  • Complete unit is lightweight, portable and easy to service
  • Stainless steel fasteners

The STS pumps also a SJE Rhombus float switch, an extra long 20-foot power cord with NEMA 5-12P plug, and ceramic/silicon carbide mechanical seal faces with BUNA elastomers that protect the motor.

Other specifications are:
  • Discharge size: 1 1⁄2" NPT
  • Capacities: to 38 GPM
  • Maximum head: 25 feet TDH
  • Max. solids: 3⁄16" spherical
  • Temperature: 95º F (35º C) maximum liquid temperature
  • Single phase, 3450 RPM, 60 Hz
