Yes. All GPM-Eliminator motors are VFD rated for severe duty use. We use Class H insulation to repel heat damage to the windings.
Because we use motors with Class H insulation and we operate the mechanical seal in a full barrier fluid, our pumps will run dry for months. For applications where the pumpage is over 160°F, water cooled jackets are available for motor cooling.
Standard cable length is 33’ (10m). Customer lengths are available.
Sprayholes are simply two quarter-size holes, 180° apart, cut through the pump casing. They allow a small amount of pumped fluid to spray into the sump area and agitate solids into suspension. Sprayholes are standard on our submersible GPM-Eliminator pumps, but pumps can be ordered without them.
Pumps using our LH casings have impellers which rotate clockwise, when viewed from the suction end. EW casings have impellers which rotate counter-clockwise when viewed from the suction end.
Sprayholes are simply two quarter-size holes, 180° apart, cut through the pump casing. They allow a small amount of pumped fluid to spray into the sump area and agitate solids into suspension. Sprayholes are standard on our submersible GPM-Eliminator pumps, but pumps can be ordered without them.
Pumps which need to be removed often for repairs typically use a quick-disconnect discharge and a slide rail. GPM-Eliminator pumps do not need frequent repair. Secondly, our customers can easily avoid the expense and maintenance involved with these removal systems by utilizing a flexible slurry hose. Flexible hose is readily available, it’s inexpensive, and its ability to flex allows customers to remove the pump from the sump and to a working area where the discharge hose can be disconnected.
GPM-Eliminator pumps are available with a shaft agitator. This device acts like a mixer and aggressively agitates the slurry as it enters the pump.
