These instructions apply to both types. General information Symbols used in this document The HS pump can be driven by an electric motor or another type of driver. In the following we assume Receiving the product that the pump is driven by an electric motor.
We recommend that you install the pump on a agent at once. concrete foundation which is heavy enough to Bolts for HS bare shaft pumps have US provide permanent and rigid support for the entire threads for which inch tools are required.

Checking soft foot on pump and motor mm above the concrete foundation, and support A pump or a motor having a soft foot can be the base frame by means of blocks and shims, compared to sitting down at a table and finding that both at the anchor bolts and midway between the table rocks when someone leans on it.

4. Starting up the product 4.2 Priming The startup procedure for the pumps has four steps: If not primed properly, the pump will not 1. Prestart checks. See section 4.1 Prestart checks. deliver liquid. 2. Priming. See section Priming. 3. Starting. See section Startup.
Open systems where the liquid level is below the 4.3 Startup pump inlet (suction lift systems) Make sure that the pump is filled with Fill the inlet pipe and pump with liquid and vent them liquid. The pump must not run dry. before the pump is started.
4.4 Final alignment Parallel alignment - horizontally Make the final alignment by shimming the motor only. 1. Let the pump run until it has reached its operating temperature under normal operating conditions (approximately 1 hour). 1. Turn the motor and pump shaft to 270 ° (9 2.
Angular alignment - vertically 4.5 Greasing the grid coupling Pack the spaces between and around the grid with as much lubricant as possible and wipe off the excess lubricant so that it is flush with the top of the grid. See section 8.1.3 Lubrication.
4. Rotate the shaft two turns every two weeks to prevent corrosion of the bearing surfaces and the stuffing box or shaft seal faces due to moisture. Fig. 19 How to lift and handle the HS pumps Fig. 20 How to lift and handle the HS bare shaft pumps...
6.3 Identification The type designation and rating information of 6.1 Applications Grundfos horizontal split case pumps are stated on the nameplate. See fig. 21. The type designation Grundfos HS horizontal split case pumps are includes model number, size and type.

10. Fault finding the product. Report immediately to the supplier that you cannot If you want Grundfos to service the pump, contact remedy the defects. Grundfos with details about the pumped liquid, etc. before you return the pump for service. Otherwise Grundfos can refuse to accept the pump for service.

8.1.2 Frequency of inspections 8.1.3 Lubrication Carry out inspections in accordance with the Pump bearings maintenance table below. Pump bearings are lubricated prior to delivery. Depending on operating and environmental We recommend relubricating intervals of 2000 conditions together with a comparison of previous operating hours.
Grid coupling CAUTION A grid coupling must be regreased at intervals. Hot or cold surface Normally, the interval is one year, but it can be shorter if the environment is aggressive or the Minor or moderate personal injury operating conditions are harsh. Use the same grease - Make sure that the escaping water does for the coupling as for the ball bearings.
10. Fault finding the product DANGER Electric shock Death or serious personal injury - Before you remove the terminal box cover and before you remove or dismantle the pump, make sure that the power supply has been switched off and that it cannot be accidentally switched Faults Causes...
Page 23
Faults Causes The pump delivers no liquid. The pump does not deliver enough liquid. The pump does not create enough pressure. The pump loses liquid after running for a short time. The pump consumes too much power. The motor is overloaded. Vibrations.

Extend the inlet pipe so that the risk of sucking air is eliminated. deeply enough. Check with Grundfos if you can use a larger impeller. If not, The impeller diameter is too small. reduce the outlet pipe friction losses. But be careful not to seriously overload the motor.
11. Technical data 11.1 Operating conditions 11.1.1 Ambient temperature and altitude The ambient temperature and the installation altitude are important factors for the motor life, as they affect the life of the bearings and the insulation system. If the ambient temperature or the pump installation altitude exceeds the values below, the motor must not be fully loaded due to the risk of overheating.
