PART 1
GENERAL
**************************************************************************
NOTE: This guide specification, as written, is for
use in construction contracts for the building of
pumping stations. If it is to be used in supply
contracts, it should be changed as appropriate.
The pump, motor, base, electrical power, engine, and
clutch (if used) are all related components but are
not included in this specification.
The epicyclic reducer is reliable and especially
well suited to high power applications. It should
not normally be deleted as an option if the prime
mover has a vertical shaft.
