Seaflo 12V 4.3 LPM Water System Pump

This is a little workhorse of a pump, simple to set up, a little on the noisy side but that also reminds you that the thing is running, pumps well and no worry if the liquid your moving runs out because it will work dry.

Nice powerful little pump. Easy to set up and pulls water from rear of van easily to tap inside

Do not tighten mounting screws too tight as this will result in vibration/noise

Noisy for a small pump but aren’t they all?Easy to fit, plenty of wire to help connection, sturdy hose fittings. Been running the sink on the boat for a few months and no issues

Half the size of a normal pump .Doesnt fit a normal size pipe (?)Dont be fooled by the price.

Barbs are difficult to seal and had to use ptfe tape, even with silicon water hose. Very noisy in operation. Pressure is good enough for my campervan. It is easy power connection, but I would advise the use of an isolation switch between pump and tap.In hindsight, I would buy something else as this is very loud, but it does do the job, and it was cheap.

I bought the Seaflo 12V 4.3 LPM pump specifically to make water changes on my three aquariums a lot easier and it has completely transformed the job. What was a good 1 hour task is now completed in around 20 mins.𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁: 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝗹𝗲𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗹𝗲𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝟭𝟬𝗺𝗺.

This pump has 100% simplified the whole process and enormously.It is very compact, very well made 'well constructed' and surprisingly powerful for its size. The 4.3 LPM flow rate is ideal for aquarium work because it moves water quickly without being ridiculously fast and difficult to control. The built in pressure switch is another excellent feature because the pump automatically responds to outlet resistance.I have paired it with a Taormey 12V 6A 72W power supply, which is exactly the sort of supply this pump needs. The Seaflo is a 12V DC pump with a maximum current draw of 4A, so the 12V 6A supply provides the correct voltage with plenty of current capacity 'in reserve' rather than running the power supply at its limit.The result is a very simple and reliable setup. Connect the inlet feed and the outlet hose, switch it on and let the pump do the work. No more trailing hosepipes, carrying or lifting up buckets and 25 litre containers of water and no more spills.A gate valve is a must on the outlet side to control the flow so it does not disturb your tank set up.The fact that the pump is 12V also makes it particularly convenient for my setup. The power supply stays safely away from the water while the pump does the actual work where I need it.For anyone doing regular aquarium water changes; I genuinely wish I had bought one years ago. It has taken what was previously a tedious, physical job and turned it into a very simple process.Excellent little pump, excellent setup and absolutely perfect for my intended use. 5 stars without hesitation.This is the power supply I bought off Amazon to power it: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0FS1FDM77?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1This is the gate valve I use to control the outlet flow: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00VIGJ1RI?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_titleThis is the filter I used: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0891PBJTH?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title

Great water pump, I use it for a home-made irrigation system I built during the summer. Gets the job done! Easy enough to adjust the pressure.

L ho montata sul camper e va bene , avrò ancora qualche leggerissima perdita di farti ancora stacca e attacca un po' , ma poi per fortuna si ferma

Good steady pressure and easy to install

De fábula, por ahora va de lujo, no he probado a regularla pero tiene mucha fuerza, yo la he pedido para una camper, y va de lujo. La Boquilla es ideal para manguera de 10mm.Es perfecta porque funciona cuando detecta un cambio de presión y tú la dejas conectada a la red y solo se enciende cuando abres el grifo

Works great, saves water when used in a camper due to the relatively low flowrate. Flowrate is enough for a comfortable shower.

Ich habe 2 dieser Pumpen bei Wassereinbruch im Keller (nur Grundwasser, kein Schlamm) im Einsatz. Zusammen mit einem Wasserpegelschalter funktionieren diese Dinger über etliche Tage hinweg genauso wie sie sollten, auch wenn dies vielleicht die eigentlich vorgesehene Einsatzweise ist.
