Introduction
The Technical Manual
The positive pump technical manual has two goals. The first is to provide a useful source of technical informa-
tion on Fristam positive displacement pumps. The second is to help the user analyze their pumping require-
ments, make an appropriate pump selection and size the pump, motor and drive for best performance.
The manual is divided into five sections.
Section 1 – Contains the technical information including: performance curves, dimensional drawings
and descriptions of pump seals, rotors and other options.
Section 2 – Contains tables of information useful for pump sizing.
Section 3 – Describes basic terms and concepts regarding the operation and performance of positive
displacement pumps.
Section 4 – Describes how to analyze a pumping system and obtain the information required for proper
selection and sizing. Also provides a systematic guide through the process of matching a pump to an
application for optimum performance.
Section 5 - Contains dimensional drawings and seal assembly drawings.
Fristam Positive Displacement Pumps

The FKL and FL II are the two positive displacement pumps discussed in the manual. They share many simi-
larities but the pumps are fundamentally different in design.
The FKL is a circumferential piston pump, meaning that its rotors run in a channel described by the pump
housing and built-in internal hubs. The purpose of this design is to achieve high performance by maintaining
tighter clearances and restricting product slip within the pump. The design produces higher pressures, the
ability to self-prime and the capability of handling more difficult products and applications.
The FL II is a rotary lobe pump. Rotary lobes use the movement of two lobes in a pumping chamber to accom-
plish the pumping action. This style of pump is designed for standard duty applications.
Due to Fristam Pumps commitment to continuous improvement, specifications are subject to change without notice.

FKL Special Pump Options
Rectangular Inlet
On most models (FKL 50 – 400), a rectangular inlet is offered
to enhance the pump’s ability to handle very viscous products.
The large dimensional opening minimizes buildup of product
at the inlet which promotes flow into the pump. Performance
is maintained even when pumping very viscous materials be-
cause inlet restrictions are greatly reduced, thereby maintain-
ing high volumetric efficiencies.
Rectangular inlets match industry standards.
High Temperature Rotors

Positive pump efficiency depends upon maintaining close
internal clearances between the rotors and the pump housing.
These clearances are not a problem until higher temperatures
cause the shaft and rotors to expand inside the pump housing.
If the proper measures are not taken, this expansion can result IL-0735
in rotor to cover or even rotor to housing damage.

8/14/00
Rectangular Inlet Design

To counteract this effect, Fristam Pumps offers a high temperature rotor. This rotor leaves greater clearances
throughout the pumping cavity.
High temperature rotors are specified for pumps that are cleaned or steamed at elevated temperatures,
although process conditions may be cooler.
“Chocolate” Rotors
Specially machined rotors are available to produce the larger gaps required to pump chocolate and certain
other viscous and abrasive products. Usage of these rotors should be discussed with the Fristam factory, in
order to assure their proper application.
STEAM
Aseptic Design IN
Aseptic designs are available for most of the

FKL models. All of the dynamic and static STEAM
IN
seals are steam traced to ensure product
sterility.

Jacketed Cover OUT
For applications that require ei-

ther a heating or cooling jacket to
maintain the products state, Fristam
Pumps can provide a jacketed cover.
This jacketed cover is applied di-
rectly over the existing cover simply
by using longer housing studs. The
jacketed cover is constructed of 304
Stainless Steel.

Electropolish
Electropolish, an electro-chemical
process, provides additional smooth-
ing, cleaning and passivation of
pump surfaces. It is generally used
in conjunction with high polish to
produce extremely smooth prod-
uct surfaces. Like high polish, the Jacketed Cover
electropolish process removes some
material and can produce a slight re-
duction in pump performance when
pumping low viscous products.
Note: FKL rotors cannot be electropolished. The chemical process adversely affects the non-galling alloy of
which they are constructed.
High Grit Polish

25 Ra (180 grit) and 20 Ra (240 grit) internal surface finishes are options offered for those applications requir-
ing extremely smooth product surfaces. To accomplish this, additional material is removed from standard
internal surfaces using finer grit abrasives. The removal of material will open the gaps between components
slightly and increase slip. Some reduction of performance will result when pumping low viscosity fluids.
Degassing Cover
Exclusively for the baking industry, Fristam offers an optional degassing cover to vent the natural gases that
are produced in dough. When used with Fristam’s heavy-
duty FKL Series positive displacement pump this feature
gives the dough a finer texture and greater uniformity.
Applications include transferring from a dough trough to a
bun or bread divider or continuous conveyor belt.

