Who are the manufacturers of submersible pump with DC motor in India? I have a borewell in my farm. I use a 2HP AC 3Phase submersible pump which is adequate for pumping water from depth of 400' . I am now planning to install a solar power generation plant . I have been advised to replace my borewell pump with a DC motor pump to reduce the starting load on the power system. The power generation plant will be a hybrid i.e. wind + solar generation. The manufacturers tell me that the plant will charge batteries and the output will be DC.

I need help with wiring my sewage submersible pump.? I have a 1/2 hp submersible sewage pump that worked fine until I cut the piggy back plug end and the three pronged end and tried to wire them straight to the panel. Now, no matter how I try to wire it, whether with the piggy back or not, the pump will not come on. What is the problem? How do I fix it without buying a new pump? It is a Waynes pump and only 2 years old. The wiring has to be underground and needs to be wired straight and taped off or is this not the best way. The pump is in an underground concrete holding tank.
Best Place to Buy a Submersible Well Pump? I need to buy a 4 inch submersible pump for a 70 foot well this summer. I'm not sure what the gallons per minute or the voltage info is right now, but I was just wondering where the cheapest place would be to get a quality well pump? Besides checking out Lowes, Home Depot and some plumping hardware stores in town, are there reputable companies online that would sell these for wholesale cost? Thanks!! :)

I'm looking for a long term solutions for keeping bugs out of standing water in submersible sump pump? I had some water coming into my basement a few years back, so I had a sump pump installed. It is a submersible pump, so there is always a bit of standing water that stays in the bottom of the crock (18" across, 18" deep). Over time I get quite a bit of larvae and what appear to be medium-size black flies that build up in the room where the pump is located. I can go through the room every few months with a can of "flying insect" pesticide spray, which seems to help, but would like to implement a more comprehensive solution, if possible. I talked to some local hardware store employees, who only suggested covering the hole of the crock with screening to keep the bugs in the crock. Is there no way to treat the standing water with something that would prevent the larvae from forming? Thanks!
How/where can I get or replace the cable for a submersible pump? My dog chewed the wire. It is a 3 prone water resistant cord. Inside the cord I can see 3 wire ( a green, a white and a black wire). I'm scared to use my pump to pump the water of the pool cover because the cable is exposed. Any ideas in how to repair or where to get a new one?

Submersible pump, vertical versus horizontal? Will a submersible pump, the kind that you put at the bottom of a well, work if laid horizontal? The pump is to be placed in a lake. Of course a screen or filter is to be used, but i do not know or visualize the placing of the pump in a larger pipe. Would putting it inside a say 4 or 6 inch pipe, open at both ends and securing both to a stand of some sort off of the bottom of the lake be sufficent and would that work?
Can someone advise me as to what size submersible pump (galo per hour) I should buy to run a fountain I made.? The fountain is a full size old hand well pump which sits on a large flat stone with a hole to resevoir pan below. Total lift is approx 36". The hand pump outlet is 1 1/2 inches in diameter into which I installed a diffuser so water should hit inside edges of outlet and fall from pump. There is a water pail hanging below which I will make leak substantially so water returns to resevoir. I am looking to achieve a natural looking discharge of water for pump as it would when pump was operated by hand.
How does an Electrical Submersible Pump work? I have a Grade 8 science research project on water distribution (historical and modern) Soo like they used wellls, and how wells are used today. And then the whole water purification and plumbing thing.. Anyways I need to explain the ESP, like ex. the water is sucked in, then the motor pumps it, blaah blaah... Something that a grade 7/8 class'll understand.. Thanks.
I have a Grundfos Submersible pump with a Pumptrol Square D pressure switch, my water pressure fluctuates why? The tank says 75 psi and is 120 gallons. The guage on the side of the tank was down to 9% which is the lowest I seen. I have bled the air out making the pump kick in raising the water pressure, but the next time I use water it drastically falls again. I was not given any owner's manuals. There are air valves on the side of the tank and on the pipe leading into the tank from the well. Should they have caps over them? There seems to be too much water in my yard even with the recent rains from cold fronts.
Can I refill submersible sump pump with car engine oil? I opened my submersible sump pump for maintanence and accidentally drained the cooling oil. I supposed that the sump pump was previously soaked in cooling oil**. If so, when refilling, can I use car engine oil or car gear box oil, or car braking oil? N.B. 1) not the lubricating oil. 2) the cooling oil amounts to about 1 or 2 coffee cups. it is about pump oil not about engine
How do I replace a submersible water pump & install a new one that is1/2 horse, 8-10 gpm for home use? My Husband of 23 years died on Vererans Day (after being diagnoised with Lung Cancer) & I live alone. I am a 52 year widow & have no idea as to removal of old & installation of new, My finances are very tight & I can't afford to have a professional do it. I have watched my Husband do all the fixing around the house so I DO have some knowledge of just how things work. PLEASE help me. Thank you so very much. I do have a slight disability with a left crushed broken ankle from last year, but I still do the best I can, I have repaired a lot of different things around the house; but this problem I'm somewhat lost in taking care of. Again thank you very much
How can I make my own aquarium filter, using a submersible fountain pump? Is that possible? I don't want to buy one. At least, not for more than a few dollars used. I was also thinking: If I knew how to do it, I could make one that looks much better than those store-bought filters. So, I can either a) pump the water up outside the tank and through a series of filters before it spills back into the tank or b) encase the pump in sponge so it sucks the dirty water towards it and the dirt gets stuck? Are there any other methods?
