The Atlas Copco VAR 8-305 self-priming centrifugal pumps are for applications where the main feature is the difficulty in priming. Even with suction heights of several meters the machine quickly evacuates the air from the suction pipe and starts pumping. Additionally, thanks to the semi-open impeller, the VAR range is also suitable for pumping liquids with solids in suspension.
The VAR range contains features that not only meet, but exceed the needs of the market. It has been designed to be extremely efficient and versatile making it suitable for many industries, such as construction, general dewatering and emergency applications.