FL II Special Pump Options
Rectangular Inlet
On the FLII 75 and 100 pumps, a rectangular inlet
is offered to enhance the pump’s ability to handle
very viscous products. The large dimensional
opening minimizes buildup of product at the inlet
which promotes flow into the pump. Performance
is maintained even when pumping very viscous
materials because inlet restrictions are greatly
reduced, thereby maintaining high volumetric
efficiencies.
High Temperature Rotors

Positive pump efficiency depends upon maintain-
ing close internal clearances between the rotors
and the pump housing. These clearances are not a
problem until higher temperatures cause the shaft
and rotors to expand inside the pump housing. If
the proper measures are not taken, this expansion
can result in rotor to cover or even rotor to hous-
ing damage.
To counteract this effect, Fristam Pumps offers a
high temperature rotor. This rotor leaves greater IL-0732
clearances throughout the pumping cavity. Rectangular Inlet Design 8/14/00
High temperature rotors are specified for pumps that are cleaned or steamed at elevated temperatures, al-
though process conditions may be cooler.
High Grit Polish

25 Ra (180 grit) and 20 Ra (240 grit) internal surface finishes are options for those applications requiring
extremely smooth product surfaces. To accomplish this, additional material is removed from standard internal
surfaces using finer grit abrasives. The removal of material will
open the gaps between components slightly. Some reduction
of performance can result when pumping low viscosity fluids.
Electropolish
Electropolish, an electro-chemical process, provides additional
smoothing, cleaning and passivation of pump surfaces. It is
generally used in conjunction with high polish to produce
extremely smooth product surfaces. Like high polish, the
electropolish process removes some material and can produce
a slight reduction in pump performance when pumping low
viscosity fluids.
Single Lobe
The single lobe option is offered for products containing large
solids. At low speeds, a single lobe rotor can handle the large
particles more gently.

Temperature Changes
Temperature Differentials
Positive pump efficiency depends on internal clearances between the rotors and the pump housing. The pump
can withstand certain temperature changes based on the rotors. For example, if you are running CIP solution
at 180°F and your product is 50°F, that is a 130°F temperature differential. This differential is in the standard
rotor range.
The temperature differential is a concern, because if there is a severe temperature change in the pump, the
shaft and rotors may expand inside the pump housing. This expansion can result in rotor to cover or rotor to
housing damage.
The clearances inside the FKL pump are extremely small, below are the recommended temperature differen-
tials.
FKL Temperature differential Correct Rotor
∆ 140°F standard rotors
∆ 210°F high temperature rotors
Temperature expansion is less of a concern in the FL II Series.
Fristam recommends high temperature rotors for pumps that will be cleaned or steamed at elevated tempera-
tures.
Positive Displacement Pump Cleaning Recommendations

Some recommendations for cleaning PD pumps are as follows:
When you are running products or cleaning solutions with different temperatures, you need to allow enough
time for all of the wetted components inside the pump to reach a steady-state temperature before you start the
pump. If your process does not allow you to stop the pump during this transition, you need to install rotors
that provide larger clearances. Note: that the clearances inside the FKL pump are extremely small.
If the process lines are to be cleaned with the pump, use a by-pass loop around the pump during the CIP mode
to maintain pipe velocity. Once the wetted components are at a steady temperature, the pump can be started
and run around 100 RPM with a backpressure of at least 10 PSI. As the product viscosity increases, the re-
quired backpressure may need to be increased as well.
Contact Fristam if you have any questions.

Section III: Positive Pump Basics
A. Definitions and Terms
Density
Density is the mass of a substance per unit volume. Generally, we express density in units of pounds per
cubic inch.
Specific Gravity
Specific gravity is used to compare the density of a product to the density of water. The specific gravity of a
product is expressed as its density divided by the density of water. This number will have no units, because
it is simply a ratio.
Brix
Also called degrees Brix (°Brix), it is a hydrometer scale for sugar solutions. It is expressed as grams of
soluble solids per 100g of liquid and is temperature corrected. Sugar content is approximately proportional
to the °Brix value, with sugars contributing 55 to 75% of the °Brix.
Viscosity
Viscosity is a measurement of a product’s resistance to flow. Low viscosity products (i.e. water) have little
resistance to flow, while higher viscosity products have a greater resistance to flow. It is key to positive
pump sizing and operation because it affects slip within the pump as well as the pressure required to over-
come frictional loss in the lines. The product’s resistance to flow produces system backpressure and heat.
It will be explained later that the increased resistance to flow can be seen in the relationship between the
frictional pressure loss (psi / foot tubing), flow rate (gpm), and product viscosity (cps) in the pressure loss
charts shown on pages 42-47. It will also be explained that this same resistance to flow, by higher viscosity
products, can be seen in reduced product slip inside the pump.
Newtonian vs. Non-Newtonian Fluids

