Because, operational conditions which are given in purchase order are considered at material selection and trial. SEMPOMP , does not accept any warranty conditions for all kind of changes and repair operations which are performed by user and unauthorized people.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - You should absolutely obey the following safety instructions. - Never touch the pump and pipes having temperature more than 80 ºC. Necessary precautions should be taken for warning users. (E.g Warning signs and signboards) - Never operate pump in reverse direction. - Do not walk over pump or pipes which are connected to pump.
This series of pumps do not have any shape and appearance difference, technical differences are given below. *TKF-K SERIES PUMPS have triphase and monophase motors , horizontal shafted, radial separable scroll cased, single staged, suction from edge, have closed impeller, monoblock, frame coupling connected, can be installed from behind and they are centrifugal pumps.

Motor Options (Optional) : Special Voltage Special Frequency SHIPPING of PUMPS - Check whether all materials in delivery list are sent. - If there is damage during shipping please notify SEMPOMP Shipping Department and Transportation company. - If there are missing materials, immediately inform SEMPOMP Shipping Department.
CARRYING General Warnings Absolutely obey the following rules during transportation. - Use proper wooden crane, forklift, or hoisting mechanisms for unloading or loading wooden cases, packages, boxes and palettes depending on their weight and volume. - Wear gloves, hard tip shoes and helmet during carrying works. - Never stay under hoisting mechanism while loading or unloading pumps.
(Figure 1-1) Only Pump (Figure 1-2) Motopomp with frame STORAGE - If pump group is not immediately installed, it should be stored in a place which is clean dry and does not include freezing and explosion risk. - If pump bearing are type which should be greased, they should be extra greased for preventing entry of moisture to bearings around shaft - Pump should be protected from moisture, dust, dirt and foreign objects by covering with suitable material.
Following properties should be considered during motor selection. - Maximum power of pump (in all operation ranges) - Operational revolution of pump shaft - Necessary power supply - Motor Type - Motor connection type (footed, flanged, horizontal, vertical etc.) Coupling (clutch) setup is obtained by pump and motor having identical axis. All parts of pumps mainly pump and motor bearings may have damage because of vibration caused by unadjusted coupling.

- Nuts of anchoring stud bolts are installed. - Anchoring stud bolt holes are filled with concrete grout. - Anchoring stud bolts are reciprocally tightened. - Coupling setup is controlled in this situation. - Concrete is poured into pump frame. Joining of poured concrete and ground concrete is cared.

-“Clutch Setup” is to provide motor and pump rotational axis over in straight line If TKF-K/MKF/TAP type motors are ordered with motor and frame, necessary clutch adjustments are made in our factory. However, adjustment can have failure during carrying, storage and installation. Make a clutch adjustment discarding the adjustment made in our factory.

This operation should be performed in reciprocal two places in horizontal and vertical plane. Adjustment errors can be in horizontal and vertical plane. Errors in vertical plane are eliminated by putting thin steel sheets under feet of pump or motor, errors in horizontal plane are eliminated by making adjustments in spaces of fixing holes or sliding motor in horizontal plane.

(Figure 4) Auxiliary Pipe Connections and Accessories Depending on the practice auxiliary pipe connections (necessary seal, cooling, seal washing, liquiding, drain, etc and/or) pressure gauge, temperature gauge connections can be used for controlling operational conditions. - Pressure or vacuum gauges should be installed sturdy in measurement points which are over flanges or very close to flanges by means of estimated 8 mm pipes which are bended in spiral form.

Figure 5 d1: Air Venting plug d2: Grease Nipple d3: Grease Drain Plug d4: Drain Plug By-Pass Valve Connection - A by-pass valve should be places over discharge pipe just after pump and before adjustment valve or outlet flange of pump if there is a case that pump will operate in conditions that pump discharge valve is completely closed(that is with zero flow rate) or almost closed (that is with very small flow rate).
- Motor shaft should be rotated by hand before making electrical conditions to control whether it rotates easily. - It is recommended to use PTC(Passive Thermal Control-Thermistor) in motors. However usage of those depends on customer. If PTC is used ends of those should be connected to motor terminal box and later should be connected to PTC control device in motor control panel.

- Pump bearings are shipped from the factory as being filled with grease which will be enough for one year. - Before first start of pump, bearings should be checked whether there dirt has entered into it during shipment and installation. If bearings are dirt they should be completely be cleaned and greased again.

4) Pump discharges no liquid. 5) Flow rate continuously decreases. 6) Motor operates overloaded 7) Pump operates with very much noise. 8) Pump does not discharge sufficient liquid. Stopping the Pump - Slowly close the discharge pump. -. If there is liquid impulse prevention equipment in Discharge line and if the impulse which may occur is not in dangerous levels, you can stop the pump without closing the valve.
LUBRICATION Bearings in SEMPOMP pumps are designed to be lubricated with grease or liquid oil and having an easy maintenance. OIL CONTROL - If pump has waited before installation for a long time (more than 3 months), bearings should be greased. If liquid oil is used in bearings, old oil should be removed and filled with new oil.
Page 20
Dismounting of Pump - Close the isolation valves in suction and discharge pipes. - Open the fuses of electricity line fuses coming to motor as they will not carry current and remove control cable coming to motor from motor terminal box. - Open the discharge plug under the scroll case and discharge the liquid inside pump.
Page 21
Pumps with Mechanical Seal - Liquid leakage does not occur in a mechanical seal which properly operates. Mechanical Seal does not need maintenance in cases that it does not have visible liquid leakage. Besides this impermeability of mechanical seal should be regularly controlled.
SPARE PARTS - SEMPOMP warrants to provide the spare parts for TKF-K Series pumps for 5(five) years beginning from production date. You can always easily obtain the spare parts you need. - In spare parts order, it will be sufficient for you to inform the following values which are written in pump nameplate.

There is air in liquid Swirls occur since depth of submersion pipe is not enough and there fore air is not absorbed. Control the liquid level in suction tank and increase the depth of bottom/suction pipe back liquid valve. Air pocket in suction pipe Control the slope of suction pipe and whether there are suitable places for formation of air pockets, if any make necessary corrections.
