Shurflo 2088 SERIES PUMPS Diaphragm Pumps
The Shurflo 2088 Series Pumps are a line of diaphragm pumps that are commonly used in various applications such as mobile and industrial equipment, recreational vehicles, and marine systems.
There are several key features of Shurflo 2088 Series pumps, including the following:
- Self-priming: Pumps from the 2088 series are capable of self-priming, which means they can start up and run dry without running into any problems.
- Versatility: Mobile and industrial equipment, recreational vehicles, and marine systems can all benefit from these pumps.
- Pressure switch control: Built-in pressure switches turn the pump on and off automatically as needed, thereby reducing energy consumption and extending the pump’s lifetime.
- High flow rate: Since the pumps have a high flow rate, they are suitable for applications requiring high flow rates.
- Durable: The pumps from this series have a long lifespan and are built to withstand tough conditions.
- Chemical resistant: Chemical-resistant materials are used to construct the pumps, making them perfect for pumping a range of chemicals and harsh fluids.
- Easy to install and maintain: Pumps can be installed and maintained easily, making them suitable for many applications.

The Shurflo 2088 Series pumps have a maximum flow rate of 3.5 gallons per minute and a maximum pressure of 45 pounds per square inch. Furthermore, a pressure switch is required to control the pump, and 12 VDC is the required voltage.
Positive displacement diaphragm pumps from the SHURflo 2088 series deliver reliable performance in high-flows moderate-pressure applications. The pumps in the 2088 series are lightweight and have a convenient design. They can be mounted horizontally or vertically.
Listed below are some additional specifications of the Shurflo 2088 series pumps:
- Net Weight: 4.8 LBS or 2.18 KG
- Motor: Thermal protection
- Port Connections: 1/2″ MPT
- Check Valve prevents reverse flow
- 3-chamber diaphragm pump design
Plumbing:
- Inlet and outlet ports should be connected by flexible high-pressure tubing.
- The tubing should have an I.D. of 18 inches and be either 3/8″ or 12″ [10 or 13 mm] in diameter
- To minimize stress on fittings and ports, a length of 46 cm is recommended.
- It is best to avoid sharp bends that may cause the tubing to kink over time, and plan the shortest route possible.

Mounting:
- Pumps in the 2088 series have a self-priming feature. According to the viscosity of the fluid and the configuration of the pump, primes can be horizontal or vertical.
- Pumps should be placed in a dry, well-ventilated area. The motor may need to be cooled if it is enclosed.
- SHURflo offers a heat sink to dissipate heat from the motor.
- The pump can be mounted in a variety of ways. A vertically mounted pump should have its head pointing down so that any leaks won’t enter the motor.
- Use #8 hardware to secure the rubber feet. By compressing the feet, vibrations and noise will be reduced.
These Pumps are reliable and durable options for a wide range of applications that require high flow rates, self-priming, and chemically resistant diaphragm pumps.
