Vacuum Pump
-
Enables suction lift (pulling water from below the pump level) because the vacuum pump evacuates air/air-liquid mix and allows the main pump to draw fluid. For example, suction lifts up to 28 ft (or more in some cases) when using the priming system.
-
Fully automatic priming/re-priming: Once set up, the system can prime and re-prime without manual intervention.
-
Handles air/liquid mixtures and some solids: this is useful in dewatering, slurry, dredging or similar messy jobs.
-
Environmentally safe priming: The float box plus diaphragm vacuum pump means no water carry-over and reduced contamination risk.
-
Better hydraulic efficiency thanks to oversize suction design: less friction loss, higher flows.
