City residents change their registration with great joy: becoming a resident of a suburban village is pleasant, prestigious, and good for your health. True, such a change in habitat means that power outages and walking with a bucket to fetch water will become familiar realities for most of the settlers. You can put up with this, or you can fight it. It takes very little time to buy and install the same generator. But with the water source everything is much more complicated. Finding a place for a well yourself is difficult, and digging it is generally life-threatening. It is best to contact specialists who will do this work for you. They will also tell you whether it is possible to drill and install a pump in a well on the site, if this option suits you best.

Installation and commissioning rules

Before installing the pump in the well, you need to check for unevenness, bending or narrowing of the casing pipe. All this can not only significantly complicate installation, but also reduce the service life of the equipment. If the difference in the diameters of the pipe and the pump is too small, all surface defects will affect its operation; if it is too large, the pump may burn out. The fact is that in the latter case the speed of water movement, which is necessary to cool the engine, will not be ensured. The minimum acceptable values ​​must be specified in the technical documentation.

The pump is suspended on a nylon cord capable of withstanding a tensile load that is five times its weight. To avoid suction of the knot on which the suspension is attached, it is tied at a distance of at least 10 centimeters from the inlet holes, and its ends are melted. If the pump is lowered less than ten meters, an additional spring suspension must be attached to the end of the cord to dampen vibration. This could be a medical tourniquet or flexible rubber tape.

Do not use iron wire or cable as a suspension, as they will break the fastenings on the aluminum pump body during operation.

The power cord, nylon suspension and metal-plastic pipe are fastened with electrical tape in increments of 70-130 centimeters. The first bunch should be at a distance of at least 20-30 centimeters from the pump nozzle.

The pump suspension is selected in such a way that it can withstand a load that is 5-10 times the weight of the pump. And the attachment point should be ten centimeters from the inlet holes

Connecting the pump to the well does not involve the use of threaded connections. They reduce the strength of pipes and are subject to corrosion. Flange connections will last much longer. When using them, the fastening bolt must be inserted from above, and the nut from below, since a bolt falling into the well can lead to a serious accident.

The upper end of the discharge pipeline is attached to the base plate. Then a check valve (if the pump does not have one), a valve, an elbow, a pressure gauge are installed on it and the equipment is connected to the water supply system.

Next, the pendant should be attached to the crossbar. This is the last thing to do before lowering the pump into the well. When lowering, it should not touch the walls. If this cannot be guaranteed, it is better to protect the housing with a rubber ring.

The pump must be lowered into the well very carefully, avoiding contact and hitting the walls. Just in case, you can put a rubber ring on the body

In order to measure the water level in the well, a column of gas pipes is installed in the hole of the base plate. It is immersed below the dynamic level.

Using a megohmmeter, you need to determine the insulation resistance of the electric motor winding with the cable lowered. After this, connect the control station to the pump, check whether it is sufficiently immersed in water and evaluate the operation of the electric motor under load.

To what depth can and should the pump be lowered?

The static level is the length of the segment from the ground level to the water surface in its natural state. Then water begins to be pumped out of the well. The level at which the water stops is called dynamic.

The pump is lowered below the dynamic water level by two meters, and at least one meter must remain to the bottom of the well

In order for the engine to cool properly, the pump must be lowered to at least 30 centimeters below the dynamic level, and a dive of two to three meters below this mark is considered optimal. It should be remembered that the distance to the bottom of the well should be at least 1-2 meters.

How to replace a well pump in case of an accident?

The need to replace the pump rarely occurs, mainly due to the fact that the pump was installed incorrectly in the well. The cause of the accident may lie in an incorrectly selected automatic power supply or in the low power of the pump itself. For example, if it is designed for 50-meter immersion, but is actually installed at a depth of 80 meters, then repairs will be needed within a few months.

The automatic power supply is set to working, and from such a depth a weak pump simply cannot lift it. As a result of constant operation without shutting down, it quickly breaks down.

