Remarks, suggestions and advice. Intended Use and Remarks on Safety The bare shaft set is exclusively designed for supporting a Bredel or an APEX pumphead and a drive. Every other use is not in conformance with the intended... -
Page 7: Warranty Conditions
GENERAL use. Refer to the manual of the pumphead for more information on safety and the intended use of the complete pump. Warranty Conditions Refer to the manual of the pumphead for warranty conditions. These conditions are applicable to the bare shaft set as well. -
Page 8: Description
To align the pump and the drive use alignment jigs. The jigs are not included in the package. Although the instructions in this manual are demonstrated with the Bredel 10-20 pump series, these are also applicable to the APEX10-20 series. -
Page 9: Installation
Follow the unpacking instructions on the packaging. Check that your delivery is correct and does not have transport damage. Report any damage immediately to your Bredel representative. This chapter describes the installation of the bare shaft set. Refer to the manual of the pumphead for installation and setup of the complete pump and the pipework. -
Page 10: Mounting The Support Set And Bare Shaft Kit
INSTALLATION 3.2.1 Mounting the support set and Bare Shaft Kit For mounting the kit to the pumphead, the pump must not be part of a process line and must be free of lubricant. Place the bare shaft kit (A) on a flat surface with the key end upward. - Page 11 INSTALLATION Remove the coupling guard from the support set. Use a hoist to place the support set on the rear of the pumphead. Place the bare shaft kit (A) with the 3-teeth coupling end into the pump. Make sure the 3 teeth correctly mesh with the holes in the rotor inside the pump.

Page 12: Mounting And Aligning The Drive
INSTALLATION 3.2.2 Mounting and aligning the Drive Use a hoist to lift the drive. Mounting and aligning the drive must be done on the pump’s final operation position. Moving the complete pump assembly after alignment will require re- alignment at the pump’s final operation position. - Page 13 INSTALLATION Place coupling half (A) on the output shaft of the drive and slightly fasten screw (B). Make sure the shaft end has been shifted far enough into the coupling half but will not penetrate into the coupling spider (C). Use a hoist to place the drive on the support set.
- Page 14 INSTALLATION Drive a pin (A) into each drilled hole to fix the horizontal plate in the support set side plates. Use two alignment jigs (D) to check the alignment of the coupling halves in the horizontal plane. Looking from above both coupling halves (C) must touch the edge of both jigs.

Page 15: Maintenance
MAINTENANCE MAINTENANCE Cleaning WARNING When cleaning the pump do not use a high-pressure spraying pistol. This might damage the seal and the bearing. Demounting the Drive Use a hoist to lift the drive. Isolate the drive from the electrical supply. Loosen the fasteners (C) of the coupling guard and remove the coupling guard (B). -
Page 16: Demounting The Bare Shaft Kit
MAINTENANCE Demounting the Bare Shaft Kit When the bare shaft kit is demounted the pumphead will come loose from the support set. The pumphead must be supported in some way, or the pumphead has to be tipped to the front. In the latter case piping has to be disconnected and lubricant has to be removed first. -
Page 17: Disassembling The Bare Shaft Kit
MAINTENANCE Disassembling the Bare Shaft Kit Remove coupling half (B) from the shaft by loosening screw (A). Use a suitable pulling device. Do not put axial load on the bearing if it is to be reused. Remove retaining ring (A). Remove key (B). -
Page 18: Assembling The Bare Shaft Kit
MAINTENANCE Remove bearing (B) from shaft (A). Use a suitable pulling device. Remove seal (A) from hub (B). If the seal is to be replaced pliers can be used. Assembling the Bare Shaft Kit Check the bearing and the seal before reuse. If necessary use a new bearing and a new seal. - Page 19 MAINTENANCE Use a suitable tool (A) to press seal (B) into the hub until it hits the collar. Keep the closed side of the seal upward. Put an excessive amount of grease on the lip of the seal. Clean the contact surfaces (A) for bearing and seal on the shaft (B).

Page 20: Mounting The Bare Shaft Kit Onto The Pump
MAINTENANCE Place key (B) onto the shaft. Place retaining ring (A) into the hub. Mount a coupling half on the shaft end. See section 3.2.1 step 1. Mounting the Bare Shaft Kit onto the Pump For this procedure the pumphead should still be placed on blocks with the support set resting on the pumphead´s rear side. -
Page 21: Mounting The Drive
MAINTENANCE Mounting the Drive Use a hoist to place the drive on the support set. Make sure the spider (B) is placed in one of the coupling halves (A). Slide the drive toward the pumphead. Make sure the coupling halves (A) and the spider mesh correctly. - Page 22 MAINTENANCE Tighten the fasteners (B) to fix the drive to the support set with the correct torque. See section 6.3. Tighten the screws (A) in the coupling halves with the correct torque. See section 6.3. Place coupling guard (B). Place and tighten the fasteners (A) with the correct torque.
