Electric Drive Pump Sets

All Ornel Floodlifter axial flow turbine pumps and Ornel Vertical turbine pumps can be powered by Electric motors. Electric motors, in general, are bolted directly to the top of the pump set and in line with the drive shaft. The torque from the motor is transmitted through a cone ring flexible coupling. Electric motors are selected and matched to the required pump speed and in some cases Variable Speed Drives are used to achieve specific speeds.

Electric powered pump sets can be used on mains powered or generator powered sites. Electric powered pumps, on mains power, are an efficient and cost effective way of pumping water.
