    4.2 Baseplate-mounting procedures 4.2 Baseplate-mounting procedures 4.2.1 Prepare the baseplate for mounting This procedure assumes you have a basic knowledge of baseplate and foundation design and installa- tion methods. Follow industry-standard procedures, such as API RP 686/ PIP REIE 686, or this proce- dure before you grout the baseplate.
  • Page 24 4.2 Baseplate-mounting procedures • Two machinist's levels This procedure is applicable to the feature-fabricated steel baseplate and the advantage base baseplate. Apply an anti-seize compound on the jackscrews. The compound makes it easier to remove the screws after you grout. Lower the baseplate carefully onto the foundation bolts and perform these steps: Cut the plates from the bar stock and chamfer the edges of the plates in order to reduce stress concentrations.

  • Page 95 6.6 Reassembly • Make sure that all parts and threads are clean and that you have followed all directions under the Preassembly inspections section. • Check for magnetism on the pump shaft and demagnetize the shaft if there is any detectable magnetism. Magnetism attracts ferritic objects to the impeller, seal, and bearings which can result in excessive heat generation, sparks, and premature failure.
  • Page 96 6.6 Reassembly CAUTION: Risk of physical injury from hot bearings. Wear insulated gloves when using a bearing heater. NOTICE: Do not use a torch and do not use force. Coat the internal surface of the bearings with the lubricant that is to be used in service. Assemble the radial-end bearing (168) onto the shaft (122).
