Orbit GW0301 FE Borehole Pump Element / 13mm Shaft, 40mm Outlet
2829
The Orbit GW0301 FE is an Orbit GW0301 FE progressive cavity (helical rotor) borehole pump element for a 13mm line shaft and 40mm column.
Applications
- Deep and low-yield boreholes
- Sandy, silty and gassy water
- Farm, village and stock-water supply
- Windmill, engine or electric-motor driven installations
Features
- Positive displacement helical rotor and stator – steady flow at any depth
- Hard-chrome rotor and moulded nitrile stator
- Handles sand and abrasive water that damages centrifugal pumps
- Driven from surface by a line shaft – no motor in the borehole
- FE design with improved efficiency
