Frequently Asked Questions
What are the main specifications of the Cigma UK 3 Inch High Pressure Diesel Water Pump?
Key details: Model: Cigma UK 3-Inch High Pressure Diesel Water Pump; Inlet/Outlet Diameter: 3 inches (80mm) for high flow capacity; Engine: 16HP, 4-stroke, single-cylinder, air-cooled diesel engine, 498cc displacement; Maximum Head Lift: 110m (based on similar models like Hisaki 16HP); Maximum Flow Rate: 40m³/h (667 L/min). See the Key Features and Specifications sections above for the full list.
What size petrol or diesel pump do I need?
Match flow and head to the job. A 2-inch pump typically moves roughly 400–600 litres per minute and a 3-inch pump roughly 1,000 litres per minute or more. Check the flow and head figures in the specifications above.
How high can it suck water?
Surface pumps can only lift water a limited height by suction. At sea level the practical limit is about 7–8 metres, and in highland areas such as Nairobi and Kiambu it is lower, so plan on about 5–6 metres. For deeper sources use a submersible pump.
How much land can it irrigate?
It depends on flow, pressure and crop. Vegetables on a dry-season day can need very roughly 20,000–30,000 litres per acre. Divide your daily need by the pump's hourly flow to see the pumping hours required.
My pump will not prime or has low flow. What should I check?
Fill the pump casing with water, check the suction hose and foot valve for air leaks, keep the suction pipe short, and clean the strainer and impeller. A worn impeller or blocked foot valve also cuts flow.
What pipe size should I use?
Use pipe at least as large as the pump inlet and outlet. For long delivery runs, go up a size to reduce friction loss.
