IMPORTANT NOTE, pee SECTION | GENERAL INFORMATION & DESCRIPTION .. SECTION I DISASSEMBLY. SECTION Ill INSPECTION AND REPAIR SECTION IV ASSEMBLY .. SECTION V PARTS LISTIMPORTANT NOTE FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY CAUSE SERIOUS PER- SONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE. STUDY THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL, ‘The descriptions and instructions included in this manual cover the standard design of the equipment and any common deviations when possible. This book does not cover all design details and variations nor doesit provide for every possible contingency which may be encountered. When information cannot be found in this book, contact the nearest representative Do not operate this equipment other than in accordance with the instructions contained in this manual. This equipment. (or a prototype) has been shop tested and found satisfactory for the conditions for which it was sold, ‘The following instructions should be read completely before starting to install the pump. This equipment is capable of ‘extended trouble-free operation when properly applied, installed and maintained. These instructions present the basic information and methods required for proper installation and maintenance of turbine pumps ofthe sizeand typeindicated Con the front cover. Floway Pumpsstandard practiceis to ship close coupled pumps assembled. Where long pump lengths, shipping limitations, handling limitations and headroom limitations prevent complete assembly, we will ship the pump subassembled. Itis the responsibility of the installer to ask for assistance should it be required to properly assemble and install the pump. CAUTION: The equipment supplied can cause serious personal injury or death if mishandled and extreme care is not exercised in the operation of the equipment. NO ONE SHOULD EVER BE ALLOWED NEAR THE SUCTION OR OPEN DISCHARGE OF THE PUMP DURING OPERATION. A double custody lock should be installed on circuit breaker before anyone should be allowed to do any checking, maintenance or other work on the equipment. If the unit is supplied from the factory with OSHA approved coupling guards they must be kept installed at all times during operation to prevent injury to personnel.SECTION | GENERAL INFORMATION AND DESCRIPTION 1-1. GENERAL INFORMATION ‘There are two basic methods of lubricating the lineshaft of turbine pumps which alters the bowl assembly arrangement accordingly. These are: 1. Open lineshaft construction uses the pumped fluid for lubrication. ‘The lineshaft and bearings are “open” to the pumped fluid and depend on this fluid for bearing lubrication. This construction is often referred to as, “water lubricated” since waters the most common. lubricant, THIS. MANUAL IS WRITTEN TO COVER THIS TYPE CONSTRUCTION. fig, L1. BOWL ASSEMBLY GENERAL CONSTRUCTION OPEN LINESHAFT TYPE 2. Enclosed fineshaft construction wherein an enclosing tube is placed over the lineshaft and lubricants are supplied to the lineshaft bearings thru the enclosing ube. A SEPARATE INSTRUCTION MANUAL IS. AVAILABLE COVERING THIS CONSTRUCTION, 1-2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION The bowl assembly consists of the following basic ‘components: 1. SUCTION CASE oF SUCTION BELL - is the inlet of the pump. The suction case is provided with tapered threads for connecting a suction pipe or threaded strainer to it. The suction bell has a flared entrance and is preferred for sump applications; clip-on type strainers are available for attaching to the bell. Both ‘ase and bell house a grease packed bearing with a sand collar over the top ofthe bearing to keep out abrasives. SUCTION BELL. SUCTION CASE AIG. 12 TYPES OF BOWL SUCTION PIECES 2, BOWLS Two types of bow! are used in bow! assemblies - intermediate and top. single stage bowl assembly wil utilize atop bowl only, this bow! girects the fluid from the impeller into the discharge case. A multiple stage assembiy.will contain one or more intermediate bows and one top bowl at the top of the “stack”. All bowls contain an impeller mounted on the shaft and a bearing lubricated by the fluid being pumped. The top bow! (throttle) bearing on all models except 18MK and 20MK will extend into the bottom of the discharge case.3. IMPELLERS - Two types of impellers are available - ‘semi-open” or “enclosed”. The arrangement of the bow! assembly is Klentical with ether type requiring only that the intermediate bowls and suction belt (or case) be designed to provide sealing surfaces for the type impeller used. ‘SEMLOPEN TYPE IMPELLER ENCLOSED TYPE IMPELLER Fig. 3. TYPES OF IMPELLERS 4. DISCHARGE CASE - is the connecting piece between the top bow! and column pipe. All cis charge cases contain a “Discharge Case Bearing” at the top. The 18MK and 20MK units also contain a ‘second bearing at the bottom. 8. BOWL SHAFT -isa one piece shatt extending from the suction bell (or case) thru the intermediate and top bowls and thru the discharge case where itis connected by a threaded coupling to the lineshaft and hence to the surface mounted driver. The impellers are mechanically connected to the umpshaft by means of tapered lock collets. The [pumpshaft is supported above and below each impeller by bearings - extra long bearings being ‘employed at top and bottom. 1-3, CAUSES FOR REDUCED. PERFORMANCE Before pulling the pump bow! from the well the Installa- tion and Operation Manual should be reviewed for causes of reduced performance not related to the condition of the bow! assembly. Some of the possible ‘causes of reduced performance could be: 1, Incorrect lateral adjustment. (This is especially crtical with units utiizing sem-open impellers.) 2. Well conditions such as gas or air in the water. 3. Change in operating conditions such as increased pumping water level or increased discharge head requirements. . 4, Slow motor speed due to overload, low voltage or low ‘frequency. 5. Incorrect direction of rotation. 6. Strainer clogged or suction “sanded in*. 7. Inadequate submergence of pump suction. After the pump bowls have been pulled but before to the shop for repairs, check the bottom impeller for foreign material such as rocks or wood chips. Also check the strainer for obstructions.SECTION I DISASSEMBLY Nel. GENERAL Floway bowl assemblies are designed for mi tenance; frequency of required maintenance will depend on severity of service, accumulate operating hours, and ‘caregiven the unit during operation. Periodic performance. checks are the best method of determining when repairs should be made. A significant change in the sound of the running pump or an increase in vibration may indicate the need for repairs 1-2, SHOP REQUIREMENTS Shop area should be sufficient to lay the parts out in order of disassembiy. Parallel stee! or wooden rails are recom- ‘mended for cradling the bowl assembly although repairs can be effected on a flat bench or floor area of sufficient length to support the complete bowl assembly. The area should be kept clean through-out the repairs - remember this is a close toleranced, high speed machine and should be handled as such, 1-3. TOOLS ‘A good mechanics tool box will supply most ofthe tools required. The following should be available: Hammers (bothhardand soft), screwdriver, allenwrenches, cchain tongs, open or box wrenches, fine flat file, fine triangular file, emery cloth, wire brush, Il-4, SPECIAL TOOLS Acollet driver for installing and removing the impeller lock collets is the only special tool required for bowl assembly repairs. This tool fits snugly over the shaft and is hand ‘operated, the male end being used to seat the collet while the female end is used to knock the impeller off the collet. UI-S. DISASSEMBLY - FLANGED PUMP BOWLS Figure 1-2 illustrates the parts of flanged pump bow! assemblies in sequence of disassembly. CAUTION: Protect machined surfaces from burrs and scrapes which could cause mis-alignment on re-assembly. In dismantling a bow! assembly for repair, itis advisable to ‘mark the parts so they may be re-assembled in the same sequence. vom [ener | ___ DNENSORS RINTES ea 2 © ole ax ox 80 1. | Se eee BRT em |e | FT MT © [ew RES wc | 102 | HA [AB | 6m [1B [ae BBE OTs no) 3G [LOR Tre | BI [ee FRE HOOK [sie | BRE | 28 [oon | [te sex, roe vouw | ave | $0 [2B | MB [aw iN 70K zine | $88 | 348 | v0 | SRB] ste Fig. lel.

