Dzhileks borehole pumps. The success of the Russian manufacturer - borehole pump "Vodojet Pump for a well water jet characteristics

04.03.2020

In order to ensure uninterrupted operation of water production, it is necessary to install special equipment. Pumps Dzhileks Vodomet for pumping water, you can install with your own hands near the mouth of a source of drinking or technical water.

In addition, Dzhileks Vodomet pumps for pumping water from a well can be immersed under the surface of the water table. This one is able to extract the required volumes of water from a do-it-yourself well and supply it to the house, outbuildings, greenhouses or gardens.

1 What is the design of Dzhileks Vodomet pumps?

The Gileks Water Jet pump for water extraction is presented in the form of a multi-stage unit, the principle of operation of which is based on the active use of centrifugal force. All Dzhileks Vodomet pumps for pumping water are equipped with floating wheels and a washed motor. A do-it-yourself unit can reliably supply water from:

reservoir;
open reservoir;
Wells.

Due to the presence of floating wheels, the Dzhileks Vodomet pump for pumping water has enough high rates hydraulic efficiency. Reviews about such a pump, for the most part, are only positive.

The technical characteristics of the Jilex Vodomet devices are quite high, this is also evidenced by user reviews. Thanks to a number of design improvements, the Dzhileks Vodomet pump has a fairly compact axial dimensions of the body and a low weight of all rotating working elements.

The consequence of all this is a significantly reduced level of vibration of the unit during its operation. In addition, it will not be difficult to disassemble such a pump with your own hands and repair it.

The use of floating wheels in the pump contributes to the minimum number of blockages that occur due to the ingress of large particles into the system.

In addition, the electric motor of the pump is well protected against sudden overheating. The characteristics of the device allow washing the engine with a stream of water in order to cool it.

In addition, the presented pump can be installed in the well with your own hands. Repair of this unit can also be done by hand.

Feedback on the installation of the pump with your own hands and how it was repaired will help you figure out how to properly carry out the procedure for such work.

The engine is located above the pumping part of the device. This feature of the design solution allows you to output the power cable immediately from.

Thanks to this, the pump can be mounted in a well with a minimum working diameter, and it can be easily repaired if necessary.

It should be noted that the presented layout of the pump has proven itself well in cases where the design is used and when it is partially submerged.

The unit itself consists of two main parts - this is the engine and the pump compartment, which is located in a common housing. All other moving parts and elements of the unit are centrally fixed in the housing using a special intermediate support.

It also uses the front and back covers. The pump is designed in such a way that the floating wheels included in it can approach each other.

Due to this, there is a significant reduction in the gap between the parts of the device that are in a movable state and the fixed parts.

This solution avoids the occurrence of internal leaks and, in general, has a positive effect on increasing the efficiency of the entire system.

All presented units, depending on the types of marking, have a different number of repeating steps. All parts in the device are divided into four subspecies. This:

Impeller.
Cup.
The bottom of a glass.
Anti-friction washer.

The glasses are made in the form of cylinders made using black polyamide. Each of them is equipped with a belt that rests against the ring.

The ring is inserted into the spacer located in the body. An anti-friction washer is located between the glass and the impeller; it is designed to prevent friction of the mechanism parts.

The whole system is based on the rotation of the impellers located in the glasses. The cylinders are fixed and do not move due to the fact that they are fixed between and the cover.

1.1 Types of models

All units are divided into three main categories. These can be pumps for extracting water from a well; a special cooling jacket is supplied with such devices.

In most cases, the systems are used in the arrangement of private houses or suburban areas. Downhole type units are used to provide water supply from those wells that have a large diameter.

In addition, such pumps are used in all kinds of tanks and reservoirs. Chastotnik type systems are widely used in areas where uninterrupted water supply is required in automatic mode.

As a rule, these are cottages and suburban areas. An important advantage of such a device is the ability to provide the desired level of pressure in the entire water supply line.

The pressure level is not affected by the number of points from which water is drawn. Feedback on pumps is mostly positive.

1.2 Specifications and reviews

Here are some specific parameters of the most common models.

2 The most common malfunctions and their repair

One of the most common unit malfunctions that require repairs is that when the device is turned on, the pump does not pump water.

If you listen carefully, you can sometimes hear a barely noticeable buzz. Sometimes the device does not make any sounds at all and can be shocked at the moment when the user touches its case.

