Franklin Electric Pump Ends and Stacks

Franklin Electric pump ends, replacement stacks and pump-end kits let you rebuild a Franklin pump on the motor or engine that is already in service. VR and VRL pump ends are the complete vertical multistage pump without motor, for 1VR through 95VR, with the PE code naming the NEMA C-face frame it takes (56C to 364-5TSC). VR replacement stacks are the hydraulics only. They are ordered by stage count, impeller trim, coupling fit code and date code, for pumps built September 2022 and later. Close-coupled and engine kits cover D, AG, HC, XS, FAC, FBSEF and FACGF, FBSGF, FNSGF, FNG and FMIG pumps on 56C, JM and JP motors or threaded and keyed engine shafts. VR hydraulics are 316 stainless steel with a Type 1 cartridge seal and NSF/ANSI 61 and 372 certification, and every part is matched by the model on the nameplate. We supply U.S. 60 Hz builds and offer engineering-led selection: send the pump and motor nameplates and we return the order number, the motor it needs and the seal and flange parts that go with it.

This collection holds the Franklin Electric pump-side parts that let you rebuild a pump without replacing its driver. A VR pump end is the complete vertical multistage pump — casing, stack, cartridge seal and motor mount — built to take a standard NEMA C-face motor. A VR replacement stack is only the hydraulic assembly inside it. A pump-end kit is the wet end of a close-coupled or gas-engine centrifugal pump, sized to bolt back onto the existing motor or engine. It is for facility and plant maintenance teams, pump and booster-package contractors, irrigators, and water-truck and dewatering operators with a sound motor and a worn or damaged pump.

We supply U.S. 60 Hz builds matched by the model code on your nameplate. Send us a photo of the pump and motor nameplates and we will return the correct order number, the motor frame and HP it needs, and anything else the job takes (seal kit, O-ring kit, companion flanges) — engineering-led selection, confirmed against Franklin literature. Call 1-888.510.4036 or email sales@watermainsupply.com. Genuine Franklin Electric equipment, factory-new in original packaging — sold and supported by Watermain Supply, an independent industrial supplier.

Will It Work for Me?

Four checks before you order a pump end, stack or kit.

Warranty

VR pump ends and stacks: Franklin covers VR Series products with a limited warranty of 1 year from the date of original purchase, per the VR Series Owner’s Manual.

Close-coupled and engine-driven centrifugal lines: Franklin’s limited warranty runs 12 months from installation or 24 months from manufacture, whichever occurs first, per the FAC, FBSE/FBSEF and FACGF owner’s manuals. Full terms and conditions are in the manufacturer’s manual.

Reliability

The VR pump end carries pump thrust on its own oversized bearing, so it runs on standard NEMA motors; high-thrust motors are not required. Hydraulics are 316 stainless steel with a Type 1 cartridge seal.

Close-coupled kits replace the whole wet end at once — impeller, seal and volute together — so worn parts are not mixed with new ones.

Fit

The VR stacks listed here fit pumps built September 2022 and later (date code 22J19 and later). Earlier pumps (22H19 and earlier) take different stack numbers.

HC, XS and D kits ship with the largest impeller for their frame range; trimming and re-balancing to your duty is part of the rebuild. The motor frame (56C, JM, JP, TC or TSC) must match the kit or PE code.

Match It Now

Send the pump nameplate, the motor nameplate and a photo of the unit. We return the order number and what else the rebuild needs.

Quick rule. Casing sound and the VR was built September 2022 or later: order the stack plus the seal kit and O-ring kit. Casing damaged, build date unknown, or a different motor frame: order the pump end whose PE code matches the motor. Close-coupled or engine pump: order the kit that matches the pump model on the nameplate and the motor frame or engine shaft.

How to Match a Pump End, Stack or Kit

The nameplate decides the part. The duty check makes sure the old selection still fits the system.

1. Read the VR model code

Example: 30VR022AGF1A-PE18. 30 = nominal 160 GPM at 3600 RPM. VR = 2-pole (VRL = 4-pole, 1800 RPM). 02 = two stages. 2A = two trimmed stages (1A = one, 00 = no trim). G = cast iron casing with 316 SS hydraulics (N = all 316 SS). F = round flange. 1 = graphite/SiC EPDM seal. A = NEMA motor. PE18 = the pump end takes a 180TC motor.

2. Choose pump end or stack

For a stack, you need the stage count, the trim, the coupling fit code (code 1 for 56C to 213-5TC motors, code 2 for 254-6TC to 364-5TSC) and the date code. Stacks in this collection fit date code 22J19 and later. For a pump end, match the full model code and the PE code to the motor frame, then pick the motor HP Franklin pairs with that stage count on the complete-pump listing.

3. Match a close-coupled or engine kit

Read the pump model (for example A2256, HC4475 or XS8613), the connection (NPT or flanged), the seal type (mechanical or packing), the speed and the motor frame from the motor nameplate. The HP range on the kit shows which motors it fits. Kits for HC, XS and D ship with the largest impeller for that frame range, so trim and re-balance to the duty. For engine kits, match the pump model and the engine shaft: threaded or keyed, 5/8 in, 1.0 in or 1-1/8 in.

4. Check the duty still fits

If the system changed since the pump was chosen, recheck total dynamic head: TDH = static lift + friction loss + required pressure × 2.31 ft/psi. The reverse conversion is 0.433 psi per foot of water.

