Product Overview

  The ZW-type non-clogging sewage discharge self-priming pump is a newly designed product successfully developed on the basis of repeated research into similar technologies both domestically and abroad. This pump integrates self-priming capability with non-clogging sewage discharge in a single unit. It adopts an axial reflux design and features a unique configuration of the pump body and impeller flow passages, enabling it to function like a conventional self-priming clear-water pump—eliminating the need for bottom valves or priming procedures—and simultaneously capable of handling sewage containing large solid particles and long-fiber impurities without getting clogged. It is widely used in municipal sewage discharge projects, manure treatment in pond and aquaculture systems, sedimentation of waste mine residues, and as a versatile impurity pump for various chemical media in light industry, papermaking, food processing, chemical engineering, pharmaceuticals, power generation, pulp and paper, and mixed materials.

  Compared with similar domestic products, the ZW-type sewage self-priming pump features a simple structure, excellent self-priming performance (with a self-priming height of up to 5 meters), strong sewage discharge capacity, high efficiency and energy savings, and convenient maintenance (it can completely replace WQ and QW submersible sewage pumps). Its various technical indicators are among the best in China and have reached internationally advanced levels. It boasts promising prospects for broad market application.

Working Principle of the ZW Non-Clogging Sewage Self-Priming Pump

  The ZW non-clogging sewage self-priming pump consists primarily of a pump body, an impeller, a rear cover, a mechanical seal, a pump shaft, a bearing housing, an inlet valve, a gas-liquid separation pipe, a water-injection valve, and inlet and outlet pipes. The pump’s structural diagram is shown in the figure above.

  Working principle of the ZW self-priming sewage pump: The pump body is equipped with a liquid storage chamber, which is connected to the pump’s working chamber via an upper return port and a lower circulation port, forming an axial-flow external-mixing system. After the pump stops running, a certain volume of liquid remains stored in the pump’s internal cavity. When the pump is started, the liquid stored in the cavity, under the action of the impeller, is thrown upward along with air. The liquid then flows back into the working chamber through the mesh of the gas-liquid separation tube, while the gas is discharged from the pump, creating a certain degree of vacuum inside the pump and thus achieving self-priming capability.

 

Product Features of the ZW Non-Clogging Sewage Self-Priming Pump

  1. The ZW self-priming pump features a double-vane impeller design, significantly enhancing its ability to pass through debris.

  2. The mechanical seal of the ZW self-priming sewage pump adopts a new friction pair and operates continuously while immersed in an oil chamber.

  3. The overall structure is compact, small in size, low in noise, and delivers significant energy-saving performance. It’s easy to maintain and convenient for users to replace components.

  4. The automatic control cabinet can automatically start and stop the pump according to the required liquefaction changes, eliminating the need for dedicated personnel supervision and making it extremely convenient to use.

  5. It can be equipped with various installation methods according to user needs, greatly facilitating installation and maintenance—eliminating the need for personnel to enter the sewage pit for these tasks.

  6. It can be used within the design limits while ensuring that the motor is not overloaded.

  7. When the ZW self-priming sewage pump is equipped with an outdoor-rated motor, there’s no need to build a pump room—instead, it can be directly installed and used outdoors, saving on costs.

 

Application of ZW Non-Clogging Sewage Self-Priming Pump Product

  The ZW-type sewage self-priming pump is suitable for applications including the discharge of heavily polluted wastewater from industrial and commercial facilities, sewage pumping stations in residential areas, drainage systems at municipal wastewater treatment plants, drainage stations in civil defense systems, water supply equipment at tap water plants, sewage disposal in hospitals and hotels, construction sites for municipal engineering projects, auxiliary equipment for mining operations, rural biogas digesters, agricultural irrigation systems, and other industries. It can handle sewage containing solid particles and debris, as well as clean water and media with mild corrosivity.

 

Use of the ZW Non-Clogging Sewage Self-Priming Pump

  1. Before use, check whether the pump’s rotation direction is correct and whether its rotation is smooth.

  2. Unscrew the liquid-filling screw plug located on the top of the pump body, fill the reservoir completely with liquid, and then tighten the screw plug securely. Thereafter, no further liquid refilling is required when starting up the pump. Do not start the pump if the reservoir is insufficiently filled; otherwise, the pump may fail to operate properly and the mechanical seal could easily be damaged.

  3. When starting up, first open the outlet flow control valve to facilitate the discharge of gas during the self-priming process. After the pump has started, adjust the opening of the outlet flow control valve so that the pressure gauge reading falls within the specified range (refer to the pressure control range table for various pump types). Avoid operating the pump at the lower limit of the specified range to prevent motor overload and burnout due to excessive shaft power, or cavitation caused by excessive flow, which could disrupt normal pump operation, induce severe vibration, and generate noise.

  4. During operation, regularly check the temperature rise of both the pump and the motor. If you notice any noise or other abnormal sounds, stop the machine immediately for inspection and troubleshooting before resuming operation.

  5. When shutting down the pump, first close the outlet flow control valve and then stop the pump to prevent insufficient liquid volume in the pump body due to siphonage.

  6. Perform regular refueling and maintenance. If the pump is to be left unused for an extended period, disassemble it, clean it, apply lubricant, and store it properly.

Q

What is your typical delivery time?

A

Models in stock can be shipped the next day at the latest. All others are custom-made, with lead times generally ranging from 7 to 90 days depending on the product size and project specifics. Please contact our sales manager for details: 0731-88632200 。

Q

Do you have centrifugal pumps in stock?

A

Centrifugal pumps come in numerous models and configurations. Except for a small number of high-volume, standard models that are in stock, the vast majority are not stocked and are customized products. We need to select a pump based on your site's flow rate, head, media temperature, pH value, and installation conditions, etc., to determine the pump model and configuration before we can submit an order to the factory for production.

Q

What information should I provide when requesting a quote?

A

Generally, to obtain an accurate quotation, we recommend providing us with the following information: pump flow rate, head, on-site operating voltage and frequency, temperature, pH value, and solid particle content of the fluid being conveyed, and on-site installation conditions (horizontal or vertical installation), etc.

If you are not sure, don't worry, our business managers will assist you in determining this.

Q

What products do you mainly produce?

A

Zhonglian Pump Industry manufactures various large industrial centrifugal pumps. Main products include: self-balancing multi-stage pumps, multi-stage centrifugal pumps, single-stage centrifugal pumps, split-case pumps, chemical pumps, submersible pumps, pipeline pumps, long-shaft pumps, condensate pumps, etc.

Q

Could you help me with the selection?

A

Certainly! If the water pump model is not selected accurately, there will be big problems. If you choose a smaller one, it won't meet your needs; if you choose a larger one, it will waste electricity and fuel, increasing your costs.

Q

Why is it so slow to get a price quote?

A

Because centrifugal pumps are non-standard customized products with many models, the price range is also very large. Even for the same model, the price difference is also very large due to different materials and configurations. Taking the most common water pump accessory—the impeller—as an example, the price of a stainless steel impeller is several times that of a cast iron impeller. Therefore, we need to clarify the relevant information to give you an accurate price. Normally, if you provide relatively comprehensive information, we can quote within 5 minutes.
