DESCRIPTION
Self-priming to 20 ft., corrosion-resistant centrifugal pumps
are for use in commercial irrigation, water transfer, draining,
and general de-watering applications. Specially fitted to be
resistant to brine or salt water. Pumps from ponds, cisterns,
or well points, maximum suction lift 20 ft. Discharge can be
divided to supply 2 or more systems. 1 and 1-1/2 HP models
have dual voltage motors for 115/230 volt operation.
Discharge pressures range from 10 to 45 psi, flow rates
from 8 to 67 GPM.
For use with non-flammable liquids compatible with pump
component materials.

Electrical Safety
Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn, or
cause death.
Ground pump before connecting to power
supply. Disconnect power before working on pump, motor,
or tank.
Wire motor for correct voltage. See “Electrical” section
of this manual, motor nameplate, and diagram inside motor
junction box cover.
Ground motor before connecting to power supply.
Meet United States National Electrical Code, Canadian
Electrical Code, and local codes for all wiring.
Follow wiring instructions in this manual and in motor
junction box when connecting motor to power lines.
General Safety
Hazardous pressure!
Do not run pump
against closed discharge. Release all pressure on system
before working on any component.
Do not touch an operating motor. Modern
motors are designed to operate at high temperatures. To
avoid burns when servicing pump, allow it to cool for 20
minutes after shut-down before handling.
To avoid heat build-up, over-pressure hazard and possible
injury, do not use in a domestic water system. Do not use as
a booster pump; pressurized suction may cause pump body
to explode.
Never
run pump above recommended pressure
shown on the performance chart.
Do not allow pump or any system component to freeze.
Freezing pump will void warranty.
Pump should only be used to pump liquids compatible with
pump component materials.
Periodically inspect pump and system components.
Keep work area clean, uncluttered, and properly lighted;
properly store all unused tools and equipment.
Keep visitors at a safe distance from the work areas.
Make workshop childproof with padlocks, master switches,
and by removing starter keys.
Know the pump application, limitations, and potential hazards.
