Mining Applications - Monthly Job, November 2002

Job Description:

Six Dri-Prime pumps are withstanding the test of time - and gritty water - from a Framingham, Massachusetts tunneling project. Godwin 4-, 6- and 8-inch permanently installed Dri-Prime pumps collect water accumulated from infiltration and tunnel drilling, transfer it to a settling basin, then move it to a treatment plant. Four years and four billion gallons of gritty water later, the Dri-Prime pumps have survived the daily onslaught of gritty mining waste with only one impeller and one front seal change each.
