FRANKLIN Products

Marketers concerned about fuelling times, efficiency, ser- viceability, reliability and overall quality find it an easy choice to specify FE PETRO® brand submersible turbine pumps (STPs). An STP has to be reliable, it has to be safe, and it has to perform. That's why thousands of station owners around the world have trusted FE PETRO® STPs and the Franklin Electric motors that drive them to keep their business flowing for over 30 years. With best-in-class flow rates and backed by a long history of dependability FE PETRO® STPs simply do their job without fail, delivering fuel to customers day after day without a hitch.

Faster Fuelling Times

Available on FE PETRO® brand 2 Hp models, a MagShell® expands the pump motor shell to increase the flow area around the motor by 45%. The expanded flow area creates significantly higher flow rates compared to a traditional pump motor shell. This additional flow capability is equivalent to having one more nozzle open during peak operating times.

Active Air Eliminator

FE PETRO® brand STPs come standard with active air elimination, which eliminates air through the highest point in the pump head at all times when the pump is running, assuring air does not pass into discharge piping.

Manual Pressure Relief

As a standard FE PETRO® feature a vent screw is provided to bleed line pressure to zero when necessary. By turning this screw, product is diverted back to the tank, dropping line pressure to zero. This reduces fuel discharged into the sump manhole or dispenser pan during servicing, further protecting service technicians and the environment.

Simple Servicing

If ever required, the pump can be easily removed from the tank by unthreading three bolts. There is no need to disconnect the syphon system or to remove the leak detector from the system to service the STP.

Variable Length

The VL2 pump fits 94% of all known tank diameters and tank bury depth combinations. The VL1 and VL3 are available to handle installations shorter or longer than this range. The telescoping connection is a patented FE PETRO® feature. Pump length can be set by making one simple measurement and setting the pump length without affecting the UL listing.

Reliable Check Valve

The STP uses the proven FE PETROR line check valve. At 70 mm in diameter, this valve reduces pressure loss at high flow rates resulting in faster fuelling times. FE PETROR line check valves are offered in multiple configurations to best suit your line leak application.

Specifications

• 2 hp fixed speed models are available in variable length and fixed length options.
• Check valve: 70 mm diameter fluorocarbon seal constructed on cast aluminium body and steel backing washer.
• Pressure relief valve: available in four pressure relief settings, integral to check valve. Standard model relieves at 2.76 bar and resets above 2.41 bar.
• Syphon: venturi-type syphon primer supplied with every submersible. Syphon check valve and secondary syphon sold separately.
• Air eliminator: every submersible includes a tank return path with one-way check valve to provide active air elimination.
• Electrical disconnect: electrical yoke for positive contractor disconnect during service.
