Aquatec's 550 Series delivers powerful flow rates of up to 25 litres per hour at pressures up to 80 PSI. The patented 5-chamber diaphragm and piston design allows these pumps to operate at exceptionally quiet noise levels and minimal pulsations. Like the smaller, 3-chamber 5800/7800 Series, these pumps are designed for intermittent duty, although most models can run continuously for hours at a time.

The Aquatec 550 series diaphragm pump - ideally suited for applications such as water vending, agricultural spraying, general industrial and alternative energy systems.Click to enlarge this drawing.

Typical Applications:

  • Water Vending
  • Agricultural Spraying
  • General Industrial
  • Alternative Energy/Solar

These pumps are also commonly used to either pressurize water drawn from an atmospheric tank, to deliver purified water to a specific point of use,

or merely to increase pressure when required.

They can either be controlled by a pressure switch ("demand" mode) or an external power control device ("delivery" mode).

When necessary, they can incorporate an integrated bypass to help limit pressure.

Technical Specifications:

Motor: 12 VDC, permanent magnet, totally enclosed, non-ventilated. Leads are 14 AWG, 12" long. This motor is not equipped with thermal protection. For user safety, optimal performance and maximum motor life, the motor surface should not exceed 150°F (66°C).

Envelope Dimensions: Approximately 100mm x 125mm x 200mm, weighing 3.6 Kg.

Mounting: Standard mounting is a steel base with four hollow rubber grommets. These pumps may be mounted in any position.

Control Options: Internal Bypass (20-100 PSI), Pressure Switch (40-70 PSI).

Fittings: Pumphead options include 3/4"; openings (for use with 3/8", 5/8", 1/2" and 3/4" hose barb, quick connect fittings), and 1/2" NPT female ports.

 

Pump design: 5 chamber diaphragm pump, self priming, capable of being run dry.

Performance measured with flooded inlet (0 PSI), 70°F (21°C) ambient water temperature and voltage controlled at 12 VDC. Positive inlet pressure will increase the discharge pressure by a similar amount for a given flow. Maximum inlet pressure is 60 PSI.
