FBC Series Close-Coupled Centrifugal Pump

Franklin Electric’s new FBC Series Single-Stage Horizontal close-coupled centrifugal pump is offered in 1-1/2 and 2 hp versions that pump at 40 to 200 gpm at heads up to 130 feet. The rugged pumping line of this close-coupled centrifugal pump features standard 316 stainless steel impellers that can handle a variety of fluids, including those with small abrasives and hydrocarbons. It’s Fluoroelastomer (FKM) silicon carbide seal provides additional protection against heat and abrasives, and a non-overloading design protects against field challenges such as power dips, pipe breaks, improper application setup, and more.
