4.3 Pump-to-driver alignment Attach the other indicator (A) so that the indicator rod comes into contact with the inner end of the driver coupling half. This indicator is used to measure angular misalignment. Figure 14: Dial indicator attachment Rotate the pump coupling half (X) in order to check that the indicators are in contact with the driver coupling half (Y) but do not bottom out.
Page 29
4.3 Pump-to-driver alignment Repeat the previous steps until the permitted reading value is achieved. 4.3.5.2 Perform angular alignment for a horizontal correction Before you start this procedure, make sure that the dial indicators are properly attached for measure- ment. Set the angular alignment indicator (A) to zero on left side of the driver coupling half (Y), 90° from the top-center position (9 o’clock).
Page 30
The specified permitted reading values are valid only at operating temperature. For cold set- tings, other values are permitted. The correct tolerances must be used. Failure to do so can result in misalignment. Contact ITT for further information. 4.3.5.4 Perform parallel alignment for a horizontal correction Refer to the alignment table in "Permitted indicator values for alignment checks"...

5.8 Start the pump NOTICE: • Risk of equipment damage due to dry operation. Immediately observe the pressure gauges. If discharge pressure is not quickly attained, stop the driver immediately, reprime, and attempt to restart the pump. • On frame mounted units, ensure that the oil level is correct prior to starting pump. Close coupled pumps do not have oil lubricated bearings.
5.10 Shut down the pump Operation under freezing conditions NOTICE: Do not expose an idle pump to freezing conditions. Drain all liquid that will freeze that is inside the pump and any auxiliary equipment. Failure to do so can cause liquid to freeze and damage the pump.
Page 56
5.11 Make the final alignment of the pump and driver Run the unit under actual operating conditions for enough time to bring the pump, driver, and asso- ciated system to operating temperature. Shut down the pump and the driver. Remove the coupling guard. See Remove the coupling guard in the Maintenance chapter.
6 Maintenance 6 Maintenance 6.1 Maintenance schedule Maintenance inspections A maintenance schedule includes these types of inspections: • Routine maintenance • Routine inspections • Three-month inspections • Annual inspections Shorten the inspection intervals appropriately if the pumped fluid is abrasive or corrosive or if the envi- ronment is classified as potentially explosive.
These bearing lubrication sections list different temperatures of the pumped fluid. If the pump is ATEX-certified and the temperature of the pumped fluid exceeds the permitted temperature values, then consult your ITT representative. 6.3 Disassembly 6.3.1 Disassembly precautions WARNING: •...
6.3 Disassembly • Risk of serious physical injury or death from rapid depressurization. Ensure pump is iso- lated from system and pressure is relieved before disassembling pump, removing plugs, opening vent or drain valves, or disconnecting piping. • Lifting and handling heavy equipment poses a crush hazard. Use caution during lifting and handling and wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE, such as steel- toed shoes, gloves, etc.) at all times.
6.3 Disassembly • Refer to driver/coupling/gear manufacturer's installation and operation manuals (IOM) for specific instructions and recommendations. Shut off all valves that control flow to and from the pump. Drain and flush the pump before you remove it from the piping. Isolate the pump from the system and then flush the pump using a compatible liquid.
