Features

  • Triplex Uniflow design provides a smooth, low-pulsation flow with strong suction capabilities.
  • Hard chrome-plated 304S cylinders (optional 316SS) and sleeves provide long life with mild liquids within a range of 5-9 PH.
  • Optimal 316 stainless steel manifolds for added strength and corrosion resistance.
  • Optimal FPM elastomers for liquid compatibility.
  • Patented stepped piston rod with stainless steel sleeves provides a durable wear surface and easy wet-end servicing.
  • Cylinder and sleeve wear surfaces are hard chrome-plated 304 stainless steel for longer service life.
  • Manifolds are of high tensile strength chrome-plated brass or 316 stainless steel for special corrosion resistance.
  • 100% wet cup/seal design adds to service life by allowing pumped liquids to cool and lubricate the elastomers on both sides.
  • 304 stainless steel valves, seats, and springs provide corrosion-resistance, ultimate seating and extended life.
  • Mechanically actuated inlet valves provide strong lift and easy prime.

Operating Limits

  • Liquid pH Range (for 304S cylinders): 5-9 PH
  • Maximum Liquid Temperature: 160°F (71°C)
  • Inlet Pressure Range: –8.5 to +40 psi (–0.6 to +2.8 bar)

Electrical

The required horsepower (H.P.) can be determined by the formula: (gpm x psi) / 1460. The document also provides a table for "ELECTRIC HORSEPOWER REQUIREMENTS" based on flow and pressure. See the official PDF for exact tabulated values.

Mechanical / Hydraulic

  • Piston Bore:
    • Models 6020, 6021: 2.205" (56 mm)
    • Models 6040, 6041: 1.811" (46 mm)
  • Stroke: 2.461" (62.5 mm)
  • Shaft Diameter: 1.772" (45 mm)
  • Inlet Port: 2" NPTF
  • Discharge Ports: (3) 1-1/4" NPTF
  • Pulley Mounting: Either Side

Materials of Construction (Selected Components)

  • Cylinders: Hard chrome-plated 304S (optional 316SS), or unchromed 304SS.
  • Sleeves: Hard chrome-plated 304SS (optional 316SS), or unchromed 304SS.
  • Manifolds: Chrome-plated brass or 316 stainless steel (optional).
  • Valves, Seats, Springs: 304 stainless steel.
  • Elastomers: FPM (Fluorocarbon), NBR (Medium Nitrile/Buna-N), PTFE (Pure Polytetrafluoroethylene).

Important Notes

  • All High Pressure Systems require a primary pressure regulating device (e.g., regulator, unloader) and a secondary pressure relief device (e.g., pop-off valve, relief valve). Failure to install such relief devices could result in personal injury or damage to pump or property.
  • C.A.T. (Captive Acceleration Tube) is highly recommended for pressurized inlet, R.O. (Reverse Osmosis), and Industrial applications.
