Close-coupled pump is designed for general industrial service where space is limited or the cost associated with a frame-mounted pump would not be suitable. While the unit is not designed to meet ANSI B 73.1, it will meet some of the requirements due to the fact that the liquid end incorporates all of the features and benefits of the standard ANSI 3196. Its design is compact and lightweight, and requires no alignment. It may be cart-mounted for applications where portability is desired.
