Description
Maintain compact domestic-water circulation with Bell & Gossett B601S Series 60 centrifugal pump for potable-water recirculation and DHW service. Its 1/4 HP single-phase configuration uses an all-bronze, lead-free body, while the 1-inch by 1-inch by 5-1/4-inch pump size helps contractors compare the existing piping layout. NSF-372 certification provides a stated potable-water reference. Confirm voltage, flange fit, and system curve before installation.
The B601S uses a bronze impeller inside an all-bronze lead-free Series 60 body. Its single-phase motor configuration is listed for potable-water recirculation, but the supplied data does not state voltage, flow, head, RPM, seal construction, bearing design, dimensions beyond the pump size, or weight. NSF-372 certification identifies the listed compliance reference. Verify the complete electrical, hydraulic, and connection information against the manufacturer’s submittal before ordering.