As in any situation, there are two options: we call repair specialists or do everything ourselves.

Option number 1: call deep-well pump repair specialists

First of all, this option is suitable for those who do not understand pumping equipment. Professionals can objectively assess the situation and identify the reasons that led to equipment failures. It is possible that only the automatic power supply is not working correctly, but the pump itself is in working condition. In this case, it is enough to configure it properly.

Another plus for those who have already decided that such repairs are beyond their capabilities is the guarantee provided by the contractor. Also, in addition to the main work, you will have a complete setup of the entire water supply system. Of course, you need to pay for such services, and if we are talking about replacing the pump, then the amount will be impressive.

Option number 2: replacing the pump yourself

Replacing a well pump on your own is carried out only if you are sure that it is faulty. If in doubt, it is better to contact specialists.

It is simply impossible to do this work alone; you will need the help of at least five more people: at a depth of 100 meters, the pump with cable and suspension weighs about 250 kilograms.

• First of all, you need to prepare a plumbing tool, an electric soldering iron, a hair dryer, a heat-shrink sleeve, scissors and consumables.

Then we disconnect the well head pipeline and the pump power cable from the main line going into the house. After this, unscrew the tightening element.

When lifting the pump, be sure to use a safety rope. If the pump breaks, it will be impossible to lift it, which means it will be impossible to use the well in the future either.

• We disconnect the pump raised to the surface from the main line. We inspect the pump; if it is still in working condition, we replace the connecting mechanism, coupling and check valve. The old ones have most likely already lost their working properties, so it is better to install new ones. If the old pump cannot be repaired, install a new one.

Next, we connect the pipeline to the pump, solder the power cable, remembering the tightness of the connection and the heat-shrink sleeve. We attach the safety rope and check its tension.

We prepare the new pump for submersion, solder the power cable and attach the safety rope

Installation of a deep-well pump in a well must be done extremely carefully. It is undesirable to allow contact with the walls of the casing pipe.

The pump must be lowered into the well very carefully - make sure that it does not hit the wall

We tighten the well head, attach fittings to the harness and configure the automation in accordance with the specified parameters.

We configure automatic power supply in accordance with the specified operating pressure parameters

The most convenient option for organizing water supply in a suburban area is a well. The deep-well pump operates quietly, and if the installation and adjustment were carried out correctly, then the next time you will have to look into the well very soon.

Comfortable living in a private house depends on many factors, and water supply plays an important role here. If there is already a well on the site, then the issue is half resolved. But to ensure a complete water supply, you will need to select a suitable pump, otherwise getting water from a deep and narrow hole will be, to put it mildly, difficult, don’t you agree?

At first glance, installing a pump in a well seems like a rather difficult task. Here, as in any business, there are a number of important nuances. Therefore, before starting to solve it, it is worth thoroughly studying this issue. We will help you understand the intricacies of installing pumping equipment.

Useful tips for installing surface and submersible pumps are presented in this material. There are also photos and videos with expert advice that will help you better understand the intricacies of installation.

First you need to select and purchase a suitable pump, as well as a number of materials necessary for its successful installation. The pump is usually submersible, but it is highly desirable that it be centrifugal.

Unlike centrifugal models, they cause dangerous vibrations in the well, which can lead to destruction of the soil and casing. Such models are especially dangerous for sand wells, which are less stable than their artesian counterparts.

The pump power must correspond to the productivity of the well. In addition, the immersion depth for which a particular pump is designed should be taken into account. A model designed to operate at a depth of 50 m can supply water from a depth of 60 m, but the pump will soon break down.

A submersible centrifugal pump is the optimal choice for a well. Its performance, size and other indicators should be correlated with the characteristics of your own water source

Another risk factor is the level of quality of drilling work. If an experienced team drilled, the well will better withstand the destructive effects. And for wells created with your own hands or through the efforts of “shabashniks”, it is recommended to use not just a centrifugal pump, but special models for wells.

