Flow Sleeves are Recommended for Wells, Large Diameter, Uncased, Top Feeding & Screened Sections.
Submersible motors are designed to operate with a cooling flow of water over the motor. If the pump installation does not provide the minimum flow, a flow inducer sleeve (flow sleeve) must be used.
Conditions requiring a flow sleeve:
- Well diameter is too large to meet flow requirements.
- Pump is in an open body of water.
- Pump is in a rock well or below the well casing.
- The well is top-feeding.
- Pump is set in or below screens or perforations.
Flow Sleeve Features:
- Range from 7 to 70 GPM of water flow between flow sleeve and submersible motor
- Rubber motor-centering bumpers for even water flow along motor
- Made from corrosion resistant plastic for clean water applications
- Stainless steel fasteners
- Easy installation of industry proven long lasting 4” submersible pump and motor
