Description
The RIDGID Model 1450 pressure testing pump is de-
signed to pressure test all types of fluid systems for leaks
including heating, compressed air, oil, fire sprinkler, and
small bore pipeline systems. The Model 1450 uses a
variable lever-arm design and automatic pressure holding
valves to enable the user to easily pressurize the system.
NOTE! Test pressures can be achieved very easily with the
Model 1450. Use caution when pressurizing the
system by watching the pump's pressure gauge
closely. Pressurizing systems above the pump's
rated pressure of 50 Bar/725 psi can cause damage
to the pump's components.
