PUMP IDENTIFICATION
There are two identification plates on each pump.
The pump rating plate gives identification and
rating information. Figure 1 shows an example of a
typical Rating Plate.

Permanent records for this pump are referenced
by the Serial Number and it must, therefore, be
used to order all spare and replacement parts. The
last digit indicates the specific pump on orders for
more than one pump. For example, if an order
called for six pumps, all pumps would have the
same first three sets of digits and the last digit will
change to identify each of the six. (e.g. 1-21937-1-
1, 1-21937-1-2, etc.)

The identification number is a number which the
end user of the pump requests to be put on the

rating plate to identify the pump in his operation.
(e.g. CWP-11 stands for Chilled Water Pump No.
11)
