what is the difference between a UR pump and a FR pump?
Reply
The difference between an Uprated (UR) and Fullrated (FR) pump is the total horsepower of the pump. For example if you look at a 343240 2 hp UR pump vs a 342238 2 hp FR pump, although they are both 2hp the uprated 343240 has a Service factor (SF) of 1.1 so its total horsepower (THP) is 2.2 HP whereas the FR pump would have a Service Factor (SF) of 1.3 so its total horsepower (THP) is 2.6hp. In short, a FR pump has a higher THP than a UR pump.
