Specifications
Product Description
The Shurflo Pressure Pump 12V 6 l/min 100 PSI 8000-543-238 is a 3-chamber diaphragm pump designed to operate at high pressure with a controlled and stable flow rate. It features an adjustable pressure switch that automates start and stop according to demand, high self-priming capability to facilitate installation with a lower tank, and high-quality wetted materials (polypropylene, Santoprene, and Viton) that ensure durability and chemical resistance. It is a professional solution for agricultural spraying, backpacks, and mobile equipment where precision in the spray pattern and long-term reliability are required.
Main Features
- Operating voltage: 12 VDC with permanent magnet motor and thermal protection.
- Pressure switch: adjustable 80–100 PSI (factory setting 100 PSI; activation approx. 85 ± 5 PSI).
- Flow rate: 6.0 l/min at open discharge and ≈ 3.6 l/min at 100 PSI for high-precision nozzles.
- Self-priming: up to 3.0 m (10 ft) vertical; maximum inlet pressure 2.1 bar (30 PSI).
- Hydraulic connections: 3/8"-18 NPT female, compatible with Shurflo fittings and hose adapters.
- Wetted materials: body PP, diaphragm Santoprene, and valves Viton for greater chemical resistance.
Advantages or Benefits
- High, stable pressure that improves mist uniformity and treatment effectiveness.
- Water/product on demand: the pressure switch reduces cycling and extends equipment lifespan.
- Easy installation in backpacks, carts, or vehicles: compact format and standard NPT ports.
- Professional reliability with integrated check valve and motor thermal protection.
- Cost-effective maintenance thanks to the wide availability of Shurflo filters, fittings, and service kits.
Purpose or Applications
Recommended for agricultural spraying (precision nozzles, herbicides compatible with Viton), dust control, technical cleaning equipment, and mobile or off-grid systems that require high pressure with moderate flow. Also useful in backpacks and spot sprayers where stability and repeatability of the pattern are required.
