Centrifugal Pump is the Answer
This versatile pump, simple and sturdy in design, is an entirely self-contained unit. Its close-coupled design elimi nates coupling and assures perfect alignment with freedom from vibration.
The "Closc-Cupld" needs no space consuming special foundation ... no unwieldy base plate to support pump and motor. As a result, installation costs are low.
Hundreds of those pumps are doing u wide variety of jobs in factories, steel mills and cltemical plants. Interchange able parts keep inventories low. Avail able in a wide variety of sizes. Capac ities to 2000 C.P.M. Heads to 400 ft. Bulletin 710.1 gives complete specifica tions. Send for it today. Or call your Goulds representative for the full story.
