Hello, can't these types of pumps suck from a distance longer than 8 meters? If he can't, why? The length in question is 35 meters. thank you in advance
Dear Mustafa, no it can not. What actually happens when you lift fluid is that you are making vacuum in suction pipeline, and atmospheric pressure is pushing the liquid into the pump. Since atmospheric pressure converted to meters (at sea level) is 10.3m, that is theoreticaly maximum. But in practical, you have losses due to friction in the pipeline, and I would say 6 to 7m maybe maximum.
great stuff :)
Pump direction is wrong. The pump should be facing the well, the suction hose should go down directly to the well at the shortest distance.
