3 AND 5 HP 50HZ
SUBMERSIBLE
TURBINE PUMPS
Available with either 3 or 5 hp, the FE PETRO® high capacity
pump delivers efficient, reliable and quiet performance when
high volumes or high speed deliveries of gasoline or diesel
fuel are required.
HIGHLIGHTS
High Performance
FE PETRO®’s multi-stage centrifugal pump is coupled with a
dependable Franklin Electric motor to provide higher heads,
faster fuel delivery and lower cost operation. Motors are all
three-phase for smooth operation and are available in various
voltages. Units come standard with a 6" diameter riser pipe
to mount the pump to the tank.
Ease of Maintenance
If service is required, FE PETRO® products are designed to
put the operator back in business fast. Maintenance on the
pump motor assembly can be performed without having an
electrician on site. Large diameter pins and sockets provide
automatic open circuits and disconnecting of the wiring
when the extractable portion of the pump is removed.
Properly spaced lifting eyes facilitate the removal of the unit
without disturbing the discharge piping. The pump motor
assembly is easily removed from the discharge head by
removing four bolts and using standard pusher bolts.
Replacement pump motor assemblies are available for
comparably sized competitive pumps.
Reliability
Quality engineering and simplicity of design work to ensure
years of reliable performance from every high capacity unit.
The continuous duty, three-phase Franklin Electric motor
with carbon bearings and stainless steel journals is FE
PETRO®’s standard. The impellers, made of moulded acetal,
and diffusers of hard coated aluminium, with a stainless steel
pump shaft, assure trouble-free operation in motor fuels.
Dual (180º opposed) 3" horizontal discharge ports provide
easy installation, and two built-in line check valves reduce
installation costs. Two line pressure relief valves protect the
dispensers, meters and piping from abnormal pressures due
to thermal expansion. The mesh screen on the pump inlet
prevents large particles from entering the unit and the unit is
compatible with existing high capacity leak detector
technology. New units are easily connected to field wiring
without disassembly.
Satisfaction
Each and every high capacity pump is built to your tank
and bury specifications and the complete assembly is
performance tested to ensure that your needs are met.
All high capacity pumps are UL listed and meet the
requirements of UL 79.
