One of the most common problems in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) is the recurring clogging of submersible pumps. installed on sand-blasting bridges. This situation leads to high maintenance costs and long downtimes.
A robust solution for pumping in desanding plants
To solve this problem, more and more EDR’s are relying on Gorman-Rupp T3self-priming pumps, specifically designed for the management of solids in demanding conditions. Equipped with the innovative Eradicator® system, these pumps allow an efficient evacuation of sands, rags and fibers that accumulate in the desarenadores.
Advantages over traditional submersible pumps
The difference is clear:
- Intervention time: in the event of a blockage, an intervention of 20 minutes is sufficient to make the pump operational again.
- Reduced downtime: compared to the 2 or 3 days needed to repair or replace a submersible centrifugal pump, the GR-T3 minimizes downtimes.
- Dry and accessible maintenance, no need to remove the pump from the well.
Longer service life and less wear due to anti-jam design.
If your plant is still dependent on traditional submersible systems in sand strippers,it’s time to consider a change. Operational reliability, ease of maintenance and cost savings more than justify the investment.
