Questions

1–10 of 16 Questions  
Sort by:

  1. What is thje smallest battery size I can run this pump with?

    Probably max run time would be 30 mins at a time between charges.

    1. use a heavy duty marine battery

      Helpful?

    2. The smallest battery would be a 6 1/2 amp, 12 volt battery. The pump pulls 6 1/2 amps so it would be a good idea to use a 12 volt battery with a capability of running an amperage of slightly more than 6 1/2 amps though.

      Helpful?

  2. Is the strainer included?

    Description says it only includes pump but picture shows hose and strainer. Are they included? If not do you sell a strainer that fits a standard garden hose

    1. One hose and strainer is included.

      Helpful?

    2. This Simer Pump Co. Utility Pump does come with the skimmer and 6' garden hose.

      Helpful?

  3. will it self prime at the max lift of 7ft?

    I'm trying to fill a spray tank in my truck bed from a pond. The height from the truck bed to the water will be about 5ft. I'd like to be able to back up to the pond toss in the strainer end and start filling. Will this pump work for that?

    1. yes

      Helpful?

    2. The pump is self priming at 7 feet only it it has been primed initially.

      Helpful?

  4. Does this pump have an overload reset button

    1 answer

    1. The Simer 12-Volt Self Priming Utility Pump does not have an overload reset button, it will automatically reset once the pump cools down.

      Helpful?

  5. Would like to use this to prime a small portable 500 gpm fire pump using river water. Will this work?

    Is it somewhat splash/rain resistant?
    Will it require a check valve to prevent back flow from the approx. 20" Hg intake pressure?

    1 answer

    1. This pump would not be sufficient for a 500 gpm pump using river water.

      Helpful?

  6. Will the skimmer fit through a 2" bung on a 55 gallon drum?

    1 answer

    1. The skimmer on this utility pump will not fit through a 2" bung on a 55 gallon drum. The skimmer can be detached from the hose.

      Helpful?

  7. How long are the battery cable leads?

    1 answer

    1. The battery cable leads are 5' 5" long.

      Helpful?

  8. Can I use this to pump water from my pond into a stock tank?

    1 answer

    1. This pump can be used to pump water from a pond. You will need to make sure there is no debris in the water as this can damage the pump. A strainer can help filter out any debris.

      Helpful?

  9. How long will this pump run on a fully charged deep cycle battery?

    1 answer

    1. The run time would depend on variable factors such as the rated amp hours of the battery and the condition the battery is in. A fully charged new battery might run longer than a fully charged older battery.

      Helpful?

  10. can you hook up a garden hose with a nozzle on it and use it intermittently like you would if you were washing a car?

    1 answer

    1. This pump is designed to have continuous flow through it and should not be used with a nozzle that enables intermittent use.
