A: Between 100 V and 250 V
Q: What must the supply voltage lie between in order for the SQ/SQE pump to deliver a flow of water?
A: Between 150 V and 315 V
Q: What must the supply voltage lie between in order for the SQ/SQE pump to deliver a flow of water?
A: Between 230 V and 400 V
Q: What happens if the static water level is too low?
A: The pump overheats
Q: What happens if the static water level is too low?
A: The water level is brought down below the inlet of the pump
Q: What happens if the static water level is too low?
A: The motor shuts down
Q: By how much does the supply voltage decrease before the motor contactor stops the pump?
A: More than 10 %
Q: By how much does the supply voltage decrease before the motor contactor stops the pump?
A: More than 15 %
Q: By how much does the supply voltage decrease before the motor contactor stops the pump?
A: More than 20 %
Q: Why is it important to protect the pump from over- and under voltage?
A: Because large variations in power supply will damage the motor over time.
Q: Why is it important to protect the pump from over- and under voltage?
A: To avoid burning the house fuses.
Q: Why is it important to protect the pump from over- and under voltage?
A: To minimise the power consumption.
Q: How many times higher than nominal speed does the motor current reach during the first milliseconds?
A: Four times higher
Q: How many times higher than nominal speed does the motor current reach during the first milliseconds?
A: Six times higher
Q: How many times higher than nominal speed does the motor current reach during the first milliseconds?
A: Seven times higher
Q: Why is correct sizing of the submersible pump important?
A: Because an undersized pump will not be able to deliver the required flow and pressure and an oversized pump reduces energy efficiency, which increases operational costs.
Q: Why is correct sizing of the submersible pump important?
A: Because too small a pump will pump the well dry.
Q: Why is correct sizing of the submersible pump important?
A: Because too big a pump will ruin the taps due to too high pressure.
