    SEAL HOUSING: The NPO seal housing is the same as that used for the NPE. It is made of 316L stainless and fea- tures a series of formed barriers designed to keep the liquid circulating and reduce the chance of heat build up in the seal area.

    NPO PRODUCT LINE NUMBERING SYSTEM The various versions of the NPO are identified by a product code number on the pump label. This number is also the catalog number for the pump. The meaning of each digit in the product code number is shown below.

    Goulds Water Technology Commercial Water COMPONENTS AND MATERIALS OF CONSTRUCTION GENERAL DESCRIPTION: 316 stainless steel end-suction centrifugal pump with semi-open impeller. Performance from 10-250 GPM with 20-110 feet TDH. Maximum working pressure is 125 PSIG (9 bars). Standard liquid tempera- tures to 212º...
  • Page 11: Performance

    The NPO performance is very dependant on the clearance between the impeller and casing face plate. The curves show the worst case performance with NPO motors. Individual pumps may produce up to 5 feet of additional TDH. Use of other motors may result in lower performance. Contact Goulds Water Technology customer service for help in selecting a pump for a specific OEM application.

    Technology Applications Engineering can help you in working with OEM prospects. Evaluation of the entire OEM system should be done before recommending a specific model. The following S.I.C. numbers can be used to help you locate NPO prospects. Use these with either your Goulds Water Technology database or local industrial directory.
  • Page 16: Chemical Companies

    Commercial Water DISHWASHER MARKET The Dishwasher Market for the NPO is composed of those companies which manufacture commercial dishwash- ers for use in restaurants, bars and cafeterias in various types of institutions. This is not the same as the residential dishwasher market, which uses considerably smaller pumps.
  • Page 17: Typical Dishwasher Design

    Some manufacturers have put in plated or stainless impellers to try to improve pump life, but until now, the cost of a completely stainless pump was much too high to justify in this application. The NPO is the first completely stainless pump to meet the performance and solids handling need and still be within the general cost range of cast iron bronze fitted pumps.
  • Page 18: Commercial Laundry

    Pot and pan washers and glass washers also fall into this market area. Pot washers may demand a higher pressure than the NPO can provide, but they are good prospects for an SSH. Glass washers are becoming more popular as an appliance for bars due to the increase in sanitary regulations.
  • Page 19: Parts Washers

    Although the durability of stainless steel is an advantage in the detergent environment of a parts washer, the stan- dard pump is typically cast iron due to traditional stainless costs. The NPO in stainless steel increases pump life, matches the materials commonly used for the rest of the unit and eliminates the chance of rust contaminants in the system.
  • Page 20: Machine Tool Coolant

    This recirculation often brings excess chips or filing into the pump. The 316 cast open impeller of the NPO can easily handle these particles with very little chance of damage or wear.
  • Page 21: Competition

    Parts Washer and Machine Tool These two segments are currently served by our NPE, SSH and SSV products. The primary benefit of the NPO will be in applications where the liquid is not well filtered and the pump must handle particles and small solids. Since most of the competitive products are not open impeller designs, they are less forgiving in these situations.
  • Page 22: Installation Procedures

    Goulds Water Technology Commercial Water INSTALLATION PROCEDURES 1.0 IMPORTANT 1.1 Inspect unit for damage. Report any damage to carrier/dealer immediately. 1.2 Electrical supply must be a separate branch circuit with fuses or circuit breakers, wire sizes, etc., per National and Local electrical codes. Install an all-leg disconnect switch near pump.
  • Page 23 Goulds Water Technology Commercial Water INSTALLATION PROCEDURES 2.1.7 Foundation must be flat and substantial to eliminate strain when tightening bolts. Use rubber mounts to minimize noise and vibration. 2.1.8 Tighten motor hold down bolts before connecting piping to plumbing. 3.0 SUCTION PIPING 3.1 Low static suction lift and short, direct suction piping is desired.
  • Page 24: Service And Maintenance Procedures

    6.2 Make complete check after unit is run under operating conditions and temperature has stabilized. Check for expansion of piping. 7.0 MAINTENANCE 7.1 On the close-coupled NPO unit, bearings are located in and are a part of the motor. They are permanently lubricated and no greasing is required. 8.0 DISASSEMBLY Complete disassembly of the unit will be described.
  • Page 25 Goulds Water Technology Commercial Water INSTALLATION PROCEDURES 8.4 Disassembly of liquid end 8.4.1 Remove casing bolts. 8.4.2 Remove back pullout assembly from casing. 8.4.3 Remove cap at opposite end of motor. A screwdriver slot or a pair of flats will be exposed. Use screwdriver or vise grips to stop shaft rotation.
