8. Technical data
Supply voltage:
1 x 115 V, + 10 %/- 10 %, 60 Hz.
Motor protection:
The pump requires no external motor protection.
Enclosure class:
Indoor use only, IP42.
CSA Enclosure Type 2.
Insulation class:
F.
Relative air humidity:
Maximum 95 %.
Maximum discharge pressure:
150 psi (10.34 bar).
Inlet pressure:
Sound pressure level:
43 dB (A).
Ambient temperature:
32 °F (0 °C) to 104 °F (40 °C).
Liquid temperature:
36 °F (2 °C) to 230 °F (110 °C).
To avoid condensation in the control box and
stator, the liquid temperature must always be
higher than the ambient temperature.
Maximum glycol concentrations with clean
water:
50 % glycol @ 36 °F (2 °C).
Hydraulic performance change can be expected.
Watt readings:
Accuracy: ± 1 Watt.
Flow indicator:
Provides a relative indication of flow - should not
be used in lieu of a flow meter.
Check valve:
Use of check valve may reduce pump hydraulic
performance (up to -10 %).
Use check valve in parallel pumping
applications.
Curve conditions:
Test liquid: Airless water.
Curves apply to a density of 983.2 kg/m
3
and a
liquid temperature of 140 °F (60 °C).
All curves show average values and should not
be used as guarantee curves. If a specific
minimum performance is required, individual
measurements must be made.
Curves apply to a kinematic viscosity of
0.474 cSt.

Warning
In domestic hot water systems, it is
recommended to keep the liquid
temperature below 149 °F (65 °C) to
eliminate the risk of lime
precipitation.
