The drainage pump is a self contained unit designed to be completely autonomous. It is a high flow pump that only requires to be taken to the place when needed.
Most shrimp farms are located in low and flat zones, where drainage is inadequate, the fast evacuation of water required during harvesting is interrupted by high tides or saturation of drainage channels during heavy rain.
|
The DRAINAGE PUMP permits the aquacultor to harvest even when the tide is high or the drainage channels are saturated with water. The pump is installed and operated at the slots of the drainage structure; if the pump may not be installed at a structure constructed for this purpose at the drainage channel permitting the harvest to continue normally, and allowing to harvest at some sites with the aid of the Drainage Pump. |
Vertical Pump Option
|
The final quality of the shrimp and the profits depend greatly on speed and the flow of water with which a shrimp pond operates during the harvest and drainage. If the farm ponds don't drain correctly or there isn't the possibility to react on time to emergency situations, the shrimp is needlessly at risk.

Horizontal Pump Option |
The mobile pumping systems developed by ETEC S.A. such as the HIDROTEC for moderate flow rate or the DRAINAGE PUMPS for high flow rate are solutions successfully used around the world at aquiculture farms.

Fiberglass dividing board. It separates the suction zone water from the high level water in the discharge zone. |
Agriculture Applications
Most agricultural crops are highly sensitive to excess of water caused by rains or inefficient drainage systems, which cause great loses of crops due to over hydration. The solution is to have the pumping capacity to rapidly evacuate the water from the crop areas.
The DRAINGAGE PUMP is easily installed on box-culvert structures, previously conceived for water evacuation. Because it is a mobile equipment, completely self contained and autonomous, the pump may be taken to work places only when needed, being installed and retrieved quickly. The different sizes permit to have the adequate equipment for the crop area.
The HIDROTEC PUMP has the capacity to offer solutions for drainage or irrigations at multiple locations without the need of further equipment. The capacity and number of pumps must be determined by the maximum flow needed at a given time. |
