CHECK UPON ARRIVAL
Your pump was carefully checked at our shops prior to shipment to assure its
meeting the high standards required by the specifications.
It is suggestedthe pump be inspectedupon arrival and that any irregularitiesarising
due to shipping be reported immediatelyto the carrier.
CARE DURING STORAGE
If it is necessary to store the pump any length of time before installation, find a
location where it will be protected from unfavorableweather.
The nozzle covers provided with the pump should be left in place during storage.
RUST PREVENTIVE
Internals parts of pumps and bearing housing are protected prior to shipment by
flushing with thin polar type rust preventive.
Parts on parts orders are protected with thin film polar type rust preventive.
Take all possible care not to contaminateyour system.
FOUNDATION
Experience has shown that foundations made of concrete are the most suitable.
Vibration from other machinery as well as the building is reduced to a minimum
when the foundations are massive and are isolated by means of a construction joint.
The elevation drawing, which is furnished in advance of pump shipment, provides all
necessary anchor bolt information.
EXTERNAL LUBRICATION
The pump stuffing box is designedwith a 1/2" pipe tap. This connection should be
piped to a clean fresh water supply for use as lubricating liquid. The lubricating
requirementsare 5 GPM at 15 to 20 PSIG.
A hand regulating valve should be installed in the line, close to the pump, to
control lubricating liquid.
Inject lubricating liquid into the pump ten to fifteen minutes before start-up.

INSTALLATION OF PUMPINGUNIT
1. Remove bracing and covers that were used for shipping purposes.
2. Rig unit with slings as shown in sketch.
3. Raise unit with hoists raise pump into a vertical position.
4. Lower unit into pit and make up foundation bolting.
5. Make up piping connection as shown on general arrangementdrawing.

OPERATION
Step 1
Turn on lubricating water to
stuffing box extension (264). (See
TAP A on general arrangement
drawing).
A. The stu ffing box extension
contains a connection for water
lubricating for cutless bearings in
the inner column. A 3/4" pipe tap
is provided to supply clean fresh
water before starting and during
operation of pump. (5 GPM @ 15
to 20 PSIG).
NOTE
Fresh clean water must be injected
into this line.
STARTING
Step 1
Pump and piping should be fully
primed.
Step 2
If not fully primed low voltage
start, flywheel, venting and longer
motor starts should be employed.
Check valves should be placed as
close to the water level as possible.
Always use partially open valve.
Step 3
Check suction and discharge to
assure not plugging exists.
Step 4
Check all automatic valving for
proper function including rate of
opening and closing.
•340
OPERATING CHECKS
Check ammeter reading. A reading
that is too high might be caused
by:
A. Condenser syphon not primed
(condenser water boxes not full of
water).
B. Closed valve or other
obstruction in the piping system.
C. Pump rotor set too low.
STOPPING
Step 1
Close valves slowly to within 10
percent of travel stop motor
close valve.
Step 2
Provide vacumn breakers for
possible power failure at top of
condenser, discharge of pump and
other critical areas.
Step 3
Selective check valves should be
employed to prevent sudden
closeing and subsequent water
hammer.
Step 4
Sudden stops are very severe since
the mass of liquid continues in
motion causing column separation,
high vacumn and large pressure
intensities.

INSPECTION OF PARTS
Wire brush and clean all pump parts.
Mount each section of the shaft on rollers or "V" blocks at coupling bearing or
impeller areas. Indicated runout at any of these three locations should not exceed
.005". Maximum allowable runout at any otehr area of shaft shall not exceed .015"
+ .001" per foot of shaft length.
Inspect impeller ring (4) and casing ring (6). These rings are renewable.To remove
grind welds and cut the rings and remove from fits.

To replace the impeller ring (4) heat to approximately 250 degrees F. and place on
fit.

Tack weld ring in place.

'Mike" rings for roundnessand clearances.
Ring clearanceis .022" to .026"
Inspect and clean all journal areas.

Inspect the impeller and casing for cracks.
