INSTALLATION & OPERATION
LAWN SPRINKLING APPLICATION
This pump is designed for a pond, cistern or well points. Pump
discharge can be divided to supply two (2) or more sprinkler
systems. A suggested multiple dis charge to service is shown in
Figure 3.
FIGURE 3 – MULTIPLE DISCHARGE
PUMP/PIPING INSTALLATION
Use only PTFE pipe thread sealant tape for making all threaded
connections to the pump itself. Do not use pipe joint compounds
on plastic pumps: they can react with the plastic in the pump
components.
Make sure that all pipe joints in the suction pipe are air tight as
well as water tight. If the suction pipe can suck air, the pump will
not be able to pull water from the well.
1.
Bolt pump to solid, level foundation.
2.
Support all piping connected to the pump.
Install pump as close to well head as poss ible. Long
piping runs and many fittings create friction and
reduce flow.
3.
Wrap 1-1/2 to 2 layers of PTFE pipe thread sealant tape
clockwise (as you face end of pipe) on all male threads being
attached to pump.

Tighten joints hand tight plus 1-1/2 turns. Do not over
tighten.

If long, horizontal pipe runs have to be used, install a
priming tee between the check valve and the well head
(Figure 1). Use schedule 80 or iron pipe.
