Description
MPX Pumps, SPXT-6, Self-Priming Trash Pump 6" Discharge - Gorman Rupp Direct Replacement!
Self priming pumps are designed for economical and trouble-free operation in handling solids-laden liquids and slurries. They feature a large volute design which allows them to re-prime automatically in a completely open system without the need of suction or discharge check valves. And this is workable with the pump only partially filled with liquid and completely dry suction line. Self priming pumps are able to handle up to 3" (75mm) spherical solids, depending on pump models. In case the SPXT series pump shaft or bearings need service or repair, the entire rotating assembly can be removed without disturbing pump casing or pipelines. Rotating assembly is sealed with an O-Ring, allowing for external adjustments of clearance.
Self priming centrifugal pumps effectively eliminate the requirement of valves, vacuum and ejector pumps which can get clogged or be impractical to use for prolonged operation.

Common Applications
Self-priming trash pumps are specifically designed to process liquids with debris. They are commonly used by wastewater plants to process sewage. They can also remove water from a flooded area or sedimentary and waste materials.