(__") 14, To remove sand collar loosen two set screws located 90 degrees apart and slide sand collar offshaft. II-6, ALTERNATE DISASSEMBLY METHOD Occasionally a bow assembly will become “locked” due to foreign materials or seizure of parts in such a way that the above method of disassembly cannot be used. The Floway pump bowl can also be disassembled from the suction end as follows: 1. Follow steps 1 thru 4 above. 2. Remove suction bell (or case) cap screws. 3. Slide suction bell (or case) off shaft. 4. Measure and record sand collar location in relation to end of shaft. (__") 10 5. Loosen two set screws located 90 degrees apart and slide sand collar off shaft. 6. Slide collet driver onto shaft - male end toward impeller. Strike impeller collet sharply with collet driver.

INSPECTION AND CLEANING ‘After disassembly, all components of the bow! assembly should be thoroughly cleaned and examined for physical defects. The following components should be inspected for wear, corrosion and damage: 1. Impellers - check water passageways for signs of ‘damage from abrasion or corrosion, check impeller jrts against “as new” dimension shown in Figure itt. 2. Shaft check shaft for pitting and wear, “as new" dimensions are shown in Figure Ill-1. Check for straightness - shaft must be straight within .005 total indicator reading 3. Bowls - check water passageways for signs of damage from abrasion or corrosion, check impeller seat against “as new" dimension shown in Figure il-t. 4. Bearings - check all bearings for total clearance over the shaft diameter. It is recommended that all bearings indicting wear be replaced. The following indicates suggested maximum diametrical clearance over existing shaft diameter: 1" through 1-3/4" shaft -.020" clearance 1-15/16" through 2-7/16" shaft -.025" clearance ra a [Potemmere marr onan enw Heo" F hee Fig. ill-1.

