What this model is for

A self-priming surface pump for tank filling, water transfer, drainage and shallow irrigation. Carrying handle and a cast aluminium body light enough for one person to move between plots. The self-priming chamber means it does not need to be filled by hand before every start, which is the difference between a pump that gets used and one that sits in the store.

What you get

  • Self-priming, so it does not need hand filling before each start
  • Carried by one person between plots or tanks
  • Cast aluminium body rather than plastic, for a longer working life
  • Suction hose and strainer can be quoted on the same order
  • Runs off a small generator where mains power is not available

Portable Self-Priming Water Transfer Pump, 550 W — buyer questions

Can this pump be used as a shallow well pump?

Yes, as long as the water level is within about eight metres of the pump and the suction line is airtight and correctly sized. Beyond that you need a submersible, not a surface pump. Undersized or leaking suction hose is the reason most surface pumps are returned as faulty.

Will it run from a small generator?

Yes. At 550 W it is within the range of the small portable generators common in these markets. Tell us the generator rating if you want us to confirm it, because motor starting current is several times the running current and that is what trips a marginal generator.
