Shurflo # 8000-542-296 Diaphragm Pump with Bypass - 12 VDC

SHURflo 8000 Series diaphragm pumps are Self-priming, feature Chemical-resistant materials and are designed for heavy-duty spraying and fluid transfer applications. Pump can run dry without damage and has a built-in check valve. The 8000 Series diaphragm pump is SHURflos most widely used agriculture pump. The unique conical valve design delivers high flow rates at maximum discharge pressures, making the 8000 Series the pump of choice for sprayers used on the farm or around the yard. These pumps deliver maximum performance in a wide range of applications.

BYPASS : A bypass pump may be used in application that would normally induce frequent start/stop of the motor, and thereby create a potential for overheating. Models equipped with an internal bypass are designed to pump at high pressure while at low flow rates. Bypass models equipped with a switch may operate for several seconds even though the discharge side has been closed off. Models equipped with a bypass only will continue to run until power is turned OFF.
