Installation

2. Use a motor with the appropriate size pulley to
achieve the needed Pump RPM. To calculate
the motor and motor pulley needed to power
the pump, multiply the Pump Pulley diameter
(14.5") times the pump working RPM (1050)
which equals 15,225, then divide by the motor
RPM. This will determine the motor pulley
diameter (in inches) needed to run the unit.
For example: To calculate the pulley diameter
needed for a 1725 RPM motor, multiply 14.5
by 1050, then divide by 1725, which equals
a motor pulley size of 8.8 inches. Use
the pulley size closest to this figure.
