Maximum Allowable Motor Power
Do not exceed 7.5 kW (10 horsepower) for 50 Hz, 2900 rpm applications. For 60 Hz, 3450 rpm applications, the pump is capable of
starting a 15 horsepower motor but is limited to a maximum of 13 horsepower (9.7 kW) while running. Use the information in the chart
below to determine the maximum specific gravity capabilities by impeller trim for non-overloading applications. The use of a power
monitor is strongly recommended for 60 Hz applications above 10 horsepower (7.5 kW).
