Why Use a Screw Pump?

The use of Screw Pumps in wastewater treatment plants has gained
wide
acceptance because of their efficiency in handling large volumes of
liquid
at relatively low lifts.  The overall advantages are:

A.    The Screw Pump has the ability to handle
variable
capacity with a simple constant speed drive.


B.    The Screw Pump operates at or above 70% efficiency
for 2/3 of its operating capacity.


C.    There is no increase in pumping head caused by
deep influent wells which are required for centrifugal pumps.


D.    There is less head required with a Screw Pump
which means lower horsepower because there are no friction losses


        created by pipe, valves,
and fittings.


E.    The Screw Pump is a true non-clog operation;
pre-screening
is not required.


F.    The simplicity of the Screw Pump installation
provides reliable operation with little operator attention.
