Overview of Primary Product

Take away these eight standard features
and you’ll have a pump like everyone else’s.
True Back Pullout
A B&G standard in design
and construction.Ease in
service is assured, while
piping and motor remain
undisturbed. Extended
delays for repairs are
virtually eliminated.
Internally Self-Flushing Mechanical Seal
This design is way ahead of its time. This unique seal
design is proven in many years of service. It requires
no special external flushing provisions, since the design
provides for constant efficient flushing action internally.
This standard feature ensures maximum seal face
lubrication, heat dissipation and debris removal without
vulnerable, external flush tubing. The internal flushing
action passes two and a half to three times the flow
over the seal faces — compared to a few GPM for
conventional, stuffing-box designed pumps.
Solid-Foot Mounted Volute
All Series 1510 pumps are
provided as standard with
an integrally cast volute foot
located directly beneath the
pump volute. This integrally cast
foot ensures that the alignment
between the volute and motor
assembly is maintained. Without
solid support beneath the volute, the piping weight alone
will cause distortion which can lead to premature failure
of the bearings, shaft and mechanical seal. This feature is
equally important on hot water applications. The Series
1510 volute foot provides a solid foundation and eliminates
the deflections which would otherwise exist within an
unsupported overhung volute during the normal thermal
expansion of the system piping against the volute.
Heavy Duty, Rugged Baseplate
The Bell & Gossett fabricated heavy duty baseplate is
supplied as standard on every Series 1510 pump. Unlike
rolledsteeland“C”channelbaseplates,theSeries1510
baseplate provides a heavy duty saddle assembly, full
seam welds, closed baseplate ends and an open top to
provide ease of access for proper equipment grouting
.
ANSI/OSHA-Compliant
Coupling Guard
The coupler guard complies with
ANSI B15.1 and OSHA 1910.219.
The guard offers increased
protection against potential
injuriesandisstandardonall
1510 pumps. The guards include slotted viewing windows
for easy inspection.
Computer Controlled
Impeller Balancing
1510 impellers are balanced
to ANSI/HI 9.6.4-2009, balance
grade G6.3 standards. This
method of computer balancing
Impellers provides for quiet,
efficient, vibration free
performance. Diameters are
computer selected at the factory to furnish assurance
that your capacity requirements will be met.
Center Drop-Out
Spacer Coupling
Unlikeconventionaljaw
type or rigid style couplings,
a center drop-out spacer
coupling allows removal of the
bearing frame and rotating
element without disturbing the
pump end pipe alignment or motor electrical connections.
Patented i-ALERT
TM
Condition Monitor
Continuously measures
vibration and temperature
at the outboard bearing and
automatically indicates when
pre-set levels of vibration and
temperature have been exceeded, so that changes can be
made before failure occurs. A visual indication of pump
health makes walk-around inspections more effi cient and
accurate. This onboard pump intelligence helps minimize
life-cycle costs while maximizing performance.
