DAB JETCOM 82 M Self-Priming Jet Pump | 0.8 HP, 115/230V, 1 in NPT

DAB JETCOM 82 M Surface Pump for Lifting and Boosting Water

The JETCOM 82 M is a single-phase, self-priming centrifugal pump with a built-in venturi ejector. It uses a 0.8 HP motor wired for 115/230V, 60 Hz dual voltage. Current draw is about 8.2 A on 115V and 4.2 A on 230V. Flow runs up to 21 GPM, and maximum head reaches about 158 ft, or roughly 70 psi at shutoff. It can draw water from as far as 26 ft below the pump. The pump body and motor support are technopolymer, so the housing will not rust. Inside, the impeller and venturi diffuser are technopolymer too, with a carbon and ceramic mechanical seal. The shaft is AISI 416 stainless steel. Suction and discharge are both 1 in NPT. The motor is rated IP44 and runs with a 50 µF permanent capacitor.

Where a Self-Priming Jet Pump Fits in a Grow

A jet pump earns its place when the water sits below the pump, such as a buried cistern or a pond. It primes itself after the first fill, which means air in the suction line will not leave it stranded. Growers use it to move water from storage into a mixing tank or to feed a small drip zone. It also boosts pressure on a short header where mains supply runs weak. Mount it horizontally on a solid base, either fixed in place or set up as a portable unit. Fill the pump body with water before the first start, then let it pull the line full. Fit a foot valve and strainer at the end of the suction pipe to hold prime and stop debris. Keep the suction run airtight, because a single leaking joint can stop the pump from lifting. The pump handles clean water at 32 to 104°F, with a maximum working pressure of 87 psi. No power cord comes with it, so plan a hard-wired connection or fit a cord rated for the load.

Key Features

• Self-priming jet design: A built-in venturi ejector clears air from the suction line and lifts water from below the pump.
• Dual voltage: Wires for 115V or 230V, so one pump suits either supply in the building.
• Rust-free housing: Technopolymer pump body and motor support stand up to damp pump rooms.
• Deep suction lift: Pulls water from up to 26 ft below the pump, which suits cisterns and ponds.
• Matched 1 in NPT ports: Suction and discharge share one size for simple plumbing to a header or tank.
• Fixed or portable: Runs bolted down or moved between tanks, as long as it stays horizontal.
