prime the pump, and … Continue reading →

A submersible pump, also called an electric submersible pump, is a pump that can be fully submerged in water. The motor is hermetically sealed and close-coupled to the body of the pump. A submersible pump pushes water to the surface … Continue reading →

How do I know if my water pressure switch is bad? Here are some tell-tale signs that your pressure switch is beginning to fail: Your water pressure is at or above the cut-out pressure, yet the pump doesn’t turn off. … Continue reading →

Boreholes that are only metres apart can have completely different water levels and delivery capabilities. But, if you and your neighbour are pumping from the same aquifer, over-pumping your borehole could cause their borehole to dry up. What happens if … Continue reading →

The impellers of a submersible pump will quickly begin to melt and fuse together when the water level drops below the intake screen of the pump. Running without water even one time can cause the pump to lock up or … Continue reading →

Limitations With Curtain Fabrics Made-to-measure Roman blinds are available up to a maximum width of 300cms (118”). As this width requires more than one width of curtain fabric it will have neat joins, with the pattern matched where necessary, to … Continue reading →

manufacturers in the U.S. – General Electric, Honeywell, and White-Rodgers. These companies reported that they phased-out the manufacture and sale of mercury-added thermostats in October 2009. Since 2001, many states have passed legislation restricting the sale of mercury-added thermostats. Do … Continue reading →
