NOTE: This guide is intended to be used in the
UFGS-15131A VERTICAL PUMPS, AXIAL-FLOW AND
MIXED-FLOW IMPELLER-TYPE, and UFGS-15005A SPEED
REDUCERS FOR STORM WATER PUMPS. The Designer should
edit the title of this section to reflect
appropriate project requirements.
The designer is responsible for making a prime mover
selection from either an electric motor, a diesel
engine, or a natural gas engine. The guidance for
making proper selection is contained in EM
1110-2-3105, "Mechanical and Electrical Design of
Pumping Stations".
