Equipment and Tools See Step 1 that describes the tools used Introduction: This procedure describes the process for assembling a Model SSPC enclosed impeller pump. These pumps have a catalog number that begin with a C1 and C2. The BOM will list the specific parts used such as o-rings, mechanical seals, cases, motor etc.

See work instruction WI_M_DTMOT for details on this procedure. Nidec motors will use a ¼-20” LH rotation screw and come tapped from the factory, while all others use a ¼”- 28 RH rotation locking screw. This hole is drilled and tapped at ASP. Step 3 Gather Parts Gather the parts located on the work order/BOM.

It can be seen in this picture as a black plug at the center of the motor. This plug must be removed in order to access the shaft during impeller installation.

There should be no gap present between the seal and the bore. Step 7 Setup Motor for Component Installation and Remove Slinger Setup the motor on its rear end.

This prevents the threads from galling or breaking with installation using an air ratchet.

The o-ring should not be twisted or rolled. Place one side of the o-ring over the sealplate. With two fingers, stretch the o-ring over the other side while being careful not to roll the o-ring.

Place the screw listed on the work order BOM into the motor shaft. -Left Hand screws will be rotated counter clockwise to tighten (Nidec Motors) -Right Handed screws will be tightened clockwise to tighten Rotate the screw by hand until it stops at the impeller hub.

Ensure the holes in the case flange, sealplate, and motor adapter are aligned by placing an extended 3/16” allen bit through the holes. Wiggle the bit to line up all the holes.

WORK INSTRUCTION WI_AB_CXXXXXXXXX Work Instruction No. Step 20 Inspecting the Assembly for Proper Baseplate If the motor is a footed motor, or an assembly with no base (catalog number ends with L), skip this step. Set the motor on its foot/base. Check the base to ensure the radius of the baseplate matches the motor diameter.
