FAQ

What types of liquids can this pump handle?

This pump is designed for water and similar fluids, capable of handling semi-solids up to 1/8 inch, but it is not suitable for highly abrasive or corrosive substances without additional compatibility checks.

Is the pump self-priming?

No, this centrifugal pump requires a flooded suction setup to operate effectively, meaning the suction line must be filled with liquid to prevent air ingress and ensure proper function.

What is the maximum temperature for operation?

The pump can handle fluids up to 180°F, making it appropriate for many industrial processes but not for extreme high-temperature applications beyond this limit.

How do I install the discharge port?

The discharge port rotates in 90-degree increments, allowing you to adjust it easily during installation to fit your specific piping configuration without tools.

What maintenance does the pump need?

Regular inspection of the buna-n seal and impeller is recommended to ensure optimal performance, with cleaning as needed due to the self-cleaning design that minimizes debris buildup.
