PULACO 160GPH Submersible Pump: The Optimal Choice for Small Water Pumping Needs

1. Operating Temperature Range: The pump operates effectively in temperatures from 40℉ to 95℉.
2. Power Specifications: Our package includes a US Standard Plug, compatible only with electrical outlets in the US, Canada, and Mexico.
3. Maintenance Note: Before using the water pump, ensure it is cleaned thoroughly with fresh water if it has been blocked by substances such as mud, debris, or sea salt.

This durable 16W motor boasts high efficiency, continually lifting water with a voltage requirement of 110V-120V/60Hz. The pump's maximum flow rate reaches 160 gallons per hour (600 L/H), with a lift height of up to 4.1 feet (1.3 meters). It comes equipped with a long power cord measuring 6.0 feet (1.8 meters) and includes nozzles in sizes of 0.3 inches and 0.5 inches, along with 1 piece of 3.3 feet tubing (1/3 inch).

Important Usage Guidelines:

1. Submersible Functionality: As this pump is designed to be submersible, ensure it is completely submerged in water before powering it on to prevent burnout. Avoid running it without water, as this can significantly shorten its lifespan and create excessive noise.

2. Initial Water Residue: It is common for new pumps to contain a small amount of water; this is normal and results from the manufacturer's water testing conducted prior to shipment. Rest assured, this indicates the pump is both new and operational.

3. Regular Maintenance: If the pump experiences blockage from debris, mud, or sea salt, clean it thoroughly with fresh water before use. The internal shaft contains a small amount of lubricant designed to facilitate motor function; if you are keeping sensitive fish or aquatic plants, consider testing the pump in a separate tank briefly before placing it into your main aquarium. Should the pump stop working or produce noise, this could signal a blockage, so regular cleaning is recommended or adding a bit of olive oil may help maintain its performance.

4. Flow Rate Considerations: The pump’s flow rate is affected by power and frequency. The specified 160GPH flow rate is calculated without any attached pipes. Attaching a pump water pipe may result in a maximum flow rate below 160GPH.

Key Specifications:
