GENERAL INFORMATION
The Multiquip Model ST41230/ST41460 and ST61230/
ST61460 submersible pumps are designed to pump
water. These pumps work best when faced with high head
applications where you need an appreciable flow.
The pumping of flammable, toxic, corrosive, abrasive liquids
is strictly forbidden. These pumps are best suited for clear
water applications where maximum size of solids (debris)
does not exceed 0.6-inches (15.2 mm).
These pumps have a chrome steel body that is very durable
and able to withstand rough handling. The ST41230/
ST41460 comes with a 4-inch NPT threads for standard
hose connections, while the ST61230/ST61460 comes
with a 6-inch NPT threads for standard hose connections.
The mechanical seal of these pumps operates within an
oil-filled chamber that provides positive lubrication. This
helps prevent damage in the event the pump is run dry for
short periods of time.
For unattended pump operation control boxes are available.
Reference Table 4 for the correct control box for your pump.
Before applying power to the pump always read the
nameplate on the pump. The nameplate will display the
voltage and phase required to run the pump. Applying
the incorrect voltage to the pump can severly damage the
pump.
Please make sure that the correct voltage and phase are
applied to the pump at all times.
