No spec on the maximum operating temp plus it having check valves I bet it will collect grain particles and crap that may reduce the output.

I have an Aquatec for my RO system to boost water pressure. It's a good pump. The one you are looking at is 230 volts - just in case you didn't notice. Doubt it can handle the high temps but might be useful in transferring cool liquids. Might be worth a shot if you can steal it at a low price.