Order replacement parts as indicated in Section V. CAUTION: when repairing a bow! assembly that has been in service for several years, the physical condition or strength of all parts such as cap screws, bowls and bow! threads must be carefully checked. CAUTION: when attempting to re-work any part extreme care must be taken to maintain alignment of, mating parts and “as new" tolerances. ‘A. REPLACING BEARINGS. Replacement bearings are furnished “to size” for press {iting into their respective bores with 2 .001" to .003" interference fit if the bearing bore is heavily scarred or corroded the part should be replaced or reworked to provide a true bore for the bearing B. REPLACING SHAFT ‘Shaft damage is usually best corrected by replacing the shaft. If an attempt is made to re-build the shaft, the ‘©.D. must be held within the tolerance shown in Figure lik1 and straight within .005" total indicator reading. Due tothe possibilty of intorim damage, replacement shafts should always be checked for straightness before installing,C. REPAIRING ENCLOSED IMPELLER AND BOWL, ‘SEAL SURFACES. Enclosed impelier skirt and bow! seal surface wear can be corrected by installing wear rings if the damage is not excessive. This is usually accomplished by turing the impelter skirt to obtain a smooth surface and then boring the bow! and installing wear rings on either, or both, surfaces. If the original unit was furnished with either bow or impeller (or both) wear rings, these should be removed completely and replaced, MPELLER IMPELLER Sows or Suction Fig. Ill-3. REPAIRING ENCLOSED IMPELLER AND BOWL SEAL SURFACES When wear rings are installed on the impeller itis recommended that a shrink fit be utilized - the interfer- ‘ence should be heavy to prevent slippage, 0.010" on the ‘smaller units and up to 0.015" to 0.020" on the larger sizes. Sufficient heat is then applied to the wear ring to ‘expand it and allow the wear ring to drop over the impeller. When wear rings ate installed in the bowl a .003" to .005" press fit should be used. The wear ring can be installed by carefully tapping into place. A wooden block should be used to protect the wear ring. B D. REPAIRING SEMI-OPEN IMPELLER SEAT ‘Semi-open impeller and bow! seat wear can be cor- rected by refacing the surfaces if the damage is not, excessive. Depending on the type and extent of wear it may only be necessary to reface one surface. After ‘efacing, the two surfaces must be parallel to each other and concentric to the shaft centerline, Fig. Ill-4, REPAIRING SEMI-OPEN IMPELLER SEAT li. LUBRICATION Re-pack suction bearing with insoluble grease such as Marfax #2. Lubricate all bearings and impeller skirts with clean grease or oil, Thoroughly clean all bolts, nuts, threaded connections, and flanges and paint with white lead and oil, or pipe joint compound.SECTION IV ASSEMBLY Assembly ofthe unit is basically the reverse of disas- sombly. Before proceeding with assembly, clean thoroughly and check all threads, registers and mating faces for burs. Clean up wit file where required. Lubricate as outiined in paragraph ll4, Its important thatthe lower sand collar and first impeller are properly located on the shaft since the shaft projection is deter- mined by this. CAUTION: cieantiness and proper tubrica- ton are very important since one small chip, burr or ‘one dry bearing can be cause for re-doing the whole job. Assembly procedure is as follows: ‘The parts reference numbers refer to Figure 1-2 (Pages 8 and 9). 1. Locate sand collar on shaft and lock in positon with the two set screws. The sand collar should be located in the same position as foundwhendisassembled and recorded (see page 6). Ifthe send collar location was not recorded ‘efer to Figure 1V-1 for standard dimension.

Check shait closely for nicks or burrs - smooth with ‘emery cloth as required 3. Check shait for straightness - shaft must be straight within .005* total indicator reading. Figure IV-2 indicates a recommended method for checking shaft straightness. If the shaft is not straight it must be straightened or replaced. Ifthe deflection is gradual “ ‘over a considerable length the shaftcan usually be straightened by supporting on two blocks straddling the crooked section and applying pressure to the high side to deflect the shaft in the opposite direction. Ifthe shaft has a sharp crook (dog-leg) it is recommended that the shaft be replaced since the shaft will not always remain straight even if satisfactorily straightened.

NOTE: Semi-Open impeller pumps require a 1/8" ‘spacer be inserted between the sand collar and bearing housing. Install the ie down bolt (1/2" N.C.) thru the bottom of the ‘suction bell (or case) and thread into tapped hote in end ‘of shaft as illustrated in Figure 1V-3. Tighten the tle «down bolt enough to hold the sand collar firmly against the bearing housing or spacer.
