MP Pumps 25984 FLOMAX Bronze 2 x 2in Self-Priming Centrifugal Pump
The FLOMAX line is a self-priming centrifugal pump series built for general industrial, agricultural, and marine transfer duty. Once primed, an internal flapper check valve holds a column of liquid in the suction line so the pump can re-prime on the next start without manual assistance.
This unit is rated up to 150 GPM with total head up to 100 feet. Suction and discharge connections are 2 x 2 inch. Wetted construction is bronze. This model is configured for close-coupled motor.
Always match by the MP Pumps part number 25984 stamped on the unit or listed on your equipment parts diagram, since pump configurations vary by mount type, material, and port size even within the same series.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What does self-priming mean for this pump?
A self-priming pump can clear air from its own suction line on startup rather than needing the line pre-filled with liquid, using an internal check valve to hold prime between runs.
Q: Can this pump run dry?
No. Running a centrifugal pump dry for more than a few seconds can damage the mechanical seal and impeller. Shut the pump off if it loses prime and will not reprime on its own.
Q: Is this a genuine MP Pumps part?
Yes, this is a genuine MP Pumps unit, sold under MP Pumps part number 25984.
Q: What maintenance does this pump need?
Periodically check the mechanical seal for leaks, inspect the impeller for wear, and keep the suction line free of debris that could clog or damage the impeller.
