DAB DTRON2 35/120 Pressure Pump for Tanks and Wells
The DTRON2 35/120 is a 7-inch submersible pump that carries its own pressure control, check valve and expansion vessel inside one sealed body. This US model, part number 60197690, runs on 115V, 60 Hz single phase. Its 0.8 HP motor draws about 8.8 A. Flow reaches roughly 34 GPM, and maximum head is about 146 ft. The pump starts when line pressure falls to the factory cut-in of 34.8 psi, then stops once demand ends. Water leaves through a 1-1/4 in NPT outlet on top of the body. The supply cable is 49 ft long and ends in a standard plug. A 0.04 L built-in vessel soaks up small draws and softens water hammer. The motor jacket is AISI 304 stainless steel, while the pump casing and filter are technopolymer. Maximum diameter is 7.28 in, and the unit weighs about 25.1 lb.
Setting Up an Electronic Multi-Impeller Pump for Irrigation
This pump suits growers who store water below grade and want pressure at the bench without a pump house. Rainwater cisterns, RO holding tanks and shallow wells are the usual homes for it. It can sit as deep as 39 ft below the water surface. Supplied spacers lift the intake 1.4, 1.6, 2.4 or 3.2 in off the floor, keeping it above settled sediment. Built-in protections cover dry running, motor overheating and pressure spikes from frozen pipes. An internal relief valve guards against ice and water hammer. The pump handles clean water from 32 to 122°F and allows up to 60 starts per hour. For low-water cutoff, DAB's float sensor clips into an NFC pocket without opening the pump. Fitted to the DOC68 base, it can also work as a surface pump on positive suction. Abrasive sand or silt will wear the impellers, so screen any source that carries grit.
Key Features
- All-in-one control: Pressure sensing, start-stop logic, check valve and expansion vessel live in the pump, so no tank or pressure switch is needed.
- Plug-in supply: A 49 ft cable with a 115V plug runs straight to an outlet near the tank.
- Adjustable intake height: Spacers set the intake above the tank floor so settled debris stays where it is.
- Built-in protections: Dry-run cutout, thermal overload and a relief valve protect the motor and pipework.
- Float sensor ready: An optional float sensor clips into the NFC pocket for low-water shutdown without opening the pump.
- Surface option: With the DOC68 base, the same pump installs outside the tank on positive suction.
