AISI 316L. CTS H with excellent electro polished surfaces, FDA approved seals, high finish and mechanical strength, meet the demands from food and sanitary applications, CTS I with AISI 316L chemical resistance and mechanical strength is a reliable choice. The self-priming feature allows to use the pump in applications where standard CT pumps do not prove useful.
INSTALLATION INSTALLATION 1.1. Operation principle In order for the priming action to be achieved, the pump casing has to be filled with liquid to a level above the impeller (1). When the pump starts its operation, it is slowly sucking out the air from the suction line thus creating negative pressure and lifting the product.
1.7.1. Protection In the interest of health and safety it is essential to wear protective clothing and safety goggles when operating, and/or working in the vicinity of Tapflo pumps. IOM manual CTS self-priming pumps...
INSTALLATION 1.7.2. Electrical safety Do not carry out any maintenance or/and operation on the pump while it is running or before it has been disconnected from the power supply. Avoid any danger caused by electric power (for details see current regulations in force). Check that electrical specifications on the data plate are equivalent to the power supply to which it will be connected.
INSTALLATION 1.8. Example of installation 1) YES: Gate valve (may also be near pump in case of long piping) 2) With positive head: tilt of piping towards pump 3) YES: line strainer if particles are present 4) NO: air pockets – the circuit must be short and straight 5) YES: pipe fastening 6) Suction line as short and direct as possible 7) YES: attachment for gauge or safety pressure switch...
INSTALLATION 1.9.1. Electric power The electric power absorbed by the motor can be measured by means of a wattmeter. 1.9.2. Optional instruments The optional instruments can indicate if pump is working in an abnormal way. The abnormal conditions can be caused by: accidentally closed valves, lack of pumped liquid, overloads, etc.
OPERATION OPERATION 2.1. Start-up Check manually that the motor is free to turn, moving the motor cooling fan. Make sure that the piping is not clogged and is free from residues or foreign objects. Make sure that the liquid flows regularly into the pump. ...
OPERATION 2.2. Stopping the pump It is advisable to close the discharge shut-off / regulation valve gradually and stop the motor immediately after. The reverse sequence is not recommendable, especially with larger pumps or longer delivery piping. That is to avoid any problems due to water hammering.
MAINTENANCE MAINTENANCE Maintenance work on electrical installations must be performed by qualified personnel and only when the power supply has been shutoff. Follow the local and national safety regulations. 3.1. Inspections Periodically check suction and discharge pressures. Inspect the motor according to the instructions from the motor manufacturer. ...
MAINTENANCE 3.3. Disassembly of the pump The disassembly should only be performed by qualified personnel. Each operation carried out on the machine must always be carried out once all the electrical contacts have been disconnected. The pump-motor unit must be placed in a position where it cannot be started unintentionally.
MAINTENANCE Fig 3.3.7 If necessary, push out the static part [15B] of the mechanical seal. NOTE! Apply some alcohol or water before pushing out of the mechanical seal. Fig 3.3.8 Remove the deflector [17]. Fig 3.3.9 Remove the screws [121] and washers [122] holding the back cover [11] to the motor [10].

MAINTENANCE Fig. 3.4.2 Before assembly of the mechanical seal [15] wet the O-rings with alcohol. Fig. 3.4.3 After inserting the static part [15B] of the mechanical seal, fit the back casing [12] onto the back cover [11] and check the seal fitting dimension according to the table below.
MAINTENANCE Fig. 3.4.6 To screw in the casing pin screws [141S] use two nuts tightened against each other. 3.4.1. Test run We recommend you to conduct a test run of the pump before installing it in the system, so no liquid gets wasted if the pump leaks or perhaps does not start accordingly to wrong assembly of the pump.
AISI 316L Ra<0.8 * Option Parts indicated as [H/N] have different execution for CTS I and CTS H pumps. When ordering spare parts please indicate if the part is for Industrial or Hygienic series e.g. 5-340N-11 or 5-340H-11. IOM manual CTS self-priming pumps...
4.4. How to order parts When ordering spare parts for Tapflo pumps. please let us know what is the model number and serial number from the pump’s name plate. Then just indicate the part numbers from the spare parts list and quantity of each item.
