Product catalog summary
Introduction to Flexible Impeller Pumps
The document introduces the ITT Jabsco family of flexible impeller pumps (FIP), known for their global presence and quality. It serves as a guide to understanding FIP basics and selecting the right pump for various applications.
History
Founded by Jack Streeter and Art Briggs in 1938, Jabsco developed the first flexible impeller pump for air conditioning systems. The technology now serves diverse applications like engine cooling and food processing.
Product Range and Specifications
Flexible impeller pumps offer:
  • Pressure: 0 – 60 PSI (0 – 4.13 Bar)
  • Flow rates: 0 – 185 GPM (0 - 700 LPM)
  • Viscosity: 1 – 4000 Cp
  • Voltages: 12/24 VDC, 115/230 – 60 / 50 Hz
  • Materials: Neoprene, Nitrile, Viton, EPDM
  • Body: Epoxy, Phenolic, Bronze, Stainless Steel
Working Principle
The pump uses rotating impeller blades to create a vacuum, allowing atmospheric pressure to push liquid into the pump, providing a continuous flow.
Features and Benefits
  • Self-priming: Lifts fluid up to 22 feet when wet
  • Handles viscous liquids and hard solids
  • Non-shear action for delicate fluids
  • Compact and easy to maintain
  • Lower cost installation and maintenance
Safety Warning
Avoid using pumps for gasoline or fluids with a flash point below 100º F (38º C).
Specific Models and Applications
Details on various models include:
  • 12560 Series: Phenolic plastic, 12V DC, for US markets
  • 3010 Series: Epoxy pedestal, for international markets
  • 28250 Series: Epoxy head kit, for international markets
  • 17430 Series: Epoxy utility pump, for US markets
Each model is tailored for specific applications, emphasizing corrosion resistance and self-priming capabilities.
Operational Guidelines
Guidelines include selecting motors and impellers based on application needs, torque requirements, and flow adjustments.

Fle xible Impeller Pumps Introduction There are probably few parts of the world where the ITT Jabsco family of products are not in use or where our brands are not known. The reason is simple: “Make good fit-for-purpose products and you will get a good name”. This new catalogue is designed to help you understand the basics a Flexible Impeller Pump (FIP), and supply you with a quick reference guide, enabling you to choose the correct pump for the application. The History. The Original Designed by Jack Streeter and Art Briggs Jack Art Briggs Streeter Company • To come up with the name Jabsco, these inventors used the first letter from each of their names and added the co, to be Jabsco. Jabsco pump company formed in Burbank, California • First pump designed in 1938 • The patent for the flexible impeller was issued in 1940. • Designed in response to a specific customer requirement for condensate removal from air conditioning systems. • The FIP principle has been applied to a diverse range of applications ranging from, engine cooling systems, bulk milk transfer, food processing, and industrial applications. section Five | page 8 0
