Pedestal Pump Trap Overview

The Dayton 3ACA9 is a brass-bodied pedestal pump trap with Buna-N impeller and stainless-steel shaft. It handles maximum flow of 5.9 gpm and develops up to 70 ft of head at 30.3 psi operating pressure. The unit is self-priming and rated for viscosities up to 5,000 SUS.

Installation Requirements

The pump connects via 1/2 in NPT inlet and outlet ports and uses a close-coupled motor mount requiring 1/3 hp input. Self-priming design eliminates separate priming steps, while the brass housing and stainless shaft resist corrosion in typical drain-component service.

Suitable Applications

This trap suits drainage systems needing a compact pedestal pump with 1/2 in NPT connections and self-priming operation. It is not intended for installations requiring higher flow rates, greater head pressure, larger port sizes or alternative mounting configurations.

Highlights

  • Self-priming operation enables quick start-up
  • Brass housing provides corrosion resistance
  • Stainless steel shaft ensures durability
  • 9 gpm maximum flow rate handles demanding applications
  • 70 ft maximum head delivers strong pressure performance

Questions about this item

How high a head can the pump sustain at 5.9 gpm before flow drops off?

The impeller pump is rated for a maximum head of 70 ft at 5.9 gpm, so sustained flow will fall once the system resistance exceeds that figure.

What is the maximum operating pressure the housing and seals can handle during continuous operation?

The brass housing and Buna-N impeller are rated for a maximum operating pressure of 30.3 psi, which limits the discharge pressure under all-day use.

What horsepower motor and shaft coupling are required to drive this close-coupled pedestal pump?

A 1/3 hp motor with a 1/2 in stainless-steel shaft is needed for the close-coupled mount, and the pump is self-priming with 1/2 in NPT inlet and outlet.
