APP MVH-10 Automatic Well Pump 230v Auto - Ideal for Irrigation and Sprinkler Systems
Built for the job
Automatic Submersible Pump for Water Butts, Irrigation and Sprinkler Systems
Float Switch Controlled Pump for Clean Water Applications
The MVH-10 is an automatic submersible pump designed for clean water use in tanks, water butts and irrigation systems, including rainwater.
The MVH-10 operates via a float switch, so it runs based on water level rather than demand. It will run while submerged and switch off automatically if the level drops.
The pump can be powered on or off at the plug, but operation is still controlled by the float switch.
If you’re looking to run a garden irrigation system or sprinklers, this is typically a suitable option where water is being discharged freely.
Where this pump is typically used
The MVH-10 is commonly used for:
- Water butts and storage tanks
- Garden irrigation and sprinkler systems
- Rainwater harvesting
- Spraying and washdown
It is best suited to systems where water flows continuously when the pump is running.
Why choose the MVH-10
- Well suited to sprinklers and irrigation setups
- Automatic float switch operation (level-based)
- High pressure output for hose and spray use
- Robust stainless steel construction
- Compact and easy to install
- 230V single phase supply
How it operates
The MVH-10 is not pressure controlled.
- It does not start and stop when a tap is opened or closed
- It runs when submerged and switches off when water level drops
If you need a pump that responds to taps or hose triggers, a pressure-controlled pump such as the Divertron would be more suitable.
Build and design
The MVH-10 is built using corrosion-resistant and hard-wearing materials for long service life.
Key construction features include:
- 304 stainless steel motor housing, strainer and reinforced outlet
- 410 stainless steel shaft
- Silicon carbide mechanical seal in a chamber of non-toxic oil
- Heavy-duty bearings for reliable operation
The casing, head cover, base plate and impellers are manufactured from thermoplastic to provide strength while keeping the pump lightweight.
The pump includes an integral starting capacitor and is supplied with a 10 metre heavy-duty power cable.
The outlet is horizontal as standard.
For vertical discharge, a nipple and female BSP elbow hose tail can be added.
