    An angular misalignment of 0.1° corresponds to approximately. 0.2 mm deviation/100 mm. The coupling and alignment shall be selected not to transmit any ax- ial or radial loads on the shaft ends. IMO AB standard Fig. 2 Strainer couplings shall have a distance between the coupling halves as per table, fig 4.

    When handling liquids which may involve deviation/100 mm. fire hazard, appropriate precautions to avoid danger are to be taken. x = y - t Fig. 3 Alignment of the IMO AB standard coupling Outer diameter Distance between Outer diameter Distance between...

    In some mounting arrangements the pump may not retain the liquid at stand still. In such installations the Fig. 7 Deaeration suction pipe should be arranged so it forms a liquid trap together with the pump, keeping the pump half filled with liquid. www.imo.se...

    All systems with screw pumps must be equipped with a pressure relief valve installed immediately adjacent to the pump. In the standard versions of IMO AB low pressure pumps, this pressure relief valve is an integral part of the pump to protect the system against excess pressure.

    If the protecting cover steel net on the pumps frame that connects the pump and the electrical motor to each other has been removed do NOT forget to put it back as the rotating coupling can cause seriously personal injuries. www.imo.se...