All these signs indicate that there was a partial abrasion of the covers located between the stages and the impellers. In order for the unit to work again, it must be completely disassembled and worn out impellers and covers must be replaced.

In addition, another cause may be a faulty capacitor. In such cases, the incorrect operation of the device is due to the ingress of water through the cable passage into the cavity of the capacitor compartment.

A faulty capacitor is subjected to mandatory replacement. In the event that when the start button is pressed, the pump does not turn on, first of all, you should make sure that there is voltage in the electrical network.

First of all, the integrity of the cable, which provides power to the unit, is checked. It happens that the control panel of the device fails.

In this case, it is almost impossible to make repairs on your own. Here you will need the help of a qualified specialist.

You should also act if protection is often triggered, which is activated in the event of a breakdown of the power cable and leakage of electricity.

If, during start-up, the device turns on, but does not pump water, check that the valve is installed correctly.

In this case, the pump must be lifted out of the well and make sure that the valve is installed properly. Sometimes it happens that an air lock forms inside the unit.

To eliminate it, it is necessary to immerse the pump to a greater than usual depth. In this case, the valve is installed at a height exceeding 1 meter.

Another reason for this problem may be correct installation and installation of a check valve. In this case, the pump is also removed and the check valve is reinstalled.

If, when the system is turned on, a partial supply of water is produced and its pressure constantly weakens, then, most likely, the equipment was operated without turning off for quite a long time. The reason for the low pressure is a clogged cleaning filter.

If it is clogged, the filter is disassembled and cleaned. Otherwise, it is completely replaced.

During the intake of water, the pump in some cases gets a large number of sand. In such a situation, the unit is placed in a container with water and it is pumped.

In order to avoid such moments in the future, you need to take care of installing an additional cleaning filter. If the equipment has completely stopped pumping water, then first of all the unit should be de-energized and removed from the well in order to conduct a detailed inspection.

With such a breakdown, the cause may be a significant decrease in the water level in a well or well. It is necessary to immerse the pump to an even greater depth.

In some cases, equipment jamming occurs. Often this is observed with severe contamination of all channels. If it is not possible to eliminate the cause with your own hands, then you should contact a qualified specialist or a service center.

Each well in the summer cottage for supply from the depth pure water, must be equipped with a device such as a water jet pump. This device, like a water jet pump, makes it possible to receive water from a well where there is no water.

The powerful technical characteristics of the water jet pump allow you to lift water from great depths. The water jet pump is small in size, has a very simple design, and endowed with the simplest automation.

1 Features and differences

Water jet pump "" regardless of size, models are always made only at domestic enterprises. All pumps of this line are adapted to the Russian climate. And we know that water resources(highways) have never been clean in our country.

As a result, even the simplest water cannon can pump the most dirty water and not fail for a long time. The channels inside the pump are practically not contaminated.

The most important advantage of the pump is that it is able to clean itself. Pumps are also good because, in addition to Soviet components, you can easily pick up spare parts for them from French, American and even German production. At the same time, the price of a water jet pump is much lower than, for example, German or French counterparts.

Now the pump is constantly being improved. The quality of performance is improving, the design has become an order of magnitude better. Here, for example, if we talk about the latest model of a water jet pump for a well, then in it the electric motor is located above the location of the pumping part. As a result, the Water Jet water pump has a body that is an order of magnitude smaller. It became possible to connect electrical cable to the top.

All water jet pumps for wells have a wetted motor. This means that water passes between the casing and the stator sheath. As a result, the engine is continuously cooled.

The water jet pump for the well has high-quality dividing seals. These seals protect the motor and also give a complete seal to the housing.

2 Water jet pump device

The water jet pump for the well has a very strong power. This allows him to provide water not only for a small plot of land, but for the whole house.

We will now analyze the most best models water jet pump.

Submersible model WATERJET PROF 55/35

2.1 Systems of the DOM series based on the Vodomet pump

Every country cottage area, and on it private house requires constant water supply. As a result, a system was developed for a constant supply of water. It is called "Water cannon house".

This system provides a constant supply of water to a summer cottage and a private house without human intervention.

The system consists of:

Pressure sensor and manometer.
System control panel.
Hydraulic accumulator.
Stop valve.
Water cannon.

Set of the system "WATER HOUSE":

Submersible pump.
Pressure gauge.
Control panel with pressure sensor.
Hydraulic accumulator. They are water tanks with a volume of about 50 liters.
Fittings.
Stop valve.

