Features
- Back pull-out feature with an ANSI series bearing frame for ease of maintenance.
- Every LHAULPLA series pump offers both rapid priming time and high lift capabilities.
- Inherently self-priming, eliminating the need for check valves, foot valves, and auxiliary priming devices.
- LHA/LPLA design incorporates large diameter ANSI shafts which minimize shaft deflection and reduce mechanical seal wear.
- Circular casing eliminates vapor lock.
- Component construction enables the user to replace any individual part without replacing the entire unit.
- Removable basket strainer prevents foreign solids from damaging the pump.
