Planning information for axially split casing pumps in transport lines

Many small changes can generate a huge impact, and the main aims of this brochure are to increase the overall efficiency of pumping stations employing axially split casing pumps worldwide while reducing energy consumption, cutting CO₂ emissions and lowering overall costs. In other words, the goal is to optimise life cycle costs and minimise environmental impact. Special focus will be placed on visualising the key concepts.

Planning information for submersible motor pumps Amacan®

Submersible motor pumps in discharge tubes offer several advantages in terms of planning and operation in water and wastewater engineering. However, the correct design of the periphery is decisive here. Find out more about the design of the pump hydraulics, the design of the building and pump sump, the pump installation and options for electrical equipment.

Planning information for submersible mixer

In municipal wastewater treatment plants, submersible mixers are used both in storage tanks and in basins in the biological stage. Get a basic feel for processes and applications as well as positioning of submersible mixers. You will also receive valuable assistance for the correct design, e.g. on the basis of a CFD simulation.

Planning information for groundwater extraction

In addition to various options for groundwater extraction, you will find planning aids for deep wells with submersible motor pumps as well as instructions for the construction of drilled wells. Information on influences on the operation of wells and design recommendations complete this brochure.

Planning information for tubular casing pumps

This brochure provides proven planning information for the integration of tubular casing pumps into a larger system. Not only the hydraulic system characteristic curve has an influence on the operation of the pump, but also the forces occuring on the pump and the system during operation must be considered. For example, the intake geometrie has a decisive influence on the pump´s performance and operating behavior.