Such devices better withstand the loads associated with pumping water heavily contaminated with sand, silt, clay particles, etc. Another important point is the diameter of the pump. It must match the dimensions of the casing pipe. It is also important to take into account the power supply features of the pump. For wells, both single-phase and three-phase devices are used.

It is easier to find equipment for four-inch pipes than for three-inch pipes. It would be good if this point was taken into account at the well planning stage. The greater the distance from the pipe walls to the pump housing, the better. If the pump fits into the pipe with difficulty rather than freely, you need to look for a model with a smaller diameter.

Preparation of materials accompanying installation

A stuck pump in a casing can be a major headache. And you need to pull it out (as well as lower it) using a special cable. If the pump is already equipped with a polymer cord, you need to make sure that it is of high quality and of sufficient length. Sometimes it makes more sense to purchase this item separately.

It is believed that a reliable cable or cord must be designed to withstand a load that is at least five times the weight of the equipment attached to it. Of course, it must withstand moisture well, since part of it will constantly be in water.

If the device is suspended relatively shallowly, less than ten meters from the surface, care must be taken to provide additional shock absorption for the equipment during operation. To do this, use a piece of flexible rubber or a medical tourniquet. Metal cable or wire is not suitable for suspension as it does not dampen vibration but may destroy the mount.

A special electrical cable is provided to power the pump. Its length should be sufficient so that the cable lies freely and is not strained.

To supply water from the pump to the house water supply, special plastic pipes are used. Designs with a diameter of 32 mm or larger are recommended. Otherwise, the water pressure in the system will be insufficient.

To install a submersible pump, a special cable is used, which is designed for long-term operation under water. Its cross-section must comply with the technical requirements specified in the product passport

Pipes can be used both metal and plastic. There is controversy regarding the connection of metal pipes. Some experts object to the threaded connection as less reliable. It is recommended to use flanges, and the bolt should be on top, this will prevent it from accidentally falling into the well.

But threaded connections in wells are used quite successfully. During installation, winding must be used. Some experts recommend using linen or “Tangit” sealing tape instead of the usual FUM tape or tow. The linen winding is additionally strengthened with silicone sealant or similar material.

The characteristics of the water supply pipe should be selected in accordance with its operating conditions. For depths up to 50 meters, HDPE pipes designed for a pressure of 10 atm are used. For a depth of 50-80 m, you will need pipes capable of operating under a pressure of 12.5 atm, and for deeper wells, pipes of 16 atm are used.

In addition to the pump, pipes and cord or cable, before installing, it is recommended to stock up on the following materials:

• clamps for securing the electrical cable to the pipe;
• check valve;
• pressure gauge;
• shut-off valve for the water pipe;
• steel fastening unit;
• power cable, etc.

Before connecting the pipe to the pump, attach a nipple adapter to its outlet. Usually modern submersible pumps are equipped with such a device, but if it is not there, this unit must be purchased separately.

It should be remembered that to pump the well immediately after drilling, i.e. To remove large amounts of very dirty water from a well, such a pump cannot be used. It will quickly fail. Usually the well is pumped with a separate pump, which is cheaper and works better when working with dirty water.

Rules for installing the surface version

Surface pumps are not often used for this type of water supply as they are only suitable for shallow hydraulic structures, up to eight meters deep.

And yet, this option has a right to exist, and its installation is no more complicated than installing submersible equipment.

Surface pumps are easier to install and cheaper than submersible models, but they are only effective for wells up to eight meters deep

Mount the device as follows:

1. The surface pump is installed in a special caisson or a separate room.
2. A hose of suitable length is connected to the suction pipe of the pump.
3. A check valve is attached to the other end of the hose (a protective measure to prevent water from draining when the pump stops running).
4. A protective strainer is installed on the valve to prevent various contaminants from entering the pump housing.
5. The hose is lowered into the well.

