Discover Out Learning Facts & Functioning Of Franklin Electric Well Pumps

 Franklin Electric well pump is a simple machine that uses a motor to create pressure in the water. This pressure can push the water through pipes and into your house. The pump is connected to a control box, which houses a switch that turns the pump on and off. The box also contains an ammeter that measures the amount of current the motor draws and an overload protector that shuts down the motor if it draws too much power. 

There are two types of well pumps: 


  • Centrifugal Pump: A centrifugal pump uses an impeller to move water through the pipe. 
  • Jet Pump: A jet pump moves water through a pipe using pressure created by compressed air. 


The water then flows into a storage tank, held until you need it. A pressure switch turns the pump on when the water level in the tank gets below a certain point and turns off again when there is enough water to meet your needs. The pump has several features, including a self-priming suction tube and a large 4” discharge opening.




In some cases, the motor is directly connected to a pump, while in other instances, it is connected to a belt that drives the pump. Rotary pumps spin a disc inside a casing containing water and dirt. The disc centrifugally pushes the water out of the casing at high pressure. The Franklin Electric well pump is a high-efficiency water pump that can be used for residential and commercial purposes.