This system provides constant water pressure. Saving electricity. Equipped with a current overload sensor, as well as a differential pressure sensor. It also has a soft start system.

Borehole pump "Vodomet" of the company "Dzhileks" proved to be the most adapted in comparison with similar units foreign production. This is not surprising. Any mechanism is designed to work in certain conditions. The same is true with pumps. Domestic "Vodomet" is designed to work with our water, which differs from foreign in many ways.

The line of pumps "Dzhileks"

Production of submersible borehole pumps"Vodomet" is one of the main activities of the company. As a result of painstaking work, new models of pumping units have been created.

A variety of submersible pumps "Vodomet"

They have very significant differences from similar models from other manufacturers:

high efficiency;
increased durability of work;
decreased sensitivity to dirty water;
lack of vibration;
the presence of a "washed" electric motor.

In addition to those listed, there are a number of other differences that are characteristic only for Vodomet products. Some will be discussed a little later.

efficiency (coefficient useful action). For "Water cannons" it is higher than for similar models. The increase was achieved due to the absence of reciprocating motion and the installation of "floating" injection wheels.

The durability of the unit is increased due to the absence of valves and pistons, which are characterized by rapid abrasion during operation.

Sensitivity to dirty water is significantly reduced due to the presence of a mesh filter and a special arrangement of through channels that have the ability to self-clean.

The absence of vibration is achieved by the presence of several impellers. All of them are balanced when the pump is assembled.

The "washed" electric motor is absolutely protected from overheating.

Interesting to know. Produced models of pumps "Vodomet" are constantly being improved. Created new system seals, eliminating the violation of the sealing of the rotating units of the unit.

Design features

The submersible pump "Vodomet" has significant differences in comparison with its foreign analogues. First of all, it is necessary to pay attention to the installation of reinforced bearings on rotating parts. This ensures their trouble-free operation in conditions of high water pollution with sand particles or sedimentary solids.

Submersible pump "Vodomet", scheme

The next not unimportant feature is the optimization of flow channels and impellers. The result is the elimination of the possibility of clogging the pump as a whole. Additionally, the self-cleaning system contributes to this.

The electric motor of the unit is located on top. This arrangement made it possible to significantly reduce the diameter of the entire case, and bring the power cord out from above. Due to this, the size of the water well has also decreased. And this is already a tangible reduction in investments for its installation.

Another feature that is unique to the "Vodomet" is "floating" impellers. Without going into technical aspects, suffice it to say that such an innovation leads to an increase in pump performance and pressure, as well as to a decrease in the electricity consumed by it.

By the way, the electric motor of the unit during its operation is cooled by water passing through a specially made annular slot inside the housing. Overheating of the engine is not terrible, the unit can be operated without turning off for a long time.

Important. The pump is produced by a Russian manufacturer and is adapted to work with our water.

Model range of pumps

For small wells equipped for country houses or cottages, the design bureau of the company has developed a number of borehole pumps of the Dzhileks series.

Water cannon pump

They are compact and at the same time have the power to lift water from a depth of several tens of meters. Most units allow you to pump out water in automatic mode. If necessary, they can work without automation.

A wide range of water pumping units will satisfy the taste of any consumer. This is evidenced by the technical characteristics of submersible pumps, presented in the table:

Main characteristics

Models that do not have an automatic mode of operation do not require a special mode of operation. They easily withstand 20 inclusions per hour. In this case, the possibility of engine overheating is completely eliminated.

The next popular group of Dzhileks submersible pump models are models capable of operating in automatic mode. These units do not require human intervention at all. They turn on independently when the water pressure in the system drops, or in the case when the water level in the tank drops more than allowed. And vice versa, they turn off at the moment of reaching the set pressure or its increase above the norm. Their characteristics do not differ from those without automatic control, although the range of models is somewhat expanded.

The principle of operation in automatic mode is the current position of the float switch or the pressure in the chamber of the pumping station.

Popular Models

To fill containers and irrigate plantings, a pumping unit of the Vodomet PROF 55-35 model is quite enough. It can be used in open water bodies with a partial depth of 10-15 cm. It is not recommended for automatic water supply.

