Ashland Water Group PP500NL Cast Iron Pitcher Pump

Product Description

The ASHLAND WATER GROUP PP500NL is a cast iron pitcher pump built for manual water lifting in applications where powered pumping is not available or practical. Tapped for a 1-1/4 inch pipe connection, it delivers a maximum lift of 25 feet and is constructed with no-lead compliance for use in potable water systems. At 18 pounds, the unit is heavy-duty cast iron construction designed for long service life in demanding conditions. Licensed plumbers and well service technicians are the primary installers for this type of equipment.

Pitcher pumps of this type are commonly installed over shallow hand-dug wells, cisterns, and storage tanks in residential, agricultural, and light commercial settings. The PP500NL suits applications where a simple, non-electric hand pump is required, including backup water supply installations, rural properties, and off-grid systems. Its no-lead cast iron body makes it appropriate for sites where potable water compliance is required.

Key Features

• Cast iron construction for durability in outdoor and agricultural environments
• No-lead compliant for use in potable water systems
• 1-1/4 inch pipe connection for standard plumbing integration
• Maximum lift of 25 feet for shallow well and cistern applications
• Manual operation requires no electrical power source

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new installation pitcher pump for shallow well, cistern, and storage tank systems using 1-1/4 inch pipe connections.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off and isolate the water source before making any pipe connections. Ensure the pipe connection is properly threaded and sealed with appropriate tape or pipe compound rated for potable water use. Do not exceed the 25-foot maximum lift specification, as operating beyond design limits will result in loss of prime and pump inefficiency.
