MH Horizontal Multistage Pumps

MH Horizontal Multistage Pumps

Proven performance. Enhanced reliability.

Franklin Electric’s MH horizontal multistage pumps provide versatile solutions for pressure boosting, HVAC systems, fertigation and industrial water applications.

The MH 3, 5 and 9 models feature improved residual air management. An innovative first stage with a priming valve and a seal housing disc with deflector help reduce air entrapment and cavitation risk, protecting the mechanical seal and supporting reliable start-up and consistent operation.

Residual air is removed both after priming and during normal operation, while the simplified casing design eliminates the need for a front filling plug.

Available in AISI 304 and AISI 316L stainless steel versions, the range includes MH 3, 5, 9, 15 and 20 models, offering flow rates up to 28 m³/h and a maximum operating pressure of 10 bar.
