PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Industrial Submersible Propeller Pump
The operation of submersible pumps is similar to that of electric submersible centrifugal pumps. An enclosed electric motor powers the pump as the fluid’s kinetic energy rises. The fluid is subsequently lifted through the pump by this energy’s partial conversion to pressure. The design uses a vertical shaft to rotate the impellers and pressurise fluid. Using mechanical seals is necessary to prevent the electric motor from malfunctioning as the entire unit is submerged in the fluid.
