Self priming Pump
The self priming action relies on the principle of injection. The
pump has to be filled with liquid once. When it has been
switched on, the air (or gas) is evacuated from the suction line.
The evacuated air is mixed with the liquid contained in the
impeller.
Due to centrifugal force, liquid/air mixture flows to the upper half
of pump casing.
The de-aerated liquid has a higher specific gravity than the
liquid with air contained in the volute. This causes the liquid to
return to the volute, where it is aerated & de-aerated again.
The air is evacuated from the suction line & liquid level in this
piping rises.
Once all air is evacuated, the pump starts working as a normal
centrifugal pump.

Applications

Suitable pump for pumping

 muddy water, sewage, polluted liquids including solids etc.
 applications where priming & foot valve is to be avoided.

Industry wise applications:

SPbloc

 Industrial: pumping petroleum products, chemicals, effluents,

Sewage, ash-water etc.
 Civil Construction: Dewatering foundation, trenches and pits.
 Mobile Machinery: Cooling water for marine engines &
showels.
 Public utilities: Sewage pumping.
 Tiles & Marble industry: for handling waste water.
