Nomenclature and Data Sheet
All QTS pumps have a model number which can be understood by the use of a nomenclature.
The model number includes ports size, seals, and rotor type. It can be found printed on top of
the pump bearing case and in the selection report. The selection report describes the pump
operating conditions for a specific application. Operating the pump in conditions different
than selected can void the warranty. If the application changes please contact a distributor or
Q-Pumps before operation.
