1. The Inlet and Outlet Ports on the Utility
Pump are both dual threaded with an
Inside Diameter of 3/8” NPT and an
Outside Diameter of 3/4”. This allows
for more versatility in selecting a suction

In addition, the height from the inlet
to the pump and then the height from
the outlet to the discharge will greatly
impact pump performance.
