Can we setup popup springler system on pressure pump?

hungrymind

I have two large rainwater tanks (2000l each)connected to an 800W Ozito constant pressure pump. I would like to connect this setup to my lawn's pop-up sprinkler system. Is this possible, or could it potentially damage the pressure pump or the sprinkler system?

Hi @hungrymind,

A warm welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community and thank you for your question.

Yes, your setup can work with a pop-up sprinkler system if the pump's output matches the system's requirements.

The Ozito 800W Constant Pressure Pump has a flow rate of 3600 L/h, so as long as your system doesn't need more than this you will be fine. This is a lot of water, so you'd need an extremely robust sprinkler system to overload this pump.

The components you've used in your sprinkler system will have a maximum pressure rating. To ensure they are not damaged, you should check this rating with the manufacture. If needed, you can use a Pressure Reducer to lower the risk of damage to the sprinkler system.

Let me know if you have any further questions.
