The unit handles condensate drainage from air handlers, fan coils, mini-splits, and high-efficiency furnaces where gravity drainage is not possible. It delivers a flow rate of 65 gallons per hour with a maximum shutoff head of 15 feet, making it suitable for routing condensate to a drain located above the unit. Rated at 60 watts and 115 VAC, 60 Hz, the pump draws 1 amp and operates at 1\/50 horsepower. Licensed HVAC technicians are the typical installer for this component.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe VCMA-15 fits wall-mount installation and is commonly used in residential split systems, packaged units, and ductless mini-split installations where the indoor unit lacks a direct gravity drain path. Its 1\/2-gallon reservoir collects condensate automatically and activates the pump once the float reaches the trigger level. The pump is rated to a maximum pressure of 6.5 psi and a maximum fluid temperature of 140 degrees F, covering standard HVAC condensate conditions. It is also applicable in light commercial settings such as server rooms, retail spaces, and office HVAC installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAutomatic float-activated operation with 1\/2-gallon reservoir capacity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e65 GPH flow rate with 15-foot maximum shutoff head\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/8-inch OD barbed outlet for standard condensate tubing connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlass-filled polypropylene impeller for durability in condensate service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eABS construction rated to 140 degrees F fluid temperature\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWall-mount design for space-efficient installation near the air handler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or new-install condensate removal pump for residential and light commercial HVAC systems requiring a 115 VAC automatic condensate pump with a 15-foot shutoff head.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation is performed by a licensed HVAC technician. Disconnect power to the air handler and associated equipment before servicing or installing the condensate pump. Secure the discharge line with appropriate fittings and verify the line is free of kinks or sags that could restrict flow. Follow local mechanical codes and the equipment manufacturer guidelines for condensate line sizing and routing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlow Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e: 65 gallons per hour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShutoff Head\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage\u003c\/strong\u003e: 115 VAC, 60 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAmperage\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 amp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePower Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 60 watts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHorsepower\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/50 hp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6.5 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Rating\u003c\/strong\u003e: 140 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReservoir Capacity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 gallon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutlet Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch OD barbed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImpeller Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Glass-filled polypropylene\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHousing Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: ABS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMounting Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Wall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOperation Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Automatic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 11 inches L x 5 inches W x 7 inches H\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: FRANKLIN ELECTRIC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 554401\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"FRANKLIN ELECTRIC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51467755127090,"sku":"554401","price":67.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/Franklin_554401.jpg?v=1783912521","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/franklin-electric-554401-little-giant-vcma-15-condensate-pump","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
