III. Product Description
Description
This section provides a general description of the Goulds Model GSP and key
engineering specifications.
Overview
The Goulds model GSP pumps are single stage, end suction, centrifugal pumps designed
to meet the rigorous standards of hygiene needed by the food and beverage industries. Pumps are used in the food industry as process or clean in place pumps.
The GSP series meets 3A Sanitary Standards for Centrifugal and Positive Rotary Pumps, Number 02-10 and 3A Sanitary Standard for Machine Leveling Feet and Supports, Number 88-00 for both internal and external hygienic design. This enables operators to insure the purity of their process and the cleanliness of their plant to meet both local and national health and safety regulations. Not all products marked 3A meet these design and clean-ability standards.
Mechanical seals are FDA approved and several versions of the pump have EHEDG
European sanitary certification.
Pump impellers are fully open, and either threaded or key driven and held in position
by an impeller bolt and o-ring. Impeller hubs are extended through the seal and backplate eliminating the need for shaft sleeves.
Casings are full volute in design. 316 Stainless parts and welds are polished to Ra<0.8 um.
Suction and discharge connections are Tri-clamp sanitary flange type.
Close-coupled units have NEMA standard JM motors with C-face mounting and key
driven shaft extension or for smaller pumps, NEMA standard 56J motors with threaded shafts. Pumps are available with standard ODP or TEFC motors with shrouds and pump stands or wash down enclosures. These are provided for hygienic cleaning of the pump and its surroundings.

Engineering Data
Noise level
The noise generated by a pump depends on different factors. Most important are: power, speed and brand name of the motor, whether there is cavitation or not, operating point of the pump, and handling of small quantities of air. A guide value for the sound pressure
level measured in dB(A) at a distance of 3 feet from the pump with a 2 pole motor operating at 60 Hz in ideal circumstances with cold water is 78 dB(A) for pumps up to 5 hp, 83 to 85 dB(A) for pumps with motors ranging from 7.5 to 50 hp. For pumps with 4 or 6 pole motors, the value can be decreased with +/- 8 dB(A).
Maximum Liquid Temperature:
250ºF (120ºC)
Note: Pump and piping should be protected from skin contact if temperature is less than 10ºC or higher than 40ºC
Maximum Working Pressure (Fluid temperature dependant):
S1 – 125 PSIG (9 Bar); S2 – 150 PSIG (10.5 Bar)
Maximum Suction Pressure:
=125 PSIG/150 PSIG – Pump generated pressure (see performance curve)
Starts per hour:
20 evenly distributed with standard across the line start Unlimited with soft starter or drive
