The Watson-Marlow MasoSine grants no warranty on this documentation as well as no implicit warranties on commercially customary quality and suitability for a certain application. The Watson-Marlow MasoSine undertakes no liability for errors contained in it or consequential damage occurring by chance arising due to the design, performance and the use of this documentation.
Operation Guidelines The following guidelines are important to the proper operation of your MasoSine Pump: 1. Check to be sure that the drive shaft rotation is compatible with the desired rotation of the pump shaft. 2. The suction and discharge nozzles on the pump housing will always remain 90° apart. However, the pump housing can be rotated in 45°...
Warning: Exceeding the maximum speed rating for your MasoSine Pump could result in severe personal injury or loss of life. Since some pumpages may be adversely affected by operation at high rotor speeds, we recommend that you contact Watson-Marlow MasoSine with pertinent application information before running at or near these speeds.

Wet End Disassembly, cont. 1. Remove the front cover, item 400, by removing the five wing nuts, item 441, and sliding the cover off of the front cover studs, item 450. NOTE: Do not use a screwdriver or other prying instrument to separate the cover from the housing.
Wet End Assembly 1. Place the pump housing, item 300, onto the power frame, item 600, by fitting the opening in the back of the pump housing over the shaft, item 200. NOTE: Be sure that the mating flanges of the power frame and pump housing are free of any debris or nicks, as this may cause misalignment of the rotor.
Wet End Disassembly, cont. 10. The front cover o-ring, item 430, can then be placed into the groove on the front of the pump housing. Applying a food grade lubricant to the o-ring will keep it from slipping out of the groove. 11.
Power End Disassembly, cont. 3. Remove the bearing housing mounting cap screws, item 640, which connect the bearing housing, item 700, to the power frame, item 600. The bearing housing may then be removed by pulling the shaft, item 200, and bearing housing away from the power frame. NOTE: Be sure to support the bearing housing such that the shaft will not be damaged when pulling it through the hole in the power frame.

Power End Assembly, cont. 5. With the bearing still hot, tighten the bearing locknut, item 750, onto the shaft, only enough to eliminate any float between the shaft and the bearing housing. NOTE: The holes for the set screws must be facing upward or out of the bearing housing when the bearing locknut is installed.
Seal System - Disassembly and Assembly Lip Seal Reference the isometric drawing in for parts identification while following the lip seal Figure 4 disassembly and assembly steps. Figure 4 – Lip Seal Disassembly / Assembly Lip Seal Disassembly 1. Using a punch and hammer, remove the single lip seal, item 510, located in the rear of the lip seal housing, item 506.
Seal System - Disassembly and Assembly, cont. 2. Place the seal housing in a press with the removal holes at the top of the housing. This side of the seal housing will face into the wet end of the pump. Insert one support ring, item 520, into the seal housing such that the flat surface of the ring rests on the step in the housing.
Seal System – Disassembly and Assembly, cont. O-ring Seal Disassembly 1. Remove the dynamic radial o-ring, item 513, from the inner diameter of the o-ring seal housing, item 620. O-ring Seal Assembly 1. Replace the dynamic radial o-ring, item 513, by placing it into the groove on the inner diameter of the o-ring seal housing, item 620.
This will mate the stationary ceramic face to the carbon face. 5. For instructions regarding the disassembly and assembly procedures for the double lip seal or the o- ring seal with flush, please contact Watson-Marlow MasoSine at +49 (0)7062 9560-0 Visit our website at www.masosine.com...
Shimming for Proper Shaft Location Proper shaft location will insure that the rotor is positioned in the center of the wet end of the pump. Failure to position the rotor correctly may result in excessive and premature wear to the wet end parts. Here are the steps necessary to shim your MasoSine Pump.
Scrapergate and Scrapergate Guide Installation Instructions The scrapergate has been designed with an angle on each of its ends and a channel on the discharge side for optimum performance and life span. It is used to separate the suction and discharge sides of the pump.
Scrapergate and Scrapergate Guide Installation Instructions When inserting the scrapergate into the scrapergate guide, the markings on the ends of both parts must match. This ensures that the wider side of the scrapergate will contact the wider section of the scrapergate guide.
Pump Housing Rotation Instructions The pump housing can be rotated to locate the inlet and outlet nozzles in the three different positions shown in . This allows for six different operating conditions based on the rotation of the pump Figure 11 shaft.
Bearing Oil Lubrication Recommendations There are three plugs located in the bearing housing as shown in below. To determine if the Figure 12 bearings are properly lubricated, remove the level plug. If oil is not visible, remove the fill plug and fill the bearing housing until oil is visible through the level plug hole.
Assembly Instructions for Installation of Front Cover Hinge The front cover hinge is available for the MR-135 and the MR-150 MasoSine Pump. It allows for the front cover to be hinged to the pump housing for easier maintenance. When assembling the front cover hinge, follow the steps below and refer to and the associated parts list.

How to use the Removal Tools Removal tools are supplied with every new MasoSine Pump. The tools are shaped like skate blades and have a pin extending from one end (see ). These tools are used for removing the rear liner Figure 14 and the seal housing FRONT VIEW...
How to use the Removel Tools To use the tool to remove the rear liner from the pump housing, simply insert the hooked ends of the tools into the slotted ends of the liner and pull forward (See ). Pull on both tools with even Figure 16 pressure when removing the liner to prevent the liner from wedging in the pump housing.

“dust – or gas – explosive areas”! Zone classification The Watson-Marlow MasoSine - Pumps can be used in explosive areas of the zone 1 / 21. This corresponds to the category 2 G / D. It is expressly forbidden to use the pump(s) in the zone 0! Classification of the ex-atmospheres A distinction is made between dust and gas explosive atmospheres.
Page 51
Grounding the pump All supplied pumps are equipped with a grounding option. In particular in ex-areas, the pump must be grounded by fixing a grounding cable to the corresponding position (see diagram). In addition to the grounding of the pump, the motor also needs to be grounded! If the drive is not grounded, the pump aggregate may not be operated.
Please use the following oil type that is applicable for your application! If the pump is to be used in an area that is combustible where ATEX applies, the oil viewing glass is replaced by a screwed plug. Standard first filling of Watson-Marlow MasoSine Pumps • For –10°C to 60°C Klüberoil 4 UH 1-220 N (lube oil for the food and pharmaceutical industry)
