Flow sleeve directs the water flow past the motor for cooling. The PVC stand positions the motor at a 15 degree angle to keep load against motor to prevent premature failure.
Flow Sleeves are Recommended for Wells, Large Diameter, Uncased, Top Feeding & Screened Sections Franklin Electric submersible motors are designed to operate with a cooling flow of water over the motor. If the pump installation does not provide the minimum flow, a flow inducer sleeve (flow sleeve) must be used.
Conditions requiring a flow sleeve:
• Well diameter is too large to meet flow requirements.
• Pump is in an open body of water.
• Pump is in a rock well or below the well casing.
• The well is "top-feeding".
• Pump is set in or below screens or perforations.
Flow Sleeve Features:
• Range from 7 to 70 GPM of water flow between flow sleeve and submersible motor
• Rubber motor centering bumpers for even water flow along motor
• Made from corrosion resistant plastic for clean water applications
• Stainless steel fasteners
• Easy installation of industry proven long lasting 4" submersible pump and motor
