RAIN BIRD CLP Series Compact Low Profile 10HP VFD Pump Station Owner’s

Manual

Rain Bird’s CLP Series pump station is designed for boost and flooded suction applications. The CLP Series is a complete pump package that is simple to install and operate. It includes a professional grade pump, a marine-grade aluminum enclosure, highest quality pump protection, and optional mounting for a Rain Bird controller. Home owner associations, small sports fields, schools, parks, and small agricultural projects are ideal applications. The CLP Series compact design, durable centrifugal boost pump, and ease of installation, make this a perfect solution for applications with flows up to 160 GPM. With this complete solution there is no need to deal with the hassle of stick building a pump station with non-compatible parts and a makeshift enclosure. Only Rain Bird provides a totally integrated irrigation solution with UL listed components and a one year warranty that dependably delivers healthy and beautiful landscapes, saving time and minimizing maintenance.
