Downhole pumps device and principle of operation. The device and types of centrifugal pumps for a well

Consider the example of the pump "Aquarius". This is a practical, simply arranged and the most appropriate in the category "price-quality" device for a borehole pump. It consists of two parts: the pump and electric motor... The pump is driven by centrifugal force.

To calculate the pump power for water wells, you can use the pump power calculator for water wells.

The pump consists of a shaft with blades, impellers and drive rings, passing through the shell. Parts of the product are held in place by a cover with internal thread... When the device is turned on, the wheels spin, create a centrifugal force that pumps the liquid filling interior shell.

The motor consists of a stator, a rotor, two ball bearings that run in oil. The automatics are manufactured by the German manufacturer Thermik. It is trouble-free, independently monitors the operation of the engine and protects it if you have to work at the limit. In order to control the operation of the pump, there is a remote control device connected to the power supply cable. This pump is designed to supply water from a depth of 1 to 20 m, with the smallest permissible borehole diameter of 120 mm. It is possible to adjust the pressure of the water supplied by the pump using a special valve located at the end of the outlet hose. The device is suitable for lifting water from 360 liters to 12 cubic meters per hour, hose diameter must be larger than ¾ inch. Considering working qualities borehole pump devices, it is possible to use it to pump water from wells, natural reservoirs, other reservoirs, wells.

Connection and service of a borehole pump.

Before lowering it into the well, the "Aquarius" pump must be prepared:

The discharge pipe must be connected. The type of pipe to be connected depends on the needs for which the "Aquarius" pump is planned to be used. You can use a hose for irrigation if it will be used for irrigation or water intake, or if it is planned to use it for work in tandem with a hydraulic accumulator in a stationary installation - a metal or plastic pipe.

Installation of a non-return valve. When connecting a pump that operates in a closed pressure water supply system, it is imperative to connect check valve... The check valve is not installed during production. There are two connection methods: by tapping into the pipe at a distance of less than 1 m from the outlet pipe or by installing the valve directly into the pipe. According to experts, the best choice there will be a valve with a brass seat.

Attachment of the cable. The cable is passed through special slots on the body and is securely fixed. The cable can be used from nylon and steel. It is strictly forbidden to lift or lower the pump by the wire. From practical experience it follows that it is best to fix the wire in the discharge pipe using the brackets intended for this - this will facilitate lowering and lifting of the device and practically exclude the possibility of mechanical damage. After that, the borehole pump device is connected to the outlet.

The device is gently lowered into the well under strict control over the tension of the pressure hose and electrical cord. The device is attached to the desired depth with a cable. The pump can be used.

Even taking into account the high reliability of the "Vodoley" pump and the fact that it can operate without interruption for many years, it is recommended to take it out of the well twice a year and inspect it for breakdowns. Examine it from the outside. It is unacceptable for the engine axle to jam during rotation, which should be light and soft. In the event that no axle jams are detected and the device continuously pumps water under the required pressure, it should be installed in its place.

If you have any concerns about the correct operation of the device, you must continue the examination. provides for the possibility of systematic inspection, and, if necessary, replacement of rotation bearings. It is recommended to inspect the condition of these parts, the oil seal and check the oil level. If it is necessary to change the oil seals and bearings, add oil to the desired level. It is worth looking at the motor winding for damage or signs of overheating. Dismantling the engine is a delicate matter: after all, the insulation of the wire becomes brittle and easily damaged after some time. The pumping part does not need special maintenance, but, with a strong decrease in the pressure of the apparatus, it would not hurt to change the impellers - perhaps the reason is their wear.

Cleaning and minor repairs of the borehole pump.

There are times when borehole pump device does not rotate and its owner needs to disassemble the pump. Please note: the device does not have an internal filter, and the mesh that catches stones and coarse sand is attached from the outside between the engine and the pumping part. For this reason, cessation of rotation is usually caused by breakage or clogging of the impellers. Not a large blockage, it is possible to try to eliminate it yourself.

