DESIGN FEATURES
CASING Constructed as ASTM A48 class 30 cast iron. Back pull out design allows the
pump to be served without disturbing the piping. 1/4 npt suction guage and 1/8
npt drain tappings are standard. Self venting design prevents air binding within the
pump. After initial priming the pump never needs to be primed again.
MECHANICAL SEAL Type 21 buna-n seal is rated to 225°F and pressures to 175PSI. Carbon seal face
mates with the ceramic seat providing years of trouble free service. Alternate seals
available upon request.
IMPELLER The hydraulic design of the impeller maximizes pressure and gpm while minimiz-
ing horsepower. The enclosed impeller is made of cast bronze.
ADAPTER The precise machining of the adapter allows for easy assembly of the pump. Con-
struction consists of ASTM A48 class 30 cast iron.
MOTOR The NEMA 56J motor utilizes a 416 stainless steel shaft. The motors heavy duty
ball bearings withstand axial and radial thrust loads with no problem. Standard
enclosure type is dripproof but alternates are available.
