AISI 304/316L. The pump range meets the demands from a variety of today’s industries. The industrial series CTX I is designed with sand blasted pump casing. A variety of connection types, mechanical seal options and other executions are available to satisfy most type of industrial duties.
INSTALLATION INSTALLATION 1.1. Operation principle In order to operate the pump, the casing has to be filled with liquid before start-up. The liquid enters the pump casing axially to the shaft. The rotating impeller generates a centrifugal force accelerating the liquid through the pump casing and into the discharge piping.
INSTALLATION 1.4. Storage If the equipment is to be stored prior to installation, place it in a clean location. Do not remove the protective covers from the suction and discharge which have been fastened to keep pump internals free of debris. Clean the pump thoroughly before installation. When in storage, turn the shaft by hand at least once per month.
1.8.1. 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 CTX centrifugal pumps...
INSTALLATION 1.8.2. 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 1.9. Example of installation YES: Gate valve (may also be near pump in case of long piping) With positive head: tilt of piping towards pump YES: line strainer if particles are present NO: air pockets – the circuit must be short and straight YES: pipe fastening Suction line as short and direct as possible YES: attachment for gauge or safety pressure switch...
INSTALLATION The pressure intakes must be made of straight pieces of piping at a distance of minimum five diameters from the pump inlets. The pressure gauge on discharge must always be fitted between the pump and the shut-off / regulation valve. The output can be read on the pressure gauge, transformed into meters and then compared with the typical curves.
INSTALLATION 1.12. Motor standard As a standard Tapflo CTX pump are equipped with motors of the following parameters: ➢ International Mounting Arrangement – B35 ➢ Number of poles / Rotation speed [rpm] – 2 ➢ Non ATEX ➢ Protection grade – IP55 ➢...
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. If a suction shutoff valve has been installed, it is advisable to close it completely after pump is fully stopped.
OPERATION 2.4. Residual risks Even with proper application and observance of all points listed in this operating manual, there is still an estimable and unexpected residual risk when using the pumps. It may leak, fail due to wear, application-related causes or system-related circumstances. 2.5.
MAINTENANCE MAINTENANCE Maintenance work on electrical installations must be performed by qualified personnel and only when the power supply has been shut off. 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 be performed only by qualified personnel. Each operation to be fulfilled with 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.
