Applications: A Wallace MAXIPUMP OR HYDROJET automatic pressure system can supply house or garden.
MPEP3000, MPEP5000, HJ60, HJ100, OR HJ140 provide a constant pressure at a constant flow. HJ60PT OR
HJ100PT will provide varying pressure within a set pressure band.
MPEP3000, MPEP5000, HJ60PT, HJ100PT, HJ60, HJ100, OR HJ140 operate from above or below ground rain
water tanks, spear points or any other clean water source.