You need to clean it in several stages:

Remove the protective mesh. In new models, it is secured with a special clip that can be opened by prying it off with a screwdriver or lightly pressing in the middle. On old ones - there are two ordinary bolts that can be easily unscrewed

On wide pump models it is also possible to remove the cable duct - a small metal groove that protects the cord from defects.

The motor can be dismantled and disconnected from the pumping part by unscrewing the four bolts with a 10 spanner. After that it is necessary to remove the couplings that direct the force of the motor to the pump.

The disassembled apparatus is carefully placed on a horizontal surface. It is very important not to damage the cord.

Next, you need to turn the shaft with a 12 head or a socket wrench, be sure to support the upper part of the apparatus. When the shaft moves, it is necessary to supply a stream of water to the pumping part in order to remove parts from there due to which the device is jammed. After making sure that the shaft can rotate, we carefully wash the pump, and assemble it in the reverse order.

If it turns out that the impellers are broken, disassembly of the pumping part is necessary. Entrust these works to the service personnel, since in this case it is necessary to replace the broken parts.

There are often cases when the owner of the pump, noticing that the axle in the pumping part does not rotate, decides that the bearing is stuck. But in the pumping part there is one sleeve bearing and, accordingly, cannot jam. This is where the impeller problem arose and it is best to replace them. If you have spare parts, you can try to fix the pump yourself. For this you need:

  • Rest against the brass part of the bottom of the device and with force squeeze the shell from below and from above.
  • Using narrow-teeth, remove the retaining ring. The ring is in a special groove and will loosen if you squeeze the shell hard.
  • Remove all impellers one by one, then remove the thrust cover with bearing.
  • Eliminate the cause of the jam and put the parts in the reverse order.

It should be borne in mind that in service centers there is a special press, with the help of which the pump is disassembled and assembled. Without such a press, at home, it is difficult to do this, and maybe impossible.

The presence of an autonomous water supply system in a summer cottage or in a private house is a huge plus in their arrangement. The owner does not depend on pumping stations- he has his own. There are many installations for pumping water: surface, deep well pumps. If you have doubts about which one to choose, see how the installation is done by hand (installation using the example of a grundfos pump).

Varieties of pumps and their classification

The main function of the submersible pump is to extract the water mass from the bowels of the earth and transport it to the consumer in living quarters or outbuildings (kitchen, shower, toilet). Also, with its help, watering of the site or greenhouse is carried out, and the filling of reserve tanks.

Submersible pumps have a small cylindrical casing. They practically do not take up space on the site. There are 2 types of these pumps:

  1. Industrial. Used by businesses. Due to the high power, they can lift water from a depth of up to 100 meters. They have impressive dimensions.
  2. Household. Used in private homes or summer cottages, can be installed independently, are compact and relatively powerful.

Advice. Please consult a specialist before installation. The power of the selected pump will depend on the depth of the water.

Also, pumps differ in the way they are installed.

  1. Submersible pump. The device is completely immersed in water, a pressure hose is withdrawn from it, with the help of which it is connected to the water supply.
  2. Surface pump. The device is located outside the water surface, 2 hoses are withdrawn from it: pressure (supplies water to the water supply system) and suction (ensures the suction of liquid into the pumping unit).

In addition to the difference in the field of application and the installation scheme of the pumps, there is also a classification by the type of design and the principle of operation:

Centrifugal pumps. Used at any time of the year. The hydraulic mechanism is applied. The water supply is carried out by rotating the wheels located near the engine. The working part (wheels) is made of dense plastic or of stainless steel, which ensures a low weight of the structure. Resistant to abrasives (sand and clay). The installation of this equipment requires a filter rough cleaning water from sand particles and stones. It is cooled by the water passing through the body, therefore it is installed according to the recessed principle. These pumps are equipped with a temperature sensor that automatically turns off the device in case of overheating. The only drawback of the equipment is its high cost, compared to the vortex one.

