LAKOS - Model PPS -Pump Protection Separators
LAKOS Pump Protection Separators (PPS) remove sand and grit that can shorten the life of a submersible or turbine water well pumps. When sand threatens the performance of a pump, PPS Separators can help solve the problem and extend the life of the pump. Using a patented centrifugal design, the PPS controls the sand from entering the pump inlet, before it can chew up impellers and bearings and other pump components. This keeps the pump operating at maximum efficiency.
- Reduced sand wear on pump impellers and bearings
- Fewer repairs and replacements
- Longer lasting pump efficiency
- Lower energy use
- Lower operating costs
- Helps maintain optimum pump yield
- Can be used with VFD (constant pressure/variable flow) systems.
- For submersible pumps with flows under 100 U.S. gpm, refer to the LAKOS SUB-K Pump Protection Sand Separator
Flow Range: 100 – 3,180 U.S. GPM (23 – 723 m³/hr)
Maximum Pressure: Up to 150 psi (10.3 bar)
Centrifugal-Action
Keep unwanted sand out of the pump without screens to clog, backwash or service.
Maintain Pump Efficiency
Saves the pump from excessive wear and Keeps pump energy costs lower.
Extend Pump Life
Extends pump life by 4x or more, reducing downtime, pump repairs and replacements.