A Newtonian fluid will have the same viscosity whether or not it is in motion. Examples of this type of fluid
would be water and high fructose corn syrup (HFCS). A non-Newtonian fluid will have a different viscos-
ity depending on the velocity of its flow. The majority of fluids are of this type, some examples would be
ketchup, orange juice concentrate and shampoo.
Thixotropic Fluids
A thixotropic fluid is a type of non-Newtonian fluid that will become less viscous as the shear rate increas-
es. This is also known as shear thinning, ketchup is a good example of this type of fluid. While the product
is static, or standing still, the viscosity can be very high. As the fluid begins to flow it becomes less viscous
and starts to run like water. After it sits again, it becomes very viscous. This thinning is due to shear in the
fluid. As the fluid begins to move, the molecules will slide over each other and require less force to stay in
motion. This force causes a shear stress in the fluid.
55 R9: 1/05
Apparent Viscosity
As previously explained, non-Newtonian fluids have less viscosity in motion, than at rest. The viscosity of a
product in motion is known as its apparent viscosity. When a non-Newtonian fluid is in motion the apparent
viscosity should be used for calculating the pressure drop. The apparent viscosity can be measured using a vis-
cometer and plotting the results as a “Viscosity vs. Shear Rate” curve. This curve can be used with a shear rate
curve for the tubing that is used in the system, to determine the apparent viscosity.

Atmospheric Pressure
Atmospheric pressure is the force exerted by the weight of the atmosphere. At sea level, the average atmo-
spheric pressure is 14.7 pounds per square inch (psia). Refer to Table 2 (page 48) for the average atmospheric
pressure at different elevations.
Gauge Pressure
Gauge pressure is the pressure read on a Figure 3
gauge installed in a system. At sea level the
(1.0 PSIG)=15.7 PSIA
average atmospheric pressure is 14.7 psia, GAUGE
this would be equal to 0 psi gauge pressure. ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE PRESSURE

the atmospheric pressure to the gauge VACUUM PRESSURE
pressure. This is measured in units of

Static pressure is the pressure exerted by a column of liquid above the centerline point of measurement.
p = (Z / 2.31) x sg
z
p = static pressure (psia)

z
Z = liquid level (ft)

sg = specific gravity (product)
2.31 = conversion factor (dimensionless)
Vacuum
Vacuum refers to a pressure that is below the normal atmo-
spheric pressure. If the tank feeding the inlet of a pump is
at an absolute pressure less than atmospheric, the tank is Z
said to be under vacuum. Vacuum is typically measured in Pz
units of inches of mercury (inches Hg). This number must be
converted to psia, for NIPA calculations. For the conversion,
see Table 6 on page 50.
Vapor Pressure
The vapor pressure of a fluid is the pressure required at a
IL-0293
given temperature to keep the fluid from turning to vapor. Figure 4 2/29/00
Water at 210°F has a vapor pressure of 14.123 psia. See

Table 1 for the water vapor pressure on page 48.
NIPR – Net Inlet Pressure Required

NIPR is the pressure required by a pump to perform smoothly without cavitating. NIPR is measured in psia.
NIPA – Net Inlet Pressure Available

NIPA is the absolute pressure available at the inlet of the pump. NIPA is measured in psia.
57 R9: 1/05
Cavitation
Figure 5
Cavitation is the formation of vapor
LOW PRESSURE
bubbles due to insufficient pressure at the
inlet of the pump. High product tempera-
ture and/or low pressure on the inlet side
of the pump can lead to insufficient pres-
sure. Over time, cavitation can seriously
damage a pump. Additional pressure ener- HIGH VAPOR BUBBLES
gy would be required to supply the pump TEMPERATURE IMPLODE
with the energy it requires to keep from
cavitating. Four ways to increase NIPA are
raise the level of the product in the tank,
pressurize the tank, lower the pump or
decrease the product temperature.
If the NIPR of the pump is greater than
the NIPA in the system, the pump will
cavitate. If the NIPR is less than the NIPA, the pump will not cavitate.
B. How a Positive Pump Operates

