NAMEPLATE INFORMATION

Every pump has two Goulds nameplates that provide
information about the pump. The tags are located on the
casing and bearing frame.

When ordering spare parts, you will need to identify
pump model, size, serial number, and the item number of
required parts. Information can be taken from the pump
casing tag. Item numbers can be found in this manual.
