Submersible pump cables are electrical conductors designed for use in wet ground or under water, with types specialized for pump environmental conditions. [5] [6] [7] A submersible pump cable is a specialized product to be used for a submersible pump in a deep well, or in similarly harsh conditions.
Denis Papin FRS (French pronunciation: [dəni papɛ̃]; 22 August 1647 – 26 August 1713) [1] was a French physicist, mathematician and inventor, best known for his pioneering invention of the steam digester, the forerunner of the pressure cooker, the steam engine, [2] [3] the centrifugal pump, submersible and possibly the paddlesteamer (1707).
He emigrated to the United States in 1923, and moved to Oklahoma in 1928, where he started a company to build an electric submersible pump for use at the bottom of oil boreholes. By 1938 it is estimated that two percent of all oil produced in the US was lifted by an Arutunoff pump. He was inducted into the Oklahoma Hall of Fame in 1974.
These pumps, often submersible and powered by electricity, can access water reserves located much deeper than shallow wells, ensuring a consistent supply even during periods of drought. They include different kinds of pumps, most of them submersible pumps: Hand pump, manually operated; Injector, a jet-driven pump
In parts of Britain and Ireland, it was often called the parish pump. Though such community pumps are no longer common, people still used the expression parish pump to describe a place or forum where matters of local interest are discussed. [3] Because water from pitcher pumps is drawn directly from the soil, it is more prone to contamination.
Sixten Englesson, chief engineer, invented the first submersible drainage pump in 1947 and the first submersible sewage pump in 1956. In 1968, the Stenberg family sold the company to ITT Corporation .
Submersible pumps are mounted on two vertical guide rails and seal onto a permanently fixed "duckfoot", which forms both a mount and also a vertical bend for the discharge pipe. For maintenance or replacement, submersible pumps are raised by a chain off of the duckfoot and up the two guide rails to the maintenance (normally ground) level.
A small, electrically powered pump A large, electrically driven pump for waterworks near the Hengsteysee, Germany. A pump is a device that moves fluids (liquids or gases), or sometimes slurries, [1] by mechanical action, typically converted from electrical energy into hydraulic or pneumatic energy.
