reached. Engine speed and pump discharge pres-
sure vary with the weight of the liquid being
pumped and the demands of the pumping appli-
cation. See the pump performance data plate,
located on the noise shield, to determine the correct
flow rate for the liquid being pumped. Pump capaci-
ties are shown in US gallons per minute (cubic
meters per hour). Discharge pressures are shown in
psi and feet of head for 1.00, 0.72, and 0.85 speci-
fic gravity liquids. Engine speed is shown in 100
rpm increments from 2000 to 2400 rpm (maxi-
mum governed speed). Pump and engine assembly
will give satisfactory life and performance when
operated in accordance with the pump performance
data.
