Gorman-Rupp Super-U Series® pumps are among the most efficient self-priming, solids handling pumps available on the market. Their unique hydraulic design and smooth wall volute casing minimize friction loss and drag. The multi-vane, open impeller is designed for high-efficiency operation yet can still handle limited solids. The pumps deliver high efficiencies (up to 75%) and perform efficiently across a broad operating range. Varying machine loads that cause pumps to operate right or left of their best efficiency point will affect operating efficiency by only a mynute percentage. These pumps offer the same reliability and performance as the U-Series with additional features.
O Series® pumps were originally designed for handling petroleum products. Later, O Series pumps were introduced into the industrial market for effective handling of solvents and similar liquids, as well as excellent clean liquids handling. The straight-in-suction design without a check valve eliminated entrance restrictions provides quick, reliable self-priming with few moving parts offering saving thru minimal maintenance and increased efficiency. The O Series has a variety of seal configurations to choose from allowing it to handle a number of different liquids.
Gorman-Rupp 80 Series® medium head, mild solids-handling, self-priming centrifugal pumps are designed for non-stop work loads.
The straight-in-suction design of these high efficiency pumps guarantees quick positive priming and allows them to operate at higher suction levels than most other self-priming centrifugal pumps.
Roto-Prime® priming-assisted centrifugal pumps are specifically designed for pumping petroleum products, petrochemicals and solvents. The Roto-Prime design incorporates a variable capacity vane pump which quickly and automatically evacuates air and vapor, making the pump ideal for loading and off-loading transports and stripping hoses.
Gorman-Rupp Ultra V Series® engine-driven, self-priming centrifugal pumps are designed for heavy-duty solids handling, high-head applications. Advanced features allow for easy access during maintenance.
Built upon the foundation of the Super T Series®, Gorman-Rupp’s Ultra V Series pumps excel in high-head applications where traditional self-priming trash pumps fall short.
Gorman-Rupp 10 Series® pumps are specifically designed for handling solids, corrosive liquids and slurries. They have few moving parts, so maintenance is minimal. If a clog occurs, it can be removed easily through the cover plate opening without disturbing piping or the use of any special tools. The 10 Series offers a variety of metallurgy and seal configurations to choose from to handle a number of different liquids.
Whether bypassing a pump station during repair, keeping critical services operational at a plant, or helping a construction crew finish on time, Gorman-Rupp’s Super T Series® portable engine-driven pumps keep the liquid flowing. Gorman-Rupp’s Super T Series self-priming centrifugal pumps are designed to reprime automatically in a completely open system – without a need for suction or discharge check valves (an optional discharge check and air release valve is only required when pumping against a pressurized system). Additionally, there is no need for add-on vacuum pumps or compressors, which add to owner maintenance and increase the potential for costly repairs.

80 Series® pumps are designed for non-stop workloads. The straight-in-suction design of these high-efficiency pumps guarantees quick, positive self-priming and allows them to operate at high suction levels than most other self-priming centrifugal pumps. Liquid enters directly into the impeller eye. A suction check valve presents in-line return flow when the pump is shut off. And, because 80 Series pumps have few moving parts, maintenance is minimal. 80 Series pumps are available with self-lubricated mechanical shaft seals.
Gorman-Rupp’s TankleenorTM provides quick, efficient and economical cleaning of petroleum storage tanks. The unit is a lightweight, wheelmounted cleaning system designed for one-man operation and is easily moved from job to job.
Even when tanks are thought to be free of moisture and foreign debris, they often contain enough water and other contaminants to degrade the stored product. The Gorman-Rupp TankleenorTM can remove contaminants including gel precipitates, microbial growths, rust and water, without disturbing the product or taking the tank out of service.
Operating liquid drawn from the contaminant tank circulates through the pump and creates a vacuum at the eductor. The vacuum draws moisture and contaminants through the cleanout hose and back to the eductor, where it mixes with the operating liquid and is carried to the contaminant tank.
Gorman-Rupp O Series® gear-reducer, power take-off (PTO) pumps are ideal for a variety of clean liquid-handling applications. Whether it’s controlling dust at a quarry or supplying aircraft fuel, O Series PTO pumps excel in moving fluids that do not contain large solids.
Their rugged, lightweight construction and compact design enable mounting in the unused space between the cross member of the chassis frame on refueling and water transfer vehicles. Power take-off pumps provide the performance to handle the rates of fuel required by local service carriers and suppliers. These pumps are ideal for handling fuel oil, gasoline or other petroleum based products. And, when necessary, their efficient, economical design permits multiple unit installation making them perfect for fire trucks and water wagons.
The safest way to handle a hazardous pumping operation is to use a pump that is designed for the job. That’s why Shield-A-Spark pumps by Gorman-Rupp feature a spark and splash shielded engine, muffler and fuel cap.
Four Shield-A-Spark models are available in 2” and 3” discharge sizes and are capable of delivering up to 395 gpm and heads up to 140′.
The gasoline engine unit features a dependable, rugged military or aircraft type spark plug which is radio suppressed and prevents spark gap jumping. A shielded ignition wire provides an enclosed path for high tension spark. The sealed toggle ignition switch is safe and spark free, and the spark-arresting muffler is designed to retard both sparks and flames.
Gasoline and diesel models are available that include non-combustible air filters and long-life valves.
For pumping applications where noise levels must be kept to a minimum, Gorman-Rupp offers a sound-attenuated engine-driven pump unit. Lockable doors prevent unauthorized personnel from tampering with the pump, fuel, engine or controls during unattended service. Fuel capacity allows for a minimum of 24 hours of continuous operation. All units feature a lightweight, corrosion-resistant aluminum enclosure that is acoustically treated to maintain noise levels as low as 63 dBa while operating at full load. Our environmentally engineered Silent Pump units operate much quieter than current industry standards.
