Various models of industrial surface pumps are designed for pumping large volumes of water or liquids with specific properties. These pumps are installed above the liquid surface and are classified into several types:
- automatic;
- self-priming;
- pumping stations.
Automatic Industrial Surface Pumps
For optimal operation of equipment and systems, automatic surface pumps are equipped with protective automation. This automation may be integrated into the pump or supplied as a separate system. In addition to optimizing operation, such control systems protect pumps from:
- voltage fluctuations in the power supply;
- operation at critically low liquid levels in tanks or water sources;
- excessive temperature of the working medium in water supply and water treatment systems.
Self-Priming Industrial Surface Pumps
There are two types of self-priming industrial surface pumps:
- Ejector-type — suction of the working medium is ensured by the pump design itself.
- Non-ejector-type — liquid intake occurs due to vacuum created inside the pump chambers.
Such industrial surface pumps are used:
- in agriculture, including irrigation systems;
- for domestic and industrial applications;
- in water treatment and wastewater systems;
- for pumping drinking water;
- for water intake from natural and artificial reservoirs.
Industrial Surface Pumping Stations

Industrial surface pumping stations operating in automatic mode are designed for pumping liquids from tanks and reservoirs, as well as for water intake from wells or open water bodies. Automation responds to system pressure by regulating pump operation (switching it on and off), thereby ensuring stable and constant pressure in the system.
Advantages of Industrial Surface Pumps
Industrial surface pumps offer the following advantages:
- no need to seal electric motors;
- simple and cost-effective maintenance and repair, with the possibility of system upgrades;
- convenient access to all components;
- low weight and compact dimensions;
- high reliability and long service life;
- affordable cost.
