A jet pump works on the centrifugal principle. Usually, jet pumps have three ports in the pump casing, one each meant for suction pipes, pressure pipes and delivery pipes. While the surface monoblock pump’s suction lift is 20 feet, a jet pump’s suction lift is up to 200 feet in a borewell application. A jet pump can be used in low yield borewells too.
The jet pump can be used in one or more of the following three scenarios:
A Monoblock pump is basically a centrifugal pump, in which the rotating parts are directly mounted on the shaft of the motor (also called prime mover). Transmission losses in this pump can be reduced through a single shaft design.
Sewage pumps are basically designed to drain out waste semi-solids and liquids, and all types of industrial waste water that gets stagnated and contaminate places like home basements and other secluded areas to a septic tank or a sewer system.
The pumping is created by a vortex force, wherein the solid particles will not come in contact with the impeller, which in turn reduces the wear. A sewage pump is installed at the lowest point of the sewage basin, in which the basin itself is placed at or below the floor level of the basement.