Borehole pump "Dzhileks" "Vodomet Prof" 55-50 is one of the most popular models of the company. It supplies water to a height of 50 meters. One of the advantages is the possibility of lowering it to a depth of up to 30 m. It is absolutely silent and economical in operation. Maintenance free. Ideal for autonomous system water supply country house or cottage. A more advanced model "Vodomet" PROF 55-90 allows installation in wells up to 95 meters deep.

The downhole pump "Vodomet" PROF 40-50 has a capacity of 40 l / min, therefore it is used in wells with a small debit. Is one of the best options country house applications.

Submersible pump "Vodomet" 60-32 is an analogue of the considered model. After modernization, it is able to pump out water containing up to 2 kg of sand per 1 m³. As a result of using modern materials in rubbing parts and competent constructive solutions little wear. Able to lift water from a depth of 90 meters.

Other models of pumps "Vodomet" are structurally similar to those considered. They have a difference in specifications ah - power, performance and others. Specific figures can be seen in the table and the “Pump Operating Instructions”. Detailed information must be given by the sales assistant when purchasing the unit.

Pump installation

The submersible pump for the well of the company "Dzhileks" is installed in the water supply system similarly to other downhole units. From the correct installation in the future will depend on the performance of the entire water supply system. Install the pump carefully, following all recommendations for its installation. The most unpleasant thing that can happen as a result of installation errors is drilling a new well and installing another pump.

To exclude the possibility of such a situation, it is necessary:

Perform installation pumping equipment.
Install check valve.
Make sure the pump is assembled correctly.
Lower the pump into the well.
Fasten the cable to the head.

Installation of pumping equipment. It is carried out on the surface. A cable is attached to the pump, a cable is unwound, a pipeline is connected.

Check valve. Protects the entire water supply system from water hammer. Attached either directly to the pump housing or in the pipeline.

Correct assembly. All connections are checked, the insulation of the twisted wires, the fastening of the clamps.

Lowering the pump into the well performed smoothly, without jerks. After lowering to a predetermined depth, the safety cable is securely fixed to the head.

For more information on preparing for the installation of the pump, see the video at the end of the article.

Note. Holding the pump during the descent is carried out only by the cable.

The downhole pump "Vodomet" is gaining more and more popularity in the consumer market. The high quality of the product, ease of installation and reliability in operation make it indispensable in the autonomous water supply of private houses. The multi-vector design allows the use of Dzhileks products not only in wells, but also in wells and open water bodies.

Don't forget to rate the article.

The Russian company "Dzhileks", located in the village of Klimovsk, Moscow Region, produces submersible multistage pumping units. Water cannon pumps are manufactured to provide independent water supply to a private house and garden watering. Moreover, the range of equipment of this brand is represented by a whole set of household appliances that have different power and dimensions. Thanks to such a large selection, the buyer can choose a model that provides the required amount of water.

All submersible pumping units of the Vodomet series are manufactured at domestic enterprises, therefore, even at the development stage, parameters are laid in them that allow the equipment to be adapted to work in the conditions of domestic water supply systems. This is especially important, since our waterways are not as clean as foreign ones.

Borehole pumps of this series are able to pump even dirty water with impurities up to 300 g per m³. For the production of guides and impellers, the manufacturer uses a special LEXAN polymer. And for the manufacture of thrust bearings, ceramics and graphite are used. Thanks to such innovative additions, the wear resistance of the units increases, their service life increases, and the likelihood of breakdowns is minimized.

At the same time, downhole units of the Dzhileks brand are practically not subject to clogging, since they have a self-cleaning function. It is not surprising that such pumps can only be heard about positive reviews, because in addition to domestic nodes, they use parts of American, French, Swedish, German and Italian production.

The performance and design of pumps of this brand are constantly being improved. For example, new models are distinguished by the fact that the electric motor in them is located above the pumping part. This made it possible to reduce the dimensions of the housing, as well as connect the electrical cable to the upper part of the unit.

Advantages of water jet pumps

Submersible pumps of this brand have whole line advantages over similar models from other manufacturers. Thanks to them, they have earned numerous positive reviews. Among the advantages of these units are the following:

The borehole and well pump of the Dzhileks brand works very quietly, which is important for country houses and summer cottages.
Compact dimensions allow you to choose a unit for any well size.
Unlike vibration models, submersible pumping units of the Vodomet series do not create turbulences in the water that raise silt and sand from the bottom.
Acceptable cost, since the pumps are of domestic production.
High performance and efficiency.
The units can work even in dirty water containing sand, silt or clay within 2-5 kg/m³.
Due to the washed motor (water circulates between the stator shell and the unit housing), the electric motor is effectively cooled.
Another significant advantage is the use of two separate sealing parts in the design. They not only protect the electric motor from high pressure, but also ensure its tightness and separate oil filling of the internal parts.
In models of the PROF series, the membrane and seal are protected (this function is not provided in other units).

