Supplementary operating instructions, dismantling of mechanical seal, make Burgmann SHPV10/74-E
Pump design with one-piece lantern
1122.825/2-10
Description and Function
Balanced single-acting mechanical seal for hot water circula-
ting pump type HPH.
The spring-loaded ring 472.54 is stationary in the seal cover
471.01.
The seat ring 475.55 is locked on the shaft protecting sleeve
524.01 and rotates with the shaft.
Torque transmission between shaft and rotating seal assembly
by means of key.
Minor leakage at the seal is permissible and even desirable.
However, if leakage is in excess of 8 l/h, the seal is defective and
must be replaced.
Additional equipment:
The seal must be operated with a circulation flow via a magnetic
separator and a heat exchanger. For reliable seal operation, the
temperature in the circulation flow has to be monitored, with
early alarm signal and pump shutdown at T max. (see also sec-
tions 5.4.1 and 6.1.2, temperature monitoring of the mechanical
seal.)
Safety Instructions
The mechanical seal shall only be used within the permissible
pressure and temperature limits specified in the data sheet.
Never operate the pump in any way that could
Caution
jeopardize the safe operation of the mechanical
seal.
Within the framework of his safety concept, the operator
shall look into the consequences a possible mechanical
seal failure might have on the environment and decide whether
additional precautions have to be taken to prevent personal in-
jury.
The mechanical seal shall only be installed, operated, serviced,
removed or repaired by authorized, qualified and adequately
trained personnel.
Any person at the operator’s plant who is involved in the installa-
tion, removal, operation, commissioning and maintenance of
the mechanical seal must have read and understood the com-
plete operating instructions, or at least the relevant sections,
particularly the safety instructions. We recommend that the
user have this confirmed by the respective persons.
Any work on the mechanical seal shall only be performed
during pump shutdown and after pressure has been re-
leased.
HPH
Responsibilities for work on the mechanical seal must be
clearly defined and complied with, to avoid misunderstandings
and unclear competence for safety aspects.
Not only must the safety instructions given in the present ope-
rating instructions be complied with, but also the general safety
regulations and regulations for the prevention of accidents.
Unauthorized alterations and modifications which jeopardize
the safe operation of the mechanical seal are not permitted.
Removing the mechanical seal
It is imperative to comply with the relevant regulations for
dealing with hazardous substances and the accident
prevention regulations when removing the seal cartridge.
Should any questions or doubts arise, make sure to obtain the
necessary information before starting to dismantle the seal.
Undo hex. nuts 920.04 and carefully remove bearing bracket
lantern 344, complete with mechanical seal and shaft protec-
ting sleeve.
Undo hex. head bolts 901.21 and remove the complete station-
ary assembly (seal cover 471.01 and spring-loaded ring
472.54, springs and O-rings) as well as the complete rotating
assembly (shaft protecting sleeve 524.01 and seat ring 475.55)
from the bearing bracket lantern.
After the O-ring has been removed, the mechanical seal can be
dismantled further.
Preparations for Mechanical Seal Installation
Check the mating dimensions of the pump against the mechani-
cal seal dimensions. Seats and surfaces over which O-rings
slide must be clean. Edges must be chamfered and transitions
must be rounded off.
The direction of rotation of the drive must be as shown in the me-
chanical seal drawing.
Installation
The following rules should be observed when mounting the me-
chanical seal:
Extreme care and cleanliness are essential when installing me-
chanical seals.
The protective wrapping of the contact faces should only be re-
moved immediately before assembly takes place.
We recommend to place the shaft in vertical position when fit-
ting the mechanical seal.
Check the sliding fit of shaft protecting sleeve 524.01 on shaft
210. Note position of keyway.
Under no circumstances use force when installing a mechani-
cal seal.
 HPH
When mounting the mechanical seal, surfaces over which O-
rings slide may be wetted with water or alcohol, in order to re-
duce friction forces.
Elastomers made of EP rubber must never come
Caution
into contact with mineral oil, due to their poor
chemical resistance.
Clean the seal faces with propyl alcohol and cellulose tissues
(no cloth, no cleaning rags). Do not touch the seal faces with na-
ked fingers afterwards.
Never apply lubricants to seal faces. Make sure that the seal
faces are absolutely dry, free from dust and clean during as-
sembly.
Insert springs 477.54 and mount seat ring 472.54 with the well-
greased O-ring (412.54) and backing ring 50-3.54 in the seal
cover 471.01. The parallel pins 562.54 must engage in the ho-
les of the seat ring.
Use O-ring 412.53 to prevent the assembly from separating.
Clean shaft protecting sleeve 524.01 and place gasket 411.32
onto the corresponding diameter of the shaft protecting sleeve.
Insert the rotating assembly (shaft protecting sleeve 524.01
with mounted seat ring 475.55 and O-rings 412.52/.55) into the
bearing bracket lantern 344 in such a way that the centering
shoulder on the shaft protecting sleeve’s external diameter pre-
vents radial displacement.

Place O-ring 421.15 into the corresponding keyway in the bear-
ing bracket lantern 344.
Install the complete stationary assembly (seal cover 471.01
and spring-loaded ring 472.54 plus the necessary springs and
other small parts).
Tighten bolts 921.21 in accordance with table 1.

Slide bearing bracket lantern 344 with mounted mechanical
seal carefully onto the shaft end of the complete bearing
bracket 330 and fasten. Insert key 940.01, then check whether
the shaft can still be rotated easily by hand.

The torques given in the table are determined on the basis of a friction coefficient m = 0.12.

The torques indicated apply to the initial tightening of brand-new threads.

After repeated tightening of the threads and in case of good lubrication the values should be reduced by 15 to 20 %.

The values given in the table do not apply if general drawings or other instructions state different values.
