Hybrid Pumps
Selwood Hybrids
Selwood’s Specialist Submersible
Centre has developed a range of
pumps to give the “best of both
worlds”.
A selection of electric submersible
pumps have been mounted onto
a skid chassis, fitted with key
components from the unique
Selwood Selprime® vacuum system,
and controlled by a variable speed
drive to ensure that the pump
doesn’t run faster than required or
more often than needed. Power can
be taken from either a generator set
or a suitable adjacent 3 phase mains
supply.
The hybrid concept is ideal when
dealing with high flows from small
chambers that preclude the use of
conventional submersible pumps
and where space in the vicinity
deems a conventional diesel suction
pump unpractical. Much like a
conventional suction pump, the
unit will automatically prime as and
when required then discharge flow
to a selected point. However, unlike
a conventional pump, the unit is
smaller, lighter and considerably more
power efficient.