Positive Displacement Pump Operation
(assuming sufficient NIPR)
Figure 6
Positive displacement pumps use two
opposing, rotating elements (rotors) to
displace product from the suction side
of the pump to the discharge side of the
pump. As the rotors rotate, the chamber
formed between the rotors, housing and SUCTION DISCHARGE
cover collects the product on the inlet side
of the pump and carries the product to the INLET OUTLET
discharge side of the pump.
Slip and Efficiency -

Positive pumps sometimes do not pump
the full displacement for which they are
rated because of a phenomenon called slip.
To allow a positive pump’s rotors to rotate,
small clearances must be maintained
between the rotors and housing. At lower viscosities these clearances allow some product to slip from the
discharge side to the inlet side as the pump operates. The product that slips by will partially fill the inlet cavity.
This amount of product must be “repumped” preventing the pump from reaching its full rated capacity and
decreasing its volumetric efficiency.
R9: 1/05 58
• Internal clearances – The tighter the clearances, the less slip occurs.
• Viscosity – The amount of slip varies inversely with viscosity. The thicker the product, the less slip will occur.
This reduction in slip eventually reaches a point called “zero slip”.
• Zero slip – Zero slip is the point at which the product is thick enough that it will no longer flow past the
rotors. This point varies depending upon the internal clearances of the pump. The FKL reaches zero slip at
200 cps and the FL II achieves it at 500 cps. At these points the amount of differential pressure no longer
becomes a factor.
Volumetric Efficiency = Actual Flow/Flow at Zero Slip
Full volumetric efficiency is achieved on all products with viscosities above the zero slip point.
Actual flow for products between one and the zero slip point will depend on the interaction of product vis-
cosity and the differential pressure. At a
constant product viscosity below zero slip,
increasing the discharge pressure increases Figure 7
the product slip. At a constant discharge
pressure, decreasing the product viscosity
increases the product slip.
SUCTION DISCHARGE
INLET OUTLET
For products with a viscosity between 1 and
200 cps for the FKL and between 1 and 500
cps for the FL II the flow rate is dependent
SLIP
on the product viscosity and the differential
pressure. At a constant product viscosity
below zero slip, increasing the discharge
pressure increases the product slip. At a
constant discharge pressure, decreasing the product viscosity increases product slip. As the slip increases, the
volumetric efficiency of the pump decreases because the full volume of the suction chamber is not available for
new product.
Slip = (Flow @ 0 psi) – (Flow @ 10 psi)
Slip = 100 gpm - 70 gpm
Slip = 30 gpm
VE = 70%
Figure 8 shows the effect that increasing the discharge pressure has on slip and volumetric efficiency. At 0 psi, the volu-
metric efficiency is 100%. As the pressure increases, product slips from the discharge side of the pump to the suction side.

Figure 9 shows that as product viscosity increases, slip decreases. As product slip decreases, volumetric efficiencies
increase. At 200 cps the slip is zero and volumetric efficiency is 100%, assuming that the net inlet pressure of the pump is
satisfied. At 200 cps, the zero psi pressure line is used for sizing the FKL.
Differential Pressure
The differential pressure that the pump must gen- -
erate is key to sizing. Differential pressure is the Figure 10
total pressure against which a pump must work.
Generally the suction pressure is negligible and the
discharge pressure makes up nearly all of the dif-
ferential pressure. If the suction gauge pressure is SUCTION DISCHARGE
positive, the differential pressure across the pump OUTLET
INLET
is the discharge pressure minus the suction gauge
pressure.
Differential Pressure (psi) = Discharge Pressure
(psi) – Suction Pressure (psi) il-0290
5/31/00
The pressure gradient inside the pump shows that
the positive pressure on the suction side (Figure
10) of the pump assists the rotor movement and reduces the product slip inside the pump. Pressurized tanks
and product levels above the pump on the suction side contribute to positive suction pressures.
The pressure gradient inside the pump shows that
the negative pressure on the suction side (Figure -
11) of the pump pulls against the movement of the Figure 11
rotors and increases product slip inside the pump. A
vacuum drawn on a tank and frictional losses in in-
let piping contribute to negative suction pressures.

