HOW TO SELECT THE RIGHT PUMP

  PUMP IDENTIFICATION NUMBER SELECTION GUIDE
 
All ECO pump identification plates include the basic model number. These numbers fully describe the pump and seal specifications necessary for the future identification of your pump, and the replacement of parts or equipment, as needed.

Look at the sample model number (to the right) to see what information these numbers contain.

Note: Be sure to provide complete nameplate data when you order spare parts or replacement pumps.
 
 

NOTES:

  1. Max differential pressure allowed for plastic/plastic gears is 50 PSI

  2. Pumps with metallic drive & idler gears require minimum viscosity of 100 cps & are limited to 1440 RPM maximum speed for G2-Gh8 pumps and 1150 RPM for GA12-16 pumps.

  3. Ceramic wear plates with metallic gears require minimum viscosity of 100 cps.

  4. Viton U-Cup lip seals are limited to 25 psi.

  5. Not all mechanical seals available in all metallurgies.

  6. Double mechanical seals must be pressurized with seal fluid 15 to 20 PSIG above the pump discharge pressure.
