Tsurumi PL - NEW Horizontal Pump Series - 3PL,5PL, 9PL

Aquascape has been working with Tsurumi’s engineers since spring of 2006 to design a new horizontal Tsurumi pump series that would fit exactly into any installation using the current Aquascape Pro (SFA series) pumps.

Tsurumi’s engineers have designed our new pump line to be hydraulically “dialed” into the typical lower head
water garden applications. This helps ensure that the pump is performing in its ideal operating range resulting
in less vibration and wear and tear on the pump, ultimately resulting in longer pump life.

PL Series Features:

• Reliability! Built on Tsurumi’s time-tested, field proven PN series sealed motor platform.

• Hydraulically engineered for the lower total dynamic head ranges typically found on water feature applications, helping increase the lifespan of the pump by reducing vibration and premature component wear.

• Ease of Installation. Horizontal design provides perfect fit in our filters.

• Same discharge height as the AquascapePRO pump series allows pumps to be interchanged without plumbing modification.

• Low horizontal profile helps ensure the motor is fully submerged for proper cooling.

• Large 1.5” intake handles bigger solids and reduces maintenances over the current Tsurumi PN and AquascapePRO pumps.

Electrical Efficiency
These energy efficient pumps are designed for continuous duty applications and will provide years of trouble-free operation.

• Same discharge height as the AquascapePRO series allows pumps to be interchanged without plumbing modification

In '09 we will be selling maintenance kits for the Tsurumi pumps so you can change/add oil to the pump (not needed in the first few years). It will have simple instructions. The pump should be stored in water to assure that the seals do not dry out, but should be started while still submerged in the water for a few seconds during the winter months so the barrier between the seals and shaft do not fuse together
