we have 5 of these at my work.. I work in waist water and no one would ever want to see that video but the design of the pumps is interesting. they never get gamed with debris since they are so simple. and they use a love joy. basically a big rubber hockey puck connected to the electric motor that drives them. since the torque from the motors is so eminence and instant they use it for a soft start to not stress and brake the whole thing.
huh, just from looking at this vid aren't these pumps horribly inefficient? how is it getting any kind of water out the top when it all just splashes around the screw back down to the bottom? crazy
@@griggsdesign these pumps are very efficient. the "under" half of each section is filled with water and they bring it right to the outlet. At our waste water works we have 8 of these screw pumps. 3 with 510 l/s, 2 with 850 l/s and 3 with 1'200 l/s for high water (rain). when all 8 pumps are running, we pump around 6'830 liters/second (1'804.3 gal/s) from the main collector 11 meters up to the waste water works. It depends on the incomming waste water volume, how many of the pumps are activated. usually, on dry weather, only one of the 510 or 850 is working.
