the accessory manufacturer's instructions.

Following these recommendations will help ensure that the pumps will operate
without problems and give long, trouble free service.
V.

INSTALLATION
A.

Location of Pump
The pump should be placed as near the liquid source as possible,
avoiding valves and elbows whenever possible.

B.

Piping
Guidelines for piping are given in the "Hydraulic Institute Standards" and
should be reviewed prior to pump installation. All piping should be
supported independently of, and line up naturally with, the pump flanges.
NEVER DRAW PIPING INTO PLACE BY USE OF FORCE AT THE
FLANGED CONNECTION OF THE PUMP.
WEMCO recommends that flexible couplings or expansion joints be
installed in the suction and discharge piping as near the pump as possible
(to allow for temperature and pressure expansion) so that there will be no
strain on the pump casing.

WARNING
SUCH STRAINS COULD RESULT IN STRUCTURAL FAILURE LEADING TO
INJURY.

To obtain maximum available suction head, the suction line should be as


direct and as short as possible, avoiding elbows. If elbows must be used,

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
a long radius type is preferred. It is important to avoid any high point in a
suction line in which air may accumulate and cause loss of prime. For the
same reason, it is important to have the suction line airtight when suction
lift exists.
The suction pipe must be installed so that no air pockets can form, and the
pipe must be level or slope upward to the pump intake. To prevent
excessive losses, the suction piping must never be smaller in diameter
than the pump suction, and preferably one pipe size larger. Eccentric
reducers should be used on the suction side, with the flat side on top as
shown in Figure 1. Use as few fittings as possible, and when elevating to
any height, go vertically upward from the pump, then horizontally to the
point of discharge.

FIGURE 1
Recommended

FIGURE 2
Not Recommended

Suction conditions such as liquid temperature, altitude above sea level


and specific gravity should be compensated for by proper selection of the
suction line.
The pump should not operate on a suction lift when pumping liquid with
entrained air or gas. Check valves should not be used in the suction line
and gate valves should be installed with the stem horizontal to prevent
trapping air or gas. Suction valves must be fully open during operation.
C.

Installation on Foundation
The pump and drive assembly should be placed on the foundation with the
coupling halves disconnected. On belt drive units, the belts may remain on
the sheaves. The alignment operation must be completed before the
coupling is reassembled. The baseplate should be supported on metal

wedges or blocks as illustrated in Figures 3 and 4. The support wedges or
blocks should be placed close to the anchor bolts.
Adjust the metal wedges or blocks around the base edge until the base is
level. Suction and discharge flanges should be checked by means of a
level and coupling alignment should be checked with a straightedge.
Corrections may be made for flange and coupling level or plumb by shims
under the pump or motor.

Grouting

E.

Evenly adjust all anchor bolts, but not too firmly, after the first alignment
has been completed. The baseplate can then be grouted to the
foundation. All voids under the baseplate must be filled with grout. It is
desirable to grout all wedges and blocks in place. Anchor bolts should not
be fully tightened until the grout has hardened, approximately 48 hours
after pouring.
Connection of Piping
The initial alignment of the pump and driver should be completed before
the piping is connected to the pump. After the grout has thoroughly set
and the anchor bolts have been tightened, connect the discharge and
suction pipes to the pump flanges with gaskets in place and tighten firmly.
Make sure the pipe flanges are parallel and in line so that no piping loads
are transmitted to the pump.

GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
B.

Start-up
1.

After the unit is aligned, the bearings lubricated, the packing or seal
flush lines connected and all flanges are tightened, the suction
valve may be opened. After the seal chamber is filled with liquid,
jog motor to check rotation. If the rotation is incorrect, reverse any
two leads on a three phase motor and recheck rotation.
A positive suction head should be provided, but if the liquid level is
below the pump the pump must be primed before start-up.
On start-up, an ammeter should be used on the motor to check for
overload. If the unit is direct connected, the discharge valve may be
throttled should the motor be overloaded. If it appears the system
head is lower than rated, the impeller may be trimmed to meet the
lower head (except Model C). After trimming, the impeller must be
balanced before installing. If the unit is belt driven, the pump speed
may be lowered to get the proper operating point.
The discharge valve may be throttled to provide varying capacities,
but the suction valve should remain fully open at all times during
operation.
If trouble is experienced upon initial or subsequent operation, refer
to the Operating Problems section of this manual to diagnose and
correct the defect.

WARNING
DO NOT OPERATE THE PUMP AGAINST A CLOSED DISCHARGE VALVE. DO
NOT OPERATE THE PUMP UNLESS THE PUMP IS FILLED WITH LIQUID.

2.

Make an additional check of alignment between the pump and


driver after a few hours of operation. Repeat this check after one
week of initial run.

WARNING
WHEN CHECKING ALIGNMENT, OR PERFORMING ANY WORK ON THE UNITS,
ELECTRICAL SERVICE MUST BE LOCKED OUT WITH AN APPROVED LOCKOUT
AND KEY. FAILURE TO LOCKOUT EQUIPMENT MAY RESULT IN INJURY.

Product Specification

Definition of terms for machine components


Definition of terms:
The Huber RakeMax is used to clean stationary bar racks.
The screen consists of the following components:

Stationary bar rack with apron and discharge chute


Two drive chains with screen rakes
Upper chain bearing with chain wheels, drive with overload protection and drive shaft
Bottom chain bearing with chain wheels
Screen frame for channel installation

The Huber RakeMax Screen consists in a stationary bar rack mounted between the two
screen frames. The bar rack is normalyl installed at an angle of 75. The bar rack consists
of individual flat bars and is cleaned by the rake when necessary. The screen rakes are
fixed to the peripheral chains which can be re-tensioned via a special chain tensioning unit.
The number of screen rakes depends on the amount of screenings and the specific
application. The chains are driven by two chain wheels mounted on the drive shaft.
Screenings are transported upwards along the apron which comes after the bar rack. A
hinged wiper pushes the screenings from the rake shelf over the discharge chute into a skip
or conveyor.
The following drawing gives an overview of the individual machine parts.

