1/2 HP Convertible Jet Pump with Pressure Switch, 115V/230V, Cast Iron for Residential and Irrigation

The FloForce FJPC-050 is an exceptional 1/2 HP Convertible Jet Pump designed to meet the diverse needs of residential, agricultural, and irrigation applications. This powerful pump operates on dual voltage, allowing it to function at either 115V or 230V, making it versatile for various environments and situations.

One of the standout features of the FJPC-050 is its convertible design. Unlike traditional shallow well jet pumps that have a jet ejector permanently located within the pump, this model allows for flexibility with a removable jet ejector assembly. This means you can position the jet ejector either at the pump for shallow well applications or place it within the water well itself, effectively converting the pump into a deep well pump. This adaptability is particularly beneficial for wells that extend up to 82 feet deep, ensuring efficient operation even in areas with fluctuating water tables.

Convertible jet pumps like the FloForce FJPC-050 are suitable for all types of wells, including drilled, dug, and sand-point wells, as well as ponds and lakes. The jet ejector assembly is included with this pump, providing everything you need for installation right out of the box. However, it’s important to note that other components typically necessary for a complete installation, such as a foot valve (SKU# 527T06) and a pressure gauge (SKU# 356-100PK1), are sold separately.

In terms of specifications, the FloForce FJPC-050 features a 1-1/4′ NPT suction inlet and a 1′ NPT outlet, ensuring a robust connection for effective water flow. Additionally, the pump includes three 1/4′ NPT ports with plugs—one on the top for priming, one on the bottom for drainage, and one on the side for an optional pressure gauge. This thoughtful design enhances the usability and maintenance of the pump.

The jet pump’s voltage is factory set to 230V, but it can be easily changed to 115V by adjusting the switch from the 230V to the 115V position, as detailed in the installation manual. This feature simplifies the transition between power sources, providing added convenience for the user.

Moreover, the included pressure switch is factory set to operate within a range of 20-40 psi. For those who require a different operating range, it can be adjusted to function at 30-50 psi, with instructions conveniently located on the switch cover for easy reference.

In summary, the FloForce FJPC-050 1/2 HP Convertible Jet Pump is an excellent choice for anyone in need of a reliable and adaptable water pumping solution. Its dual voltage capability, durable cast iron construction, and user-friendly features make it a standout product for both residential and agricultural applications.
