Tunnel project U3, Munich

     

  The project:

Construction of underground tunnel line 3 North, lot 1
Execution companies:
Consortium U-Bahn Linie 3 Nord
Ed. Züblin AG, Ndl. Tunnelbau
Ed. Züblin AG, Ndl. München

     
The problem:

Pumping off the water arising during mined underground tunnel heading.

 

     
  Our solution:

Use of 9 submersible waste water pumps of Type KTZ32.2.
Because of the highly calcareous water deposits occur in the pump hydraulics resulting in pump blocking. However, due to the mechanical seal positioned completely inside und the additional shaft protection sleeve with sealing ring the pump can be put quickly with little effort and without exchanging any wear parts back into operation again.

     
In the event of abrasive and corrosive utilization, stronger wear and tear will take place naturally in certain components. With regards to the above application wear and tear can take place mainly in impeller, suction plate, shaft sleeve, oil ring, mechanical seal, pump casing, strainer, motor casing and discharge coupling. Depending on the working conditions the lifetime of those parts might vary significantly and can be shorter than the legal warranty period.
