Introduction 13
Introduction
This manual provides instructions and technical specifications for the CFU03, CFU05,
and CFU-PWZ portable electric pumps. These units are equipped with a diaphragm
pump to avoid any pump priming issues and a bypass to ensure a constant flow.
Additional features apply to one or two of the specific pumps:
• CFU03 and CFU05: These pumps have a valve to control the outlet flow.
• CFU03 and CFU05: The water OUTLET for these pumps features a plastic quick-
coupling connection for 8 mm tubes.
• CFU05: This pump features water suction capability to reduce water loss when
used with water delay line wedges.
•CFU-PWZ:ThewaterOUTLET for this pump features a metallic quick-coupling
connection that is used specifically for the PipeWIZARD (PWZ).
• CFU-PWZ: This pump also features a remote control box and cable to start and
stop the water pump at a distance of up to 10 m.
This manual is organized into sections that allow a progressive understanding of the
CFU Water Pumps’ features and operation. Each section, however, is complete in
itself. This manual is therefore a useful reference.
