Jet 40/90 pumps
The Jet 40 and 90 pumps are self priming up to a suction lift of 7 metres. A discharge
hose elbow fitting and suction hose fitting, complete with hose and footvalve/strainer
suitable for this kind of installation are available as optional extras. Part Nos. as follows:-
Hose assy 7m inclusive footvalve/strainer . . . . . . . . . . 26880
G1 discharge hose elbow assy . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26881
It is important that the optional suction hose assembly is always used on suction lift
installations.
When Jet pumps are used in a suction lift installation, delivery pipework should be a
minimum of 25 mm dia and any fittings connected directly to the pump should be plastic.
SITING OF THE PUMP/PIPEWORK (Submersible Models)
WARNINGS:
Ensure pipework from pump is independently supported to prevent
forces being transferred to outlet branch.
Do not under any circumstances use the cable fitted as a means to
carry or lower the pump into position on installation. Attach a rope
sling to the lifting eye.
Ensure the pump cannot be subjected to freezing conditions as
damage may result.
Never run pump whilst sucking air/liquid as the motor will overheat.
To prevent this from happening always install pump in the vertical
position and ensure fully submerged.
*Dimension ‘A’ (given above) is the
maximum distance the control module
can be re-positioned when the suction
lift distance is the maximum permissible
(see limits of application section).
However dimension ‘A’ can be increased
to correspond with any decrease in the
suction lift eg:

with suction lift and remote mounting of pressure
control module.
