Pumps for the mining industry

One of the most important requirements for trouble-free extraction operations is pumping the accumulated mine water out of the working area. Mine operators all over the world rely on single suction and double suction submersible motor pumps from ANDRITZ to carry out this important task. Thousands of our submersible pumps have been installed in mines around the world, working under severest conditions, including the largest submersible dewatering pumps in the world.

ANDRITZ submersible pumps are used in all areas of water procurement, distribution, and dewatering, e.g. in deep wells and in waterworks, for mining applications. Dewatering with completely floodable submersible motor pumps provides the most economical and maintenance-free solution. No underground pumping station is required, for example, and the heat of the motor is taken away by the water pumped to the surface (less cooling required). Our maintenance-free, innovative submersible pumps are the response to extremely stringent demands for operational reliability, service life, and efficiency.

• Submersible motor pumps

ANDRITZ rewindable submersible motors are the ideal drives for submersible deep well pumps, bottom intake pumps, seawater lift pumps, and for subsea machinery for mining and deep mining.

Our submersible motors are equipped with an innovative modular cooling technology (MCT), enhancing durability and also being the most efficient possible means of cooling submersible motors. Optimized cooling circulation featuring specially designed cooling channels ensures that heat is absorbed where it is generated. Interior permanent magnet motors (IPM) are the new premium class submersible motors with highest efficiencies over a wide performance range. Additionally, they can achieve a much higher performance from small wells.
