Pump type and intended use
The Dayton 4HU80 is a manual submersible sewage pump rated at 1/2 HP for 115 V single-phase supply. It handles solids up to 2 in diameter and is built with a cast-iron body, cast-iron impeller and carbon-ceramic shaft seal. The hermetically sealed, oil-filled motor suits residential or light-commercial waste-water lifting where automatic switching is provided separately. It is not for clean-water circulation, high-head dewatering or installations that require an integrated float switch.
Capacity and headroom
Flow rates are 111 gpm at 10 ft of head, 85 gpm at 15 ft and 43 gpm at 20 ft, showing strong output at low head that drops sharply as lift increases. The 12.00 A draw at 120 V AC gives a clear electrical load figure for circuit planning. The pump will not suit applications needing sustained flow above 20 ft of head or solids larger than the rated 2 in passage.
Thermals, noise and power draw
The oil-filled, hermetically sealed motor dissipates heat directly into the pumped liquid, so running temperatures stay stable during normal cycles. Submerged operation keeps airborne noise low compared with dry-mounted units. Continuous current is 12.00 A at 120 V, giving a predictable power profile for the supply circuit. California Proposition 65 notices apply to chemicals present in the product materials.

Questions about this item
Will the 2-inch discharge on this pump connect to my existing 2-inch PVC pipe?
The pump has a 2-inch discharge and passes solids up to 2 inches in diameter, so it matches standard 2-inch PVC piping without an adapter.
How can I confirm the 1/2 HP motor is delivering the rated flow after installation?
At 10 feet of head the pump should move 111 gpm, at 15 feet 85 gpm, and at 20 feet 43 gpm; measure the discharge rate against those points.
Does the box include a float switch or do I need to buy one separately?
No switch is included — the specifications list "Switch Actuation No Switch Included" — so a separate float switch and its wiring must be purchased.
