The balance of the manual describes the maintenance procedures for the specific
type of seal involved.
Maintenance for a sealed gear pump is minimal. Periodic lubrication of the packing
and tightening of the gland screws and fluid in the double seal loop are the major
maintenance items. When the gland screws cannot stop the packing from leaking
excessively, or the mechanical seal starts to leak, or a decrease in head is observed, repair is
necessary.
1)
Remove the coupling guard and disconnect the flexible coupling.
2)
Disconnect the pump's center housing (21) from the piping and remove the pump.
3)
Remove the gland screws (16), lock washers (19) and the gland (17).
Note: For the 312, H12 and 314 go to step 12.
