3 Product Description systems, cooling is accomplished by inserting a small heat exchanger in the flush line to cool the seal flushing fluid. 3. Flush-line filters and sediment separators are available on request. 4. Use a standard seal on closed or open systems that are relatively free of dirt and/or other abrasive particles.
4 Installation 4 Installation 4.1 Preinstallation Precautions WARNING: • When installing in a potentially explosive environment, make sure that the motor is properly certified. • You must ground (earth) all electrical equipment. This applies to the pump equipment, the driver, and any monitoring equipment. Test the ground (earth) lead to verify that it is connected correctly.
4 Installation Guideline Explanation/comment Keep the pump as close to the liquid source as practically This minimizes the friction loss and keeps the suction possible. piping as short as possible. If the pump is not on a closed system, locate the pump so that the fewest number of bends or elbows in the suction pipe are needed.
4 Installation Check Explanation/comment Checked Check that the suction or discharge lines are not forced into position. Check that fittings for absorbing expansion are This helps to avoid strain on the pump. installed in the system when considerable temperature changes are expected. Check that flexible piping is used on both the suction —...

4 Installation Figure 4 Optional B&G Flange Supports can be used when rigid pump support to the floor or isolation base is required. The supports are installed on the back side of the pump flanges and have tapped holes to accept the flange bolting and have mounting holes in their bases for anchor bolts.

4 Installation Figure 8 e-580 pumps have a four bolt circle on the bottom of the volute to accept an ANSI/ASME flange that can be used with a connected pipe as a temporary pump support while the permanent pump piping or pump supports are being fitted to the pump. This support can only be used to handle the pump weight as it is not suitable resist loads in other directions.
5 Commissioning, Startup, Operation, and Shutdown 5 Commissioning, Startup, Operation, and Shutdown 5.1 Preparation for startup WARNING: • Failure to follow these precautions before you start the unit will lead to serious personal injury and equipment failure. • Do not operate the pump below the minimum rated flows or with the suction or discharge valves closed.
5 Commissioning, Startup, Operation, and Shutdown 5.2 Prime the pump CAUTION: Do not run the pump dry. Make sure that the pump body is full of liquid before startup. If the system does not automatically fill the pump body with liquid, then you must manually prime the pump. 1.
5 Commissioning, Startup, Operation, and Shutdown Operation at reduced capacity WARNING: Never operate any pumping system with a blocked suction and discharge. Operation, even for a brief period under these conditions, can cause confined pumped fluid to overheat, which results in a violent explosion. You must take all necessary measures to avoid this condition.
