12-Volt Stainless Steel Centrifugal Pumps - A Comparison
"Beware of little expenses; a small leak will sink a great ship." -- Benjamin Franklin One of our specialties at SampleServe.com is sampling groundwater. As such, we have used a variety of types of pumps in a multitude of makes and models. In this article I am going to tell you about two 12-volt stainless steel centrifugal pumps I've used and explain why I like one over the other. The two pumps I am reviewing are the Geotech SS Geosub 12 VDC Sampling Pump and the Proactive Stainless Steel Hurricane® XL . I am not aware of any other makers of "stainless steel" environmental 12-volt pumps sold in the US. There are plastic 12-volt pumps; however, plastic pumps are not part of my evaluation. I've had the opportunity to use both of these pumps at length. I used the Geosub Pump recently on a large project in Ohio and sampled approximately 30 - 40 wells with the pump. The pump performed fine without any maintenance or operational problems.
