A. Centrifugal Pumps: See Note 1

All soleplate elevations are to be set in accordance with the construction

drawings. On multiple soleplate installations, one of the soleplates is
chosen as the “reference” soleplate with regard to elevation. This
SAES-G-005
A1 “reference” soleplate is usually the one under the equipment requiring
5.5
“process” connections. API 686 Ch 5 Para 3.9.3.1. For special-purpose
equipment Use Master / precision optical or laser level. API 686 Ch 5
Para 3.9.3.2

Mounting plate jackscrews shall be liberally coated with paste wax or

SAES-G-005
A2 grease to prevent grout adherence. Liquid waxes and oil are not
5.5
permitted. API 686 Ch 5 Para 3.9.1.2

Each individual soleplate level is to be set longitudinally and transversely

to within 42 micrometers per meter (0.0005 in. per ft) with no more than
130 micrometers (0.005 in.) elevation difference between any two points
SAES-G-005
A3 taken on an individual soleplate. In addition, any pair of soleplates (where
5.5
more than one soleplate is used under an individual piece of equipment)
shall be at the same elevation to within 130 micrometers (0.005 in.). API
686 Ch 5 Para 3.9.3.4

Final elevation and level of all soleplates for critical equipment shall be set
with a precision tilting level and precision scale. To balance the length of
sighting distance, the tilting level is to be set near the foundation within a 6 SAES-G-005
A4
m (20-ft) radius of all soleplates. A peg test of the instrument prior to the 5.5
start of the leveling is essential API 686 Ch 5 Para 3.9.3.6 (see Annex I of
API 686).

General-purpose equipment and ASME pump baseplate mounting

surfaces are to be leveled longitudinally and transversely to within 400 SAES-G-005
A5
micrometers per meter (0.005 in. per ft). Refer to Annex D for baseplate 5.5
leveling for horizontal centrifugal pumps.API 686 Ch 5 Para 3.9.4.4.

API pump baseplate mounting surfaces are to be leveled longitudinally

and transversely to within 250 micrometers per meter (0.003 in. per ft). SAES-G-005
A6
This may require removal of equipment to access the machined mounting 5.5
surfaces.API 686 Ch 5 Para 3.9.4.5.

For pumps having a driver rating of 750 kW (1,000 HP) or above the 31-SAMSS-004,
A7 underside of fabricated base plates are constructed with full depth cross Para. 6.3.7 Design
members under all machinery feet,

Saudi Aramco: Company General Use

 Baseplates are fully covered by a smooth deck plate. All walking surfaces
are coated with non-slip paint. All baseplates, excluding sub-bases, for 31-SAMSS-004,
A8 Design
permanent installation in onshore facilities are grouted. The grout holes Para. 6.3.9
must be accessible for grouting with the pump and driver mounted.

The outside corner of the base plate in contact with the grout have at least SAES-G-005
A9 Design
50 mm (2 in.) radius in the plan view, (API 610 Para. 6.3.10). 5.5

For offshore installations, the base plate and pedestal support assembly 31-SAMMS-004,
A10
are sufficiently rigid to be mounted without grouting. Para. 6.3.13
