Exceptional Volumetric Efficiency

Delivers superior flow rates while maintaining consistent pressure, significantly reducing transfer times compared to standard pumps.

Robust Dry-Run Capability

Designed with durable diaphragms and valves that allow the pump to run dry for extended periods without damage, preventing burnout during priming or empty tank conditions.

Self-Priming with High Suction Lift

Capable of self-priming from deep sources (up to 9 meters/30 feet) and handling entrained air or vapors, making them suitable for flooded suction or lift applications.

Low Noise & Long Life

Low vibration, noise down to ~50 dB; durable diaphragm materials and BLDC options up to ~15,000 hours.
