Berkeley 5SN Jet Pump 5.60 Gpm Water Supply

Product Description

The BERKELEY 5SN is a jet pump designed for water supply applications in residential and light commercial settings. Jet pumps draw water from a well or other water source using a combination of suction and pressure, delivering consistent flow rates across varying head conditions. The 5SN delivers 5.60 GPM at 20 feet of head and 7.2 GPM at 10 feet of head, making it suited for shallow-well domestic water systems where moderate flow demand is required. At 45 pounds, the unit is a substantial piece of equipment that requires proper mounting and plumbing before commissioning.

The BERKELEY 5SN is intended for shallow-well water supply installations in residential homes, cabins, and light commercial facilities. Typical applications include domestic water pressure systems, irrigation supply, and cistern transfer where the static water level is within the operating range of a shallow-well jet pump. A licensed plumber or pump service technician handles installation in most jurisdictions.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified pump technician in accordance with local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off all power to the pump circuit before any service or wiring connections, and close the supply line before disconnecting plumbing. Ensure the pump is primed before initial start-up to prevent dry running, which can damage the impeller and seal assembly. Secure the unit to a level, rigid mounting surface to minimize vibration during operation.
