The vertical discharge riser pipework should be sized to ensure a minimum flow velocity of 1.5 metres per second during the cleaning-cycle as levels approach the bottom water level stop-point.
By following a combination of good inlet configuration, well construction, pump selection & control you’ll be able to improve your designs, reduce blockages and improve efficiency. This will ensure long pump life and less service cost, resulting in lowest possible Life Cycle Costs (LCC).
Hidrostal always recommend that we are consulted before pump selection and system design.
Your pump can be configured in PumpSelector. Training in pump design and use of PumpSelector is highly recommended before getting involved in designing your own pumps.
The PumpSelector can be used when you have charted system basics.
Enter the flow rate, delivery head, speed control and other criteria to get a list of all pumps suitable for your application. For each pump, a PDF document can be generated containing a power curve and other important specifications.