Important to know: pumps must be lowered into the shaft of a hydraulic structure on steel cables. This is the only way to be sure of the reliability of fixation.

Varieties

All pumps of the Vodomet series can be divided into two types:

well unit;
borehole pump.

Dzhileks brand well pumps are suitable for use in relatively shallow structures (8-10 m). They can also be used in open reservoirs and various water tanks.

The main condition for the operation of such a unit is sufficient dimensions of the tank, well or reservoir. The thing is that it is necessary to install not only the pumping unit there, but also the float switch.

Many reviews say that the Vodomet well pump differs from the downhole unit in a number of advantages:

The efficiency of such a device is much higher. Consequently, submersible pumps for wells with the same technical characteristics will give greater productivity than similar downhole equipment.
They are less sensitive to dirty, silty or sandy water than well pumps.
In such models, it is not necessary to use protection against operation in the absence of water, since there is a simple float switch.
The price of such units is in the range of $ 90-130, which is lower than the cost of pumping equipment for wells.

Models

Submersible pumping units of the Vodomet series are produced in various modifications. All of them are different technical parameters and power. Usually the marking of pumps of this brand looks like this - 55/50A (there may be other combinations of numbers). The letter designation "A" indicates that the pumping equipment is equipped with a float switch that produces automatic shutdown in the absence of water. The numbers in the designation indicate such characteristics:

The first number is the flow rate of the pumping equipment at the outlet. It is measured in l/min. This value is determined with fully open taps, in conditions where there is no resistance to the movement of water.
The second number is the maximum head that can be reached with fully screwed taps. Measured in meters.

Based on the marking, we can draw the following conclusions about the operation of units of various modifications:

Deep pumps 60/32 with a flow rate of 60 liters per minute will work more efficiently in water intake facilities with a small debit. At the same time, the performance of the hydraulic structure should not be lower than the performance of the pumping equipment. Otherwise, the pump can quickly pump all the water from the water intake and will work "dry". This can lead to failure of the unit.
A device marked 60/52 can provide water consumption of 35-40 liters per minute (more than 2 m³ per hour). This is equal to four faucets open at the same time.
A Gilex brand pump marked 60/72 with a similar water flow will provide a stronger pressure. Such units allow you to move water over longer distances, so they are suitable if the source is away from home.
The 115 liters per minute borehole pump is suitable for use in medium to high production wells. In this case, the debit of a hydraulic structure can be about 4 m³ per hour. Submersible pumping equipment model range 115/115 is one of the most powerful devices. The power of such pumps reaches 2200 kW.
For water supply of multi-storey buildings, it is better to use units with a flow rate of 150 l / min. They can only be installed in hydraulic structures with high performance. It is also better to use them when the water flow is more than 4 m³ per hour.

How to choose?

Of course, you can make a choice of a Water Jet pump model based on customer reviews, but it’s still worth doing a simple calculation yourself. To determine the required pressure of pumping equipment, it is necessary to take into account the required pressure in consumer taps. It is important not to forget about possible pressure losses in the pipeline, as well as the height difference between the consumer and the source.

if this value is less than 5 m, then you can use a pumping unit with a pressure not higher than 35 m. Submersible pumping equipment Vodomet 55/35 is suitable for this purpose;
if from the water mirror to the earth's surface within 5-25 m, you can buy a pump with a pressure of 40-50 m, for example, a pumping unit Vodomet 60/52;
at a distance of 25-45 m, it is better to use a model with a pressure indicator in the range of 60-75 m. For these purposes, a submersible device Water cannon 60/72 is suitable;
if from the water surface to the top of the earth 45-60 m, it is better to choose more powerful units with a pressure of 90 to 150 m. The device of the 115/115 model range will cope well with this task.