Product Specification

Functional description
The Huber RakeMax Screen is installed into the channel at an angle of approx. 75. While
the wastewater passes through the bar rack, solids are retained in the rack. The retained
solids blind the screen basket surface, causing thus an additional filter effect. The screen
drive starts at a defined difference in height. While the cleaning rakes, which are driven by
the peripheral chains, travel upwards they transport the screenings upwards along the apron
which comes after the bar rack. A hinged wiper pushes the screenings from the rake shelf
over the discharge chute into a skip or conveyor, or for example into a wash press.

1.4

Functional description of (partly optional) components

1.4.1

Level control system


Since the level control system is part of the electrical switchboard and control panel, it is only
part of Huber supply if the machine is ordered complete with the electrical control panel.
Refer to the control philosophy supplied under Section 4 (Project Drawings) for additional
details.
The operator is responsible to prevent metallic dry objects from falling onto the dry plant. In
explosive areas plant control must be via level control to prevent dry running of the plant.

1.4.2

Detection of the position of screen rakes


Optionally the screen can be equipped with a detection of the position of screen rakes.
Whenever a rake passes the wiper, the proximity switch is activated and gives a signal to the
electrical control.
The screen start is caused by water level control or some customer supplied starting signal.
The screen drive is running as long as the signal of the level control system continues, plus
an additional run-on time, which is determined as follows:
After the level control signal stops, the screen keeps running until a rake passes the wiper
plus a free programmable period, until the rake reaches a preset position. This period has to
be adjusted individually depending on specific site conditions. In this case, the general runon time is not applied.
The detection of the rake position can be useful for controlling a following aggregate (e.g.
wash press), i.e. the following aggregate can be started after a set number of screenings
discharges.

5.1

Acceptable environmental conditions


The machine is manufactured for installation in a building as specified by the customer.
Frost protection:
Machines without a casing must not be operated in winter due to the danger of freezing.
Appropriate measures must be taken (e.g. complete emptying) to ensure that the machine
cannot freeze.
Protection against dust and water:
As the atmosphere at the installation place is permanently humid, the equipment is designed
to resist these conditions. All components in contact with water and solids are made of
stainless steel which is insusceptible to moisture and wetness.
The gear motors are made for IP 65 and are therefore protected against permeation of dust
and spray water from any direction.

5.2

Site requirements
Cover all channel sections which do not need to be accessible for machine installation
and fix a railing along open channel sections. The regulations of DIN EN 294 Safe distances
preventing upper limbs reaching dangerous areas and corresponding standards must be
observed.
There must be enough space available around the machine for repair and maintenance work.
Required minimum distance to the machine or railing: 1 m (lateral, in front of and behind the
machine)
Emergency bypass
An emergency bypass is absolutely necessary for one-line plants, such as for the event of a
power failure or fault.
The complete hydraulic conditions of the sewage treatment works must be taken into
account for dimensioning of the emergency bypass. It is important that the emergency
bypass overflow weir lies approx. 50 mm below max. water level (see installation drawing) to
protect the screen.
Recesses in one of the side walls of the channel are required to place the level probes 0.5
1.5 m in front of and behind the machine. These recesses must have a length of 150 mm
and a depth of 120 mm and reach down to the channel bottom.

Maintenance

9.2.1

Inspection of screwed connections


Check all screwed connections regularly, at least at the time of annual inspection, if they are
tight. Replace all self-locking nuts that were unlocked for the purpose of maintenance or
repair, otherwise used nuts may get loose and cause damage.

9.2.2

Rake maintenance
Monthly check the adjustment of the rake towards the bar rack and apron and make
corrections, if necessary. The rake tines must mesh with the rack bars and slide along the
apron both without direct contact. Check also the wiper function if screenings are completely
removed from the rake.

9.2.3

Maintenance of drive motor


Operating media and lubricant replacement
The screen is equipped with a gear motor, the technical data and required lubricant amounts
of which can be taken from the attached motor data sheet. The required lubricant amount is
additionally specified on the identification plate. If two amounts are specified, the first refers
to the main gearing while the second refers to the intermediate gearing.
Separate operating instructions for the gear motor are attached in the appendix. They
include a list of permissible types of lubricant.
Example: BP gearbox oil: Energol GR-XP220
Under normal operational conditions it is recommended to replace the lubricant after approx.
15000 operation hours. Independent of the operation time, lubricant replacement is
recommended after 2-3 years at the latest.

9.2.4

Maintenance schedule
The screen is designed to minimise maintenance even under difficult operation conditions.
Individual units for which no specification is provided are lubricated for life.

Maintenance and Repair

Chain tension
In our factory the chain is tightened in a way that the chain bears on the rear chain track. If
the chain is tightened too much, it moves away from the chain track towards the sprocket.

Correct chain tension

Wrong chain tension

As the chain may elongate during operation, chain tension has to be checked quarterly, if
necessary the chain has to be tightened. For tightening release the screws of the chain
tension device on both sides of the screen frame. Retighten the nuts on the threaded rods on
both sides, make sure that the chain still bears on the rear chain track.

Tighten the chain in small steps!


Do never tighten the chain too much!
