Compact Submersible Pump 1/90 HP

The Dayton 12U596 is a centrifugal submersible pump rated at 1/90 horsepower for 115 V AC supply. It suits residential drainage, sump pits or small transfer tasks where a portable, plug-in unit is preferred. Oil-filled motor sealing allows continuous duty without external lubrication. The screened intake handles dirty water while protecting the impeller.

1/2 in Intake 1/4 in NPT Discharge

A 1/2 inch intake pipe and 1/4 inch NPT discharge connect directly to common hose or piping, so no special fittings are required. The six-foot cord plugs into a standard outlet, freeing the installer from wiring a junction box. Continuous duty rating means the pump can run unattended for long periods during heavy inflow. Oil compatibility extends use to oily wastewater situations.

1.4 A Draw 7.8 ft Max Head

At 1.4 amps the motor draws modest power from a household circuit. Maximum shut-off head reaches 7.8 feet, delivering 380 gallons per hour at one foot of head and 248 gallons per hour at five feet. Oil-filled construction suppresses mechanical noise and dissipates heat during extended operation. The zinc-alloy housing resists corrosion in wet environments.

Questions about this item

How high can the 1/90 hp motor push water before flow stops?

The pump reaches a maximum head of 7.8 ft; at that height flow drops to zero, so plan for less lift in continuous use.

What happens to heat and noise when the oil-filled motor runs continuously?

Oil filling dissipates heat and dampens sound, allowing continuous duty without overheating or excessive noise.

What pipe fittings must I already have to connect the 1/2 in intake and 1/4 in NPT discharge?

You need a 1/2 in hose or pipe for the screened intake and a 1/4 in NPT fitting for the discharge side.
