1 INTRODUCTION
AL100 & 150 Diesel Driven Centrifugal Pumps
The purpose of this handbook is to provide
operating guidelines and routine maintenance
instructions for the SPP AUTOPRIME AL
Range of mobile diesel engine driven pumps.
Instructions and statements contained within
this handbook are given with our best
intentions and are correct at the time of
compilation. They are subject to alteration at
any time.
These pumps are most commonly supplied
mounted on 4 wheel site trailers but can also
be supplied mounted on 2 wheel road trailers
or skid mounted.
AL pumps are primed by a vacuum pump
through a mechanical priming system and are
driven by a water-cooled diesel engine.
The M series pumps are supplied with a high
performance impeller.