Advice. If you plan to live year-round in country house then it is better to choose a centrifugal pump.

Vortex or vibration pumps. Such equipment is not designed to supply a large number water. They are used only in shallow wells. Calculated for seasonal water consumption. The operation of the mechanism is carried out due to high-frequency vibrations that set in motion a mechanical piston, which ensures the suction of water into the apparatus. The advantages of this kind of equipment are low cost, compact dimensions, and minimal energy consumption. Minuses - destroys the walls of the well due to prolonged vibration exposure, low power and poor performance.

Advice. To prevent the vortex pump from destroying the walls of the well, when it is installed, rubber rings are put on the body.

Depth-type pumping unit device

In order to properly carry out the installation pumping equipment, you need to know which pump consists of what, how it assembles and works.

The main parts of the device are the engine and the pumping part. The engine is located in the lower part of the housing, when installed Special attention draws on its waterproofing. The pumping part is a multistage mechanism that includes impellers, vane branches and a working shaft that drives them.

The product is cooled with the pumped-out water. External cooling occurs due to the passage of water masses between the pump casing and the walls of the well. Internal - when water flows directly through the unit.

Important! If the installation pumping unit to the bottom or walls of the drilled well is not possible, then the well is equipped with asbestos pipes.

Among all water pumping devices, submersible pumps are the most popular. They have a number of advantages over other units:

  • noiselessness of work;
  • no interruptions in the supply of water;
  • easy and quick installation;
  • water intake at great depths;
  • narrow cylindrical body shape;
  • protection against engine overheating;
  • made of anti-corrosion materials.

Advice. In order to choose any pump, it is necessary to take into account the shape and depth of the well. Subsequently, you will not waste time, effort and money on the installation of additional equipment.

In order to choose the right submersible pump, the following data must be taken into account:

  • water consumption at each point of water intake and throughout the entire site in total;
  • diameter and depth of the drilled well;
  • geological data of the land plot (type of soil, depth of groundwater, etc.);
  • the presence of electricity supply sources on the site.

The choice of a pump directly depends on the depth of the well and the occurrence of groundwater. If the aquifer is at a depth of 10 m or more, then you should choose a submersible pump. When purchasing a pump, choose a device with a capacity slightly exceeding the required one: later you can improve the water supply system without having to replace the water pumping device.

How the pumping device depends on the depth of the well

To select a pump, you need to look at the passport data of the well, all its parameters are indicated there. If you do not know the depth of the well, then you need to make measurements. Tie a weight to a dry (!!!) rope and lower it into the hole, remove the rope and use the wet mark to determine the distance from the ground to the water level in the well. By lowering the rope deeper, the depth of the hole can also be determined.

When purchasing a pump, be sure to read the instructions and the product passport. These documents indicate the pump power depending on the depth of the well.

  1. 30-60 meters. Installation of pumps in such conditions is carried out directly into the well. During installation, 2-3 check valves are additionally installed so that the raised water does not go back. Centrifugal pumps equipped with thermal protection are installed in such wells. The device is inserted into the well with the help of special equipment and fixed with a cable on the surface of the earth.
  2. 10-20 meters. When water is found at medium and shallow depths, a surface pump can be used, not a submersible pump. Such an apparatus is installed far from the source, and water is taken from it with the help of a hose.

Installation of a submersible device using the example of a GRUNDFOS submersible pump (grundfos)

Submersible pumps from Grandfos (grundfos) are equipped with submersible motors. Quiet operation of the engine is ensured by installed plain bearings lubricated with a special liquid anti-corrosion grease. The electrical part of the pump is filled with liquid, the maximum freezing point of which is -20 ° C and below. In order for the engine to work properly, it is necessary to constantly monitor the level of the fluid being filled in it. It is recommended to top up with SML-2 liquid only from Grunfos. To fill in an electric motor, use the following algorithm:

  1. Make sure that the motor is installed in a vertical position with a deviation of 10-12 °.
  2. Unscrew the plug with a screwdriver.
  3. Use a syringe to fill the engine with fluid.
  4. Distribute the liquid evenly over the surface of the engine capsule by rocking the device, the collected air will come out to the surface.
  5. Tighten the screw plug as tight as possible to prevent spillage.
  6. Place the motor in the pump housing.

