Immersible Motors--Overview
The basic design of the immersible pump/motor is a premium efficient, inverter duty, P-Base or C-Face, totally enclosed, blower cooled motor. The design prevents water infiltration along the shaft into the motor by utilizing a triple redundant sealing system, including a patented Hydroseal design. The immersible motor can withstand up to 30 feet of submergence depth for a 2 week period.

Features and Benefits
- Ease of maintenance and serviceability
- No level controls, monitors, recirculating pump or piping needed
- Excellent efficiencies
- No cooling jacket necessary
- Designed to run submerged for limited time periods
- Lower thrust due to bearing frame which means longer bearing life
- The shaft penetrates the bottom only and is sealed using a triple redundant sealing system
Immersible Bearing Frame
- Availability: 4”-30” Pumps.
- Easy Maintenance: Maintain vertically coupled
motors without having to remove the entire pump.
- Easy Service: Can be serviced by any authorized
pump house.
- Unique Sealing System: Double lip-seal with
pressurized grease cups and expellers.
- Longevity: Exceptional Shaft and Bearing Life.
Applications:
- Ideal for dry-pit applications where there is the
possibility of flood-plain type flooding events.
- Exceeds IP67 requirements for submergence.
- Can withstand up to 30 feet of submergence for a 2 week period, far exceeding industry standards
- Competitive models only allow immersion for 30 minutes at a submergence of 3 feet
