Advice On What Pump I Need

[Arnold2408]

Could someone advise me on a decent pump to transfer water from a holding tank in my shed to jerry cans in my van please. At worst it will have to be pumped about 50 meters. Does the distance I have to pump the water greatly effect how quickly I can refill? The quicker the better obviously.

Thanks

How long will it take to transfer about 400 litres?

Depends on the diametre on the hose.

I have a clarke submersable pump with 2inch diametre layflat hose (machine mart) and fills a 650 tank from empty in around 20/25 mins.

Edit : it pumps through 20 metres of hose

I transfer 350L in normal garden hose pipe in about 25/30 minutes.
