Descrip on

 

 

This opera on and maintenance manual applies to the Fast Flow Pump model FF 3DTA submersible pump, made up of 

two major components—the pump head manufactured by Fast Flow Pumps and the Hydraulic Motor mounted on the 

Pump Head. In order to use this pump system you will also require supply and return hydraulic hose and an hydraulic 

power unit. 

The pump head has a heavy-duty impeller blade design that will handle varied and severe service use that many other 

systems cannot. The unique double suc on pump design uses suc on from both sides of the impeller, elimina ng 

impeller thrust loading and is ideally suited for tank cleaning. Fast Flow is the only known centrifugal pump that does 

not have any mechanical seals and has no internal fric on. The FF pump system is ideal for abrasive waste pumping, 

enviro pumping, barge cleaning, dewatering, and wash down applica ons or the pumping of any slurried solids. Please 

note that any use of this pump outside of approved applica ons can cause damage to the pump. Please read this 

manual thoroughly before using this pump system. 

Patent Informa on 

Fast Flow Pumps are covered by U.S. Patent No.6,942,448, No. 7,442,003, No. 8,152,443, No. 10,138,891 and 
other USPTO Patents Pending, European Union Patent, and protected interna onally under the Patent 

Coop-
