Looks like the same pumps in Galway Bay Brewery. They suck/syphon with a hose too so you dont have to prime (is that the correct term?) Just fill your buckets with your cleaning solution & chuck the hose in the bucket.
On tap: Flanders, Gose,
Fermenting: Oatmeal Brown, 200ish Fathoms,
Ageing: bretted 1890 export stout.
To brew:  2015 RIS, Kellerbier, Altbier.

Great find.

It's called a diaphragm pump or breweries just call them a 'transfer pump' for anything post fermentation.

That's a centrifugal pump, not a diaphragm. You can get self-priming centrifugals but this isn't one of them, so you'd need a free gravity flow into it for it to work.  Great workhorse pumps  as long as you recognize their limitations. Diaphragm pumps are normally air driven, you can get electric diaphragm pumps but not for 100EU which in fairness is a great price for a pump that size.