Operation and possible breakdowns

Since pumping equipment is completely submerged in water, it works in extreme conditions. Despite constant improvement, the pump can fail. The most common causes of breakdowns can be such phenomena:

If the installation and use of the unit was carried out without following the recommendations and instructions of the manufacturer, then there is a high probability of a breakdown.
Voltage fluctuations in the network can lead to the failure of pumping equipment.
If the unit is constantly pumping very dirty water with a high content of sand particles, this will accelerate its wear and failure.

Important: a guarantee of a long service life deep pump– correct installation in the hydraulic structure. In this case, the diameter of the casing pipe must be at least 100 mm. The unit must be completely submerged in water, but no more than 1.5 m from the bottom of the water intake.

To protect the well from foreign objects, the upper part of the casing string is closed with a special cap. To prevent freezing of water in winter period a caisson is constructed above the upper part of the casing pipe, and the pipeline is connected and laid to the house at a mark located below the freezing point of the soil.

Pumps of the Vodomet series are lowered into the well, suspended on a strong cable, to which it is attached on the sides power cable and a water hose. The cable is securely fixed at the top.

Vodomet pumps are submersible multi-stage devices of the Russian company Dzhileks, designed to provide autonomous water supply to houses and watering plots.

Production is located in Klimovsk, Moscow region.

Equipment Features

The equipment of this brand is a range of household appliances of various sizes and different capacities, so you can choose a model that will provide the required amount of water.

Advantages of submersible pumps:

work quietly;
are small in size;
do not "trouble up" water, unlike vibration ones;
small size;
low price;
high efficiency;
reviews of submersible pumps Vodomet are mostly positive - there are practically no negative ones, which is also a significant indicator;
the ability to work in water with a significant amount of sand or clay (from 2 to 5 kg / m 3).

Water pumps Vodomet, designed specifically for Russian operating conditions, are of two types:

wells;
borehole (deep).

What are their differences?

Pumps for wells Dzhileks Vodomet are designed for use in relatively shallow wells (8-10 m), tanks or open water.

A prerequisite for the operation of such a pump is the sufficient width of the reservoir so that not only the pump, but also the float switch can fit there.

The water cannon pump for the well has obvious benefits before the well:

greater efficiency, which means, all other things being equal, the submersible water jet pump for wells will have a greater performance than the water jet pump for a well;
less sensitivity to dirty, "sandy" water;
the presence of a simple float switch, thanks to which there is no need to install protection against "dry" operation;
low price - from 9,000 to 13,000 rubles.

The submersible water pump for wells is smaller in size and is designed for extracting water from narrow (from 100 mm) and deep wells, lifting water from a considerable depth (usually the depth of wells is from 40 m).

The price of pumps for water jet wells is slightly higher than the price of well pumps - from 10,000 to 24,000 rubles.

About manufacturer's models

Submersible pumps Vodomet are available in several modifications, differing in power and other technical characteristics. Pumps for wells are marked as follows: pump Vodomet 55/35A, 55/50A, 55/75A, 150/30A, 150/45A, 150/60A.

Here, the letter "A" indicates that the pump is equipped with an automatic float switch.

Pumps for wells have the following designations: Water jet pump 40/50, 40/75, 60/32, 55/35, 55/50, 55/75, 55/90, 110/110, 115/115.

The first number indicates the pump's maximum outlet flow (l/min). This flow rate is determined with open taps and no resistance to water movement.
The second number is the maximum head (m), which develops the device with fully closed taps.

For example, the submersible pump Vodomet 60/32 delivers up to 60 liters of water per minute with a free spout, and when the water consumption taps are closed, it can create a pressure of up to 32 m. This unit costs almost 6800 rubles.

Based on the technical characteristics, we can say that:

Water jet pumps with a maximum possible flow rate of 60 l/min will work most efficiently in water supply sources with a small flow rate (the amount of water that a source can give per unit time). In this case, the flow rate of the source must be no less than the performance of the pump, otherwise the pump may pump out all the water in the well (well), and begin to draw in silt or work “dry”, which can lead to its breakdown.In real conditions, a submersible pump Vodomet 60/52 at a price of about 8000 r can provide a consumption of 35-40 l / min (more than 2 m 3 / hour) - up to 4 consumer taps at the same time. Pump submersible water cannon 60/72 at the price of 10,000 r will give a stronger pressure at the same flow rate. Thanks to this, with the help of such a pump it is possible to move water over a greater distance.
Pumps Vodomet with the highest flow rate of 115 l / min, provide for use in wells with medium and high flow rates, with a possible water flow rate of up to 65 l / min (about 4 m 3 / h). Submersible pump Vodomet 115/115 is one of the most powerful borehole pumps in the line. Its power is about 2200 kW, and the price is 16,000 rubles.
Pumps Vodomet with a flow rate of up to 150 l / minute are necessary for the water supply of large houses. Such pumps can only be used in wells with a high flow rate, and their use is advisable at high water flow rates - more than 4 m 3 / h.

