SRX LP PUMP HEAD Isolated High-Temperature Magnet Hydlar Friction Bushing Posiseal Air valve Control Rod
SRX LP Air Valve Posi-Seal air valve provides a bubble-tight seal preventing leakage that can lead to unnecessary precipitation. The air/exhaust valves can be totally accessed without taking the pump apart no special tools are required. Filter screen in the air valve assembly prohibits the entry of debris. 330 mesh, stainless steel.
SRX LP Air Exhaust Valve Accessed from the top of the pump without disassembling the pump body. Simply unthread.
SRX LP Fluid Discharge Check Unthread the hose barb Remove the retaining pin for complete access to the ball/seat assembly
SRX LP CONTROL ROD Control Rod Lightweight control rod assists valve operation and is isolated from stress
SRX LP Pump Float Custom design Cast Ebnoite float rated for temperatures up to 250 degrees Hard non porous surface to reduce precipitation build up. ------------------------------------------ Control rod cavity is open for easy cleaning

What Is Corrosion Corrosion is a state of deterioration of essential properties in a material, typically metals due to chemical reactions, oxidation or the loss of electrons. Generally begins at weld joints on the metal
Managing Corrosion Zinc Anode
THE WEIGHT OF THE ATMOSPHERE OR GAS INSIDE THE PUMP IS THE SAME AS OUTSIDE. OUT IN DISCHARGE ACTIVATION LIQUID LEVEL When the exhaust port and the well are open to atmosphere or when the exhaust line is inside the well the liquid level inside the pump to start the discharge cycle is as shown. The gas pressure inside the pump and outside the pump are the same. Only the higher liquid level outside the pump will cause it to fill to the cycle activation level
The well flange seals the top of the well and all the tubing penetrations the pump exhaust tubing is open to the atmosphere PARCEL VACUUM = Z INCHES WATER THE WEIGHT OF THE ATMOSPHERE OR GAS INSIDE THE PUMP IS GREATER THAT OUT SIDE THE PUMP. NEW ACTIVATION LIQUID LEVEL THE NEW ACTIVATION IS Z IN INCHES OF WATER + THE ORIGONIAL SET POINT. 0UT SIDE IN SIDE ORIGONIAL LIQUID ACTIVATION LEVEL When the exhaust port is open to the atmosphere and the well is under partial vacuum the liquid level in the casing to fill the pump and activate the discharge cycle will be increased by the applied vacuum.

Common Questions Q - How deep can I install the pump A - Pumps are rated for 100 PSI so that translates to 231 ft Q After I have had the air supply turned off to the pump it seems to take a while before it starts cycling properly A With the air supply turned off the float moves to the on position allowing the liquid to fill the air line therefore air has to purge the liquid from the air supply
Common Questions Q Why is liquid discharging from the air exhaust line A This is normal after the air supply has been shut off. The liquid will fill the exhaust line equal to the static well level. The discharge should stop after 10-15 cycles
What Customers Say The SRX pump is so simple, it works and the pricing is hundreds less than what we are currently paying.
What Customers Say We know that maintenance will be required on our landfill pumps and the SRX pump makes that process so much simpler. We estimate that our service time will be cut in half and no expensive replacement parts.
What Customers Say The SRX pump is so easy to take apart no special wrenches no adjustments the domed bottom is great for installation.
