It is constructed with a cast iron casing, a 7-1/4" nominal diameter bronze impeller, and a bronze wear ring. The unit utilizes a stainless steel shaft equipped with a replaceable bronze shaft sleeve and a dry shaft design to prevent fluid contact. The mechanical seal consists of a ceramic seat, carbon rotor, and EPT rubber, rated for operation at temperatures up to 250°F. Pressure tappings are provided on both the suction and discharge connections.
This pump operates at 1150 RPM and is powered by a 1 HP Baldor motor with an ODP enclosure and a 145T NEMA frame. The electrical configuration is 230-460V/60Hz/3PH with a 40°C ambient temperature rating. The motor meets Premium Efficiency standards and includes AEGIS shaft grounding. The assembly is mounted on a welded steel base that incorporates a drip pan and an OSHA-compliant coupler guard. A Woods coupling connects the pump to the motor, which utilizes greasable bearings within the bearing frame.
