BETTA FLO 50Y6 - 1.5 HORSEPOWER 2 WIRE PUMP SPECS:

Recommended applications are highlighted in yellow. Most submersible pumps need 30 lbs psi minimum back pressure, regardless of brand name, but the 50Y6 1.5 Horsepower pump is designed to run efficiently and effectively at lower pressures while creating high water volume. It is not a pump you would want to specify for very high lifts or for higher pressure requirement applications such as irrigation.

Yellow shaded areas are within recommended operating pressures and water lift parameters for pump.

This pump is recommended for total water lift of  20 - 140 feet and operating pressure of  0-50 lbs psi.

To use the table below: find your total lift (left column) than follow row over to the gallon per minute you need and you will see the resulting operating pressure at top of that column. For irrigation, pressure below 40 lbs psi may be unacceptable; 50 - 60 lbs psi recommended.

 

Total Lift	0 PSI (NR)	20 PSI (NR)	30 PSI	40 PSI	50 PSI	60 PSI
20 Ft Lift	74.0 GPM	60.0 GPM	52.0 GPM	45.0 GPM	36.0 GPM	29.0 GPM
40 Ft Lift	70.0 GPM	54.0 GPM	45.0 GPM	37.0 GPM	31.0 GPM	12.0
60 Ft Lift	64.0 GPM	47.0 GPM	39.0 GPM	33.0 GPM	20.0 GPM
80 Ft Lift	56.0 GPM	39.0 GPM	33.0 GPM	20.0 GPM
100 Ft Lift	48.0 GPM	34.0 GPM	20.0 GPM
120 Ft Lift	42.0 GPM	25.0 GPM
140 Ft Lift	35.0 GPM	10.0 GPM
160 Ft Lift	29.0 GPM
180 Ft Lift	20.0 GPM

Lift - means Total Lift from water level in your well or pond vertically straight up to a point level with highest point of water usage, such as the highest sprinkler head or a second floor shower head. This is how far the pump is being asked to lift your water.

1. Stainless steel discharge and liquid-end coupler.
2. Anti-up-thrust set screw prevents impeller drag at startup and low head application, results are increased pump life and liquid end longevity.
3. Extra large graphite-impregnated bronze bearing runs cool and quiet while providing perfect shaft alignment for less wear-causing vibration. 
4. Stainless steel tubing provide corrosion resistance and long life.
5. Stainless steel cable guard protects motor leads during installation and pump start-up.
6. Impellers are made of abrasive resistant high strength glass-filled noryl.
7. High efficiency noryl diffusers provide for larger O.D. impellers.
8. Pump shaft in 7/16" hex series 400 stainless steel.
9. Stainless steel suction screen, completely non-corrosive, protects pumping elements from harmful materials and increases impeller and pump life.
10. Motor coupling is a one piece sintered stainless powdered metal part. Then 7/16 hex shaft is locked in with a screw and with lock-tite applied to the threads.
11. One piece motor bracket and suction are supplied in stainless steel.

• Check valve supplied on all pumps.
• Screw, nuts and washers are stainless steel.
• Motors on Betta Flo pumps continue to be the industry benchmark Franklin Electric, considered to be the best pump motor on the market, while many competitors have gone to lesser quality motors in efforts to cut production cost.
• Overall, the very popular professional grade Betta Flo pump line has a well earned reputation for quality and performance stretching back to the days of the legendary Blue Max pumps. Betta Flo pumps by National Pump have proven that performance and quality can also be coupled with a cost-effective price.
