1.1 General description 1. General description
The Series S pump supplied is a positive displacement rotary
lobe pump; it may be supplied with or without a drive unit
(see drawing). The drawing shown indicates various parts of
the pump unit.
The Series S range has a universal gearbox design in series
S1 - 4. This enables the flexibility of mounting pumps with the
inlet and outlet ports in either a vertical or horizontal plane.
The port orientation, vertical or horizontal, may be changed by
moving one of two available bolt-on feet on the gearbox. Port
orientation should be specified when ordering, but the
alternative foot design allows pumps that are already installed
being changed should the need arise.
Series S5 & 6 pumps can also have the inlet and outlet ports
in either horizontal or vertical plane. This is achieved by the
use of dedicated gearbox castings having either horizontal or
vertical shaft arrangements.

Noise levels
Under certain operating conditions pumps and/or drives and/or the systems within which they are installed can produce sound
pressure levels in excess of 85dB[A]. When necessary, protection against noise should be taken.
Drawing shows only mounted unit
Pump duty conditions
The pump should only be used for the duty for which it has been specified. The operating pressure, speed and temperature
limits have been selected at the time of order and MUST NOT be exceeded. These details are stated on the original order
documentation and if not available may be obtained from your supplier quoting pump model and serial number.
External Cleaning
Use cleaning fluids below PH 8. Cleaning fluids above PH 8 may cause some paint discolouration.
