Terminology affecting pumps:

The size of liquid ends found on our site is 4" diameter, with a designed number of impellers of the correct configuration to achieve a given gpm and total dynamic head (in feet)

As you work with the part numbers on our site, you will see how the number system describes the liquid ends offered. You will also find the logic in our motor numbers as well.

Liquid end example:

a 4" liquid end that is a 3/4hp, 7 gallon series, with 13 stages (impellers) would be a 0713-07 ("0713" = 7gallon, 13stages, "07" = 3/4hp)

Horsepower codes - 1/2hp = 05, 3/4hp = 07, 1hp = 10, 11/2hp = 15, 2hp = 20, 3hp = 30, 5hp = 50, 71/2hp = 75, 10hp = 100

Motor example:  

a 3/4hp, 4" motor that is 230volts and single phase and runs on 3wires would be a 34M4213 ("34M" = 3/4hp motor, "4" = 4" diameter, "2" = 230 volts, "1" = single phase, "3" = 3 wires)

motor horsepower codes - 1/2hp = 12, 3/4hp = 34, 1hp = 1, 2hp = 2, 3hp = 3, 5hp = 5, 71/2hp = 712, 10hp = 10  

Terminology affecting control boxes:

Note:

Economy models have only a starting capacitor, & no running capacitor (capacitor start, induction run)

Deluxe models have starting & running capacitors (capacitor start, capacitor run)

Super Deluxe models have starting & running capacitors along with a magnetic starter relay

Clarification of terminology concerning control boxes:

What Franklin calls it:               What we call it:

"QD" or "Quick Disconnect" Box.....Economy Box
"Standard" Box...................................Deluxe Box
"Deluxe" Box......................................Super Deluxe Box

Control Box part number example:

a 3/4hp economy control box for a 4" motor, 230 volt (single phase is assumed) is 34ECB42 ("34" = 3/4 hp, "ECB" = economy conrol box, "4" = for 4" motor, "2" = 230 volt. Control boxes are only used with single phase 3-wire motors so the part number does not need to point to the phase or number of wires) 

ECB = Economy Control Box
DCB = Deluxe Control Box
SDCB = Super Deluxe Control Box
