CAUTION Hazards or unsafe practices which COULD result in minor personal injury or product or property damage.
SECTION I RECEIVING AND WARRANTY WAUKESHA CHERRY-BURRELL WARRANTY Seller warrants its products to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of one (1) year from the date of shipment. This warranty shall not apply to products which require repair or replacement due to normal wear and tear or to products which are subjected to accident, misuse or improper maintenance.

INSTALLATION PUMP INSTALLATION The installation of your Waukesha pump and its piping system should follow the practices described to give optimum performance, and be in accordance with local codes and restrictions. All system equipment, such as motors, sheaves, drive couplings, speed reducers, etc., must be properly sized to insure satisfactory operation of your Waukesha pump within its limits.

A particular relief valve design will have a charac- teristic curve such as shown. The ''cracking pres- BY-PASS sure" can usually be set by spring adjustment, or PRESSURE by adjustable pneumatic pressure, etc. Flow will begin to bypass when this ''cracking pressure'' is reached.

In-line Drives. For initial pump installation, and for rechecking alignment, the following steps are advised: Use a flexible coupling to connect the drive to the pump. Many different types are available, including couplings with slip or overload provision. RUBBER SLIP FLUID GEAR FLEXIBLE...
Aligning belt and chain drives. Using straight-edges and visual check: MOVE DRIVE TO CORRECT ANGULAR AND PARALLEL MISALIGNMENT. KEEP DISTANCE TO MINIMUM After piping is complete and before belts are installed, turn pump shaft manually to see that it turns freely.
SECTION IV TROUBLESHOOTING A PUMPING SYSTEM Once a pump is properly selected and installed in a system, operation should be trouble free. However, in existing systems, or as pump and system conditions change, problems may develop. Following are some troubleshooting hints to help identify and solve problems. WARNING WARNING TO AVOID POSSIBLE SERIOUS INJURY,...

TROUBLESHOOTING Problem Probable Causes Solutions No flow, pump "Air" lock. Fluids which "gas off", Manual or automatic air bleed from not priming or vaporize, or allow gas to come pump or lines near pump out of solution during off periods Extra clearance rotors, worn pump Increase pump speed, use foot valve to improve priming...

TROUBLESHOOTING Problem Probable Causes Solutions Fluid vaporization NIPA too Low Select larger pump size with (''starved'' pump inlet) smaller NIPR Fluid viscosity greater Reduce pump speed and accept than expected lower flow, or change system to reduce line losses. Fluid temperature higher than Reduce temperature, reduce speed expected (vapor pressure higher) and accept lower flow or change...

TROUBLESHOOTING Problem Probable Causes Solutions Noisy operation • Rotor to body contact Distortion of pump due to Reassemble pump or re-install improper piping installation. piping to assure free running Pressure higher than rated Reduce pressure if possible Worn bearing Rebuild with new bearings. Lubricate regularly Worn gears Rebuild with new gears.
SECTION V OPERATION Normal operation covers a speed range of 0-600 RPM and pressure range of 0-200 PSI. Temperature range with standard rotors is -40° to 200° F. and with hot clearance rotors, 180° to 300° F. (For operation at higher temperatures, consult SPX FLOW.) See START-UP CHECK LIST (Page 10) and TROUBLESHOOTING (Page 11-14) for additional operation information.
SECTION Vl MAINTENANCE GENERAL In the maintenance of pumps it is important to recognize when parts are wearing excessively. Detecting wear in the early stages will let you repair your pump at minimum cost and get it back into operation at the earliest date. Periodic cleaning and a simple “look-feel”...

SEAL MAINTENANCE PACKING GLAND 1. Packing Seal a. To suit the required service, a variety of packing materials and replaceable shaft sleeves are available. Standard packing material is braided teflon-compounds. Standard sleeves are 316 stainless; optional sleeves of ceramic coated stainless are SLEEVE available.
e. Refer to parts list and drawing for your pump. As- semble packing components into body cavity as shown in the drawing. Stagger the end joints in the packing rings so they do not line up. Snug up gland but DO NOT tighten. Make final adjustment of packing glands after startup.
Dual Inside and Outside Seal SEAT RETAINER (GLAND) a. Turn on seal water. b. If water leaks past the outside seal, flush off any scale or crusted product that may have accumulated around the shaft and seal area and seal springs. c.
SECTION Vll FACTORY RECONDITIONING Waukesha Industrial pumps are designed so that they may be factory reconditioned twice and backed with a new pump warranty each time. Factory reconditioning involves replacement of all worn parts such as shafts, bearings, oil seals, gears, etc.
2. Remove O-ring from cover groove and inspect. Discard if not in good condition. REMOVE ROTORS 3. Turn shaft to orient rotors as shown for easy removal one at a time. a. To remove rotor retainer bolts, straighten lock clip tabs using a screw driver or drift. Then, when clear, use a conventional wrench and a sharp counterclockwise impact to loosen bolt.
REMOVE SHAFTS, BEARINGS AND GEAR CASE GEARS - ALL MODELS GEAR CASE COVER CAP SCREW OIL SEAL OIL DRAIN PLUG SILICONE SEALANT 1. Remove oil drain plug and drain oil. 2. Remove cap screws from gear case cover. 3. Pull cover off shaft extension. If cover sticks, use soft hammer to loosen it. 4.

PROPER CLEARANCES 1. All Waukesha pumps are designed with close A= BACK FACE CLEARANCE running clearances and the back face clearance is B=ROTOR TO BODY CLEARANCE established with shims during assembly. The shaft C=FRONT FACE CLEARANCE is positioned with shims behind the front bearing and locked into bearing gear case.
