Correct
Q: Why is it a good idea to make a well where the groundwater level is as high as possible?
A: The shorter the distance is to the water the less expensive it is to make the borehole and subsequently to pump the water to the surface
Correct
Q: What is the most effective way to stay updated on your pump’s condition?
A: Remote online monitoring
Correct
Q: On top of energy-efficient pump operation, how does a frequency drive benefit your installation?
A: It comes with a built-in motor protection
Correct
Q: What should the minimum flow past the motor be to ensure sufficient motor cooling?
A: 0,15 m/s
Correct
Q: What can be done to the well if sand continues to enter a well after the well development has been carried out?
A: The well driller can try to run the pump at its maximum capacity in short periods of time over a couple of days
Correct
Q: How does over- and under voltage, phase unbalance and phase loss impact the pump motor?
A: It raises the motor temperature, reducing the lifetime
Correct
Q: What is well development?
A: A process that ensures that the well’s sand filter has been improved so the well produces clean, sand-free water
Correct
Q: By-pass control is an efficient way of performance regulating a pump but what is the downside of the process?
A: Energy is wasted as the pump continues to run at full speed
