Submersible borehole pump People at KSB we make your world flow round! UPZ PUMP POWER FOR TOP PERFORMANCE UNDER THE TOUGHEST CONDITIONS UPZ is top choice wherever submersible borehole pumps have to satisfy the most exacting demands on capacity, discharge head and operating reliability. Operators originally mainly used this type of pump for extracting water from deep wells. But now continuous development and technical progress have opened up a host of new applications. Materials have been developed for high-stress components, ensuring virtually wear-free pump operation for long periods. At the same time, the power and reliability of the fully immersed electric motors have risen continuously. Access to pumps installed in such applications is extremely difficult. So the pumps have to meet tough demands on reliability and wear resistance. In developing the UPZ pump range, KSB has found a solution which more than matches these requirements.

UPZ Submersible borehole pump High operating reliability and long service life The double-entry design with backto-back impellers enables low flow velocities, while ensuring full balancing of hydraulic thrust. This considerably reduces the load on the thrust bearing. The ingenious design principle allows high discharge heads at high flow rates. Other factors designed to achieve high operating reliability and a long service life are the check valve with anti-blockage check plate, designed to close quickly and silently, the dynamically balanced, smoothly running rotor, and the wear-resistant casing and impeller wear rings. Particularly suitable for installation in narrow deep wells. Low maintenance and optimised operating costs Impellers can be turned down, so that pump performance can be exactly matched to head requirements in the system. Impellers are fixed with keys for reliable power transmission. Trouble-free long-term operation under extreme operating conditions Integrated sand separators and the maintenance-free enclosed pump bearing reliably protect the shaft and bearing area from solids. 3470.021-10b 10/04 www.riegg.com Subject to technical modification without prior notice.
