RIG

Rig-mounted dewatering pump (NC series Godwin Rig Pump, model 80) for underground mining. It is installed on the drilling rig, so there are no trailing power cables and the pump can be switched on and off from the rig cabin; it primes from the drill face using Dri-Prime technology. Non-clog impeller, non-return valve and liquid oil-bath mechanical seal with silicon carbide rotating and stationary faces; the manufacturer states a service life up to five times longer than traditional submersible dewatering pumps.