Pump Speed
Pump speed is affected by product viscosity Figure 12
and the differential pressure. At zero slip, the
pump speed will be directly related to the flow 50 GPM
rate and displacement. The zero psi line on the
pump curves may be used to determine the
pump speed. In the FKL pump the slip stops at
a product viscosity of about 200 cps and in the FLOW
i
ps
FL II pump it stops at about 500 cps.
0
For water like products with a viscosity of one
cps, calculate the differential pressure. Select
the curve labeled with that differential pressure
to determine the pump speed required.
If the product viscosity falls in between 1 cps
and zero slip, you need to use a viscosity cor- RPM
rection to determine the pump speed. The FL II
viscosity adjustment curve is on page 32.

C. Frictional Losses through Sanitary Tubing
Friction loss is the loss of pressure energy through the interaction between the product and the tubing. The
higher the product viscosity, the more pressure energy is lost through friction. This manual contains six
graphs on pages 42-47 that can be used to calculate the system pressure drop through 1 ½”, 2”, 2 ½”, 3”, 4”
and 6” tubing. Use the product’s apparent viscosity and required flow rate to determine the frictional pressure
drop through 1 foot of tubing, then multiply by the length of tubing in your system to obtain the total tubing
frictional loss.
Examples 1, 2 and 3 show the effect of product viscosity and tubing size on frictional loss.
Example 1 – Determine the pressure loss resulting from 50 gpm of water at 1 cps flowing through 100 ft. of 1
½” tubing. (see figure 14)
Directions:
1) Locate the product viscosity on the horizontal axis.
2) Move up vertically until you intersect the system flow rate.
3) Move horizontally and record the pressure loss in psi / foot tubing.
Given:
p = tubing frictional loss (psi) = f × L
f
f = frictional pressure loss (psi/ft tubing)

L = tubing length (ft)

1. Total Discharge Pressure Losses
Several factors will go into calculating the total discharge pressure of the system. In our example, we must
calculate the frictional losses resulting from 200 cps product flowing through 100’ of 1 ½” tubing and three
elbows at 50 gallons per minute. The elevation change of ten feet must also be included in the discharge pres-
sure calculation.

Frictional Loss – Elbows and Tees
To calculate the frictional loss for the fittings, we will first convert the fittings into an equivalent length of
tubing. Refer to Table 3 (page 49) to determine the equivalent length of the three elbows in the discharge tub-
ing. Note that as the viscosity increases, the loss goes down for any one tubing size. This happens because the
higher viscosity product flows through the fitting with less turbulence.
Next, we will calculate the pressure loss over that length of tubing.

2. Pump Suction – Calculating NIPA
The NIPA (net inlet pressure available) should be calculated to determine the pressure energy available to the
pump. The NIPA of the system should be compared to the NIPR (net inlet pressure required) of the pump mod-
el being considered to execute the specific duty. If the NIPA of the system is less than the NIPR for the pump,
the system should be modified to increase the NIPA or a pump model requiring less NIPA should be considered.

IV. Selecting a Positive Displacement Pump
Choosing a Model
A. Gather all application information including product nature, viscosity, temperature, NIPA, flow rate and
pressure loss.
B. Decide what model pump to use, FLII or FKL. For simple applications the more economical FLII pump will
work, when the duty exceeds the capabilities of this pump the FKL should be applied.
The FKL and FL II Product Lines – Better Choices for Better Performance
To best match the broad range of positive displacement pump applications Fristam provides two product lines,
the FKL and the FL II. While sharing many similarities the pumps are fundamentally different in design.
The FKL is a circumferential piston pump, meaning that its rotors run in a channel described by the pump
housing and built-in internal hubs. The purpose of this design is to achieve high performance by maintaining
tighter clearances and restricting product slip within the pump. The design produces higher pressures, the
ability to self-prime and the capability of handling more difficult products and applications.
The FL II is a rotary lobe pump. Rotary lobes use the movement of two lobes in a pumping chamber to accom-
plish the pumping action. This style of pump is designed for standard duty applications.
Choosing Between the FKL or FL II

The FKL can be selected for any application within the capabilities of it or the FL II. Within its range, the FL II
will often be a more attractive selection because of its economy and simplicity. The FL II should be considered
for applications within the following parameters.
• Pressures to 170 psi
• Viscosities to 50,000 cps
• Flooded suction with at least 7 psia available
• Mechanical seals required
• 316L stainless steel rotors required
• Product is low to moderately shear sensitive
71 R9: 1/05
Selecting a Pump Size
Use the composite curves to make your initial pump selection.
1. Locate the product viscosity on the horizontal axis (1).
2. Locate the required flow rate on the vertical axis (2).
3. Determine the intersection between the flow rate and product viscosity (3).
4. Select a pump model above the intersection (3).
When selecting, keep in mind that it is best to run a positive displacement pump at no more than 400 to 500
rpm. The lower speeds reduce seal wear, extend pump life, reduce suction pressure requirements and produce
quieter operation. The composite curves are based on the maximum speed of the pumps; therefore, the model
selected will usually be one or two above the duty point.
For example: For a flow rate of 50 gpm and a product with a viscosity of 200 cps, the model directly above the
duty point is a FLII 75L. However, if we look at the individual curve (page 37) for this pump we will see that it
would have to run above the desired speed range. Therefore, we will select a FLII 100S.

