the mounting plate to the foundation. Anchor bolts will be furnished by the purchaser. If required,
grout holes and vent holes shall be provided. The bottom side and sides of the mounting plate (which
will be in contact with the grout) shall be sandblasted to SSPC SP 10 and coated with epoxy primer.
The top surface (and bottom surface of pump plate) unpainted and coated with a rust inhibitor.
1. The mounting plate shall be provided with vertical levelling screws at least 13 mm (0.5 in) in
diameter and at least 150 mm (6 in) long. Vertical levelling screws shall be located adjacent to
each anchor bolt (minimum 4) location. Corners of mounting plates shall be rounded to a radius of
at least 50 mm (2 in).
2. All vertical VS6 and VS7 type pumps in hydrocarbon service shall be supplied with an independent
liner. The liner shall be designed to be installed directly in concrete and shall be robust enough to
act as the inner form for concrete, as shown in Figure I-2.
9.3.10 Single-case diffuser (VS1) and volute (VS2) pumps
Line shafting shall not be furnished with sleeves under the bearings.
9.3.13 Double-casing diffuser (VS6) and volute (VS7) pumps
ADD TO THIS CLAUSE:
9.3.13.2 The inner casings of Types VS6 and VS7 pumps shall be hydrostatically tested at 1.5 times their
MAWP.
10 Vendor’s Data
10.3 Contract Data
31.29.02.30-P6000CFP-000-PV_I.DOC
Project Variation
The dimensional outline drawing shall indicate a maximum fabrication tolerance of +/- 3 mm (1/8 in)
for pump suction and discharge nozzle face or centerline locations, referenced from the centerline of
the nearest baseplate anchor bolt hole. The same criteria applies to turbine inlet and exhaust nozzles
locations. The centerline of baseplate anchor bolt hole locations shall indicate a fabrication tolerance
of +/- 3 mm (1/8 in) from a common reference point on the baseplate.
Seller shall be required to add to his drawings all notes and data requested by Buyer including
equipment item numbers of various components, connection points, and locations, instrumentation,
and other data as required by Buyer.

Performance test curve shall be reviewed and given written approval by the Principal prior to the
pump being released for shipment.

Upon request, a list of interchangeable spare parts shall also be provided. This list shall include all
equipment furnished by the Seller for the Project as well as any Seller's existing equipment at Project
jobsite location.

Seller shall furnish lubrication data prior to issuance of the Operating, Maintenance, and Technical
Data Manual.
