Gravity Feed Installation
of your Centrifugal Pump

This illustration shows a typical setup for a gravity feed system. Since most centrifugal pumps require priming, be sure to position pump at the bottom of the supply tank and retain a liquid level higher than the pump inlet port.

You can regulate the output flow with a ball valve or a flowmeter with a control valve on the discharge line.
