INTRODUCTION
Thank You for purchasing a Gorman‐Rupp 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.
This pump is an 0 Series, enclosed impeller, cen
trifugal model, with straight‐in suction and without
a suction check valve. The basic material of con
struction for wetted parts is ductile iron, with alumi
num impeller. The pump is close‐coupled to an in
tegral 1000 RPM gearbox speed increaser with a
4.09:1 ratio. Power is transmitted to the gearbox
through a customer‐installed universal shaft as
sembly.
Because pump installations are seldom identical,
this manual cannot possibly provide detailed in
structions and precautions for every aspect of
each specific application. Therefore, it is the re
sponsibility of the owner/installer of the pump to
ensure that applications not addressed in this
manual are performed only after establishing that
neither operator safety nor pump integrity are com
promised by the installation. Pumps and related
equipment must be installed and operated ac
cording to all national, local and industry stan
dards.
If there are any questions regarding the pump or
its application which are not covered in this man
ual or in other literature accompanying this unit,
please contact your Gorman‐Rupp distributor, or
