INTRODUCTION
Warning levels applying to the safe installation, operation and maintenance of all
sizes of WSP™ Self-Primer (WSP) pumps can be located at the beginning of this
manual. You must refer to the manual accompanying your power source before
attempting to begin operation since Weir Specialty Pumps has no control over or
special knowledge of the power source to which you will connect these pumps.
You have made a wise decision in your purchase of a WSP™ Self-Primer (WSP)
pump, and we thank you for your business. To learn how to install and operate your
pump safely, read this manual carefully. Failure to follow the enclosed instructions
may result in damage to the pump or personal injury. The
WSP™ Self-Primer Pump
Installation, Operation, and Maintenance
manual was created to help you maximize
the pump’s performance while achieving the longest life possible.
Your pump is a centrifugal, self-priming model featuring a semi-open impeller and
suction check valve. The pump is designed with external shimless adjusters for
setting the wear plate to impeller clearance. It pumps liquids containing large,
entrained solids as well as slurries. Its basic material is ductile iron with a cast steel
impeller and a steel wearplate.
For questions about the pump or its application not covered in this manual or other
