PUMP HANDBOO 2026
PUMP HANDBOO 2026
The Grindex Pump Handbook is a comprehensive guide for submersible pumping, offering insights into Grindex pumps, technical details, and a pump school for troubleshooting. It includes advanced technical information like pH tables and friction loss graphs.
The handbook is organized into sections covering various pump types and accessories, including drainage, sludge, stainless steel, slurry, and Primo pumps, along with accessories, limitations, and technical information.
Designed for challenging environments, Grindex drainage pumps handle water with solids and are known for reliability. Key features include ergonomic handles, SMART motor protection, and durable construction materials.
Each pump type has specific data such as discharge connection size, power consumption, shaft speed, and dimensions. Materials include aluminum, stainless steel, and polyurethane.
Limitations include a maximum submersion depth of 10 meters and a liquid temperature of 40°C. Accessories include float switches and pump rafts.
Pumps have IP 68 protection and squirrel cage induction motors with insulation class H. Motor protection includes phase sequence control and temperature guards.
SubCab cables are used, with a maximum submersion depth of 20 meters and a liquid temperature of 40°C. The pH range is 5-8.
Features include cartridge seals with double mechanical seals and ball bearings with C3 clearance.
Discharge connections range from 3'' to 6''. Materials include aluminum, stainless steel, and Hard-Iron™.
Accessories include float switches, zinc anodes, and starter boxes.
Specifications for models like Minette, Minor, and Major include rated power, max power consumption, and shaft speed.
Grindex slurry pumps, including Sandy Inox and Bravo series, handle abrasive slurries. Specifications include discharge connection size, power, and materials like stainless steel and Hard-Iron™.
Pumps have squirrel cage induction motors, double mechanical seals, and are available in explosion-proof versions.
Maximum submersion depth is 20 meters, with a liquid temperature of 40°C and a pH range of 5.5-14.
The Grindex Pump School provides advice on pump selection, arrangement, and sedimentation management.
Includes friction loss calculations, pH and salt tables, and recommended generator sizes.
Grindex pumps are engineered for durability and efficiency in challenging environments, with specifications subject to change.
