Product Description
A professional quality automatic 4 bar pump with stainless steel motor body and 0.8hp motor. Fully waterproof (IP68), submersible and self-priming. Ideal for domestic and garden non-potable water supply. This powerful pump can withstand total submersion in water or can be externally connected to a tank or large above ground water butt. Waterproof therefore very safe to use in the garden (IP68).
Use stored water and rain water to supply drip irrigation systems as well as conventional hose guns and sprinklers with this self-priming garden pump. A great way to be more water efficient by using rainwater to irrigate the plants in your garden or for washing your car.
With a high pressure of 4bar this pump provides a higher pressure than the average UK tap pressure, although actual performance does depend on the length and diameter of the watering hose that you use.
The XAJE80P intelligent pump responds to pressure in the delivery pipe. It turns itself on when there is a demand for water, then switches off again automatically once the demand has been met. This pump is sometimes sold in the UK and Europe as an XAJE80G (the only difference being the red colour of the polypropylene electrical covers/ends of the "G").
This automatic pump comes, as standard, with anti-blocking system and dry run protection with automatic restart. It also comes with a Non-return Valve (NRV) that you screw into the water inlet.
It is very quiet in use. Their extremely low noise and vibration levels are due to the use of larger, smoother running motor components, a single piece rotor shaft, and a 360 degree water jacket surrounding the motor. Noise Absorption is maximised, making them far more pleasant to live with than a traditional air-cooled pump. This water cooled design and stainless steel stator housing remove heat from the motor faster than any other type of design. Unlike air and oil cooled pumps, which warm up quickly in hot rooms and sunny positions, increasing susceptibility to stress and fatigue, SteelPumps stay as cool as the water they are pumping.
This is a clean water pump which means that collected rainwater needs to be filtered before it enters the pump. This can either be done when collecting the water using a quality downpipe diverter that also filters the water, like the 3P Filter Collector Universal, before it enters your rainwater storage vessel.
Pump Warranty
This is a high quality professional pump that comes with a 2 year warranty when properly installed. SteelPumps are designed to be serviceable long into the future with common service components located behind an easy to remove electrical cover. The capacitor, pressure switch, flow sensor and control unit are all easily accessed.
Pump Repairs and Servicing
Disassembly of the entire pump is straightforward using basic tools, and ALL parts, including nuts and bolts, are available to order individually from the manufacturers website: wwww.steelpumps.co.uk. There are no corrodible mechanical parts within the pump, no potted electronics, no crimped wiring (everything unplugs). Service diagrams and information provided on request.
While other brands are ‘production engineered’ to be assembled fast and never taken apart, Steelpumps can be maintained for as long as spares are made. They are designed to last.
Optional Extras
Carry Handle
Add this easy to fit carrying handle to make this a truly portable pump for use in your garden and around your home.
Multi-hosetail Reducer
The multi-hosetail reducer screws into the 1.25" outlet at the top of the pump and enables you to connect 1", 3/4" and 1/2" garden hoses to your pump. Hoses simply push over the hosetail reducer. The ribbed sections of the reducer hold the hose in place.
Pump to Water Tank Connector
The Pump to Tank connecting kit connects your SteelPump to any water butt or water tank with a 3/4" BSP threaded port. This superbly specified kit allows the tank to be shut off without any loss of water. It comprises of 2 x brass flat seals, 1m of quality flexible hose and 1 brass shut-off valve. The flat seals are particularly handy as they allow the pump and tank to be threaded to the pipe without having to twist the pipe.

FAQs
What is the difference between the "P", "B" and "PRO" versions of SteelPumps?
The "P", "B" and "PRO" suffixes of the SteelPump range of intelligent pumps refers to the build properties of the pumps. Essentially;
- P = Designed primarily for portable and garden use.
- B = Designed for domestic and light commercial use.
- PRO = Extensive use of stainless steel and brass within the pump build and therefore designed for commerical and industrial use.
