Key Features
-
Automatic Demand Switch: This pump features a built-in pressure switch factory-set to 100 PSI. When the discharge line is closed (e.g., closing a spray wand), the pump automatically shuts off. It restarts instantly when the pressure drops.
-
Self-Priming: The 8000 series can prime itself up to a vertical lift of 8 feet (2.4 meters), allowing for flexible mounting options above the liquid source.
-
Chemical Compatibility: Equipped with Santoprene diaphragms and EPDM valves, this pump is highly resistant to water-based chemicals, many fertilizers, and some mild cleaning agents.
-
Internal Bypass: Some variations of this model include an internal bypass to help prevent rapid “cycling” (turning on and off quickly), which protects the motor and extends the life of the pressure switch.