In order for the pump motor to cool freely, it is necessary to control the temperature of the filled liquid and minimum value water flow rate. To ensure free convection, the width of the well pipe is made 4-6 cm larger diameter pump housing.

Important! Free convection of the motor is not permitted when deposits form on the pump housing.

Before installing the pump, make sure that it is disconnected from the mains after a possible check and that it cannot be accidentally turned on. All technical data of the product are described in the passport in the form of a table, there are demolished power, electricity consumption, supply voltage value of "cosine phi", etc.

Grudfos pumps (grundfos) are equipped with an internal thermal relay, which is triggered when the installation overheats, turning off the power to the pump. They do not need additional protection.

Installation of a deep-well pump Grundfos (grundfos) is performed as follows:

  1. A check valve is installed on the pump branch pipe. Water will not drain after power off.
    A cup-shaped coarse filter is mounted on the suction pipe. It will protect the working pump chamber from siltation.
  2. After installing the check valve, a discharge pipe is installed, through which water will be supplied upward.
  3. The power cable in the waterproofing is passed through the injection hose, it is fastened with clips.
  4. In the brackets provided on the upper part of the stainless housing, polymer twine is passed, which will further hold the pump in the well.
  5. The device, ready for launch, is lowered into the well shaft. Only the twine serves as a support, the bundle of the cable with the hose does not bear any load.
  6. The rope is fixed on the bracket, which is located on the outside casing.

Please note that a professional person will help you choose the correct installation algorithm. If you want to do the installation yourself, consult a wizard to avoid mistakes.

Replacement and repair of a deep-well pump

Even the most reliable system wears out and may malfunction. To provide further work device, it must be dismantled and replaced or repaired. This procedure is done like this:

  1. Disconnect the power supply and water supply system from the pump unit.
  2. Remove the pump from the well. To do this, you need to use the help of comrades, since this procedure involves a lot of physical labor.
  3. Disconnect the non-return valve and the coarse filter located upstream of the pump.
  4. Diagnose the product.
  5. Replace or repair defective parts.
  6. Carefully inspect all fittings, hoses and cables for damage.
  7. Clean the filter or replace it.
  8. Collect pumping device and install it on the workplace.

When replacing the device, use new resin straps and filters.

As you can see, the installation and dismantling of the deep pumping unit can be done independently. The main thing is to choose the right device and select the pump power for the appropriate depth of the well.

Uninterrupted water supply to a house from a well or well is impossible without the use of highly efficient pumping equipment. If you are faced with the task of raising water from a source from a depth of more than 8 meters, as well as providing a high water pressure in the house, pay attention to submersible models. With their help, you are not only guaranteed to provide the household clean water, but if necessary, you can pump out water from a flooded basement, garage, cesspool.

Varieties of submersible pumps for water

Before making the choice of equipment, you must clearly define the purpose for which it will be used. The characteristics and cost of the unit will depend on this.

Types of submersible pumps:

- well... Used in small private houses and summer cottages, where pumping is required pure water from wells or shallow wells. Well models do not sink to the bottom of the source in order to avoid sediment raising and filter clogging;
- downhole... This equipment has a small diameter and cylindrical shape, due to which it can be placed inside the well to a considerable depth. Choice downhole models should be done depending on parameters such as:

  • immersion depth,
  • power,
  • performance,
  • water supply height,
  • case diameter,
  • the material from which the body is made;
  • length of the power cord.

