Definition of Submersible Motor:-

A motor whose housing and terminal box is designed so that the motor can run under water (or another allowable liquid) -- completely submerged at a temperature of water not above 25 C.

Working principle of submersible motor: Working principle of submersible motor same as Induction motor. When the 3-phase stator winding s are fed by a 3-phase supply. magnetic flux produce in stator at constant magnitude, but rotating at synchronous speed. The flux passes through the air gap, Sweeps past the rotor surface and so cut the rotor conductors which, as yet are stationary. Due to the relative speed between the rotating flux and the stationary conductors, an e.m.f is induced in rotor, according to faradays laws of electro magnetic induction .The frequency of the induced e.m.f is the same as the supply frequency. Its magnitude is proportional to the relative velocity between the flux and the conductors and its direction is given by Fleming's right-hand rule. Since the rotor bars or conductors form a closed circuit, rotor current is produced whose direction ,as given by Lenzs law, is such as to oppose the very cause producing it. In this case, the cause which produces the rotor current is the relative velocity between the rotating flux of the stator and the stationary rotor conductor. Hence, to reduce the relative speed, the rotor starts running in the same direction.

Construction parts detail of submersible motor:STATOR Stator core Stator winding Upper bracket Lower bracket Bush bearing Motor base ROTOR Rotor shaft Rotor core Rotor bar(conductor) End ring

Stator core:-

In this company stator core was fabricated from the cold rolled steel lamination and thickness variation of the lamination was 0.53 mm to 0.5 mm according to design parameter. The slots of motor are 24. Motor is design for two poles.

Stator winding:-

According to rating of motor two types of winding wire for the motors were used like. (1) P.V.C. Insulated Wire. (2) Polly Proper Insulated Wire. The wire is having excellent mechanical strength to prevent any damage during its insertion in the slots. It provides more nos. of the turns of the same conductor size due to its lower thickness of insulation as compared to PVC insulated Wire. Thus it is more suitable for low voltage and higher motor rating winding data.

Upper bracket:-

Lower bracket:-

Upper and lower bracket are fitted on upper and lower side of Stator body. Brackets support provided to rotor shaft. Above brackets made of cast iron material.

Bush bearing:Bush bearing made of mostly bronze material. This bearing is water lubricated in the motor. Bush bearing are fitted in lower and upper Brackets for support to the rotor shaft.

Motor base:-

Thrust Bearing in Submersible Motors:-

The " thrust" bearing in the motor is a fairly simple device, which consists of a resin fiber ring, which rubs against the underside of the Stainless steel Thrust Bearing Support plate. These bearings are not continuously rated and only take light loads.

CABLE JOINTING:-

Connect the leads as per red, yellow, blue in required connection with the help of butt connectors. And ensure all joints should be tightening by crimping pier as per I.S. Start tapping as per figure second apply single layer of rubber compound tape in clockwise on joint the apply as per I.S. A single layer of PVC insulation tape in clockwise follow the same tapping procedure on all the leads then makes all the together as per figure 3. and apply single layer of rubber compound tape in anticlockwise start from tape in cable insulation in such a way to cover all the leads to protect from inside water of cable then similarly apply PVC insulating tape in clockwise tape.

Testing of submersible motor: In this company different types of test in three phase motors are below. 1. Hydro pressure test

2.
3. 4. 5.

Continuity test
Insulation test High voltage test Rotation check

1. Hydro pressure test:The testing of seals consists of visually checking each chamber for well fluid or water. We then refill each chamber and pressure test the seal on each chambers o-rings. In this test pressure is created 10 cm/kg2

2. Continuity test:Connect the two wires of megger between two phases of the motor it shows zero resistance. Take this test with all the phase one by one. It should show zero resistance.

Insulation test: Apparatus: - megger 500/1000 V. Procedure: Two terminals short of the megger instrument then check the reading of the megger when press button will be show be show zero. Keep the negative terminal of megger in water or land. Keep coil in water minimum 30 minutes then the connect the +Ve terminal in the terminal of the coil. I.R. is show minimum 50-mega ohms resistance. If the insulation Resistance is indicating more than 200 mega ohms this reading note

High voltage test: In this company high voltage test is done by at 3000 volts of the motor. The one terminal of the high voltage in the water and another terminal gives the windings for charging, then this terminal discharge in the water.

The test voltage is raised and is maintained for specific time. After the The specified time, the voltage is rapidly decreased but the voltage is not interrupted suddenly to avoid the possibility of switching transients, which may affect the result.

Rotation check: To determine the correct rotation, connect the motor to the supply (Ensure that motor is filled with water). Check the rotation of the motor. It should coincide with the marked arrow.

PUMP TROUBLE AND THEIR REASONS:1.VIBRATION: 1.Inadequate water level. 2.Impeller or rotors are unbalanced.

3.Shaft bent.
4.Improper alignment. 5.Bearings worn out. 6.Improper top face of tube well pipe.

2. PUMPS TAKES TOO MUCHPOWER:1.Mechanical friction. 2.Mis-alignment 3.Low voltages.

3.LESS DISCHARGE: -

1.Motor is running in reverse direction.

2.Higher total head. 3.Inadequate water level.

4.Gas in water.
5.Low voltage. 6.Leakage in delivery parts.

4.NO CHARGE: 1.Higher total head. 2.Strainer / impeller choked. 3.Coupling broken. 4.Low speed. 5.Lowest bowl not submerged in the water. 5.JAMMING: 1.Improper assembly. 2.Mis-alignment. 3.Dry running of pump. 4.Failure of bearings.

5.Sandy tube well.

6.PUMPS DOES NOT START: -

1.Motor defective.
2.Starting equipment defective. 3.Overflow relay tripped. 4.Low voltage. 5.Jamming. 6.Fuses blown off.

Advantage of using submersible pump:1. It is easily installment and no need for foundation. 2. There is no problem in suction because it is arranged in the deep in water.

3. There is less maintenance needed in it.

4. The unit are work less noise. 5. The overall efficiency is high of the pump.

6. The power consumption are less.

7. Its operation cost are less
