The DC range of self priming engines pumps are of fully portable design suitable for irrigation, dewatering and general pumping duties. All models feature open impellers suitable for pumping lightly silted water and a sturdy carrying and protection frame. Also included are quick couple hose connectors and suction strainers. Maximum suction is 8m at sea level, though this will be reduced at altitudes. For all pumps, the pump body and impellers are manufactured from high grade cast aluminum. ECONO models use different specification components and are recommended for light duties and shorter operating periods.
