SIMPLEX PACKAGED PUMP SETS (SPS/SKS SERIES) DUPLEX PUMP SYSTEMS OPTIONS Other options: Mechanical, Control Devices and Alarms, Level Controllers, Gauges, and Fill Controllers, and Pumps and Motors |

Duplex pump options are used to increase the reliability of a pumping system through the addition of a second, backup pump and level control. In a duplex system, one pump is designated the lead pump and the other is the lag pump. The lead pump automatically refills the tank over the tanks normal operating range of 50% to full. Normally, once the tank has been initially filled, the fuel level should never drop below 50%. Less than 50% is indicative of either a failure of the lead pump or consumption in excess of pump capacity. The lag pump and its separate level controller, acting as a backup senses a drop in fuel level below 50% and starts the lag pump, which then continues to run, along with the lead pump, until the tank is full. When ordering, remember that duplex systems include two motor-pumps and therefore require a quantity of two of any option related to the motor or pump, such as valves, strainers, etc. |

SIMPLEX PACKAGED PUMP SETS (SPS/SKS SERIES) PUMPS AND MOTORS OPTIONS Other options: Mechanical, Control Devices and Alarms, Level Controllers, Gauges, and Fill Controllers, and Duplex Pump Systems Note: The following optional pumps and motors are in lieu of basic unit. The 2 GPM Super-XL pump and the 1/3 HP, 230V AC, single-phase, 60 Hertz motor are the standard pump and motor provided with the basic unit. Pump capacity at 1725 RPM. 50 Hz operation reduces capacity to 83%. |
