INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
Thank You for purchasing a Gorman-Rupp Hy-
draulic Submersible 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.
A set of manuals accompanies your pump. Each
set consists of three parts; the Installation/Opera-
tion Manual contains essential information on in-
stalling and operating the pump. However, since
pump installations are seldom identical, some of
the information only summarizes general recom-
mendations and practices required to inspect, po-
sition, and arrange the pump and piping.
The Parts List Manual provides a performance
curve, pump model cross-section drawing, and
parts list for your pump.
The Maintenance and Repair Manual provides
troubleshooting and maintenance instructions re-
quired to properly diagnose operational problems,
and to service the pump components.
The pump is a hydraulic motor-driven submersible
model, capable of handling liquids that may be vol-
atile or flammable, and which could cause serious
illness or injury through direct exposure or emitted
fumes.
The pump is designed to be driven only by an
open-center type hydraulic power source with
flows and pressures not exceeding the nominal
specifications shown for your pump in Table 1,
Section B. Do not use closed-center valves or
operate the pump at higher flows or pressures.
Closed-center valves or operation at higher flows
or pressures will damage the pump motor and/or
seal, and void the pump warranty. Consult the
factory for additional information concerning the
appropriate hydraulic power source.
If there are any questions regarding the pump
which are not covered in this manual or in other lit-
erature accompanying the unit, please contact
your Gorman-Rupp distributor or the Gorman-
Rupp Company:
