HIGH CAPACITY
SUBMERSIBLE
TURBINE PUMPS
Available with either 3 or 5 hp, the FE PETRO® high capacity
pump delivers efficient, reliable, and quiet performance when
high volumes or high speed deliveries of gasoline or diesel fuel
are required.
HIGHLIGHTS
High Performance
FE PETRO®’s two-stage centrifugal pump is coupled with a
dependable Franklin Electric motor to provide higher heads,
faster fuel delivery, and lower cost operation. Motors are all
three-phase for smooth operation and are available in various
voltages. Units come standard with a 6" diameter riser pipe to
mount the pump to the tank.
Ease of Maintenance
If service is required, FE PETRO® products are designed to put
the operator back in business fast. Maintenance on the pump
motor assembly can be performed without having an
electrician on-site. Large diameter pins and sockets provide
automatic open circuits and disconnecting of the wiring when
the extractable portion of the pump is removed. Properly
spaced lifting eyes facilitate the removal of the unit without
disturbing the discharge piping. The pump motor assembly is
easily removed from the discharge head by removing four
bolts and using standard pusher bolts. Replacement pump
motor assemblies are available for comparably-sized
competitive pumps.

Reliability
Quality engineering and simplicity of design work to ensure
years of reliable performance from every high capacity unit.
The continuous duty, three-phase Franklin Electric motor with
carbon bearings and stainless steel journals is FE PETRO®’s
standard. The impellers, made of molded acetal, and diffusers
of hard coated aluminum, with a stainless steel pump shaft,
assure trouble-free operation in motor fuels. Dual (180º
opposed) 3" horizontal discharge ports provide easy
installation, and two built-in line check valves reduce
installation costs. Two line pressure relief valves protect the
dispensers, meters, and piping from abnormal pressures due
to thermal expansion. The mesh screen on the pump inlet
prevents large particles from entering the unit and the unit is
compatible with existing high capacity leak detector
technology. New units are easily connected to field wiring
without disassembly.
Satisfaction
Each and every high capacity pump is built to your tank and
bury specifications and the complete assembly is performance
tested to ensure that your needs are met. All high capacity
pumps are UL listed and meet the requirements of UL 79.
