Selection information
What we need to select an HCP pump
Send the duty details, not just the old model number.
Six things to send
The information used for a pump selection
If something has not been measured yet, mark it as unknown. Do not guess a value.
Duty
Required flow and total head, including the pipework, valves and discharge route.
Liquid
Liquid type, temperature, pH and any solids, fibres or abrasive material.
Installation
Sump or tank dimensions, water levels, connections and how the pump will be positioned.
Power and controls
Supply voltage, phase, starter, panel, level controls, alarms and operating pattern.
Access
Lifting, removal and maintenance constraints, including anything that needs a site check.
Existing pump
The full data plate and safe photographs of the pump, pipework, controls and wider installation.
Safety
Do not enter, open or energise equipment for an enquiry
Only collect information that is visible and safe to reach. Isolation, electrical testing, lifting and confined-space work need competent people and the right controls.
Current technical data
Check the HCP source before choosing a model
Series names help narrow the search. The final choice must use the current manufacturer record for the exact model and UK electrical supply.
