Submersible motor pumps (100 mm)

Interruptions / Shutdown periods
In order to ensure a long motor service life, pumps should not be
allowed to remain idle in water for more than 8 to 10 days.
Otherwise fine deposits like lime, iron and other substances tend
to settle in the bearings and impeller gaps. This might block the
pump rotor. In case the situation is unavoidable, it is
recommended to run the pump for at least 10 to 15 minutes every
week. This will enable the pump to resume instant service at
any time.

UMT (S) 100 motors
Special attention on following points is required :
4.1
The motor is hermetically sealed induction
motor
It is pre-filled with liquid at works with rotor and bearings being
lubricated and cooled by the filled liquid. The motor is designed
for vertical and horizontal location in clean water, with a maximum
sand content of 50 g/m
