潛(qian)水(shui)泵是一種專用(yong)于(yu)從地(di)(di)(di)下(xia)(xia)深處(chu)提(ti)取(qu)水(shui)源的(de)(de)設(she)備(bei)。使用(yong)過程(cheng)中整個設(she)備(bei)都沉入水(shui)底進行工作，然后把地(di)(di)(di)下(xia)(xia)的(de)(de)水(shui)源向(xiang)地(di)(di)(di)表進行提(ti)取(qu)。潛(qian)水(shui)泵的(de)(de)用(yong)途非常廣泛，用(yong)于(yu)溫泉洗浴，還可適(shi)用(yong)于(yu)從深井中提(ti)取(qu)地(di)(di)(di)下(xia)(xia)水(shui)，也(ye)可用(yong)于(yu)河流(liu)、水(shui)庫、水(shui)渠等提(ti)水(shui)工程(cheng)。主要用(yong)于(yu)農(nong)田灌溉及高山(shan)區人畜(chu)用(yong)水(shui)，亦(yi)可供中央(yang)空(kong)調冷(leng)卻、熱泵機組、冷(leng)泵機組、城市、工廠、鐵路、礦山(shan)、工地(di)(di)(di)排水(shui)使用(yong)。

根(gen)據需(xu)求不(bu)同(tong)，潛(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)水(shui)(shui)(shui)泵(beng)也有(you)(you)(you)很多分類(lei)，有(you)(you)(you)深井潛(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)水(shui)(shui)(shui)泵(beng)、潛(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)污水(shui)(shui)(shui)泵(beng)、潛(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)水(shui)(shui)(shui)軸流泵(beng)、大(da)型潛(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)水(shui)(shui)(shui)電泵(beng)、熱水(shui)(shui)(shui)潛(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)水(shui)(shui)(shui)泵(beng)、不(bu)銹鋼潛(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)水(shui)(shui)(shui)泵(beng)、潛(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)水(shui)(shui)(shui)螺旋(xuan)離心泵(beng)等等。有(you)(you)(you)一些潛(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)水(shui)(shui)(shui)泵(beng)只能抽(chou)送(song)水(shui)(shui)(shui)質清澈的水(shui)(shui)(shui)，不(bu)可(ke)含(han)有(you)(you)(you)雜(za)物，或者雜(za)物顆粒(li)很小(xiao)，如深井潛(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)水(shui)(shui)(shui)泵(beng)、熱水(shui)(shui)(shui)潛(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)水(shui)(shui)(shui)泵(beng)等。有(you)(you)(you)一些潛(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)水(shui)(shui)(shui)泵(beng)就可(ke)以(yi)(yi)抽(chou)送(song)泥水(shui)(shui)(shui)、雨水(shui)(shui)(shui)之(zhi)類(lei)的，如潛(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)污水(shui)(shui)(shui)泵(beng)，但是對(dui)顆粒(li)物大(da)小(xiao)要求比較嚴格，太(tai)大(da)的抽(chou)不(bu)了(le)。潛(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)(qian)水(shui)(shui)(shui)螺旋(xuan)離心泵(beng)因為其(qi)特有(you)(you)(you)的結構特質，可(ke)以(yi)(yi)抽(chou)送(song)的物質就比較大(da)，可(ke)以(yi)(yi)抽(chou)送(song)活魚、土豆(dou)、蘋果(guo)等等。
