2 INSTRUTIONS General decscription The Premium-Line Water pump will lift a large volume of water and functions from 3 to 12 Volts. Place in the pump in a flat transparent container of water with water covering the turbine housing but not touching the motor. The outlet water pipe can be arranged so the pumped water flows back into the container. The transparent nature of any holder allows the function of the pump to be observed. The construction proccess includes marking out, drilling and assembly. This kind of pump is known as a centrifuge type.in this model a turbine connected to a motor turns inside a closed housing.the water enters the housing through a hole and is accelerated by the turbine to the outside through a tube. Where as in the water tube a high pressure exists in the pump entry is a low pressure. It is important that no air bubbes form in the turbine housing - they will have to be removed by suction. Housing cover and motor holder ecause the three acrylic plates must fit exactly over each other they should all be drilled at the same time. Lay the acrylic plates, and on top of each other and fix them together with sellotape or masking tape and drill the holes as descirbed in Dia 1 ø - Straw or ø6 - Tube I Drilling the fixing holes in the housing and middle Fix the three acrylic plates together with sellotape.
