When installing or servicing the pump
or controls, follow all requirements for
the installation of wiring or electrical
equipment as outlined in the National
Electric Code. Follow all safety require-
ments. Failure to observe these require-
ments could result in injury or death to
personnel.
NOTE
Refer to the performance curve in Section E, Main-
tenance and Repair when determining the most
efficient piping installation. The recommended
maximum submergence depth is 23 feet. Great-
er depths could result in damage to the pump
Pump Dimensions
For the approximate physical dimensions of your
pump, refer to the pump specification data sheet
or contact your Gorman-Rupp distributor or the
Gorman-Rupp Company.
Lifting
Pump unit weights will vary depending on the
mounting and drive provided. Check the shipping
tag on the unit packaging for the actual weight, and
use lifting equipment with appropriate capacity.
Drain the pump and remove all customer-installed
equipment such as suction and discharge hoses
or piping before attempting to lift existing, installed
units.
Do not attempt to lift the pump by the
motor power cable or the piping. Attach
proper lifting equipment or a rope to the
lifting device fitted to the pump.
Positioning the Pump
The pump is designed to operate fully or partially
submerged. The rotating parts are oil lubricated,
and the motor is cooled by a constant flow of liquid
or air discharged through internal passages.
The pump will operate if positioned on its side, but
this is not recommended because the motor
torque could cause the pump to roll during opera-
tion.
