This Beckett FR Series centrifugal pump is magnetically driven and contains no seals to leak or wear out. It also contains no oil as other types of submersible utility pumps do, thereby eliminating the possibility of oil leaks which can foul your water. All electrical parts and connections are completely encapsulated with epoxy. These features, combined with very low energy consumption, make for a safe and convenient pump which is economical to operate. In addition, it is essentially maintenance-free.
The Beckett FR Series pump is designed to operate completely submerged. Cleaning of the filter can be reduced by placing the pump on a brick or patio stone in the water to raise it above the level of the debris which accumulates on the bottom.
A prefilter is supplied with the pump. Using and maintaining a clean prefilter will greatly decrease maintenance in cleaning the impeller assembly as well as providing better water filtration and pump flow.
