From Virax, a 50-bar test pump designed for checking plumbing after installation or repair. The manual test pump can also be used to locate leaks in water pipes or central heating. Compact in design, the 5 litre pressure pump is ideal for use in applications where access is tight, and space is limited.
Manufactured from high-quality materials, the Virax 262035 pressure pump features a robust plastic tank that is lightweight and shock-resistant. A flexible 1.5m hydraulic hose with 3/8” and ” BSP couplings are included for secure pipeline connections.
Featuring a nylon strainer and filter on the inlet it helps to block particles exceeding 0.1mm diameter from entering and causing damage to the pump mechanism. Additionally, the 50 bar models include the Virax EA85 anti-limestone patented system. This extra feature prevents any blockages due to hard water or other deposits building up on the ball in the piston.
