  • Page 5: Introduction

    1.1 INTENDED USE The WITT refrigerant pump with flanged motor type GP is designed to deliver exclusively refrig- erant liquid at its boiling point. The pump is labelled with model and design limitation for pressure and temperature. Pump performance details are specified in chapter Fehler! Verweisquelle konnte nicht gefunden werden.
  • Page 6: Safety Advice

    1.3 SAFETY ADVICE The pump is designed for use in industrial refrigeration systems using primary refrigerants. It is very important that everybody responsible for the safe operation and maintenance of the plant reads this manual. The coupling protection must be in place at all times! (see chapter 8.2.2) If you have any problems please do not hesitate to call our service department, who will be glad to assist you.
  • Page 7: Terms Of Warrenty

    TERMS OF WARRENTY In order to avoid accidents and ensure optimum performance, no modifications or conversions may be carried out to the refrigerant pump without the explicit written approval by TH.

  • Page 24: Description Of Operation

    The WITT stop/return valve ERA is provided with a purge connection pipe DN 10 and a hand regulating valve EE6, supplied loose. The EE6 should be fitted so that any gas may be purged to the surge drum.
  • Page 25: Applications

    The principle of a pump re-circulation system is shown in fig. 4. Fig. 4 principle of pump recirculation system WITT refrigerant pumps differ from conventional centrifu-gal pump designs due to the fact that large volumes of entrained vapour (gas bubbles) do not completely stop delivery of the refrig- erant liquid.
  • Page 26: Determination Of The Delivery Head

    OPERATIONAL LIMITATIONS GP refrigerant pumps are suitable for operation with all refrigerants. GP 52 can be operated with ammonia up to 1450 RPM. GP 52 is only permitted for operation with higher density refrigerants (ρ > 800 kg/m³) below 1200 RPM! 5.2 DETERMINATION OF THE DELIVERY HEAD The required delivery head is the resistance the pump needs to overcome to supply the evap- orator with the high-est pressure loss with sufficient liquid refrigerant (in most cases this will...

    The vortext breaker shall consist of crossed plates with a baffle plate on top to avoid any vor- texing. Vortex breakers are available from TH. WITT. Above the baffle plate of the vortex breaker there should be at least 15mm refrigerant level (in systems a minimum coverage of 50mm is required).
  • Page 29: Downleg Design

    Do not connect two or more pumps in operation by a single common pump suction line liquid header. Fig.6 Application with two pumps in operation 6.3 DOWNLEG DESIGN The pump shall be connected using a vertical pipeline to the separator. To prevent interaction between pumps it is advised that each pump be connected individually to the separator, see fig.

  • Page 31: Pump Discharge Line

    6.4 PUMP DISCHARGE LINE The sizing of the discharge line is less critical to the sys-tem operation. A liquid velocity of 1.5 m/s is normally recommended. A non-return valve (this is usually a combined stop/check valve type ERA) in the discharge line is required when a backwards flow from the discharge to the suction side is possible.
  • Page 32 The flow switch control in the pump discharge shall stop the flow as the flow drops below 0,2 m/s. See also WITT information sheet W 4652-0.01 - Installation requirements -...
  • Page 33: Electrical Information

    6.6 ELECTRICAL INFORMATION Folgende Vorkehrungen im Steuerstromkreis sind zu berücksichtigen: 6.6.1 Overload protection An overload protection switch shall protect the pump against too high current (amps) consump- tion. Maximum setting must be less than max. allowable current I shown on the type plate. 6.6.2 Hand switch It is recommended the control panel incorporates a H–0-A switch for use during commission- ing and maintenance operations.
  • Page 34: Installation And Application

    (see installation instructions for fitting pumps to a piping system, available on the WITT website). Special attention must be paid to the expected pipe contraction at low temperatures. When welding to WITT stop valves, the valves should be in a half open position with wet cloths around the valve packing.
  • Page 35: Preparation Of Commissioning

    8.2.1 Flange allignment GP pumps are designed with a grooved (female) flange on the suction side and a tongue (male) flange on the delivery side. It is important to ensure the pump connection flanges are properly aligned before tightening. Do not use the flange bolts to align or "stretch" the pipe. Using flange bolts to pull together a too large gap will cause undue stress in the pipework or distort the pump or the flange.
  • Page 36: Commissioning

    8.4 COMMISSIONING  Check and record the pressures in the system.  If the pressure difference is smaller than expected, the pump may be rotating in the wrong direction. The pump should rotate clockwise in the direction of the arrow indicated on the pump housing.
  • Page 37: Pump Standstill (Stand-By)

    8.6 PUMP STANDSTILL (STAND-BY) During periods of pump standstill, only one shut-off valve may be closed, preferably the discharge valve. When the suction and discharge valves are closed at the same time, the pressure of the trapped cold liquid in the pump will increase rapidly. As the liquid warms up to an unacceptable high value, it can very quickly damage the pump.
  • Page 38: Service And Maintenance

    SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE 9.1 REMOVING A PUMP Follow all national and local safety requirements when re-moving the pump. Particular care must be taken of the following:  Check the plant room layout and exit doors so you can evacuate the area quickly in case of an emergency.
  • Page 39 Only when filling oil the hand wheel (85) has to be turned close! To fill oil carefully open the slotted screw (57) by hand ¼ turn. The surrounding of the screw shall be covered with a wet cloth to dind any escaping refrigerant gas. (see first photo chapter 0).
  • Page 40: Oil Exchange

    9.3 OIL EXCHANGE When exchanging oil the same procedure as described in Chapter 9.2 has to be adhered to. If there is no significant oil consumption, the oil should be exchanged every 5 years. 9.4 CHANGING THE SHAFT SEALS 2. The oil fill plug (57) is slotted to avoid a 1.

    Oil can be removed through a WITT EA 10 GÜ/GB stop valve, which can be installed in place of the lower 1/4"-screw plug in the discharge chamber. In addition, a quick closing action valve must be installed be-hind the drain valve.
