WELLPOINT EDUCTOR – EIETTORE – EJECTOR

WELLPOINT EDUCTOR / EJECTOR

In particular morphological and operational situations, it may be necessary to use lifting rods over 6 meters long, leading to the exclusion of the traditional wellpoint system. Unlike the latter, the eductor system doesn’t use atmospheric pressure to raise the water and therefore, can theoretically suck water from any depth. It is based on the circulation of pressurized water through an ejector, located at the base of each needle. By accelerating the speed of the flow, the ejector causes a depression in the area behind it, occupied by the wellpoint filter, and therefore the raising of a water flow.
The system is characterized by the following differences compared to the wellpoint system:

  • The power supply unit must have high prevalence characteristics
  • The circuit consists of two manifolds, one for the power supply and one for the suction
  • The lifting rods consist of two pipes: one for supply and one for delivery
