SAFETY
The Fill-Rite Series 700B UL listed remote pumps are positive
displacement, direct drive, rotary vane pumps. Depending on
installation and product viscosity, these pumps can deliver up
to 18 gallons of fluid per minute. Their rugged, yet lightweight
design makes for a long life of trouble free operation.
The Fill-Rite Series 300 UL listed pumps are positive
displacement, direct drive, rotary vane pumps. Depending on
installation and product viscosity, these pumps can deliver up
to 30 gallons/114 liters of fluid per minute. Their high quality,
trouble free design makes them a reliable, long life, high
capacity pump.
The safety of Fill-Rite Series 700B and 300 pumps is proven
by their listing with
Underwriters Laboratories Inc., a nationally
recognized independent organization for
testing of products to ensure public safety. Also
recognized in Canada.
Model FR713 Design Features:
•Inlet: 2" male NPT on bung, 1¼" female NPT on suction
pipe
•Outlet: ¾" NPT
•Built in check valve, bypass and pressure relief valves.
(Anti-siphon device prevents thermal expansion pressure
buildup.)
CAUTION: DO NOT INSTALL ADDITIONAL FOOT
VALVE OR CHECK VALVE DURING INSTALLATION
WITHOUT PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE. HOUSING
OR PLUMBING CRACKING MAY RESULT.
•Overall Dimensions: 14" (35.6cm) wide x 11" (28cm) high x
12" (30.5cm) deep
•Explosion proof motor
•1/3 HP 115 VAC-60Hz motor, 1725 RPM, 5.5 amps at 115 VAC
•Thermal overload protection
•Ball bearing construction; no greasing or oiling required
Model FR713 Performance:
•22 psi (1.52 bar) maximum outlet pressure
•Maximum flow rate: up to 18 GPM (68 LPM)
•Maximum viscosity of fluid pumped: diesel fuel
•Maximum operating ambient temperature: 150°F (65.6°C)
•Minimum operating ambient temperature: -15°F (-27°C)
(Consult factory for extreme temperature applications)
•Minimum dry vacuum: 12" (30.5cm) of mercury
•Minimum suction lift: 10' (3m) for gas & 15' (4.5m) for diesel
fuel. The lift in feet is equivalent to the vertical distance from
the surface of the fluid in the tank to the inlet of the
pump, PLUS the friction losses through the vertical and
horizontal runs of pipe, all elbows and other fittings.
Systems should be designed to require a minimum
amount of suction lift.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION
To ensure safe and efficient operation, it is essential to
read and follow each of these warnings and
precautions.
1. To prevent damage to FR713 pump, do not operate
without the check valve (700F2661) or the check
valve substitute (700F2679) in place.
2. Do NOT smoke near pump or use pump near an open
flame. Fire could result.
3. Take motors needing service to an authorized
repair shop or return to factory to maintain
“explosion proof” integrity.
4. These pumps must be used with remote
dispensers and are not intended for any other
applications.
5. The pump motor is equipped with thermal overload
protection. If overheated, it will shut itself off without
any damage to the windings. Be sure to turn off the
pump power if this occurs. As the motor cools, it will
start without warning if power is on.
DANGER
Electrical wiring should be
done by a licensed electri-
cian in accordance with ap-
proved electrical codes.
Pump should be properly
grounded and a rigid conduit
should be used when install-
ing electrical wiring. Im-
proper use or installation of
this product can cause seri-
ous bodily injury or death.
