  • Page 3: Introduction

    The first thing to do when the pump is received is to check it and ensure that the contents conform to the shipping voucher. INOXPA inspects all equipment prior to shipment, but it cannot guarantee that the merchandise reaches the user intact.

    The machine's safety is only ensured if it is used properly in accordance with the instructions given in this manual. The limits for values specified in the data sheet cannot be exceeded under any circumstances. Any change in operating conditions can only be done with the prior written consent of INOXPA. WARRANTY.

  • Page 8: General Information

    When the noise level in the operating area exceeds 85 dB(A), a special protection shall be installed. APPLICATION. The main advantage of the INOXPA lobe pump is its capacity to pump a great variety of viscous liquids, from 1 mPa.s up to 100.000 mPa.s Furthermore, it is capable of pumping liquid products that require very careful handling and liquids that contain soft solids thys causing only a minimum degradation of same.
  • Page 9: Materials Used In Its Construction

    When the pump is used in a pumping unit or in an environment for which the pump has not been designed, the operator and the material may be exposed to hazard. Consult INOXPA in case of doubt prior to use.
  • Page 10: Safety Valve

    - Single mechanical seal: 2500 mPa.s (Newtonian liquid) The maximum viscosity allowed will depend on the nature of the liquid and the sliding speed of the seal faces. Consult INOXPA should the viscosity be still greater. SAFETY VALVE. The positive displacement lobes pumps must be protected from excess pressure when they are operating.
  • Page 11: Installation

    4. Installation. GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS. This manual provides basic instructions which should be taken into account when proceeding to install the pump. It is of utmost importance that the plant foreman reads this manual before installation. The instructions include pertinent information which will enable you to install your pump / pumping unit correctly. The manual also contains important instructions for preventing eventual accidents and serious damage which could occur prior to start up and during the installation.
  • Page 12: Stability

    Outdoor installation. The TLS pump can only be installed out of doors if there is a roof covering it or, if permitted, a special installation is to be made. Consult INOXPA prior to installation. Indoor installation. Place the pump so that the motor is properly ventilated. Prepare the motor to be started according to the instructions provided by its manufacturer.
  • Page 13: Handling

    HANDLING. If the pump is supplied without a drive, the purchaser/user is responsible for the pump's start-up and assembly. Starting torque. The starting torque of the positive displacement pumps is almost identical to the rated torque. Make sure that the motor's rated torque is sufficiently high, but check that it does not exceed the maximum torque allowed on the pump shaft (see technical specifications).
  • Page 14: Speed Variators And Reducers

    Connection. Consult the supplier's instructions prior to connecting the motor to the power supply. For single-phase motors, use motors with an increased starting torque. Ensure a starting torque which is sufficiently high for motors controlled by a frequency converter, and provide for adequate cooling at low speeds.
  • Page 15 Suction pipe. Liquids should be introduced into the pump from a higher level than that of the pump; the pipe should be inclined in its path to the pump and be devoid of air pockets. A diameter which is too small, a suction pipe which is too long, or a filter that is too small or clogged, will lead to a greater loss of head and thus the NPSH available (NPSHa) can become less than that required (NPSHr).
  • Page 16 Shut-off valves. For a proper maintenance, the pump should be isolated. This isolation can be obtained by installing shut-off valves in the suction and discharge pipes of the pump. These valves should be able to open completely, both for suction and for discharge, up to the full passage of suction and discharge pipes (ball-valves or sluice valves are preferable).
  • Page 17: Start-Up

    5. Start-Up. GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS. The pump can be started up so long as the instructions given in chapter 4 ("Installation") have been followed. Prior to start-up, the persons responsible for the operation must be duly informed of the pump / pumping unit's operation and the safety instructions.
  • Page 18: Safety Valve

    SAFETY VALVE. The safety valve opening pressure setting is done in the INOXPA workshop. However, the valve's opening pressure depends on the fluid to be pumped, its viscosity, its r.p.m.., and so before starting-up the pump, the operator ought to adjust the safety valve's opening pressure.
  • Page 19: Maintenance

    Make sure that the personnel read the entire instruction manual and, in particular, indicate to them the chapters which refer to work which needs to be done. INOXPA does not assume responsibility for accidents and damage which might occur as a result of any failure to comply with the instructions indicated herein.
  • Page 20: Electrical Installation

    ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION. Maintenance work on electrical installations can only be done by qualified personnel and only when the power supply has been cut off. Carefully follow national safety regulations. Also abide by the regulations referred to above if you are working while the power supply is still connected. Check to see whether the electrical materials to be cleaned are well protected (for example, IP 54 indicates protection against dust and water spray but does not include protection against pressure water jets).

    7. Operating Problems Problems Probable Causes Overloading of motor 8, 9, 12, 15, 19, 20, 21, 22. Insufficient discharge flow rate 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14. No pressure on the discharge side 1, 2, 3, 6, 7. Irregular discharge flow rate/pressure 2, 4, 5, 6, 9, 12.
  • Page 22: Disassembly And Assembly

    Incorrect assembly or disassembly may cause damage in the pump's operation and lead to high repair costs and a long period of down-time. INOXPA is not responsible for accidents or damages caused by a failure to comply with the instructions in this manual.
