Product Overview

The FMX150 features a patented 1.5" x 1.5" self‑priming hydraulic design that ensures rapid and consistent priming without the need for auxiliary priming equipment. Its robust 316 stainless steel construction enables compatibility with a broad range of fluids, including petroleum derivatives, diesel exhaust fluid (DEF), biocides, fertilizers, and seawater. This superior material selection helps prevent corrosion, pitting, and wear, significantly extending service life in harsh or variable operating conditions. 

Equipped with a semi‑open 6.0" maximum‑diameter impeller, the pump is optimized to handle flows exceeding 100 GPM (22.7 m³/h) while reaching heads of up to 110 feet (34 meters). Its semi‑open design allows efficient passage of solids up to 0.65" (16.5 mm), making it suitable for applications where particulate‑laden or moderately viscous liquids are present. 

The FMX150 provides reliable suction lift capability up to 17 feet when operating at 3450 RPM, ensuring dependable operation in scenarios requiring lift from below‑grade sources or where system vacuum is required. The pump is available in a close‑coupled 56C motor configuration with power options up to 3 HP (2.2 kW), contributing to a compact footprint and simplified installation. 

A standard carbon/ceramic/Viton mechanical seal package provides excellent resistance to chemical exposure and thermal cycling, supporting long seal life and reduced maintenance intervals. Combined with durable stainless‑steel pump components, the FMX150 offers an extended operational lifespan and outstanding performance stability under continuous or intermittent duty.
