Goulds Pumps Ag-Flo Series builds on over
150 years of hydraulic and manufacturing
expertise to produce the finest pump in the
industry. Our line of cast iron close coupled
and SAE drive centrifugal pumps are offered
with a variety of options to make them suited
to almost any irrigation application.

Hydraulic Capabilities
• Flows to 4500 GPM
• Heads to 400 feet
• Temperatures to 250ºF
• Pump can withstand pressures to 200 PSI

Typical Applications
• Center pivot irrigation
• Flood irrigation
• Drip irrigation
• Spray irrigation
• General turf irrigation

Features and Benefits

T he Ag-Flo has many features that make it


suitable for virtually any application:
• Heavy casing wall increases the life
of pump components by resisting
corrosion and abrasion from sand, silt and
other aggressive conditions.
• Bronze wear rings can be removed and
replaced to maintain pump efficiency
without changing the casing or seal
housing.
• Mechanical seal and packing options are
available to suit a wide variety of
applications.
• SAE option allows liquid ends to be
mounted to gas or diesel engines for
application where electricity is not readily
available.
• Available in cast iron / bronze fitted or
all iron.


Product Description
Casing
• Casings with suctions 3" and smaller can be
rotated every 90º, casings 4" and larger can
be rotated every 45º.
• Thick wall provides maximum abrasion
resistance and prevents failure in the event
of pressure pulsations.
• Dual volute on larger sizes equalizes axial
thrust loads to promote long bearing and
shaft life.
• Heavy duty design allows for vertical
(suction down) mounting.

Internals
• Shaft sealing can be accomplished with a
rotating mechanical seal or optional packed
box design.
• PrimeSafe™ option prevents against dry
running utilizing a grease-filled gland.
• Available with silicon bronze or cast iron
impellers.
• Replaceable wear rings and shaft sleeve
affords extended operation of the pump.

Drivers
• Available as close-coupled, frame mounted
or SAE drive.
• Close-coupled pumps can be mounted with
either TEFC or ODP motors.
• SAE drive pumps have optional splined
shaft.
