Fire Pumps

(OP)
Please help me here....I'm trying to find a listed left-handed CCW(counterclockwise)horizontal split case diesel fire pump to replace some existing pumps. NFPA 20 on Figure A.5.22(a)Horizontal Pump Shaft Rotation states that "Some diesels available in this rotation (counterclockwise) at no extra cost". Does anybody know a manufacturer who provides this type of pumps?

RE: Fire Pumps

(OP)
Sorry for the confusion...I meant counterclockwise diesel engines for the fire pumps. I already contacted ITT and they don't have a diesel engine available for this rotation.

RE: Fire Pumps

peerless???


DIESEL ENGINE DRIVEN FIRE PUMPS
The diesel engine driven fire pump price covers the pump in
cast iron bronze fitted construction, mounted on a fabricated
steel non-drip rim base and connected to an engine by a
suitable flexible coupling with coupling guard. Diesel
engines are standard with R.H. (clockwise) rotation. A
limited number of engines are available with L.H.
(counter-clockwise) rotation which requires a price addition,
refer to factory. Price additions are necessary for all
accessories, such as, fuel system, fuel tank, batteries,
mufflers, which are listed separately in Section 1510 and
engine controllers in Section 1510/1610.
