Deep Quarry Water Pumps

Major problem in mine and stone sector is water pumping from deep quarry pits. During rainy season it is too much problem. Due to very minimum knowledge in pumping solutions all mines people facing much more production losses.

We have better technologies and many solutions for this problem. Based on requirement of our customer we can provide suitable pump sets with minimum power consumption when compare to existing pump sets already in use.

Normally Quarry water is not a pure water. It mixed with slurry and small stone particles due to explosion process to break the rocks. But markets motors are designed to run with pure water only, Dirty water with sand particle easily damage its impellers, bearings and shafts, which leads often motor failures.

To avoid all above problems, we have designed special pump sets to withstand slurry liquids than any market pump sets.

In the Pit — 20 HP Stainless Steel High Discharge Pumpset

Thumba 20 HP stainless steel high discharge submersible pumpset standing in a quarry pit surrounded by blast rubble and slurry water

The 20 HP stainless steel pumpset in the pit it was built for — slurry water and blast rubble all round it.

Thumba 20 HP quarry pumpset shown in two parts on the quarry floor — the multistage stainless steel pump section and the motor section with cabling

Pump section and motor shown separately — the set is built to couple and uncouple quickly, because it has to come out of the pit for every blast.

Stainless steel construction, wear resistant against dirty water — see the 20 HP row in the model table below: 180 ft pit depth, 10,00,000 litres per day, 4 inch delivery.

Special Features in our Pumps:

Very less weight suitable for easy handling even by single person. For example our 2 HP 200 feet pump is 30 Kg only. One person can easily fix it and remove it from pit. It can pump 1,00,000 Liters per day with 2 inch delivery hose.
We give user friendly quick release couplings in various sizes for one touch connection and removal. 1 or 2 persons can easily fix or separate within ten minutes. This facility is very much essentials due to temporary erection of the motor pump sets for each and every explosion times.
Very less power consumption save 3 times power cost as well as running time.
For big quarries multiple motor erection is possible with less power and less weight motors.
