Great little Pump
"Great little unit, fits perfectly with my Digiboil 30L. Smooth operation, almost silent running. Just needs to be able to slow down."
KL03841
This magnetic drive pump is the ideal pump for your brewing system needs. Capable of withstanding temperatures up to 120C it can handle the boil directly without the need to cool before use. Extremely efficient 1.1amp pump which can be run continuously at elevated temperatures.
A 1/2" ball valve is recommended on the outlet side to reduce the flow if you're using this for brewing purposes and don't want it to go full ball. Putting pressure from restrictive flow will not hurt a magnetically driven pump, it is precisely what this baby is used for.
It is not self priming, so it will need to be lower than the vessel primed with liquid before it can push it around. It is not submersible!

"I use two of these for my three vessel system. They are well priced. Unfortunately the one I was replacing failed half way through brew day without warning. I guess I'll have to have a spare one on hand to avoid that occurring again in the future. I did get 2-3 years out of it before it failed"
"The range of products is great, good to see lots of compatible fittings, adaptors and hoses so that I didn't have to order from Amazon or from 5 different homebrew shops. Great prices, thanks"
"Purchased 2 of these pumps, both have failed within a week or so, warranty is a hassle, Apparently pumps must be installed in a correct position to have warranty, yet no instructions say this. Was happy to work through the warranty process but seems like just going around in circles, send a pump back, get sent another “tested”, faulty one Dont bother Dont waste your money."
"Good little bit of kit for the price. Does well recirculating mash. Quality service here as well."
"This is the fourth pump of this type I've bought and they work great, but I've had issues with 2 of them thats made them unusable,at the point where the power cable enters the main body over time the sheathing to the cable Frey's leaving a potentially dangerous hazard rendering the pump unusable. needs a fix. lo"
"Use as a seawater pump for aircon cooling on a yacht. Perfect with the ss pump housing. This pump is a spare, just incase"
"I've used this once, and it did everything expected of it. Initially, it was to direct wort chilled via a Red Reaper back into the kettle, then, when the temperature was right for pitching, directly into my fermenting vessel."
"Works great"
"Great Service and delivered on time, brilliant :)"
