It enable one to lower the groundwater table
adequately in cohesive and low permeable soils.
Water is pumped off directly from sumps (ditches)
along the toes of the slopes of the excavation
works.
The suction hose with strainer is merely placed
in the sump and the collected water is primed
and discharged. This makes the open
dewatering system easy to install and simple to
operate.
The open dewatering system utilizes
1. self priming
2. vacuum assisted centrifugal pumps,
1.Well point dewatering systems enable
one to lower the groundwater table
adequately for deep and large construction
sites.
2.It has proven to be a very flexible system.
The water from high permeable soils is
pumped from well points, installed along
the trench of the site.
3.The well points are jetted and spaced to
obtain an efficient drawdown against
lowest capacity.
.
4.The well points with integral strainers are
joined to transparent flexible hoses, which are
connected by quick release couplers to the ring
main header pipeline.
5.Wellpoint dewatering is done either by gravity
or vacuum
Deep well dewatering systems enable one to
lower the groundwater table to a
considerable depth. A submersible pump is
installed at the bottom of the well, of which
the casing generally has a minimum
diameter of 150 mm. The discharge pipes
from the submersible pumps of a number of
adjacent wells are connected to a common
delivery main. The water is raised from the
well by a multi-staged pump
Sump Pumps are used in applications where
excess water must be pumped away from a
particular area. They generally sit in a basin or
sump that collects this excess water This
classification includes bilge and ballast pumps,
centrifugal pumps, cantilever pumps, sewage
pump pumps, submersible sump pumps and
utility pumps, among others
