JOHNSON PUMP - SPX FLOW CART. Aerator Pump 500 GPH STR

The CART Aerator Pump 500 GPH STR is designed for easy installation and use in a variety of marine applications. The pump can function effectively in a sideways position and can operate with the intake hole in water even if the pump is situated 2.5 feet above the water level. Its 6-inch intake provides efficient water drawing capabilities, and it can be used with a 6-volt power source, albeit with reduced pressure. The intake and outtake diameters are standard, making them suitable for most marine setups. However, the threading of the pump may not be compatible with standard 3/4"NPT threads, so it's important to ensure compatibility before purchase.