FL II Viscosity Adjustment Curve
Determining Pump Speed 180
Viscosity Adjustment 165 Figure 25
Viscosity adjustment is not necessary for
150
products with a viscosity above the pumps
zero-slip point. Also viscosity adjustment 135
is not necessary for products at 1 cps, since
120
the curves are calculated at 1 cps. The zero
slip point is 500 cps for the FLII and 200 105
cps for the FKL. Speed must be increased
for products with a viscosity below the zero 90
slip point in order to deliver the required
1 75
flow rate. This is the most confusing part
of PD selection. It is necessary because, as 60
discussed on pages 58-61 (How a Positive
Pump Operates), pump performance will
45
vary for viscosities below the zero slip point.
PSI
The adjustment converts the slip factor for
different viscosity products into an equiva- 30
lent based on water.

for the FKL use the curve on page 11. 3

3. Record the adjusted pressure value 4/14/00
on the vertical axis (4). This value is

the pressure that will be used on the slip curve.
73 R9: 1/05
High Temperature Rotor Adjustment
For applications that fall below the zero slip point and require high temperature rotors, another speed adjust-
ment is necessary. The increased clearances produced by these rotors require this adjustment, to compensate
for the additional slip they produce.
For any of the FLII pumps, use the curve on page 32 and for the FKL pump use the curve on page 11.
1. Locate the calculated differential pressure on the vertical axis (1).
2. Follow the pressure line, down and to the right, until it intersects (3) the product viscosity (2).
3. Read all the way to the left until you find the line representing the model that was selected (4).
4. Record the additional speed at the horizontal axis (5). This number will be added to the speed calculated
for the pump.

Determining Pump Speed
To determine the pump speed:
1. Locate the required flow rate on the pump curve (1).
2. Move horizontally until you intersect the correct pressure (2). This will depend on the viscosity of the
product. For products with a viscosity of 1 cps, the correct pressure line will be the differential pres-
sure. For viscosities between 1 and 500 cps for the FLII pump, the correct line will be the viscosity-ad-
justed pressure. For viscosities above 500 cps for the FLII, the correct line will be 0 psi.
3. Move straight down until you intersect the horizontal axis (3).

The duty will be 20 gpm @ 200 psi and the NIPA will be 4 psia
The pressure of this duty point exceeds the maximum of any of our FLII pumps and the NIPA is relatively low,
therefore we will select a FKL pump for this application.
Look at the composite curve (page 11) and select a model. See page 72 for more explanation.
The model that will work best is the FKL 50.
This duty will not require a viscosity or temperature adjustment since the product is at 1 cps. The actual slip

High Fructose Corn Syrup at 5,000 cps, 1.32 SG and 38°F
The pressure of this duty point exceeds the maximum of any of our FLII pumps; therefore, we will select a FKL
pump for this application. Look at the composite curve (Figure 32) and select a model. See page 72 for more
explanation.

The model that will work best is the FKL 250. The FKL 150 is above the duty point, but the speed required is
too high.
This duty will not require a viscosity or temperature adjustment.
Calculate the pump speed, horsepower and application torque. The speed can be calculated by dividing the flow
rate by the displacement, or it can be found by reading the zero slip line on the slip chart.

The FLII 100S is above the duty point. We will not select the FLII 75L for this application, because we are try-
ing to keep the pump speed below the 400 – 500 rpm range.
This duty will require a viscosity adjustment, but will not require a high temperature adjustment.

Following the viscosity adjustment procedure for Figure 36

The NIPA for the application is 10 psia, which is more than adequate for the FLII 130S.
Calculate the pump speed, horsepower and application torque.
For example 4, the FLII 130S requires 360 rpm to deliver 3 cps product at 100 gpm against 80 psi. We then
need to add 27 rpm to the 360 rpm.
