Bell & Gossett B601S Series 60 Centrifugal Pump 1/4HP

B&G 172704LF Series 60 Model B601S 1/4 HP Pump

The Bell & Gossett 172704LF (Series 60, Model B601S) is a premium All-Bronze (B), Lead-Free centrifugal pump engineered to facilitate safe and silent fluid movement in aggressive potable water systems. Its all-bronze construction is calibrated to neutralize the oxidative effects of oxygenated water, providing superior resistance to the pitting and scaling that degrade standard iron-bodied pumps. By utilizing the legendary Series 60 three-piece architecture, this unit facilitates consistent thermal distribution across domestic plumbing networks, ensuring long-term structural integrity and water safety.

Featuring a quiet-operating 1/4 HP Single Phase (S) motor, the 172704LF executes precise torque delivery via a dedicated bearing assembly that is isolated from the pump volute. The motor is engineered to sustain integrity during continuous-duty cycles, utilizing an oil-lubricated bearing frame to eliminate mechanical noise. By leveraging a precision-ground shaft and a flexible spring coupling, this configuration eliminates mechanical vibration and stabilizes rotational frequency, providing an exceptionally quiet and reliable solution for residential DHW service.
