PUMP NIRA 1 6B 1101 PB

Primarily a stainless steel hand pump with nitrile seals, suitable for pumping oil, glycol, and domestic water. Ideal for use at a summer cottage as a sauna water pump or for oil tanks. This pump has an upward-facing handle, which cannot be rotated after purchase.

The pump is packed in plastic.

This pump is not recommended for drinking water, as it does not self-drain after use, leaving water inside the pump. Therefore, if the Nira 6B pump is used for pumping domestic water and is stored in a location where freezing is possible, it must be emptied of water before freezing conditions occur.

Features

• Maximum output of approximately 40 liters per minute
• Suction height of 4 m, 8 m with foot valve
• Internal thread on outlets: 3/4” or 1”, specify when ordering
• Pressure resistance temporarily up to approximately 3 bar
• Weight: 3.3 kg

Installation

When installing the pump, note that the length of the suction pipe affects the pump’s maximum suction height. With a foot valve, the suction height is 8 meters; without a foot valve, it is 4 meters. A standard P 1” (32 mm) pipe is typically used as the suction pipe, with the foot valve installed at its end. Garden hose is unsuitable as a suction pipe because it is too soft and the pump’s suction will collapse it.

The Nira 6B can withstand temporary pressure of approximately 3 bar. The pump must not be installed in a system where it is continuously under pressure. When connecting the pump to a fuel tank, ensure the tank cannot empty itself (siphoning effect).
