The Roto Pump is a rotary-vane,
brass body pump capable of 3 gpm
- coupled with a 12 or 24V DC motor.
It is capable of 20 ft. of suction

This pump is not tolerant of abrasive material in the water and does require intake filtration. It can be operated in a well of at least 6 inches in diameter or larger, suspended above the water,and is often used with a sand-point source of water.
The Roto Pump can be controlled by a float switch, or optionally, by using a pressure tank with switch to supply a pressurized pipeline, with it’s potential for multiple outlets. The Roto Pump is a positive displacement unit and requires freeze protection.
