A self-priming JET pump is a type of pump that is designed to automatically prime itself and create suction without the need for external priming. It is commonly used for various applications such as water supply, irrigation, and boosting water pressure in residential or commercial settings.
The main advantage of a self-priming JET pump is its ability to quickly and easily start pumping without the need for manual priming or filling the pump with water beforehand. This makes it convenient and efficient for situations where the water source may be located above the pump or where there may be air or gas present in the system.
These pumps typically have a jet assembly that utilizes a venturi effect to create suction and draw water into the pump. The jet assembly consists of a nozzle and a venturi tube, which work together to create a pressure differential that allows the pump to self-prime.
Self-priming JET pumps are available in different sizes and power capacities to suit various pumping requirements. They are often made of durable materials such as stainless steel or cast iron to ensure longevity and resistance to corrosion.
These pumps are easy to install and operate, and they are commonly used for applications where a reliable and efficient self-priming pump is required.
