{"product_id":"72040001600014","title":"Multiquip 72040001600014 Suction Cover NPT 2\" - OEM Replacement Part for Centrifugal Water Pumps","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis suction cover protects and seals the 2-inch NPT suction port on Multiquip centrifugal water pumps, ensuring proper priming performance and preventing debris from entering the pump housing when not in operation. The suction port on these models is a two-inch male NPT-threaded connection that accommodates threaded hoses or rigid pipes for clear water pumping applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe QP2B and QP2H pumps feature self-priming centrifugal designs with maximum pumping capacities of 158 gallons per minute and suction lift capabilities up to 25 feet at sea level. The suction port assembly is a critical component for maintaining the pump's priming ability, which can be reduced by approximately one foot for every 1,000 feet of elevation above sea level due to decreased atmospheric pressure. Proper sealing at the suction port is essential for achieving the pump's maximum head of 115 feet and preventing air leaks that compromise priming performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis cover is specifically designed for use with reinforced suction hoses that prevent collapse during operation. Regular inspection of the suction port and cover ensures optimal pump performance for residential dewatering applications including basements and swimming pools.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatible with the following Multiquip models:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQP2B\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQP2H\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eGenuine Multiquip OEM part, sold by an authorized dealer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Multiquip","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43066627850288,"sku":"72040001600014","price":115.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/6574\/7248\/files\/72040001600014.png?v=1779816181","url":"https:\/\/cce-industries.com\/products\/72040001600014","provider":"CCE Industries","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
