Stokes 1738HC

Each Stokes1700 series mechanical booster pump combination includes a Stokes Microvac backing pump and a belt driven, horizontal flow, high vacuum Stokes 6” series mechanical booster pump. In harsh applications where chemical or particulate contamination is present, process isolation boosters are available as an option. Controls for Stokes 1700 series mechanical booster pump combination include a pressure switch, motor starters, overloads, remote booster selection switch and lights for pump running and fault indication.
