Frequently asked questions
Common questions about FLOTEC from 3G Electric.
What types of pumps does FLOTEC offer for well water applications?
FLOTEC offers convertible well jet pumps, such as the FP4332 model, which is a 1 hp thermoplastic pump rated for 115/230V AC single-phase power with a flow rate of 5.6 gpm. These pumps are designed for both shallow and deep well configurations, though the ejector is not included with the base model. The brand also provides jet packages like the FP4855, which includes bolts and is compatible with FP4200 series pumps, allowing field conversion between shallow and deep well setups.
Are FLOTEC utility pumps suitable for continuous operation?
Yes, FLOTEC light-duty submersible utility pumps, such as the FP0S4100X (1/2 hp) and FP0S1250X (1/6 hp), are rated for continuous duty. These pumps handle 0-inch maximum solids and operate on 115V AC. They feature thermoplastic or stainless steel volutes and impellers, with ceramic shaft seals. Models include garden hose adapters for flexible discharge connections, making them suitable for dewatering, water transfer, and flood cleanup.
What materials are used in FLOTEC sewage ejector pumps?
FLOTEC sewage ejector pumps, like the E75STVT (3/4 hp, 115V AC), use cast iron volutes and thermoplastic impellers. These pumps handle solids up to 2 inches in diameter and feature a piggyback tether float switch for automatic operation. The discharge orientation is vertical, and the pump is not rated for hazardous locations. The FP400C system includes a 30-gallon basin with a 2/5 hp pump delivering 42.5 gpm at 10 feet of head.
Does FLOTEC provide emergency floodwater dewatering pump kits?

This plug-in utility pump includes a large discharge hose and features a thermoplastic volute and impeller. It is designed for continuous duty and handles 0-inch solids, making it suitable for removing standing water from basements or flooded areas. The kit provides a ready-to-use solution for rapid deployment.
