Franklin FPS-4A 70 LPM 415V Three-Phase Bore Pump – Complete Pump & Motor

The Franklin FPS-4A is a complete 4-inch submersible bore pump and three-phase motor combination designed for water-supply duties around 70 LPM (4 m³/h).

With six different motor and stage combinations available, the FPS-4A range can cover lower-head water transfer through to demanding deep-bore and high-pressure installations.

Suitable applications include rural water supply, stock watering, tank filling, irrigation and general bore-water transfer where three-phase power is available.

Available Variants

All variants belong to the FPS-4A 70 LPM hydraulic range. Higher-stage models provide greater pressure and pumping head.

Included

• Franklin FPS-4A multistage bore-pump end

• Franklin three-phase submersible motor

• Built-in check valve

• Electrical splice kit

• Complete pump and motor combination

Three-Phase Starter Required

A correctly rated three-phase starter or control panel is required to operate this pump safely.

The starter must match the selected motor size and provide appropriate overload and motor protection. It must be installed and commissioned by a licensed electrician.

The three-phase starter/control panel is not included with the pump and must be purchased separately.

Features

• Complete Franklin pump and motor combination

• 70 LPM nominal flow range

• Six stage and motor combinations available

• Multistage design for different pressure and head requirements

• Built-in non-return check valve

• Electrical splice kit included

• Suitable for agricultural, domestic and commercial bore-water applications

• Designed for installations with three-phase power available

Optional Add-Ons

The following equipment can be supplied separately:

• Correctly sized three-phase starter/control panel

• Dry-run and bore water-level protection

• Submersible electrical cable

• Bore cap or bore head

• Stainless-steel safety cable

• Rising main, pipe fittings and valves

• Tank-level controls

• Pressure tank and pressure controls where required

Selecting the Correct Model

The correct model must be selected according to the required flow and total dynamic head—not bore depth alone.

Total dynamic head should account for:

• Pumping water level

• Vertical lift from the water level to the discharge point

• Required outlet pressure

• Pipe length and diameter

• Friction losses through pipework, valves and fittings

• Elevation changes after the bore

• Required flow rate

Contact The Pump Shed Australia with your bore depth, pumping water level, pipe size, delivery distance, elevation and required pressure if you need assistance selecting the correct variant.

Important Performance and Sizing Information

Flow rates are manufacturer figures. Actual flow and pressure will vary depending on pumping water level, total system pressure, pipe diameter and length, elevation, system design, fittings, valves, water conditions, power supply and installation.

All performance information is provided as a general selection guide only and is not a guarantee of actual on-site performance. Correct system design, pump selection and installation are essential.

Nothing in this product information excludes, restricts or modifies any consumer guarantee, right or remedy available under the Australian Consumer Law that cannot lawfully be excluded or modified.

FPS-4A - 70 LPM Range

How to read the FPS-4A 415V table: Flow is shown across the top in litres per minute (LPM). Each number in the table is the approximate total head in metres that the listed FPS-4A three-phase model can produce at that flow. Only points inside the blue 46-94 LPM best-efficiency/warranty zone are shown; operation outside this zone is not covered by warranty.
