High Head Centrifugal Pumps
12-Volt DC Models
Refer to pump manual 1808-634-00 for General Operating and Safety Instructions.
DESCRIPTION
These pumps are non self-priming units designed for use where higher heads are needed to handle liquid transfer, heating and cooling applications, where no
suction lift is required. All models feature high-efciency closed impellers with 3450 RPM, 56J frame, 12 VDC motors. The discharge port on all models can
be rotated in 90º increments to accommodate specic applications. Casing working pressure to 150 psi (1034 kPa). These are manual units, no controls are
supplied. Check motor wiring before putting unit into operation (see motor nameplate for specic wiring diagrams). All units are for use with non-ammable, non-
abrasive liquids compatible with pump component materials
CAST IRON UNITS
Pump construction is cast iron casing and adapter. Cast 316
stainless steel impeller. Buna N type 21 mechanical shaft seal with
carbon and ceramic wear faces. O-ring casing seal. Handles liquids
from 40º to 180º F (4º to 82º C).
BRONZE UNITS
Pump construction is cast bronze casing and adapter. Cast 316
stainless steel impeller. Viton type 21 mechanical shaft seal with
carbon and ceramic wear faces. O-ring casing seal. Handles liquids
from 40º to 200º F (4º to 93º C).
316 STAINLESS STEEL UNITS
Pump construction is cast 316 stainless steel casing, adapter,
and impeller. Viton type 21 mechanical shaft seal with carbon and
ceramic wear faces. O-ring casing seal. Handles liquids from 40º to

General Safety
Information for 12 Volt DC Power
1. When connecting power leads, follow this order:
a. Connect POSITIVE or PLUS(+) terminal on motor to supply
lead rst.
b. Connect NEGATIVE or MINUS(-) terminal last.
c. When DISCONNECTING – Disconnect NEGATIVE (-) rst,
then disconnect POSITIVE (+) lead from motor terminal.
2. When attaching line leads to motor or battery/power supply
terminals, be sure that surrounding area is adequately ventilated
to prevent an explosion or re from explosive or ammable
vapors that may be present
Batteries emit hydrogen gas which is explosive. Avoid smoking,
sparks or open ame anywhere in vicinity of battery. Explosion
from battery can cause blindness. Shield eyes when working
near any battery.
Batteries contain sulfuric acid. In case of contact with eyes, skin
or clothing, ush immediately with large amount of water, get
medical attention.
3. When running leads, be sure wire gage is adequately sized and
all electrical connections are properly insulated and enclosed.
Do not add acid or electrolyte to battery being used – add only
water. Consult battery manufacturers for any additional safety
instructions.
4. Motor must be located out of the weather with access to adequate
ventilation for cooling. Motor is not waterproof!
5. All wiring should be performed by a qualied electrician.
Maintenance
Make certain that the unit is disconnected from the power source
before attempting to service or remove any components!
SHAFT SEAL REPLACEMENT
Refer to Figures Nos. 2 and 3.
REMOVAL OF OLD SEAL
IMPORTANT: Always replace both seal seat (Ref. No. 5) and seal
head (Ref. No. 6) to insure proper mating of components! Also,
impeller seal (Ref. No. 9) should be replaced anytime impeller
fastener (Ref. No. 10) has been removed.
1. Remove fasteners (Ref. No. 3) connecting casing (Ref. No. 12)
to adapter (Ref. No. 4).

2. Remove casing.
Care should be taken not to pinch or “shave” casing seal
(Ref. No. 11) between adapter and casing.
3. Use a box and/or socket wrench to remove impeller fastener.
Remove impeller seal and impeller (Ref.No. 8).
NOTE: Motor shaft must be held in place to remove impeller.
Back of the motor either has slot in shaft (use large screwdriver to
hold) or has 2 ats on motor shaft (use 7/16 open end wrench to
hold). Impeller and impeller fastener unscrew CCW when looking
at the front of pump.
IMPORTANT: Care should be taken to ensure that the same
number and thickness of shim washers (ref. No. 7) are replaced
behind the impeller as was removed. Shim washers are located
directly behind impeller and become loose as impeller is removed.
4. The seal head can now be pulled from shaft.
5. Pry seal seat from adapter.
INSTALLATION OF NEW SEAL
The precision lapped faces on mechanical seal are easily
damaged. Handle your repair seal carefully. Do not touch
polished seal faces.
IMPORTANT: Be sure that shaft shoulder does not damage
polished face (see Figure No. 2).
1. Thoroughly clean all surfaces of seal seat cavity in adapter.
2. Using a clean cloth, wipe shaft and shaft sleeve and make
certain that they are perfectly clean.
3. Wet the rubber portion of new seal seat with a light coating
of soapy water. While wearing clean gloves or using a clean
light rag, press seal seat squarely into adapter recess. Use
cardboard washer (usually supplied with new seal), place
over polished surface and use a piece of pipe or dowel rod
to press in rmly but gently. Avoid scratching polished face.
4. Dispose of cardboard washer. Check again to see that
polished face is free of dirt as well as all other foreign particles
and that it has not been scratched or damaged.
5. Wet the inside rubber portion of new seal head with a light
coating of soapy water. Slide head onto motor shaft with
sealing surface facing seal seat (see gure 2).
NOTE: A short “run-in” period may be necessary to provide
completely leak-free operation.
6. Screw impeller onto shaft. Use screwdriver slot at rear of
motor shaft (oposite the threaded end) to tighten impeller.
NOTE: It may be necessary to remove plug in motor end cap to
expose slot. If removed, be sure to reinstall plug AFTER pump is
completely assembled.
7. Check if shaft turns freely by spinning impeller. If rubbing or
binding is found, remove impeller and add a shim to shaft,
then recheck. Repeat procedure until all rubbing is eliminated.
8. Slide impeller seal onto exposed shaft. Screw acorn nut onto
shaft and tighten.
9. Place casing seal on adapter mounting ange. Attach casing using
bolts being careful not to pinch or “shave” casing seal. As casing is
being tightened, periodically spin impeller to check for interference
with casing.
Seal will produce minor drag when spinning motor shaft, but
rubbing anywhere else must be eliminated! Otherwise, damage to
pump and or motor may occur.