At this point, the installation can be considered complete and a test run of the pump can be done. To install such a pump in a well, a special adapter is often used. In this case, the hose is connected to the adapter, and the adapter is connected to the pump. The rest of the installation procedure is exactly the same.

It is a little more difficult to install a surface pump equipped with a remote ejector into a well. In this case, two hoses need to be lowered into the well. In addition to the suction hose, a pressure hose is also installed. It is connected to the side fitting of the ejector using a special outlet.

To set up a full-fledged water supply system, it is not enough to simply dig a well or drill a borehole; you also need to establish a continuous “transit” of life-giving moisture into the house or garden plot. As a rule, for uninterrupted supply of liquid, submersible devices are used, installed almost at the bottom of the shaft. How to tie a pump in a well so that it serves for many years? During installation, it is necessary to take into account not only the difference in static and dynamic levels, but also climatic features, seasonal changes, the volume of water consumption and the power of energy networks.

The overwhelming majority of instructions on how to mount a submersible pump in a well focus on determining the optimal installation depth of the equipment. To avoid problems with the operation of the device, experts recommend installing the system according to the following tolerances:

• There must be at least a meter of water above the pump. Firstly, the devices pump out only the water that flows into them under the pressure of the upper layers. Secondly, the surrounding liquid acts as a cooling medium.
• The device must not come into contact with the bottom of the shaft. A suspension of soil particles accumulates in the bottom space. If the pump comes into contact with the lower layers, most likely you will not get clean, transparent water, but a “cocktail” mixed with silt and sand.

To protect against freezing, you need to equip a caisson

Practical method

You can determine the immersion depth simultaneously with the installation of the well pump:

• Lower the equipment to the bottom of the shaft (make sure the device reaches the bottom).
• Raise the pump 1.5-2 meters up and temporarily fix it.
• Check system operation and water quality.
• Perform final fixation of equipment.

Important! The trial and error method is only suitable for shallow mines (up to 15 meters). This technique will not work with artesian wells. At a depth of several tens or even hundreds of meters, it is difficult to determine whether the equipment has touched the bottom.

Dynamic characteristics

If the drilling contract was carried out by qualified specialists, you should not even have a question about how to properly install a well pump. All necessary data must be indicated in the well passport:

• Dynamic level is the point at which the water is when the device is operating. This parameter is determined at the peak of fluid consumption (usually in the summer months). The minimum installation depth for equipment is 1 meter down from the dynamic mark.
• Static level. The distance between the surface of the earth and the mirror of settled water plays rather a reference role.
• Well flow rate. The pump capacity should not exceed the capacity of the mine. Otherwise, the source may simply dry out, and the equipment may overheat and fail.

Dynamic and static levels are measured in different ways

Before installing a water pump on a well, you must consider the following nuances:

• Correlate the pump performance with the well flow rate.
• Carefully study the operating characteristics of the device.
• For “top” installation, purchase dry-running sensors (some models are equipped with built-in protection).

Important! Installation depth and device performance are closely related. The dynamic level of the same well will vary when using pumps of different power.

Preparing for installation

Installation of a water pump in a well begins with careful preparation of the equipment and checking of all devices:

• There should be no irregularities, narrowings or bends in the casing.
• The diameter of the unit must correspond to the dimensions of the well (acceptable parameters are indicated in the instructions for the pump).
• There should be no threaded connections on the pipes. If you use bolts, install them from the top. Otherwise, parts may fall out and damage the equipment.
• To suspend the pump, it is better to use a metal cable or nylon cord with a tensile load exceeding the total weight of the equipment by at least 5 times.

Important! A base plate must be installed at the front of the well. A crossbar is attached to it to support the equipment during installation.

To connect the pump to the well, you will need a plastic pipe, adapters and couplings of the appropriate diameter, a hydraulic accumulator with a pressure switch (protects the equipment from pressure changes and prevents water hammer) and insulating tape.