More accurate data for selection is easy to calculate on your own. The required pressure of the pump is the sum of the values of the required pressure in the taps of consumers, possible pressure losses in pipelines and the height difference between the source and consumers.

Roughly, the maximum pump head can be determined by measuring the distance from ground level to the water level in the reservoir:

if the specified distance is less than 5 meters, then a pump with a head of up to 35 m is suitable. For example, a submersible pump Vodomet 55/35;
if the distance is from 5 to 25 m, then a device with a declared head of 40 or 50 m is suitable. For example, a submersible pump Vodomet 60/52;
if the distance is 25 - 45 m, you should choose a model with a head of 60 or 75 m. For example, a submersible pump Vodome 60/72;
if the distance is from 45 to 60 m, it is better to choose a device with a pressure of 90-150 m. For example, a submersible pump Vodomet 115/115.

Device Reviews

Water pumps Vodomet are very popular with owners of private houses and summer cottages, so a variety of reviews have been accumulated about pumps for Vodomet wells.

Since the submersible pump for the water jet well is not deprived of attention and there are enough reviews about it - let's give a few for an example.

Maxim Viktorovich, 41 years old, Podolsk:

I have had a submersible water pump for the fifth year. Installed in a well at a depth of 25 meters. It works and works, the pressure is normal, only sometimes there is not enough water for everyone.

At first, I thought that my sandy well would "kill" the Vodomet well pump in a couple of years. I don’t know about others, but everything suits me. I'm thinking of looking at a more powerful model.

Maria and Alexander Semenov, Kursk:

Considered different variants for supplying water to the country house. They chose between Ukrainian Aquarius and Russian Dzhileks. Aquarius, they say, is very sensitive to sand, a remote condenser is also inconvenient. In general, we settled on submersible pump Water cannon 60/52.

It turned out that it gives 52 l / min only in ideal conditions, but in fact it comes out two times less. Nobody warned us about this. Would have known in advance — bought more powerful.

Mikhail Viktorovich, 61 years old, Ufa:

Reliable, good device. A submersible well pump Vodomet has been installed in the well for more than three years. It extracts water from eight meters and in a straight line about 35 meters more. Disadvantages - it is bad to connect through the RCD (often knocks out) and the cables are short.

About the device

The pump, completely immersed in water, works in very difficult conditions. Despite research, testing and the latest developments, these devices often fail. The causes of breakdowns are very diverse, but the main ones are:

installation and operation of the pump in violation of the manufacturer's recommendations;
voltage drops;
dirty, sandy water;
mechanical wear of parts of the mechanism - housing, blades.

In order for the Water Jet water pump to work properly for as long as possible, it must be installed correctly. So, when installing a pump in a well, it is necessary to mount it in casing pipe from inside diameter not less than 100 mm.

The upper part of the pipe is closed with a cap to prevent foreign objects from entering the well.

To prevent the device from freezing in winter, a closing well is installed above the well, and the main pipe to the house is buried in the ground below the freezing level. The pump is installed so that it is lowered into the water, but not closer than 1.5 m to the bottom of the reservoir.

The schematic diagram of connecting the Water Jet pump is no different from the nuances of installing any other pump for a well - tied to a cable, it sinks to the bottom of the well. A power cable and a hose are attached to the cable with brackets, through which water will flow.

After the device is at the bottom, the cable should be firmly fixed at the top.

A big plus is that do-it-yourself repair of the Water Cannon pump is quite possible. For a successful repair, you will definitely need spare parts to replace the damaged ones.

If "guilty" - circuit diagram water jet pump - the capacitor may have failed. If the water from the tap began to flow worse, the filter may be clogged or the hose is damaged (and the water simply flows back into the well).

The internal structure, the procedure for disassembling and repairing the Water Jet pumps are indicated in each instruction for the device.

However, it should be noted that it is not recommended to engage in such work on your own - despite the simplicity of the design, its disassembly and assembly (especially) requires some experience.
