SHURflo Corrosion-Resistant Pedestal
Centrifugal Pumps

Noryl
Series and Polypropylene Series
Refer to form L-4077 for General Operating and Safety Instructions and Applicable Warranty.
Description
SHURflo pedestal non-metallic pumps produce high flow rates under moderate head conditions.
Designed for continuous medium pressure circulation and transfer of nonflammable liquids, water circulation, booster
service, irrigation, spraying systems, jockey pump service, aggressive liquid applications, and other general-purpose pumping
compatible with pump component materials where no suction lift is required. Water seal flush port is provided for the
decontamination of chemicals on the seal and seat elastomers.
• Capacities to 110 GPM, heads to 95 ft.
• 1/3 to 3 HP AC requirement range.
• Discharge can be rotated in 90-degree intervals.
• All pumps have 1

⁄
" female NPT inlet and outlet ports.

• Standard pump models (at 3450 RPM) will handle specific gravities to 1.1 (at 100 SSU or less). For specific gravities to 1.4
(at 100 SSU or less), increase motor HP by one size but not to exceed standard 3 HP motor at 3450 RPM or 65 in.-lbs. of torque
maximum. Higher specific gravity fluids are not recommended.
• Standard pump models (at 3450 RPM) will handle viscosity to 100 SSU (at 1.1 specific gravity or less) and up to 200 SSU
(specific gravity of 1.0 or less). For viscosity up to 400 SSU (specific gravity of 1.0 or less), increase motor HP by one size but not
to exceed standard 3 HP motor at 3450 RPM or 65 in.-lbs. of torque. For fluids with a viscosity greater than 400 SSU, pump
speed must be reduced below 3450 RPM.
• Maximum operating speed is 3600 rpm.
• Pedestal-mount models feature a 5/8" diameter; 316 stainless steel solid shaft; a corrosion-resistant coated cast iron bearing
housing and sealed ball bearings. They may be either long coupled or pulley driven with any base-mounted motor such as
ODP, TEFC or wash-down motors.
CLOSE COUPLED – Non-metallic pumps are also available that feature NEMA 56J frame motors with base.
NORYL SERIES – This series is designed for industrial chemical application. The pumps are made of Noryl, which is non-metallic
and chemical-resistant to most acids, alkalis, and inorganic solvents. This material is stiffer under pressure and temperature than
the Polypropylene Series. Noryl models handle inlet booster pressures to 30 PSI and maximum temperatures up to 180° F. These
pumps are equipped with a unique chemical-resistant, carbon and ceramic mechanical seal with Viton elastomer having the stain-
less steel components sealed in Noryl allowing for a complete non-metallic Noryl wet end. This unique seal guarantees
reliability through simplicity and balance of design. Even the pedestal drive shaft is protected by the seal design.
POLYPROPYLENE SERIES – This series is designed for light industrial or commercial water-based applications. The pumps are
made of non-metallic, glass-filled polypropylene construction offering chemical resistance to most acids, alkalis, and inorganic
solvents as does the Noryl Series. The difference is these pumps are equipped with a carbon ceramic mechanical seal with
Buna-N elastomers with the stainless steel components that are not sealed, but still protect the pedestal shaft from chemical
exposure. The polypropylene series cannot handle added inlet booster pressures and is rated for a maximum temperature of
140° F. However, upgraded chemical-resistant, polypropylene-encased seals are available.
REPAIR SEALS AND OPTIONS – Standard and upgraded seals are available for both the Noryl and Polypropylene pumps.
If abrasive or small, particulated fluids are being pumped, upgrading to either the encased Noryl or polypropylene silicon
carbide mechanical seal with Viton elastomers is recommended. Standard and upgraded seals can be located on the
repair parts list pages in this manual.
PUMP HEADS AND PEDESTAL MOUNT BASE – Complete pump heads and pedestal base can be ordered. Pump head and
pedestal base model numbers are called out in the repair parts list pages in this manual.
Do not use to pump flammable or explosive fluids such as gasoline, fuel oil, kerosene, etc. Do not use in flammable and/or
explosive atmospheres. When pumping hazardous or dangerous materials, use only in room or area designated for that purpose.
For your protection, always wear proper clothing, eye protection, etc. in case of any malfunction. For proper handling techniques and
cautions, contact your chemical supplier, insurance company and local agencies (fire dept., etc.). Failure to comply with this warning could
result in personal injury and/or property damage.
Pumps are not self-priming and cannot suction lift, flooded inlet is required. If inlet is not flooded when the pump is
running, seal failure will result and is not covered under the manufacturer's warranty.
