Specifications
Product Description
The Shurflo Pressure Pump 12V 6.2 l/min 45 PSI 8000-243-155 is a 3-chamber diaphragm pump, lightweight and highly reliable, designed to operate in mobile equipment and professional applications where stable pressure and controlled flow are required. With an adjustable pressure switch and high self-priming capability, it maintains on-demand supply with moderate consumption and excellent chemical resistance thanks to its quality materials.
Main Features
- Operating voltage: 12 VDC with permanent magnet motor and thermal protection.
- Pressure switch: adjustable 40–60 PSI (factory setting 50 PSI; reset 35 ± 5 PSI).
- Flow rate: 6.2 l/min at open discharge; sustained flow under pressure for fine spraying.
- Self-priming: up to 3.7 m (12 ft) vertical; maximum inlet pressure 2.1 bar (30 PSI).
- Internal bypass: 45 PSI to stabilize operation with nozzles/valves.
- Connections: male thread 1/2"-14 NPSM, compatible with Shurflo swivel fittings.
- Materials in contact: body in polypropylene, EPDM valves, and Santoprene diaphragm.
Advantages or Benefits
- Precise pressure on demand: the integrated pressure switch automatically turns the pump on and off, reducing cycles and extending its service life.
- High suction capacity: its self-priming up to 3.7 m facilitates installations with lower tanks or long lines.
- Robust and reliable: positive displacement design and check valve that prevents reverse flow.
- Chemical resistance: EPDM and Santoprene provide durability in intensive spraying or dust control uses.
- Easy installation: standard 1/2" connections, base with silent blocks, and compact format for portable equipment.
- Low maintenance cost: wide availability of filters, fittings, and service kits for the 8000/2088 series.
Purpose or Applications
Perfect for agricultural spraying (treatments, herbicides compatible with EPDM), dust control in sweepers and road machinery, portable cleaning or transfer equipment, food trucks, and off-grid solutions requiring moderate pressure with controlled flow. It can also be used in boats and caravans where pressure precision and reduced consumption are prioritized.
