Material: 316 Stainless Steel
Size: 1.5 FNPT x .5 FNPT
(Tangential Discharge)
Features
  1. ANSI group I oil lube bearing pedestal with vented oil-level gauge.
  2. Single, internal mechanical seal, 1-1/8" (carbon vs. silicon carbide mating faces, viton elastomers and 316 S/S metal parts).
  3. Motor is Wash-Down Duty 3 HP, 3450 RPM, TEFC, 145T frame.
  4. Small discharge (1/2 FNPT) and narrow (1/4" wide) vanes enclosed impeller provide steeply rising curve and smooth operation at low flow conditions.
