Note: If the pump’s flow rate of 17 L/min is higher than your tap/valve, it may cause too much pressure in your set-up, which can potentially lead to pressure switch failure. To ensure a smooth-running setup, it is highly recommended to install a T-piece immediately after the pump, with a gate valve/ tap returning water back into the tank. This will help balance and relieve excess pressure and flow. For Pressurized Setups: For applications involving a pressurised setup and frequent on-off water flow, we recommend using the PWP-17P diaphragm pressure pump. This configuration provides higher cycling capability and extends the lifespan of both the pump and the inbuilt pressure switch. Key Features and Benefits • High Flow Performance: Our water pump is designed for high flow applications, providing an impressive flow rate of up to 17 litres per minute. • Filter (Strainer) unit: Install the filter unit in the inlet port of the pump to prevent debris from entering and causing blockages and damage to the pump. If the pump is used for clean water applications, the use of the strainer may not be necessary. However, for applications such as bait tank pumps on boats, it is recommended to use the strainer. • Quick Connect/Disconnect Ports for Fitting Attachment: The pump is equipped with a quick-connect sliding snap lock mechanism for fitting attachments. • Fittings Options: Four quick connect/disconnect fittings for inlet and outlet parts are included with the pump (1) 13mm (1/2”) Hose Barb Straight (2) 13mm (1/2”) Hose Barb 90° Elbow (3) 20mm (3/4”) Threaded Straight (4) 20mm (3/4”) Threaded 90° Elbow • Thermal Overload Protection: Safety is a priority. The pump comes equipped with thermal overload protection, avoiding the risk of overheating. • Self-Priming: This pump can self-prime up to about 2 meters with suction lift, making it ideal for situations where water sources may be below the pump level. Say goodbye to priming challenges. • Suitable for Potable Water: Our water pump is safe for potable (drinking) water applications, ensuring the water you pump is clean and suitable for consumption. • Suitable for Salt Water and Agricultural Water: Pump head material and diaphragm valves are compatible with saltwater. Additionally, they can withstand common pesticides and fertilizers found in agricultural water.” • Quiet Operation: Experience peace and quiet as the pump efficiently performs its tasks, running silently and minimizing noise disturbances. • Pressure Cut-Off Switch: Thanks to the pressure cut-off switch, the pump operates automatically when you open the tap/valve or nozzle, and it turns off when not in use. This feature adds convenience and saves energy. • Versatile and Durable: Fleximake High Flow Heavy Duty Water Pump is built to last, designed to withstand the demands of diverse applications, with its versatility knowing no bounds. • Mounting Orientation: The pump can be securely mounted in any orientation, allowing you to overcome any space restriction you may have. • Dry Run Safety Feature: The pump is designed with a dry run safety feature, allowing it to operate without liquid for extended periods without incurring any damage.
