Product Information
Full details
The Rothenberger TP25 Pressure Testing Pump is ideal for plumbers and heating engineers performing domestic pressure tests. Its key benefit is reliable and accurate system integrity verification up to 25 bar. A minor caveat is the 7-litre tank, which may require refilling for very large systems. This pump features a durable epoxy-coated galvanised steel tank, an integrated pressure gauge, a 1.20-meter hose with R1/2" BSPT connection, and a dual-valve system for precise pressure adjustment and pump self-testing.

FAQs
What is the maximum pressure the Rothenberger TP25 can test?
The Rothenberger TP25 can test systems up to a maximum pressure of 25 bar.
What type of connection does the hose have?
The included hose has a standard R1/2" BSPT connection.
How often should the pump be drained?
The pump should be completely drained after each use, especially before storage or in cold conditions, to prevent damage and corrosion.
Can this pump be used for gas systems?
This pump is designed for pressure testing water-based domestic plumbing and heating systems. It is not intended for gas system testing.
What is the purpose of the dual-valve system?
The dual-valve system (Twin Valve) allows for the pump to be self-tested and also provides precise fine adjustment of the pressure during testing.
Is the tank material resistant to corrosion?
Yes, the tank is made of galvanised steel with an epoxy coating, providing enhanced durability and resistance to corrosion.
How long is the included testing hose?
The testing hose is 1.20 meters long.
Troubleshooting
Pump fails to build pressure
Ensure the dual-valve system is correctly set for pressurisation and that all connections are tight. Check for any blockages in the intake or outlet.
Pressure gauge reading fluctuates wildly
Verify the testing hose is not expanding excessively. Ensure the steel mesh is intact and the gauge itself is functioning correctly. The dual-valve system might need adjustment for fine pressure control.
Leakage from the pump itself
Inspect seals and connections on the pump body and tank. Contact customer support if internal seals appear to be compromised.
Difficulty in priming the pump
Ensure the tank is sufficiently filled with water and that the intake is submerged. Try operating the pump a few times to draw water into the cylinder.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Robust and durable construction for longevity.
- Accurate pressure monitoring with an integrated gauge.
- Precise pressure control via the dual-valve system.
- Suitable for a wide range of domestic pressure testing applications.
- Hose design minimizes reading errors due to expansion.
Cons
- 7-litre tank may require multiple fillings for very large systems.
- Primarily designed for domestic, not heavy industrial, applications.
- Hose length is fixed at 1.20 meters, which might be limiting in some scenarios.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the pump is placed on a stable, level surface.
- Connect the 1.20-meter hose with the R1/2" BSPT connection to the system's test point.
- Fill the 7-litre tank with clean water or the appropriate testing fluid.
- Close the dual-valve system's isolation valve.
- Begin pumping to pressurise the system.
Compatibility:
- The R1/2" BSPT connection is standard for most domestic plumbing test points.
- Suitable for testing water-based domestic heating and plumbing systems.
Care:
- After use, drain the tank completely to prevent freezing and corrosion.
- Clean the exterior of the pump with a damp cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Store in a dry, frost-free environment.
- Periodically check the hose and connections for wear or damage.
