    TYPICAL EXAMPLE: P 2081 / 98 (2) MODEL – CP7, followed by SIZE – Composed of three (3) groups of number. EXAMPLE: 4 x 3 x 11 – First number (4) is the ASA suction flange size in inches, second number is the ASA discharge flange size in inches, the third number (11) is the nominal maximum impeller diameter in inches.

    aligned and, therefore, alignment must be established during installation. S.A.M. Engineering (Pty) Ltd has determined that proper and correct alignment can only be made by accepted erection practices. Refer to the following paragraphs on "Foundation", "Setting Base plate", "Grouting Procedure", "Alignment Procedure"...
  • Page 6: Setting Baseplate

    foundations should be allowed to cure for several days before the unit is set in place and grouted. E. SETTING BASEPLATE: Pump units are checked at the factory for alignability to required tolerances. Due to flexibility of an ungrouted base and handling in shipment, it should not be assumed that the unit is in alignment when it is placed on the rough foundation.

    necessary on flexible type couplings. Tighten up all pump and motor bolts to assure they have not loosened or a "soft foot" has occurred due to base distortion in shipment. If driver is being field installed, it should be centered in its bolt holes with shims added to bring the motor into rough alignment with the pump.
  • Page 8 b. Parallel misalignment - shafts have axis parallel, but offset. The necessary tools for checking alignment are (1) a straight edge and caliper or micrometer, or (2) a dial indicator with mounting magnet and extension bars. Method 1 - Straight Edge Proceed with this method only if satisfied that face and outside diameters of the coupling halves are square and concentric with the coupling bores.
  • Page 9 Method 2: Dial Indicators A dial indicator can be used to attain more accurate alignment. Fasten the indicator to the pump half of the coupling and adjust the assembly until the indicator button is resting on the other half coupling periphery.
  • Page 10 Take indicator assembly as is and mount it on any short section of the pipe. Holding the pipe horizontally with indicator assembly on top, set the dial to zero. Rotate the pipe 180° so the indicator assembly is on the bottom and read the dial. This reading represents indicator assembly sag and must be considered in the alignment readings.

Both the suction and discharge piping should be independently anchored near the pump and properly aligned so that no strain is transmitted to the pump when the flange bolts are tightened. Use pipe hangers or other supports at necessary intervals to provide support. When expansion joints are used in the piping system they must be installed beyond the piping supports closest to the pump.
  • Page 13 3. Where two or more pumps are connected to the same suction line, install gate valves so that any pump can be isolated from the line. Gate valves should be installed on the suction side of all pumps with a positive pressure for maintenance purposes. Install gate valves with stems horizontal to avoid air pockets.
  • Page 15: Stuffing Box Lubrication

    I. STUFFING BOX LUBRICATION: NOTE: CP7 Plus pumps can be furnished with a standard stuff box or oversize seal chamber. Oversize seal chambers are available as either cylindrical bore or tapered bore designs. Consider using oversize seal chamber or Dynamic Seal on difficult sealing applications. Standard stuffing box can be furnished with a mechanical seal or packing arrangement.
  • Page 16 3. Suction pressure is below 5 bar g. 4. Liquid has lubricating qualities. 5. Liquid is non-toxic and non-volatile. When the liquid being pumped contains solids or is otherwise not compatible with packing materials, an outside supply of seal liquid should be furnished. In general, external-injection liquid (from an outside source) is required when the following conditions prevail: 1.
  • Page 17 More pressure is required, however, for slurries than for clear liquids. Examination of the leakage will indicate whether to increase or decrease external pressure. If slurry is present in the leakage, increase the pressure until only clear liquid drips from the box. If the drippage is corrosive or harmful to personnel, it should be collected and piped away.
  • Page 18 Flow rate through the seal chamber should be approximately 1 l /min. The correct pressure is most impor- tant. The purpose of the manual valve in the exit line is to create the necessary backpressure so that proper stuffing box pressure can be maintained. It is important that the exit line be attached at the top of the stuffing box so air is vented out.
  • Page 19: Operation

    Cartridge seals: Follow the appropriate lubrications directions (single seal or double seal) given in this section. Use the cartridge seal gland flushing taps for your seal water connections. Most cartridge seals provide flushing connections on their glands. The quench taps on the glands (if present) can be used when necessary. Con- sult seal manufacturer's literature for more detailed information.
  • Page 20: Starting

    Filling: Vents should be located at the highest point so entrained gases and air can escape. However, if the gases are flammable, toxic, or corrosive they should be vented to an appropriate place to prevent harm to personnel or other parts of the system. Pipe hangers and anchors should be checked to make sure they are properly set to take the additional weight of the pumpage.

    Check and record both suction and discharge pressure gauge readings for future reference. Also record voltage, amperage per phase, and kilowatts if an indicating wattmeter is available. 6. Temperature: Check and record bearing temperatures using a thermometer. Temperature should not exceed 82° C.
  • Page 22 NOTE: Complete procedure for testing pumps is given in the Hydraulic Institute Test Standards and ISO standards in terms of S.A.M.’s quality listing. Gauge datum: The datum for all gauge readings is taken at the centerline of the pump shaft. Head measurement: The unit for measuring head should be in metres;...

    1. The standard cubic metre contains 1000 litres. 2. The specific weight of water at a temperature of 16° C shall be taken as 1 kg per litre. Kilowatt: 1. The formula for kilowatt required at the pump shaft is: Kw = Total head x m³/hr x sg 3.67 x Eff % 2.

    1. Bearings: Bearing lubrication - oil: Oil lubrication on CP7 pumps is considered standard. Oil lubricated pumps have a slinger which picks up the oil and creates a shower of fine droplets over the entire interior of the bearing cavity.
  • Page 25 attention before starting, provided the pump has been stored in a clean, dry place prior to its first operation. The bearings should be watched the first hour or so after the pump has been started to see that they are operating properly. In greasing anti-friction bearings the use of high pressure equipment is not only unnecessary, but is actually undesirable unless used with great care.

    OVERHEATING OF THE BEARINGS. Remove vent plugs for the first 24 hours of operation after regreasing. Bearing temperature: Normally the maximum desirable operating temperature for ball bearings is 82°C as measured on the bearing housing. Should the temperature of the bearing frame rise above the limit, the pump should be shut down to determine the cause.

    before new packing is installed. Also check the condition of the shaft or sleeve for possible scoring or eccentricity, make replacements where necessary. New packing should be placed carefully into the stuffing box. If molded rings are used, the rings should be opened sideways and the joints pushed into the stuffing box first.
  • Page 28: Maintenance Timetable

    E. MAINTENANCE TIME TABLE: EVERY MONTH Check bearing temperature with a thermometer, not by hand. If bearings are running hot (over 82°C), it may be the result of too much lubricant. If changing the lubricant does not correct the condition, disassemble and inspect the bearings.
