8-Inch Encapsulated High-Temp Motor
Franklin’s 8-Inch Encapsulated High-Temp submersible motor is a maintenance‑free solution engineered for demanding high‑temperature wells and low‑flow conditions where standard 8-inch motors fall short.
-
Designed for high-temperature 8-inch diameter or larger water wells with ambient water temperatures up to 167 °F (75 °C), when minimum cooling flow is maintained.
-
Provides a 25% increase in upthrust capability and a 25% increase in downthrust capability at 30 °C compared to standard motors without oil.
-
Approved for wet well, reservoir, and low‑flow installations in 14-inch diameter or larger wells with ambient water up to 87 °F (30 °C).
-
Premium encapsulation process, hermetically sealed stator, and innovative high‑temperature winding encapsulation system enhance electrical reliability in extreme heat.
-
Utilizes Franklin Electric’s water‑soluble, high‑temperature bearing lubrication with water‑lubricated radial and thrust bearings for truly maintenance‑free operation.
-
Double‑flange NEMA mounting simplifies handling, alignment, and pump mounting for contractors.
-
Stainless steel splined shaft maximizes shaft‑to‑coupling contact for efficient power transfer to submersible turbines.
-
Full 3525 RPM, 60 Hz design point delivers superior pump performance in deep‑set and high‑pressure high‑temp applications.
-
Equipped with Franklin’s SAND FIGHTER sealing system and exclusive Water‑Bloc lead connection for added protection against sand and moisture ingress.
-
Available in 316 stainless steel, Y‑Delta, and non‑vertical configurations to match a wide range of municipal, agricultural, and industrial high‑temperature well requirements.
