2. MAxIMUM INLET PRESSURE
The following table shows the maximum permissible 
inlet pressure. However, the actual inlet pressure + 
pressure against a closed valve must always be lower 
than the maximum permissible operating pressure.

4. TEMPERATURE CAPABILITY
The SSV pump is capable of pumping liquids within 
the below temperature range:
1-4SV 
-º F to 50º F (-30º C to 10º C)
33SV-9SV 
-º F to 50º F (-30º C to 10º C)
NOTE: In order to provide adequate cooling for the 
electric motor, the ambient temperature must 
be 3º F to 104º F and the relative humidity at 
104º F must not exceed 50%.
For temperatures above 104º F and for installations 
sites located at elevation in excess at 3000 feet above 
sea level it may be necessary to derate the motor 
performance. Please contact your distributor/dealer for 
assistance.
WARNING
5. MINIMUM NOMINAL FLOW RATE
To prevent overheating of the internal pump com-
ponents, make sure that a minimum water flow is 
always guaranteed when the pump is running.
For continuous operation the minimum flow rate 
recommended is specified below.

NOTE: If this cannot be archived, then a bypass/ 
recirculate line is recommended.
Do not run the pump against a closed 
discharge for longer than a few seconds.
6. NUMBER OF STARTS PER HOUR
For electric pumps coupled to motors supplied by 
Goulds Pumps, the maximum number of work cycles 
(starts and stops) in one hour are as follows:
HP

For more details, refer to technical manual.
If you use a different motor from 
the standard one supplied by Goulds 
Pumps, please consult with the motor manufacturer 
to find out the maximum number of work cycles 
allowed.
7. POWER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
Make sure that the supply voltages 
and frequencies are suited to the 
characteristics of the electric motor. Check the  
motor rating plate.
In general, the supply voltage tolerances for motor 
operation are as follows:

1. TRANSPORTATION AND HANDLING OF  
    PACKED PRODUCT
The SSV pump is packed in cartons or wooden 
crates having different dimensions and shapes.
Some cartons (the supporting base 
is made of wood) are designed to be 
transported and handled in the vertical position. 
Other cartons, as well as the wooden crates, are 
designed to be transported and handled in the hori-
zontal position. Protect the product against humid-
ity, heat sources and mechanical damage (collisions, 
falls, ...). Do not place heavy weights on the cartons.
