1 1/2 HP FIXED SPEED
SUBMERSIBLE
TURBINE PUMPS
Marketers concerned about fuelling times, efficiency, serviceability, reliability, and overall quality find it an easy choice
to specify FE PETRO® brand submersible turbine pumps
(STPs). An STP has to be reliable, it has to be safe, and it has
to perform. That's why thousands of station owners around
the world have trusted FE PETRO® STPs and the Franklin
Electric motors that drive them to keep their business flowing
for over 30 years. With best-in-class flow rates and backed
by a long history of dependability FE PETRO® STPs simply do
their job without fail, delivering fuel to customers day after
day without a hitch.
HIGHLIGHTS
Active Air Eliminator
FE PETRO® brand STPs come standard with active air
elimination, which eliminates air through the highest point in
the pump head at all times when the pump is running,
assuring air does not pass into discharge piping.
Safety and Ease of Maintenance
FE PETRO® brand STPs include a contractor electrical
disconnect, which requires loosening only one bolt, allowing
motor wiring to be disconnected without venting the
dangerous tank vapours into the sump when servicing FE
PETRO® submersible products.
Manual Pressure Relief
As a standard FE PETRO® feature a vent screw is provided to
bleed line pressure to zero when necessary. By turning this
screw, product is diverted back to the tank, dropping line
pressure to zero. This reduces fuel discharged into the sump
manhole or dispenser pan during servicing, further
protecting service technicians and the environment.
Simple Servicing
If ever required, the pump can be easily removed from the
tank by unthreading three bolts. There is no need to
disconnect the syphon system or to remove the leak detector
from the system to service the STP.

Variable Length
The VL2 pump fits 94% of all known tank diameters and tank
bury depth combinations. The VL1 and VL3 are available to
handle installations shorter or longer than this range. The
telescoping connection is a patented FE PETRO® feature.
Pump length can be set by making one simple measurement
and setting the pump length without affecting the UL listing.
Reliable Check Valve
The STP uses the proven FE PETRO® line check valve. At 70
mm in diameter, this valve reduces pressure loss at high flow
rates resulting in faster fuelling times. FE PETRO® line check
valves are offered in multiple configurations to best suit your
line leak application.
Outlast, Outperform with Franklin Electric Inside
FE PETRO® STPs are powered by the legendary Franklin
Electric motor and built for long term performance. Franklin
Electric-powered submersible pumps provide maximum
uptime and a proven track record in the fuelling industry that
spans more than four decades. They feature best-in-class
flow rates and a long history of dependability.
