Page 15: Operation
OPERATION operation operation What is “Head” Head refers to the height of a column of water that can be delivered by the discharge of the pump. Suction Head is the vertical distance between the center of the pump and the surface of the liquid on the suction side of the pump. May also be referred to as “suction lift”. The atmospheric pressure of 14.7 psi at sea level limits suction head lift to less than approximately 26 feet for any pump. Discharge Head is the vertical distance between the pump’s discharge port and the point of discharge, which is the liquid surface if the hose is submerged or pumping into the bottom of a tank. Total Head is the sum of the suction head value plus the discharge head value. As water pumping height increases, pump output decreases. The length, type, and size of the suction and discharge hoses can also significantly affect pump output. It is important for the suction operation to be the shorter part of the total pumping action. This will decrease the priming time and improve pump performance by increasing the discharge head. Suction head is a maximum of 25 feet and discharge head should be a maximum of 81 feet. Total head can not be more than 106 feet as shown on next page. Move Water Pump to Safe Operating Location For best pump performance, locate the pump on a flat, level surface as close as possible to the water to be pumped. Secure water pump to avoid tipover. Use hoses that are no longer than necessary. IMPORTANT: Direct open end of discharge hose away from home, electrical devices or anything not desired to get wet. WARNING Fuel and its vapors are extremely flammable and... -
