1     The IEC 60034-30 standard is not binding for submersible motor pumps. Efficiencies are calculated / determined by analogy
      with the measurement method specified in IEC 60034-2. The marking is used for submersible motors that achieve efficiency
      levels similar to those of standardized motors acc. to the IEC 60034-30 standard.

overflow head hü
Calculation formulas:
H = Hgeo + ∆ Hv
∆ Hv                                 ▪ Overflow head hü (see diagram)
                                     ▪ Loss in the riser (pipe friction)
                                     ▪ Outlet loss v2 / 2g (v refers to DA)
Overflow head hü depends on Q and the discharge design ∅ DA. The characteristic curve values only apply to unimpeded outlet in
all directions; otherwise they are approximate values only.

Design of the intake chamber wall surfaces (to prevent vortex formation)
The flow-straightening vane is indispensable for the inlet conditions of the pump set. It prevents the development of a submerged
vortex (floor vortex) which could cause a drop in performance, for example. In addition, the floor and wall surfaces of the intake
chamber should be designed as a rough concrete surface. Rough surfaces minimize the separation of boundary layers that may
cause wall and floor vortices.

∆ Hv                           ▪ Overflow head hü (see diagram)
                               ▪ Loss in the riser (pipe friction)
                               ▪ Outlet loss v2 / 2 g (v refers to DA)

Overflow head hü depends on Q and the discharge design ∅ DA. The characteristic curve values only apply to unimpeded outlet in
all directions; otherwise they are approximate values only.

Calculation formulas:
H = Hgeo + ∆ Hv
∆ Hv                                           ▪ Loss in the elbow hV Kr (see diagram)
                                               ▪ Loss in the riser (pipe friction)
                                               ▪ HV System (valves, etc. )
HV System must be determined for the specific system.

Design of the intake chamber wall surfaces (to prevent vortex formation)
The flow-straightening vane is indispensable for the inlet conditions of the pump set. It prevents the development of a submerged
vortex (floor vortex) which could cause a drop in performance, for example. In addition, the floor and wall surfaces of the intake
chamber should be designed as a rough concrete surface. Rough surfaces minimize the separation of boundary layers that may
cause wall and floor vortices.
