Banjo pumps offer a wide range of styles with multiple features, making them suitable for every need and job. These pumps are constructed from cast iron or polypropylene, ensuring durability. They are self-priming, which saves time and effort. The stainless steel shaft sleeve protects the engine shaft, extending the pump's lifespan. High-performance impellers guarantee efficient operation. Product specifications include a 3-Inch NPT discharge and suction port diameter, a dry weight of 60 Lbs, a 4-vane polypropylene impeller, and an EPDM mechanical seal. The pump comes as a standalone kit with the SKU M300PO.BAN.
Using your Banjo transfer pump is easy. First, make sure the pump is placed on a stable surface. Connect the suction and discharge hoses to the appropriate ports. Since the pump is self-priming, you don't need to manually prime it. Just turn it on and it will start working. When using the pump, avoid running it dry as this can damage the mechanical seal. Regularly check the shaft sleeve for any signs of wear and tear. If you notice any issues, replace it immediately to protect the engine shaft. Clean the impeller periodically to maintain its high performance. After each use, drain the pump to prevent corrosion. If you're not going to use the pump for a long time, store it in a dry place.
