Product Specifications
FEATURES:
  • The TQ is a complete, all-in-one unit, consisting of pump, motor, pressure tank, and electronic controller. The built-in electronic controller provides constant pressure which ensures that the pump starts automatically when water is consumed and operates continuously until water is not required.
  • Compact design and quiet operation make the TQ series suitable for many applications.
  • The TQ is constructed from top quality corrosion resistant materials.
  • The TQ has an automatic reset function.
  • The motor has a built-in thermal overload to protect against high operating temperatures and over current. (Single phase motor only)
  • The TQ has an anti-cycling feature which prevents the pump from continuous starting and stopping when you have a dripping tap or minor leak in the system.
  • The TQ has a self-priming function which is able to pump water from depths of 25 feet or less. However, on installations with suction lifts over 3 feet, a good quality foot valve should be fitted.

frequently asked questions about Booster Pumps

questions about TQ Booster Pumps and how they are activated"How are the TQ pumps activated?"
answers about TQ Booster Pumps and how they are activated The TQ pumps have a built-in pressure switch and internal flow switch. Either one of these will activate the pump depending on water consumption. The pump will start when the pressure is BELOW the pressure switch activation point, or the flow rate is greater than 0.7 GPM. The preset pressure switch activation point for each model is provided in the pump specifications chart listed under "start pressure setting (PSI)." The cut in pressure must be lower than the preset activation point; otherwise the pump will not start.

information about TQ Booster pumps self-priming function"One of the features says the TQ has a self-priming function. Does this mean I never need to worry about priming this pump?"
education and frequently asked questions about TQ Booster self-priming functionxxWhen first installed the pump must be primed before operation. The TQ pumps have a built-in check valve, that will allow the pump to then pump water from depths of 25 feet or less without the worry of priming the pump each time. However, the pump must always be checked for prime if not used for a prolonged period of time. It is imperative to fill the pump with water before operation as dry running causes irreparable damage to the mechanical seal.
