AMT Pump 429A-98 Self-Priming Centrifugal Pump Stainless Steel 1/2 HP 1 Phase 115/230V Curve A 1" NPT Female Suction & Discharge

AMT Pump 429A-98 Self-Priming Centrifugal Pump Stainless Steel 1/2 HP 1 Phase 115/230V Curve A 1" NPT Female Suction & Discharge Ports - This AMT self-priming centrifugal pump has a stainless steel housing and 1" female NPT suction and discharge ports. The pump is self-priming to 6 vertical feet (after initial fill) with its built-in check valve and its clog-resistant impeller handles semi-solids up to 3/8" diameter. The pump housing has Viton (FKM fluoroelastomer) mechanical seal and O-ring a fill and drain plug for easy servicing and a double volute chamber for reduced radial load on the impeller. The motor enclosure is either TEFC (totally enclosed fan cooled) for protection from dust and indirect water spray or ODP (open drip proof) for protection from dripping water depending on the model and complies with National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) 56J standard for mounting dimensions. This portable pump is suitable for use in applications such as transfer of non-flammable liquids and chemicals with specific gravities up to 1.6.SpecificationsMotor0.33 to 1 hp ODP or TEFCPumpCentrifugal self-priming with dual voluteMaximum flow rateRanges from 33 to 66 gpmImpellerStainless steel self-cleaning semi-openSuction port1" NPTDischarge port1" NPTMaximum operating temperature200 degrees FMaximum liquid specific gravity1.6Standards metNEMA 56JPumps use mechanical action to move liquids gases or slurries (solids suspended in a liquid or gas). The mechanical action is categorized as either positive displacement (PD) or kinetic. PD pumps capture and release discrete amounts of flow into a chamber and then force it out. Some examples of PD pumps are fuel and oil pumps in cars pumps in hydraulic systems and bicycle pumps. Kinetic pumps move liquids gases or slurries by transferring energy from the pump's movement to the flow. They use an impeller to draw the flow in add energy to the flow and move it through a volute (a spiral funnel through which the fl
