The unit is configured with ANSI Class 125 flanges and includes pressure tappings on the suction and discharge connections.
The unit operates at 1750 RPM and is powered by a 5 HP Baldor motor with an ODP enclosure, configured for a 200V, 60Hz, 3PH power supply. The motor uses a NEMA 184 T-frame and meets NEMA premium efficiency standards. This pump features AEGIS shaft grounding and across-the-line starting. It is mounted on a welded base that incorporates a drip pan and is connected to the motor through a Woods coupler with a protective guard. The assembly is rated for a 40 °C ambient temperature and maintains a DOE PEI value of 0.91.
