HOW TO ORDER VARIABLE LENGTH MODELS
 

SPECIFY MODEL VL1, VL2 OR VL3 FROM CHART BELOW

MODEL LENGTH = ETD + riser - bottom clearance

DETERMINING MODEL LENGTH

Effective Tank Diameter (ETD) is the combination of any of all of the following:

Tank Diameter (to top of 4" bung) + Manway + Sump Adapter

Riser to be determined by bury depth

BURY
DEPTH
RISER LENGTH
MIN. MAX.
2' 7" 7"
2.5' 7" 11"
3' 7" 17"
4' 7" 29"
5' 7" 41"
6' 7" 53"
7' 7" 65"

Note: Above ground tanks have a minimum riser length of 7".

Note: The VL2 length can be used in 94% of all known installations. The following information indicates certain installations where a VL1 or VL3 is required.

1/3 HP USE VL2 IF MODEL LENGTH IS 84-147".

Use VL1 if model length is shorter than 84 down to 52".

Use VL3 if model length is longer than 147 up to 209".

3/4 HP USE VAL2 IF MODEL LENGTH IS 86-149".

Use VL1 if model length is shorter than 86 down to 54".

Use VL3 if model length is longer than 149 up to 211".

1-1/2 HP USE VAL2 IF MODEL LENGTH IS 89-152".

Use VL1 if model length is shorter than 89 down to 57".

Use VL3 if model length is longer than 152 up to 213".

1-1/2 HP
HIGH
PRESSURE
USE VAL2 IF MODEL LENGTH IS 90-153".

Use VL1 if model length is shorter than 90 down to 58".

Use VL3 if model length is longer than 149 up to 211".

2 HP
VARIABLE
SPEED
USE VAL2 IF MODEL LENGTH IS 88-150".

Use VL1 if model length is shorter than 88 down to 56".

Use VL3 if model length is longer than 150 up to 212".

HOW TO ORDER STANDARD EXACT LENGTH UNITS
To size pump correctly, the following information is needed:

1. Pump Model/Horsepower?

2. Effective tank (Inside) Diameter?

3. Steel or Fiberglass Tank?

4. If Fiberglass:

  • Manufacturer?
  • Single Wall or Double Wall?
  • Will pump mount on tank or on manway?

5. Bury Depth?

6. Containment Sump?

The FE Petro Model Number is designated STP-A-B-C, using the critical dimensions shown above, where:

A = pump horsepower

B = Model Length

C = Riser Length

Minimum riser length=7".
