Like all Sulzer submersible drainage pumps, the new XJ 900 offers an economical and reliable option for dewatering applications. Whether working in mining, tunneling or construction, the Sulzer pumps are a valuable asset against water-related downtime.

The new pump is equipped with a high-efficiency electric motor rated 90 kW for 50 Hz markets and 108 kW (145 hp) for 60 Hz markets. The high-efficiency IE3 motor and new hydraulics combined with low-friction bearings reduce power losses. As a result, the total energy costs are low, and the carbon footprint is reduced. The unique hydraulic design allows for easy conversion between high-head and high-flow configurations. This makes it possible to stock fewer pumps and still have the right hydraulic performance for the job.

Predicting Vertical Motor Resonance: A More Accurate Method to Protect Equipment

27.11.2025 -

Vibration in rotating machinery is a leading cause of premature failure, costly downtime, and safety hazards. For operators of vertical motors, one of the most important vibration-related concepts to understand is reed critical frequency (RCF). This natural frequency of a motor system plays a central role in determining whether a motor will operate smoothly or succumb to damaging resonance conditions.
