Cooling:
The motor housing contains a cooling oil to provide
cooling for the motor and to lubricate bearings and
seals. These pumps are capable of operating with the
motor housing partially exposed for extended periods
of time, providing sufficient motor cooling and bearing
lubrication, however, for the best cooling and longest
motor life, the liquid being pumped should normally
be above the top of the cast iron motor housing.
