Do these work on the same principal as the wet sandblasting attachments?

If not, could someone please explain how they work?

Does the water sucked up go through the pump?  

Im needing one as we are cleaning the inside of a barge and need to pump the water out of the wells in the floor and need to get down into small ammounts of water which a normal sub pump wont reach.

Cheers,

Matt

Watch this Matt. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0gXVtIcqKY

We've just bought one and we're sucking up canal water into the tanks then washing paving on job.

Fills up 1000 litre IBC in about 3 minutes.

Inside the cast sucker is a pencil jet nozzle. Your pressure washing fires water through and it creates and back syphon vacuum and sucks like f**k!!!

How much water does it use to cause the suction if that makes sense?

Looks like a v useful tool.

We leave enough water in the IBC tank that is just over the tap so roughly 50-80 litres. Once this fires through, the water you're drawing is going into the same tank and clearly rising but if you're pumping from one tank to fill another tank you will drain the first as you need to pump to receive.

So if you wanted to transfer a chemical from one tank to another it would dilute with the water you're pumping unless you start off with chemical and pump the chem to draw the chem.

Very simple but f**k me an quality tool.

This canal job we're on we have the trailer being pushed down the paving drawing when needed, no need to tow away to fill from FH.

I'm thinking of saving rain water from gutter downspout then pumping into van.
