Three Phase Irrigation Pump
The most important part of irrigation
is the three phase irrigation pump. When you are trying to make
the irrigation system as efficient as possible, the proper three
phase irrigation pump must be selected. The three phase
irrigation pump should be selected to match the requirements of the
water source and of course the water piping system.
There are several different types of
three phase irrigation pumps to choose from. There is the
centrifugal, submersible, turbine, propeller and booster pumps
available. The most widely used three phase irrigation pump
used in the industry today, however is the centrifugal three phase
irrigation pump.
The centrifugal
three phase irrigation pump uses an
impeller to spin the water quickly and forceful in the chamber,
This spinning action on the three phase irrigation pump moves the
water through the pump by means of centrifugal force. They are capable
of having more than one impeller and chamber. The water is them
passed from one impeller to another one in which the pressure is
increased each time this happens. There must always be water in the
intake pipe and in the chamber when the three phase irrigation pump
is started. A three phase irrigation pump must be primed by
adding water to the intake pipe when it is first initially used. Once
the water is put into the intake pipe on the three phase irrigation
pump, then it shouldn't need to be primed again.
The three phase irrigation pump
was designed to operate with three phase power. Since utility companies
can charge anywhere from $50,000 to $90,000 per mile to have three phase
power installed, a phase converter would be a less expensive way to
achieve three phase power. Basically a phase converter is a device that
can convert single phase power into three phase power. You actually are
getting better quality three phase power with less harmonics and
vibrations with a phase converter, than you can get from the utility
company. You don't have the worry of getting interruptions like power
surges from other people running their equipment off of the utility
companies power. A true three phase converter will have it's own 3-phase
rotary generator with power factor correction. This results in the
three phase irrigation pump getting a balanced, safe and efficient
form of true three phase power.
One of the best phase converters in
the industry today is manufactured by a company called ACE
Phase
Converter. They have been in business for over 25
years providing true three phase power solutions for customers
worldwide. Their phase converters are made with the highest quality
materials such as 100% copper windings and wiring and they are all made
in the United States. When you know that you are getting a quality
product from ACE Phase Converter, you can be assured that your three
phase irrigation pump will operating indefinitely, up to 35 years or
more. They stand behind all of their products by offering the consumer a
10 year warranty. ACE Phase Converter has the market on true three phase
power.
