FACGF Gas Engine Driven Centrifugal Pump

Technical Product Description:

The Franklin Electric FACGF Gas Engine Driven Centrifugal Pump is a rugged centrifugal pump package designed for demanding liquid transfer applications where electric power may not be available or practical. Franklin Electric states that the FACGF series is intended for mining, irrigation, construction, and other heavy-duty applications, making it a dependable solution for field use and portable pumping requirements.  

The pump features a cast iron volute with rugged construction and tapped openings for venting and draining, helping support durability in harsh operating environments while simplifying service and fluid management. For higher pressure applications, the FACGF uses an enclosed cast iron impeller, contributing to reliable hydraulic performance and pressure capability.  

The standard mechanical seal is built with carbon/ceramic faces, a fluoroelastomer elastomer, and 300 series stainless steel components, offering a practical balance of sealing performance and corrosion resistance for general pumping duties. The series is powered by industry-recognized Briggs & Stratton, Honda, or Kohler gasoline engines, depending on model, and Franklin notes these engines are equipped with adjustable throttle controls. The pump is designed for horizontal mounting.  

Franklin Electric lists several FACGF configurations, including 2-inch suction x 2-inch discharge models such as the FACGF-5 with a 205 cc Briggs & Stratton engine, the FACGF-5H with a 160 cc Honda engine, and the FACGF-8H with a 270 cc Honda engine. Franklin also lists the FACGF-23K, which uses a 728 cc Kohler engine and features 2.5-inch suction and 2.5-inch discharge connections. On at least one listed model, Franklin specifies a maximum fluid temperature of 212°F. Final performance and engine configuration depend on the exact model selected.