When choosing equipment, special attention should be paid to the diameter of the case. To avoid pump jamming in the well, purchase a device with a diameter 10-12 mm less than the casing section.

- drainage... This device is used to pump out contaminated water from cellars, basements, pits, etc. drain pump it is possible to effectively solve the problem of flooding during the spring snowmelt, heavy precipitation, breakdown of the water supply system, etc. Drainage models are perfect for organizing irrigation and irrigation. The design of the unit allows pumping liquid containing contaminants up to 30 mm in diameter.
-fecal... These devices are designed for pumping liquid from cesspools and septic tanks, removing household waste. Such a pump is cast from drainage models with a higher power and ability to pump water with a high content of contaminants. In most fecal devices, grinders are installed, with the help of which large particles of contaminants are grinded.

Classification of submersible pumps by engine location:

- rod... The motor is located on the surface, separate from the pump itself. Power transmission is via a rod drive;
- rodless... The electric motor is connected to the pump and is in the water. Such units are more popular in comparison with sucker-rod ones.

The diameter of the device can reach 140 mm, however, equipment with a body diameter of 100 mm is most often used for wells and deep wells.

By the principle of operation, submersible models are divided into centrifugal and vibration.

The advantages of vibrating equipment:

Possibility of use in polluted environments;
- low cost;
- wide the lineup.

The disadvantages of these devices include low bandwidth, vibration during operation, low reliability. It is not recommended to install vibration pumps in sandy wells, as their prolonged use can lead to the destruction of the water intake walls.

The device and principle of operation of a submersible centrifugal pump

The design of centrifugal equipment provides for the following elements:

Centrifugal device;
- submersible electric motor;
- automation;
- water-lifting pipeline.

Mounting submersible pump provides for the installation of a pressure gauge, a three-way valve and a support device at the wellhead or well. Asynchronous units with a squirrel-cage rotor act as electric motors. The stator winding is made of copper and is wire-insulated. Bearings are most often made of PCB or Linofol. The thrust bearing assembly must be able to support the rotor weight and thrust. To prevent "dry" operation, such an addition is installed as float switch, which will automatically turn off the device in the event of a drop of water in the source to a critical level.

Depending on the type, the equipment can be equipped with the following types of impellers:

With cast-type spatula taps;
- closed type;
- with cylindrical discs and tubes.

Modern pumping equipment for wells is a device designed for high and continuous loads. The unit is placed in a well or well on a backwater that is located at a distance of at least 1 meter (with a minimum water level in the source), powerful pumps should be installed at a distance of at least 6 meters. Cooling of the engine is carried out for the network of the pumped water.

The submersible borehole pump design eliminates intermediate bearings and long borehole shaft, which gives them advantages. Such units can be installed even in intakes with a curved channel. Submersible centrifugal pumps have high efficiency, which makes it possible to use less powerful motors. The presence of multi-stage options allows you to purchase equipment that will create high pressure... The disadvantages of centrifugal models include the complexity of the repair and the relatively high cost. It should be noted that these units are designed to operate in an environment with a pollution level not exceeding 15kg / m3.

To the site and Vacation home water flowed uninterruptedly, it is best to use wells that supply water directly from deep aquifers. The construction of such wells is as simple as possible. They represent a shaft that can reach from a couple of meters to 40 m. In order for the water supply from the well to be carried out without interruption, it is necessary to install special equipment.

A variety of devices are in use, including pumps that can be surface or submersible. Surface are installed above the well, they are designed to work at shallow depths. These devices are good for a well, but it is better not to use them for a deep well, they will definitely not cope with the task at hand. For such sources, deep pumps are used. They are placed inside the well itself below the surface of the water, they can suck water from above or from the bottom. The design of the submersible pump is simple, there are different models on sale. It will not be difficult to find a suitable option for a well.

