Self-Priming Centrifugal Pumps

Handle Polluted, Waste and Abrasive Fluids with Suspended Solids.

    Performance at demanding heights

    Varisco’s J-Series self-priming centrifugal pumps are ideal for applications requiring rapid priming from high suction heights while handling polluted, waste, and abrasive fluids with suspended solids. Their inspectable pump casing doubles as a water reservoir, enabling quick priming without auxiliary systems, simplifying management and reducing maintenance
    Varisco J-Series

    Ease of use

    • Above ground installation – for easier control, maintenance, and management compared to submerged or vertical shaft pumps.
    • Inspection and drainage covers – allow for easy filling, washing, and unclogging
    • Wear Parts Replacement – Easily replaceable components restore original performance.
