Product Information :
The March 0140-0001-0400 is a Centrifugal Magnetic Drive Pump and Motor unit, with Polypropylene front and rear housing, Polypropylene impeller, Buna-N o-ring, Ceramic shaft, Ceramic thrust washer, 1-1/8 inch Hose Inlet by 7/8 inch Hose Outlet Ports, and is coupled to a 1/20 Horsepower, 115 Volt AC, Single Phase Motor. This pump is a centrifugal magnetic drive pump, which eliminates the need for a shaft seal. This seal-less centrifugal magnetic drive pump which is commonly found in aquariums. It is capable of generating a maximum flow of 14 gallons per minute at 2 feet, and its maximum head is 11.5 Feet (5PSI). The standard wet end (the materials that come into contact with the solution) is composed of Polypropylene, Buna N, Ceramic. The inlet connection is 1-1/8 inch smooth, and the outlet is 7/8 inch smooth. The maximum internal pressure the pump can tolerate is 50PSI, and the maximum liquid temperature is 190 Fahrenheit or 87 Celsius. This pump is not self-priming, and lacks a suction lift, and requires a flooded suction - the liquid must flow naturally to the pump. It cannot be run dry because the impeller requires the liquid being pumped for lubrication. Do not operate the pump until liquid is inside of the pump and ever run the pump dry. Rated performance capacity is up to 14 GPM open flow, and up to 11.5 feet total dynamic head. At the maximum head of 11.5 feet, the flow will be lower than the rated capacity of 14 GPM. The maximum temperature for this pump is 190 degrees F.

Applications
There are many applications that the March 014000010400 are used in. Typical applications for this pump include aquariums and applications where much flow but little head is needed. The 1404 has pumped has pumped Acetic Acid, Acetone, Ammonium Sulfate, Citric Acid, Ethylene Glycol, Ferric Sulfate, Hydrogen Peroxide, Potassium Hydroxide, Sodium Chloride, Fresh Water, Salt Water, and many more chemicals. Liquids containing ferrous metal fines should not be pumped. This pump may have to be modified to pump liquids or chemicals with specific gravities, viscosities, or elevated temperatures different then ambient water. A magnetic drive pump is sealless, preventing any leakage that is normally associated with a conventional seal pump. Not only does the absence of a seal prevent the leakage of potentially dangerous and expensive liquids, it reduces maintenance time spent on the pump. In any magnetic drive pump, there are only two moving parts, the drive magnet and the impeller. With only two moving parts, there is little to break in the pump, and this pump is serviceable with a screwdriver. The simpler the pump, the less chance there is for failure. A magnetic drive pump is your answer to for a long lasting, dependable, reliable pump. Install the pump as near to the suction source and as low as possible with a flooded suction. The Pump should be mounted horizontally on a foundation secured by anchor bolts on a flat, stable surface or supports which are suitable to prevent movement of the pump and motor when in operation. It is advisable to mount the motor on a dampening/insulation surface to reduce noise and vibration caused by the moving components while operation. Always ensure that the outlet port is higher than the inlet port. This allows a path for the air to escape through. If the outlet is not higher than air can build up and may cause problems within the system. The pump should never be mounted vertically with the pump head at the lowest point. This will create an air pocket within the pump chamber and may cause problems.
