Specifications and Features
The Roper Pump family includes several series tailored for specific applications:
  • 3600 Series: Suitable for mixing, circulating, and transferring viscous liquids like gasoline, asphalt, and oils, featuring precise tolerances and bi-directional rotation.
  • 3800 Series: Designed for oilfields and hot oils, with sealed ball bearings and helical gears for quiet operation.
  • Bulk Series: Intended for large-scale transfer of fuels and petrochemicals, with large ports for efficient fluid transfer.
  • 5600 Series: Used in hydroseeding and wastewater applications, capable of handling abrasive materials.
  • A Series: General-purpose pumps for clean fluids, operating at standard motor speeds with bi-directional rotation and quiet-running helical gears.
Materials of Construction
The pumps are constructed with durable materials such as cast iron housings, ductile iron gears, and bronze bearings. Optional materials include ductile iron housings and iron or carbon bearings for specific sizes.
Performance and Capabilities
The A Series pumps can handle up to 59 GPM and 300 PSI. Performance charts guide users on horsepower requirements based on speed, viscosity, and pressure. The pumps are designed for easy maintenance and long service life, featuring wear-resistant bearings and precise manufacturing tolerances.
Seal Options
Various seal options are available:
  • Lip Seal: Suitable for low-pressure sealing of lubricating fluids.
  • Mechanical Seal: Ideal for applications where leakage is unacceptable, offering longer service life and less power consumption.
  • Packed Box: Suited for general-purpose applications, allowing slight seepage for optimal performance.
