4.1 Pre-installation 4.1.2 Foundation requirements Requirements • The foundation must weigh not less than three times the combined weight of the pump, driver, baseplate and auxiliaries. • Provide a flat, substantial concrete foundation in order to prevent strain and distortion when you tighten the foundation bolts.
4.2 Baseplate-mounting procedures J-type bolts Item Description Baseplate Foundation Bolt Figure 8: J-type bolts 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.
4.2 Baseplate-mounting procedures 4.2.2 Prepare the foundation for mounting Chip the top of the foundation to a minimum of 25.0 mm | 1.0 in. in order to remove porous or low- strength concrete. If you use a pneumatic hammer, make sure that it does not contaminate the surface with oil or other moisture.
4.3 Install the pump, driver, and coupling The baseplate will rest on top of the foundation on the jackscrews provided on the baseplate. Adjust the leveling jackscrews, located adjacent to the foundation bolt holes, until the baseplate rests 25 to 50 mm | 1 to 2 in. above the foundation in order to allow for adequate grouting. This provides even support for the baseplate after grouting.

Cartridge seals installed by the user require disengagement of the hold- ing clips prior to operation, allowing the seal to slide into place. If the seal has been installed in the pump by ITT, these clips have already been disengaged. Other mechanical seal types For other types of mechanical seals, refer to the instructions provided by the seal manufacturer for instal- lation and setting.
5.8 Pump priming Seal flushing methods Table 1: You can use these methods in order to flush or cool the seal: Method Description Product flush Run the piping so that the pump pushes the pumped fluid from the casing and injects it into the seal gland. If necessary, an external heat exchanger cools the pumped fluid before it enters the seal gland.
5.10 Start the pump Item Description Discharge isolation valve Check valve Suction isolation valve Figure 34: Suction supply above pump 5.10 Start the pump WARNING: Risk of equipment damage, seal failure and breach of containment. Ensure all flush and cool- ing systems are operating correctly prior to starting pump.
5.11 i-ALERT®2 Equipment Health Monitor Stop the driver. Prime the pump again. Restart the driver. Monitor the pump while it is operating: Check the pump for bearing temperature, excessive vibration, and noise. If the pump exceeds normal levels, then shut down the pump immediately and correct the prob- lem.
5.13 Shut down the pump • Establish baseline vibration readings in order to determine normal running conditions. If the unit is running roughly, then consult the factory. • Monitor all gauges to ensure that the pump is running at or near rating and that the suc- tion screen (when used) is not clogged.
5.15 Make the final alignment of the pump and driver NOTICE: Always reset the health monitor when the pump is started after maintenance, system change, or being shut down for an extended period of time. Failure to do so may result in false baseline levels that could cause the condition monitor to alert in error.
5.16 Doweling the pump casing If the temperature differential is high the baseplate is supplied with provision to accommodate differential temperature doweling. This design ensures the alignment between the pump and driver is maintained while allowing the case to thermally move. When the driver is mounted at the factory, the driver is not doweled in order to allow for final field align- ment.

6 Maintenance 6 Maintenance 6.1 Maintenance schedule Maintenance inspections A maintenance schedule includes these types of inspections: • Routine maintenance • Routine inspections • Three-month inspections • Annual inspections Shorten the inspection intervals appropriately if the pumped fluid is abrasive or corrosive or if the envi- ronment is classified as potentially explosive.
Cartridge seals installed by the user require disengagement of the hold- ing clips prior to operation, allowing the seal to slide into place. If the seal has been installed in the pump by ITT, these clips have already been disengaged. Other mechanical seal types For other types of mechanical seals, refer to the instructions provided by the seal manufacturer for instal- lation and setting.
6.4 Disassembly Before you start the pump Check the seal and all flush piping. Mechanical seal life The life of a mechanical seal depends on the cleanliness of the pumped fluid.
