General Information

:

The unit consists of a specially designed axial flow impeller which is secured to a pump shaft and encased inside a 19 cm diameter mild steel discharge tube .The impeller has two mild steel sheet-metal vanes welded to a threaded hub and has an average pitch of 20 degree. The impeller shaft runs in a long nylon bearing housed in mild steel tube which is welded to the pump assembly at an inclination of 30 degree. The pump can be coupled to the power tiller engine pulley through a flexible shaft supported by a frame near the power tiller engine and it is aligned perfectly by fixing the pump in desired position through hinge and adjustable frame. Behind the axial flow impeller is a set of diffusion vanes which serve to straighten the spiral flow from the impeller for improved efficiency.
