    Concrete pads and other concrete works must be aged, dry and clean before the pump assembly can be positioned in place. Complete all the work relating to the foundations and grouting of the pump assembly, before proceeding with the mechanical and electrical portion of the installation. 7.1 - PIPING CONNECTIONS Identify first locations and dimensions of all connections required to interconnect the pump with the installation, then proceed with the actual piping: connect the pump suction and discharge flanges, the service liquid line and all other...
  • Page 11 7.3 - INSTALLATION SCHEMATICS FOR LIQUID RING VACUUM PUMPS CAUTION! Possible contact with hazardous media and hazardous substances, cold or warm. Operate only provided with apposite protective devices. The working principle of the vacuum pump requires a continuous flow of fresh and clean liquid that enters the pump at the service liquid connection identified by the letter Z (see chapter 7.11).
  • Page 12 7.4 - INSTALLATION SCHEMATICS FOR LIQUID RING COMPRESSORS The liquid ring vacuum pump can also operate as a compressor up to a maximum differential pressure, depending upon the models, of about 2 bar. The compressors series SA are specifically engineered to perform with differential pressures of up to 10 bar, depending on models.

If the system is fitted with a separator cyclone ITEM 1D and the adjacent collecting tank ITEM 1E, it is required to close valves ITEM 11A and 12 and open valve ITEM 13E.
  • Page 30 This is a damaging condition for the impellers, port plates and casings. The cavitation causes erosion taking away metal particles and attacking the surface of the pump components. This is particularly damaging if the pump is handling corrosive gases, see chapter 16 for suggestions to correct the problem. Pump series TRH, TRM and TRV are designed for the application of an anti-cavitation valve that should be left open (if required) see fig.
  • Page 31: Bearings Maintenance

    To replace the oil demister filter, simply disconnect the oil scavenger line, remove the cover ITEM 1C, remove the used filter element. Dispose the waste grease according to the current regulations protecting the environment. Apply a liquid gasketing material over the 2 gasket faces of the new filter and place the latter in the housing, put in place the cover and the scavenger line.
  • Page 32: Mechanical Seals

    Mechanical Seals can be of many different materials, types and configurations (see fig. 32-33-34 for some examples). To assure maximum reliability and safe operation Pompetravaini evaluates seal choices at time of pump selection in connection with customer’s requirements, application and liquid details.
  • Page 33 Required flow and pressure for buffer liquid are listed in tab. 7 and/or contact Pompetravaini and/or seal supplier. Standard mechanical seals supplied with our pumps meet ISO 3069/UNI EN 12756 standards, see pump “Disassembly and Assembly Instructions”...
  • Page 34 evaluation by our technical department. Mechanical seals do not require maintenance until losses of liquid are visible (for seal replacement see “Disassembly and Assembly Instructions”). Losses of few drops of liquid in several minutes is normally considered acceptable and it is not an indication of seal failure. Seal leakage or even seal failure should be properly corrected considering the impact on environment, toxicity and safety issues.