To use a well in winter, it is necessary to equip a caisson - a dry well, the depth of which is below the freezing point of the soil. A trench for pipelines and electrical wiring is laid at the lowest point of the caisson.

Installation of a submersible pump

How is a pump installed in a well? To avoid problems during installation, follow the instructions:

• Attach a check valve to the pump pipe - it will prevent water from draining after the system is turned off. For insulation, use fum tape or Tangit-unilok thread.
• Connect the discharge hose to the check valve. The “ground” end of the hose is attached to the hydraulic accumulator or outlet adapter.
• Install a cup-shaped filter on the suction pipe - it will save the working chamber from silting.
• Use metal clips or plastic ties to secure the cable to the well pump. In the same way, connect the electrical cable with the rope and the injection hose.
• Secure the rope in the special eyes of the pump.
• Cut the casing pipe and install a cap with a sealing rubber ring on it.
• Unwind the cable and water intake pipe of the calculated length and carefully place them on the site.
• Carefully lower the system into the well. Be careful not to twist the rope.

Important! The equipment should not hit the walls of the shaft. If the diameter of the well is slightly larger than the size of the pump, protective rubber gaskets can be used.

After the dive, you need to fix the cord, connect the control panel and check the functionality of the system. After complete pumping, you can mount the pump in the well.

For uninterrupted water supply, it is not enough to install the pump correctly in the well. In the process, it will be necessary to check the functioning of the equipment in various modes, measure the volume of water supplied, calculate the pressure created and energy consumption, and install a starter with protection against power surges. If you do not have sufficient knowledge regarding electricity and water supply, it is better to entrust such work to specialists.

Video: installation of a well pump

Installing a well pump is a responsible and time-consuming process that requires special attention and some skills. To install the pump in a well according to all the rules, it is necessary to complete all drilling work. They are mandatory for arranging a drinking source. At the same time, the shaft itself should not take up much space. To supply water from a well, you will need to install surface pumps. Water can be supplied from wells using deep submersible devices.

When submerging equipment, it is important to set the correct placement depth. Some manufacturers recommend installing pumps more than 10 meters. If the manufacturer makes any recommendations for installing their product, they must be strictly followed. Correct assembly of the equipment will prevent various problems in its further operation.

Equipment selection

Careful attention should be paid to the selection of materials. This will ensure a rational organization of the entire process. Since all elements are constantly in water, their technical characteristics and resistance to negative environmental influences should be taken into account. Insufficient sealing of all joints can cause equipment failure. If the pump is installed incorrectly, it quickly fails. Therefore, when installing the pump with your own hands, you need to be extremely careful and careful.

The design of pumping equipment intended for immersion provides the necessary water supply pressure. From the well it is supplied to the water supply. Connecting the pump without errors will ensure long-term operation of the entire system and the equipment itself.

Submersible pump includes:

• cylindrical body;
• mechanism for pumping water from a borehole;
• reinforced cable;
• adjustable rubber diffusers;
• electrical components;
• chrome impeller.

The water intake device is selected taking into account characteristics such as power and size. The depth of the well is measured in meters; it is to this level that the equipment should raise water. When choosing a pump, be sure to take into account the volume of drinking water coming from the mine within an hour. This parameter provides the required pressure. The ease of use and location of the mechanism are also taken into account.

Preliminary work

The borehole pump connection diagram will help you install the device without errors. It is necessary if you do not know how to connect the pump to the well. To ensure access to power supply, if necessary, extend the cable. The wires are connected based on their color. During the installation of power supplies, soldering is used. It improves contact between cable sections.

Before installing the well pump, the shaft is washed and cleaned. This will preserve all important structural elements from damage by clay and sand. The choice of type of mechanism depends on the planning of pipe routing. You can install a surface pumping station or a submersible pump.

If water supply needs to be installed at the dacha, then surface seasonal pipe laying is used. To ensure year-round water supply, pipes are laid underground below the freezing level. Installation begins after completion of drilling work.

