The Brave 3-inch diaphragm pump is a top - choice for transferring mud, slurry, and other thick, abrasive liquids. Instead of relying on centrifugal force, it uses a diaphragm that moves up and down to create a vacuum effect. This makes it perfect for draining swamps and dirty ponds, a great asset for farmers. Hose kits are available.

Using the Brave 3 - inch diaphragm pump is quite straightforward. First, make sure the pump is on a stable surface and the 90° rotatable base is adjusted to the right position. Connect the hoses to the 3 - inch NPT suction and discharge ports. The pump is self - priming up to 25 feet, so it'll start working with minimal effort. It can handle solids up to 1 - 5/8 inches in diameter, but avoid large debris that might clog it.
When it comes to maintenance, thanks to the modular component design, you can easily clean and replace parts. After each use, flush the pump with clean water to prevent any build - up of thick liquids. The sand - cast aluminum construction is durable, but avoid exposing it to extreme conditions. The thermoplastic Santoprene diaphragm should be checked regularly for any signs of wear and tear.
Keep in mind that the pump has a maximum temperature limit of 180°F. Don't use it in environments that exceed this temperature. Also, the wheel kit makes it easy to move around, but make sure it's locked in place when in operation.