Features of the deep pump and its characteristics

Design submersible pumps largely depends on the parameters, the principle of operation, the type of engine. This equipment is designed to raise water with sufficient great depth... In everyday life, they are used for wells, wells for sand or limestone. The name itself indicates that the equipment is immersed under the surface of the water mirror, from the device comes a power cable in a protective sheath and a pipe that supplies water upward.

For control, special automatic blocks are used, but they are installed in the caisson. The pump itself is usually equipped with a motor, a built-in filter, water intake can be carried out from the bottom of the equipment or from the top. The first option is more preferable, since with the help of such a device, the well can be cleaned of the mass of sand and silt. It must be remembered that the level of immersion usually does not exceed 20 m from the surface. This is a limit value that is calculated from the ratio of the static and dynamic water levels.

The well device itself may include 2 parts:

  • motor (built-in or external);
  • pumping multistage part.

If the motor is built-in, then it is placed at the bottom to protect it as much as possible from negative impact water. Further, in the upper part of the body there is a drive shaft of the equipment, working guide wheels, special blade branches. The vibrating pump consists of a special glass and a body. There is a vibrator that creates required pressure, and an electric motor. The most difficult element is the vibrator, which provides the water rise. This includes the anchor, rubber damper, and shims.

The shock absorber is compressed during operation, creating the necessary conditions for water intake.

The centrifugal pump is a little more complicated, but its operation is more reliable and durable, which is why many people prefer it. Attention should be paid to the blade outlet, which is attached to the motor. It is on him that the durability and quality of work depend. The bearings provided here are effectively water-cooled, so overheating does not occur. Often the pump has built-in sensors that allow you to immediately stop the operation of the equipment when it starts to flow too large mass sand, the water drops to an unacceptable level. When using pumping equipment for sand wells, it is necessary to provide for the presence of a filter that will protect the mechanism from the suction of abrasive inclusions.

What influences the cost?

The design of the pump has a definite impact on the cost:

  1. Specifications, water supply, performance and power. For downhole equipment it is important how exactly the water will be supplied and under what pressure this will happen.
  2. The type and power of the engine has always been one of the most important values. The more powerful the equipment, the deeper it will be able to lift water, but its cost will also be higher.
  3. With an increase in power, the price rises by 4 thousand rubles for a difference of 0.75-1.5 kW.
  4. Resistant to dirt and sand. It is important to use a pump that will not break if sand is present in the water. Clean sand cannot be distilled by any pump, but there should be protection from it, especially for wells on sand. For limestone springs, this is of great importance does not, but it is important to remember this when choosing. Sand protection is provided by a special built-in filtration system.
  5. Performance has an impact on cost as the pump design is more complex.

Varieties of submersible pumps

The device of submersible pumps largely depends on what type they are. Two groups can be distinguished:

  • by the type of design and location of the engine;
  • according to the principle of operation, i.e. by how exactly water is taken.

When using the pump, it is important to pay attention that the design can be of different types:

  1. Sucker rod pumps are maximally protected from negative impact water. The motor is not located inside the housing, but on a surface, separate from the device. The thrust is transmitted through a special rod drive to the pump.
  2. Rodless pumps have a motor that is attached to the casing and is also in the water. It is this type of pump that is used most often, since it is more convenient to install, although its cost may be higher. A similar unit is used for wells of any type; wells, sewer and drainage networks are often equipped with it.

Such pumps are usually made in the form of a cylinder, the diameter can be up to 140 mm. For suburban wells, units are used with a diameter of 100 mm. Their cost is optimal, the model range is represented quite widely.

Selection of pumps taking into account the principle of operation

The submersible pump can have different design depending on the principle of operation. Vibration and centrifugal pumps are distinguished, which differ in their characteristics. All vibrating borehole pumps that are mounted in a wellbore are distinguished by the following features:

  1. They are resistant to dirt environment, which makes it possible to use it for any type of soil.
  2. The range of devices is diverse.
  3. The cost of the vibrating device is not that high, often electrical cable costs more to the pump than the pump itself.

