SUGGESTED SPECIFICATIONS FOR ARCHITECTS AND ENGINEERS:

Furnish and install as shown on plans a Simplex (or Duplex) Underground Condensation Return Unit, as manufactured by Federal Pump Corporation, Unit No. RV- _______, having a rated capacity of _______ Sq. Ft. Equivalent Direct Radiation (E.D.R) with pump capacity of _______ G.P.M. (each) at a discharge head of _______ P.S.I. at the pump(s). Unit to be completely assembled, vertical enclosed shaft type, comprising receiver and cover, pump(s), motor(s) and controls.

Pump(s) to be bronze-fitted centrifugal type, with balanced bronze impeller, stainless steel shaft and vapor seal where the shaft passes through the suspension plate. The motor pedestal shall have a raised ball thrust bearing enclosed in dust and moisture-proof housing. Pump bearing shall be renewable bronze sleeve type protected by a mechanical shaft seal.

Pump(s) shall be flexibly-coupled to ____H.P., ____phase, ____cycle, ____volt, ____R.P.M. drip-proof, ball bearing, induction motor(s).

Receiver shall be cast iron (or steel) construction, ____ins. dia. x ____ ins. in depth. Tank cover shall be steel with necessary openings for pump(s), controls and vent connection.
(Each) pump shall be controlled by individual enclosed float switch, pedestal mounted on tank cover. (If alternation is desired on duplex units, specify an alternating float switch to alternate the cycle of operation of the pumps and provide simultaneous operation during peak load periods.)

Furnish a magnetic starter, mounted on unit and wired to the motor(s) and float switch(es) for each 3-phase motor or 1-phase motor in integral HP size. 1-phase motors in fractional HP size shall have built-in overload protection.
