The AHR Expo is 3 days of jam packed networking, education, socializing and experiencing everything new in HVACR. The show floor will be buzzing with all that is new from Ameriflo, product demos, learning opportunities and the most recent updates from Ameriflo. Ameriflo will be showing the latest in pump tech including proprietary designs and advanced manufacturing techniques. Stop by and get the latest information on Ameriflo and their plans on market dominance.
The Ameriflo fabricated base assemblies are some of the best available in the industry. Most of the features and benefits found in these bases are usually found only in bases offered to the API industry. These bases are made of heavy wall structural steel with very high torsional rigidity designed to minimize deflection and keep items mounted in place.
All engineered bases feature milled and drilled pads under both the pump and the driver. These mounting areas ensure that soft foot problems during installation simply are not an issue. Two (2) grounding lugs are present on both short sides of the base making it very easy to ground the entire base assembly increasing safety. Base lifting lugs are installed at each corner of the base allowing for safe lifting and movement of the entire base assembly. These corner lifting lugs stop severe damage that can occur when the lugs on the pump and driver are used to lift the weight of the entire base assembly that are much higher than these were ever intended on supporting. Base leveling jackscrews are installed along the long side of the base making leveling of the entire base assembly very easy and trouble free. These base leveling jackscrews allow for fine tuning of the leveling process that simply cannot be accomplished by using traditional shims.
To aid in the alignment of the pump assembly alignment jackscrews are provided on the driver (when driven by an electric motor) or under the pump (when driven by a Diesel engine). This very simple addition to the base makes field alignment very easy & straightforward and allows for fine tuning of the alignment process that is very useful when performing very precise alignments especially when using laser alignment products.
All base assemblies have capped ends greatly increasing torsional rigidity. Nearly every other manufacturer standardizes on bent channel bases without capped ends. These bases are prone to severe deflection during transport making filed installation more time consuming and very difficult. The Ameriflo I-beam base construction is far superior to these other bent channel designs.
The two pumps featured in this short Blog include an electric motor and Diesel engine driven split case pump. These two medium 6×8-17 SC split case pumps produce 1250 GPM @ 20.5 Bar, an incredible amount of pressure generated from a single stage split case pump. Ameriflo has the most efficient and expansive split case product offered in the fire protection market today, period. The 5030 SC product line has many standard features and benefits that are simply not offered even as options by nearly every other manufacturer. The electric motor version features a WEG driver and the Diesel engine version features an Ameriflo AF6-108E 6 cylinder Diesel engine. These are heavily designed skid assemblies featuring alignment and base leveling jack screws that make field installation a breeze. Milled pads under the pump and driver only add to the overall package.
Ameriflo Diesel engines have features that the other Diesel engine manufactures simply do not have. The Diesel engine cradle is a unique and specifiable feature that virtually eliminates all Diesel engine vibration that was historically transferred to the pump and system piping. The Ameriflo Vibration Isolation Cradle (VIC) has integral engine mounts that completely isolate the Diesel engine vibration from being transferred to the pump base assembly. This is a unique and specifiable feature that no other Diesel engine manufacturer has. This VIC greatly reduces oscillations found from other Diesel engine manufacturers and allows all Ameriflo pump assemblies to operate with minimal vibration. The VIC also houses the emergency contactors, the complete cooling loop package, the heat exchanger assembly and the pre-heater equipment.
The Ameritouch digital engine controller has no “old school” gauges present anywhere on the package. Not only are these gauges inherently less accurate but are more difficult to read and prone to failure. The end user is presented with a fully digital, color touch screen interface that is state of the art! All Diesel engine parameters can be monitored from this digital interface making startup and run tests very easy. Ameriflo leverages technology to be the leader in the fire protection market.
The Diesel engine program is one of the largest in the industry with more than 30 sizes available and carry UL Listings & FM Approvals.

After over a year of intensive product development and an extremely stringent testing schedule, Ameriflo is proud to announce it’s Factory Mutual (FM) approval of the 9050 Diesel Engine program. This Factory Mutual approval covers the first 15 Ameriflo Diesel engines from 121 HP through an incredible 1207 horsepower. Speed ranges from 2950 RPM down through 1460 RPM. An additional 12 Diesel engines are going through final FM testing to have a total of 24 Diesel engines with Factory Mutual approval.
The Ameriflo Diesel engine is the most diverse and efficient Diesel engine product line available today. The Diesel engine group has spent considerable time developing blocks with a horsepower range that is simply not available from the competition. Ameriflo already has nearly 30 Diesel engines that are UL Listed and the FM approval adds to the heritage of this product line.
Ameriflo Diesel engines have features that the other Diesel engine manufactures simply do not have. The Diesel engine cradle is a unique and specifiable feature by virtually eliminating Diesel engine vibration that was historically transferred to the pump and system piping. The Diesel engine cradle also houses the emergency contractors, complete cooling loop and the Diesel engine pre-heater. The Ameriflo Vibration Isolation Cradle (VIC) has integral engine mounts that completely isolate the Diesel engine vibration from being transferred to the pump base assembly, This is a feature that no other Diesel engine manufacturer has.

The Ameritouch digital engine controller has no “old school” gauges present. The end user is presented with a fully digital, touch screen interface that is state of the art! All Diesel engine parameters can be monitored from this digital interface making startup and run tests very easy. This is yet another example of how Ameriflo is leveraging technology to be the leader in the fire protection market.
Whether you’re an exhibitor, advertiser, sponsor – or all three – AFSA40 will be time extremely well spent. To give you as much of their time as possible, we have specially designed our conference schedule to create multiple opportunities for attendees to visit the exhibition hall as well as network in more casual gatherings and events.
Ameriflo is THE market leader in leveraging technology to design, develop and manufacture the highest quality product line available in the Fire Protection industry period.

Ameriflo…..The Future Of Fire Protection
VT GEN-PAC Booster System
One of the most diverse products in the Ameriflo product line is the ability to integrate any standard fire pump (pump on a base with coupling, coupling guard and driver) into a fully integrated system. This Genesys Booster System (GEN-PAC) offers the client a fully integrated solution that makes the installation very easy.
GEN-PAC Booster Systems are available in a variety of configurations including one electric (1E), one diesel (1D), one electric + one diesel (1E+1D), two electric (2E) or two diesel (2D) configurations. Systems can be supplied in end suction (ES), vertical inline (VI), split case (SC) and vertical turbine (VT) product types. While Ameriflo has expanded their offering to include this very popular option, other fire pump manufacturers have backed out of the booster system market completely. Many current Ameriflo distributors/representatives have joined the Ameriflo group because the GEN-PAC option is needed so that they can compete in their respective markets. This additional product line gives the Ameriflo distributor/representative a complete fire protection solution and a single source of responsibility.
