Innovative Priming Systems for Superior Performance

Priming systems are crucial for efficient pump operation. Sykes Group offers a range of advanced priming options designed to assist your dewatering projects. Our priming systems ensure that your pumps operate at optimal efficiency, minimising downtime and maintenance costs.

Our primary priming systems include:

  • Compressor Venturi Priming System – Standard: This system adheres to standard configurations while using minimal moving parts. The absence of a float mechanism avoids common issues caused by debris or stringy materials.
  • Compressor Venturi Priming System – Anti-Spit: The Anti-Spit priming system provides enhanced control over fluid management, making it highly suited for construction, mining and civil projects.
  • Diaphragm Priming System: Known for its reliability and powerful air evacuation system, the diaphragm priming system is a robust choice for larger mining and civil dewatering projects.
  • Vacuum Priming System: Ideal for well-point ground dewatering, this system creates almost a full vacuum and can evacuate air at 60 cubic feet per minute, providing superior performance even in challenging conditions.

Each system is engineered to ensure seamless integration with our pumps, offering flexibility and reliability for any project.
