UDOR Pump - Kappa 18/12
Overview
Product Description
The Udor Kappa 18/12 is a low-pressure, two-diaphragm electric 12 V pump that features the largest flow and pressure rating in its class. Recommended for use with 12 V DC deep cycle marine battery. This pump draws between 22 and 30 A, depending on pressure.
These Kappa Series 12 V DC Powered Diaphragm Pumps are well suited for various weed control, pest control, horticultural, agricultural, lawn care, and injection spraying applications. They easily handle the pumping and spraying of a wide variety of agricultural chemicals, such as herbicides, pesticides, liquid fertilizers, abrasive materials, de-icing materials, and other hard-to-handle fluids.
Excellent for use in commercial landscaping weed spray applications. It can really only supply one spray wand and maintain pressure.
This unit is commonly found on US Weed Man electric sprayers.
There is a small sight glass, found on the side of the pump with a red dot. If you notice that the pump oil looks a little milky gray in color, it is time to replace the main diaphragms because the oil is mixed with spray. Do not run the pump with mixed oil, it will shorten the life of the pump. If you rely on an Udor diaphragm pump (or any diaphragm pump) for your living, it is always wise to keep a repair kit on hand. Based on our experience, the day you need the pump most is the same day the diaphragms will fail.
