PowerSnake High Volume Wash Down Pump (Self Priming)

Designed and built by us, specifically for washing down milking parlours and live stock containers, the PowerSnake MK5 wash down pump is simple, reliable and can draw water from a well, stream or rainwater tank.

Whilst the PowerSnake MK5 is most commonly used for agricultural applications it is also suitable for industrial uses where aggressive, swift cleaning is required (such as on a boat, dependent on power supply available).

Water pump operation is completely automatic; the wash down pump automatically starts and stops in response to the heavy duty brass nozzle/gun. With a simple twist the parlour wash down gun adjusts water from a fine spray to a solid flow.

Also equipped with dry run protection, this wash down pump will stop in the event of lack of water (one of the biggest causes of pump failure).

PowerSnake MK5 is supplied as a complete wash down pump kit which includes:
►Ebara manufactured cast iron, self priming jet pump
►Automatic pump controller
►Delivery Hose: Torsino Plus 1" x 25 Metre (8 bar working pressure)
►VoluSpray Wash Down Gun
►All connecting pipe fittings
►3 Metres Power Cable

Whisper Pumps now offers the option to pair the Powersnake with our 20-bar working pressure upgraded hose - the ultimate choice for toughness and durability. 

Suction hose should be purchased separately here, choose 1-1/2" size in required length. 

All products have been handpicked by us as the most reliable within the market. We have now been selling this dairy wash down pump kit to farmers nationwide for over a decade (inline with efficiency improvements over the years).

NOTE: Due to a regulation change, our Powersnake pump is now supplied with a single phase, IE2 specification motor (Higher Efficiency).
A side effect of this change, has been an increase in startup current. This means that some customers may experience issues when running this item from a standard 13A socket. In this instance, using a 16A supply, or hard wiring the product is recommended. Feel free to contact us for further information.