Worked example. A VR booster lifts 20 ft to the top floor, friction is 12 ft, and the top fixture needs 60 psi. TDH = 20 + 12 + (60 × 2.31) = 20 + 12 + 138.6 = 170.6 ft. As pressure, 170.6 × 0.433 = 73.9 psi of boost. If that duty sits above roughly 70% of the model’s maximum (shut-off) head, look at one more stage or the next size up; we confirm against the manufacturer curve.

NPSH check. From the VR catalog: maximum lift H = Ho − NPSHr − Hf − Hv − Hs. Franklin’s example at sea level for a 10VR05 at 60 GPM: 33.95 − 10.0 − 4.78 − 0.72 − 3.95 = 14.5 ft maximum vertical lift. A negative result means the pump must sit below the liquid level.

What to send us: pump nameplate (model code and date code), motor nameplate (frame, HP, RPM, voltage and phase), a photo of the pump, and the duty if it changed. See Pump Curve 101 for reading a curve.

What Is Built In

The design details that change how a rebuild goes.

Thrust Bearing in the Pump End

The VR pump end carries hydraulic thrust on its own oversized bearing. Any standard NEMA C-face motor of the right frame and HP will run it; a high-thrust motor is not required.

PE Code Names the Frame

PE56 through PE36 tells you the motor frame the pump end takes. Reading it off the order number prevents the most common mistake: a pump end that does not bolt to the motor on site.

Type 1 Cartridge Seal

VR pump ends carry a graphite/silicon carbide cartridge seal with EPDM and stainless steel parts. It installs as one unit, so seal faces are not set by hand.

316 SS Hydraulics

All VR stacks and pump ends use AISI 316 impellers, stage housings and diffusers. 1–20VR pump ends are 316 SS throughout; 30–95VR use a cast iron casing and upper flange.

Rotatable Flanges on 30–95VR

Two rotatable steel flanges with oval bolt holes fit both DIN and ANSI mating flanges, so a pump end drops into existing piping.

Back Pull-Out Kits

AG pumps use a back pull-out design for seal replacement, and XS and HC casings have jack-out holes. The volute stays piped while the rotating assembly comes out.

Max-Diameter Impellers

HC, XS and D kits ship with the largest impeller for their frame range, balanced. Trim to the duty and re-balance so the motor is not overloaded.

Seal or Packing Choice

AG, HC and XS kits come in mechanical-seal or packing versions. Packing suits dirty water where a small controlled leak is acceptable.

What is the difference between a VR pump end and a VR replacement stack?

A VR pump end is the complete pump without the motor: casing, stack, Type 1 cartridge seal and the motor mount with its thrust bearing. A replacement stack is only the hydraulic assembly inside the casing: impellers, stage housings and diffusers. Choose the stack when the casing and motor are sound and the pump has lost head; choose the pump end when the casing is damaged, the build date is unknown, or you are changing motor frame.

Which motor does a VR pump end need?

A standard NEMA C-face motor in the frame named by the PE code: PE56 = 56C, PE18 = 180TC, PE21 = 210TC, PE25 = 250TC, PE28 = 280TC, PE32 = 320TSC, PE36 = 360TSC. VR models run at 3600 RPM (2-pole) and VRL models at 1800 RPM (4-pole). Use the motor HP Franklin pairs with that stage count on the complete-pump listing. The pump end carries thrust on its own bearing, so a high-thrust motor is not required.

How do I know which VR stack fits my pump?

Read the model code and date code on the pump nameplate. The stage count and impeller trim (00, 1A or 2A) come from the model code. The coupling fit code comes from the motor frame: code 1 for 56C, 182-4TC and 213-5TC, code 2 for 254-6TC through 364-5TSC. The stacks in this collection fit pumps built September 2022 and later, date code 22J19 and later; pumps with date code 22H19 and earlier take different stack numbers.

Is the mechanical seal included with a replacement stack?

Stack assemblies cover the hydraulics only. Order the VR Series mechanical seal kit and O-ring kit for the same pump size and build date with every stack so the rebuild is complete.

What is included in a close-coupled pump-end kit?

Each kit is the complete pump end for the listed pump model, connection, seal type, speed and motor frame, supplied without the motor. It bolts to the existing close-coupled 56C, JM or JP motor. Gas-engine kits include the volute, impeller, seal and engine adapter, matched to a threaded or keyed engine shaft of a given diameter.

Do I need to trim the impeller in a pump-end kit?

Often, yes. Franklin ships HC, XS and D kits with the maximum-diameter impeller for the largest motor in the kit frame range, and AG kits are supplied untrimmed. Trim and re-balance to the original diameter or to your duty so the motor is not overloaded. We can confirm the trim from the original model and the manufacturer curve.

What warranty applies to pump ends, stacks and kits?

Franklin covers VR Series products with a limited warranty of 1 year from the date of original purchase, per the VR Series Owner’s Manual. For its close-coupled and engine-driven centrifugal lines, Franklin’s limited warranty runs 12 months from installation or 24 months from manufacture, whichever occurs first, per the FAC, FBSE/FBSEF and FACGF owner’s manuals. Full terms and conditions are in the manufacturer’s manual.

Can I rebuild a VR with a new pump end but keep my motor?

Yes, when the PE code of the pump end matches your motor frame and the motor HP and speed suit the stage count. Send us the motor nameplate and we will match the pump end order number to it.

What should I send to get the right part?

Send the pump nameplate (model code and date code), the motor or engine nameplate (frame, HP, RPM, voltage and phase), a photo of the unit, and the duty if the system has changed. Email sales@watermainsupply.com or call 1-888.510.4036.

What is the lead time?

Lead time depends on the order number and Franklin Electric production scheduling. We confirm it in writing on the quote before you order.
