Can Yeomans wet-pit submersible pumps be operated in a non-submerged or partially-submerged condition?
A simple “yes” or “no” answer to this question would be misleading at best. There are many considerations that must be evaluated in order to determine the minimum submergence requirements. In addition to motor cooling considerations, there are important hydraulic issues that should be evaluated. To help address these issues, we have prepared the following technical paper which we hope will be of interest to you: Submersible Pumps – Minimum Submergence Considerations.