But there are also a number of disadvantages that should not be forgotten:

  1. The flow capacity of this type of pump is low.
  2. Reliability and durability cannot boast of anything special, the operating life of the vibration pump is short.
  3. The equipment vibrates during operation. This circumstance is one of the most serious, since the wellbore walls can begin to collapse, especially if there is no casing. The unit starts to sway during operation, its body can be damaged. But on the other hand, the cost of the device is low, it is this circumstance that often plays a primary role when choosing equipment for wells.

A centrifugal pump is no less popular today, since it has a high level of efficiency, which makes it possible to purchase a cheaper device with a slightly lower power level. Centrifugal pumps can be multistage. This allows water to be pumped at more high level pressure, the performance of such devices is an order of magnitude higher.

Maintenance of the equipment is simple, as is the use, but it is devices of this type that are sensitive to contamination, therefore it is necessary to use additional filters. The pollution rate for a centrifugal pump is up to 150 g / cubic meter of liquid, but there are also special pumps that can operate with contamination of 20 kg / cubic meter. The cost of this equipment is high; such pumps are not used for small wells.

The use of a submersible pump for a well involves a careful selection of the device. It should be understood what exactly the pump is, what features of its operation are characteristic. All submersible pumps that are used today can be divided into centrifugal and vibration, they may differ in other ways.

Many owners of summer cottages and private farms that are not connected to a centralized water supply are not by hearsay familiar with the problem of supplying water to their home and personal plot.

The "Kid" submersible pump will help to partially solve it, which, although not a powerful device capable of pumping water from artesian wells, will quite cope with the supply of water from wells, shallow wells and open reservoirs.

For those who are just going to equip autonomous water supply, as well as users of pumping equipment, it will be useful to learn about the device, the principle of operation and the rules for operating the unit. We will describe in detail how to install the "Kid" in the well and provide it smooth operation.

Submersible pumps of the Malysh series are produced by the Russian company Livgidromash, which has a history of nearly seventy years. During this time, more than three million copies of various pumping equipment came off the assembly line of the plant.

The use of a filter will not only extend the life of the unit, but will also ensure the flow of better quality water purified from any impurities.

Maintenance of pumps Kid

In order for the pump to serve for a long time and properly, it is necessary to observe the operating and storage conditions of the equipment recommended by the manufacturer. In this case, the manufacturer guarantees its normal operation for two years. The pump does not require complex maintenance and care, and simple rules it will not be difficult to complete.

After the first installation of the device in the well, you need to let it work for one or two hours, and then remove and carefully inspect the case and components for detecting malfunctions. If everything is normal, then the vibration pump can be put in place and used further, leaving it immersed in water for a long time.

Periodically, at least once every three months, and if possible, then every hundred hours of operation, the unit must also be inspected. If, at the same time, traces of friction are found on the body, it means that it was incorrectly installed and, during operation, came into contact with the walls of the water intake.

To avoid this, you need to align it and put an additional rubber ring on the body.

If the inlets are clogged, they must be carefully cleaned without damaging the rubber valve. For cleaning, it is best to use a tool with a blunt end.

If the pump is not used in winter, it must be taken out of the well, rinsed and dried well. When storing the unit, place it away from heating appliances, and also to protect against direct sun rays.

If, following the manufacturer's recommendations, a breakdown occurs due to reasons beyond the control of the user, the pump should be taken to service center... The list of popular breakdowns of the "Kid" pump and the ways of their elimination are described in.

The submersible pump "Kid" is a convenient and inexpensive household appliance, easy to use and easy to maintain. Of course, due to its small capacity, it is not able to provide a full-fledged water supply to a private house, and, in fact, no one sets such tasks for it.

An inexpensive vibrator perfect for seasonal use. He will become a real assistant in summer cottages. So, with the help of "Kid" you can organize watering of plants and water supply from wells, wells or open reservoirs.