Before installation, be sure to check the casing pipe for various defects. Existing irregularities and narrowings can lead to poor functioning of the unit. Defects complicate the operation of mechanisms and water intake, so it is necessary to use a straight casing pipe.

Installation

After pumping the well shaft, installation of the unit begins. Connecting a well pump requires the use of high-quality piping materials. You will need:

• rigid PVC hose;
• outlet pipe;
• adapter fittings;
• tow;
• sealing paste;
• cable for linking the pump in the shaft;
• clamps for the cable loop;
• insulating tape;
• hooks with carabiners;
• pressure switch;
• hydraulic accumulator mechanism.

How to install a pump in a well? To do this, you must follow several rules.

1. The pump must be installed below the surface water level. Some experts recommend immersing the pump 5-6 meters lower than indicated in the data sheet for the device. The pump must not be installed in an area where the filter is located.
2. The equipment is lowered into the pit strictly vertically using a cable. All actions must be unhurried and clear. Under no circumstances should the equipment be held by the electrical cable. The cable loop is fixed on a special hook.
3. Installation of a pump in a well begins with piping work. The outlet section is equipped with a valve, which prevents unexpected startup of the equipment without water. If the equipment does not have a valve, install it yourself. The valve ensures that the engine is turned off when there is no water. It is connected to the barrel.
4. A special durable sealant is applied to the threads, then a linen band is wound and a steel fitting is installed to connect the outlet tube. To properly connect plastic and metal parts, a special hermetic paste is used. How to connect a deep well pump so that no problems arise in the future? An additional element, a filter, is screwed to the pipe. This will protect the lower chamber from sand and silt.
5. To make it convenient, the cable, cable and hose are connected with electrical tape. After installing the head, the cable is secured, and the remaining elements should be brought out. The pipe is connected to an autonomous water supply system. It is connected without using threaded connections. This helps save the structure from damage by the corrosion process. How to install the cable correctly? Installing a pump to a well requires error-free connection of the cable and cable. The cable needs to be unwound, and then its end must be threaded through both ears of the housing. In this part of the work, special self-locking plastic fasteners are used. They are mounted every 5 centimeters. It is also important to use plastic clamps. The end of the cable is fixed with 2-3 clamps and a loop is formed.
6. If the well is located at great depth, you should first place the pipe and then measure the cable. Then the wire is unwound and secured. If the shaft depth is shallow, the head can be secured before installation. After lowering the pump into the well, the cable is fixed to the tube.
7. Installing a pump in a well with your own hands requires securing a cable to the surface of the well. To do this, the assembled loop is fixed with clamps. The wire is disconnected from the capacitors and then connected to the pumping equipment. Then it is fixed with electrical tape. It is important that there are no kinks anywhere - the cable must be free from any deformation.
8. The next stage is assembling the hydraulic accumulator. To do this, it is necessary to study the hydraulic accumulator unit. Before assembling it, a pump connection diagram for the well is carefully developed. It gives the master an idea of ​​how to connect a well pump correctly and quickly. Connecting electrical elements requires preliminary adjustment with a pressure gauge. A pressure switch is installed. The pump is set to the following parameters: 1.5 bar – on, 2.5 bar – off.
9. The tank is connected using fittings. The type of adapters is selected depending on the location of the inlet. The sealing paste used for fixation must be moisture resistant. A linen thread is fixed on top.
10. The pump can also be installed using the direct connection method - without using a hydraulic accumulator. The outlet pipe is directly connected to the tank. The equipment reservoir should be quite spacious - there is no need to skimp on engine operating cycles.
11. After connecting the condenser box, the pump is started to pump until clean drinking water appears. It is checked whether air has entered the structure. Excess pipe is cut off. Fittings are put on it, after which they should be tightened firmly.
12. There should not be much noise during operation of the device. If the station is installed correctly, it will be able to operate for many years without interruption. A modern electric pump can be used for a long period. If it is turned on quite often, you will need to provide a separate power supply to the equipment.

