For properties requiring automated water delivery without constant monitoring, the HD400-T18 combines bore extraction capability with a pre-assembled pressure system. The integrated 18 litre pressure tank maintains system pressure while reducing pump cycling during intermittent water demand for troughs and storage tanks.
The hydraulic performance delivers a maximum flow of 65 L/Min with a maximum head of 46 metres, driven by the 0.75 kW single-phase motor. The mechanical pressure switch activates at predetermined settings, ensuring water availability whenever outlets are opened while the tank stores sufficient volume for small draw-offs without starting the motor.
The thermoplastic injector features a smooth internal geometry that minimises turbulence and maximises energy transfer from the pump to the water column. Resistant to saline conditions and mineral deposits, this injector design includes no moving components or electrical elements within the bore, contributing to trouble-free operation in demanding groundwater environments.
This package includes the DW33 injector kit, a fully assembled water kit with Type D pressure switch, pressure gauge, and gate valve, plus an 18 litre pressure tank. The heavy-duty cast iron construction supports dependable operation in demanding agricultural environments, while the stainless steel barrel union enables straightforward priming and routine service access.
