The Series PL pumps are highly reliable, in-line cast iron close-coupled booster pumps specially designed for use in hydronic, radiant, and geothermal heating and cooling systems. These pumps are equipped with a maintenance-free system, incorporating a self-cleaning particle shield that safeguards the shaft and bearings from potential debris during system start-up. Notably, the XL11 precision-crafted bearing system further enhances trouble-free start-ups.
One of the key advantages of the Series PL pump lies in its powerful, dry-motor design, delivering a remarkable 25% higher efficiency compared to competitor models. Unlike wet rotor pumps, the Series PL operates without requiring system water to circulate through the motor for lubrication and cooling purposes. This innovative feature significantly contributes to the pump's longevity and efficiency.
The Series PL pump boasts an advanced close-coupled design, which not only extends its lifespan but also enhances its overall operating efficiency. The impeller, constructed from stabilized heat-resistant non-metallic material and featuring a closed design, further improves the pump's efficiency during operation.
An exceptional aspect of the Series PL is its ability to handle challenging water conditions and a wide range of temperatures, setting it apart from larger wet rotor circulators offering similar performance. Additionally, the pump comes with all necessary mounting hardware and flange gaskets, with the option to acquire separate union connections in 3/4" NPT, 1/2", and 3/4" sweat sizes.