During installation, it is important to pay attention to the well design, determine the immersion depth and correctly secure the head to the pipe. These measures will help you avoid mistakes and configure the equipment correctly. If you cannot install the pump yourself, it is better to contact a specialist.

The issue of the need for water on a plot of land has not been considered in recent years; everyone understands that without life-giving moisture nothing living can exist. That is why own wells are an integral attribute of a modern landowner. All that remains is to decide who and how the work process will be carried out.

It is necessary to understand that an incorrectly installed pump will not only have a short service life, but can also damage the integrity of the foundation of a nearby building.

Beginning of work

A well drilled on a site is only the first stage of water extraction. Then the landowner is faced with the next task of how to properly install the pump in the well.

The solution to this issue consists of several subparagraphs:

• Correct choice of units.
• Direct installation of pumps into the well.
• Equipment immersion depth.

Choosing a pump for a well

Buying a pump to supply water from a well to the surface is a crucial moment.

Therefore, several factors should be taken into account in order to avoid unpleasant surprises that entail replacing an unsuitable system:

• The diameter of the unit body must correspond to the internal diameter of the casing pipes (well walls), taking into account the fact that at the points where they are connected to each other, the diameter decreases somewhat.

Important! The frame of the system should not be pushed through with difficulty, but should freely sink into the casing pipes. With this choice, installing a well pump with your own hands will become a simple, not burdensome task.

• Only centrifugal borehole pumps should be considered; the use of vibration units is undesirable in wells, especially sandy ones. Don't be tempted by the fact that their prices are the lowest.

For your information! Wells drilled to the depth of perched water, groundwater or interstratal water are considered sandy.

• What matters is a technical parameter such as pump performance. The required performance depends on the planned amount of water consumed; the uninterrupted supply of water to your home and other outbuildings depends on it.

Technology for self-installation of a pump in a well

When all the equipment has been selected and purchased, the last question remains: how to install a well pump. Of course, you can invite professionals, they will equip your well with high quality and in the shortest possible time and put it into operation for you. But this service will cost you a lot, so many land owners prefer to handle this themselves.

Now a little instruction on how to install a pump in a well for those who decide to do this work themselves.

For clarity and to facilitate understanding of the installation process, let’s consider the simplest diagram of a pump unit, which includes:

• The submersible pump itself is electrically driven.
• Clamps securing the power cable to the pipe.
• Mounting unit for the cable holding the pump (made of stainless steel).
• Power cable.
• Pressure gauge.
• Check valve.
• Shut-off device for regulating water flow.
• We install a nipple (adapter) for connecting pipes to the outlet pipe of the unit. Usually such an adapter is included with the pump. Otherwise, it must be purchased separately. A coupling is screwed onto the nipple.
• All threaded connections must be “seated” on the winding. Modern plumbers use FUM tape for this purpose, although some use tow the old fashioned way. However, to install borehole pumps, another winding material should be used - Tangit tape or flax fiber. To ensure the tightness of the joints, the flax fiber is coated with silicone sealant or other similar lubricant.
• Both metal and polypropylene pipes can be involved in the installation of a submersible pump. In any case, the recommended pipe diameter is at least 32 mm. Thinner pipes will limit the water flow.

Preparatory stage (pump piping)

The pipe connected to the pump should be as flat as possible to ensure smooth immersion of the equipment into the well.

After aligning the pipe, connect it to the pump.

Important! The main thing that should not be overlooked is the careful and reliable waterproofing of all connections, since the submersible pump is constantly in water. The reliability of waterproofing of electrical supply elements will extend the service life of heat-shrinkable tubes by covering them with heat-shrinkable sleeves.

• We connect the power cable and straighten it along the pipe.

• The stainless steel cable for lowering the pump into the well is securely attached to the mounting lugs and laid out like a cable, parallel to the pipe.
• We secure the electrical cable and cable in the pipe into a single route using clamps.
