Pacer Pump Range — Quick Reference
Pacer = LONG-ESTABLISHED pump manufacturer building SELF-PRIMING CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS for industrial + agricultural + marine + dewatering applications. Robust construction + sustained operation.
| Pacer Pump | Best For |
|---|---|
| Pacer Self-Priming Centrifugal | Dewatering + water transfer |
| Pacer Chemical Pump | Chemical transfer — polypropylene |
| Pacer Agricultural Pump | Spray + irrigation |
| Pacer Marine Pump | Saltwater + marine applications |
| Pacer Trash Pump | Dirty water + small solids |
| Common Drives (Petrol / Electric / PTO) | Match to site power |
Critical: Match pump MATERIAL to media — chemical pump uses polypropylene; standard centrifugal cast iron. Self-priming pumps eliminate manual priming step. Brand: Pacer. Companion: pumps + fluid handling, chemical pumps, water pumps.
Pacer Pumps
Pacer is a long-established pump manufacturer building self-priming centrifugal pumps for industrial, agricultural, marine, and dewatering applications. The pumps are widely used across Australian industry where chemical resistance, dry-running tolerance, and reliable priming matter more than headline flow numbers. AIMS Industrial supplies Pacer pumps to trade and industrial customers.
The Pacer range at AIMS
- Self-priming centrifugal pumps — handle solids in suspension, prime from dry, and tolerate intermittent dry running
- Chemical pumps — polypropylene and reinforced polyester construction for aggressive fluids
- Engine-driven pumps — petrol and diesel-driven units for site dewatering and remote operation
- Electric pumps — single-phase and three-phase motor-driven units for fixed installations
- Replacement parts — impellers, seals, gaskets, and casing components for service and overhaul
Where Pacer earns its place
Pacer's strength is the chemical-resistant pump body — polypropylene and polyester construction handles fluids that would corrode a cast-iron pump in weeks. That makes them the right choice for chemical transfer, dewatering contaminated water, agricultural spray supply, and industrial process applications where the fluid is anything but clean water.
Sizing and selection
Pump selection is driven by flow rate, head pressure, fluid characteristics (viscosity, solids content, chemistry), and drive type (electric versus engine, single-phase versus three-phase). Match the pump to the duty point — oversizing wastes power and undersizing fails to deliver. Manufacturer curves are the right starting point.

People Also Ask — Pacer
Q: Why would a Pacer chemical pump be built from polypropylene rather than cast iron?
Match pump material to the media being handled — a chemical pump uses polypropylene or reinforced polyester construction to handle fluids that would corrode a cast-iron pump body in weeks, while a standard centrifugal pump uses cast iron for general water transfer.
Q: What does 'self-priming' mean for a Pacer centrifugal pump, and why does it matter?
A self-priming pump eliminates the manual priming step — it can prime from dry and tolerate intermittent dry running, which matters for dewatering and site work where the pump can't always be kept flooded before starting.
Q: What factors determine the right Pacer pump for a given job?
Pump selection is driven by flow rate, head pressure, fluid characteristics such as viscosity and solids content and chemistry, and drive type — electric versus engine, single-phase versus three-phase — matched to the duty point using the manufacturer's curves.
Q: What happens if a Pacer pump is oversized or undersized for the application?
Oversizing wastes power and undersizing fails to deliver the required flow or head — matching the pump to the duty point on the manufacturer's curves is the right approach rather than guessing at a size.
Q: What can be sourced separately when servicing or overhauling an existing Pacer pump?
Impellers, seals, gaskets, and casing components are stocked for service and overhaul of Pacer pumps already in the field.
