INTRODUCTION
Thank You for purchasing a Gorman-Rupp pump.
Read this manual carefully to learn how to safely
install and operate your pump. Failure to do so
could result in personal injury or damage to the
pump.
This Installation, Operation, and Maintenance
manual is designed to help you achieve the best
performance and longest life from your Gorman-
Rupp pump.
This is a D Series, positive displacement pump,
utilizing a single-action diaphragm to produce a
straight-through flow of liquid. The pump is flex-
coupled to a 3/4 HP explosion-proof electric motor.
It is ideally suited to industrial and contractor’s ap-
plications since it will handle liquids ranging from
clear water to construction-site muck. Since it is
driven by an explosion-proof motor, the pump may
be operated in a hazardous-duty environment; the
pump is not, however, designed to handle volatile,
flammable or corrosive liquids. The basic material
of construction for wetted parts is aluminum, with
neoprene flap valves and diaphragm.
If there are any questions regarding the pump or
its application which are not covered in this man-
ual or in other literature accompanying this unit,
please contact your Gorman-Rupp distributor, or:
