Where a conflict exists between the contents herein and the actual equipment supplied, the user must make an engineering judgment, else contact KBL. Kirloskar Brothers Ltd reserves the right to change the construction and design of the products at any time without being obliged to change products already supplied earlier.
Lifting: If a pump or a complete pump unit should be lifted, the slings should be fixed as shown in Figure 1. Figure 1. Lifting instruction NOTE: Proper care should be taken to protect pump and/or prime mover and/or paint at contact area of sling or rope at the time of lifting.
1.6 Storage: In case the pump is not immediately being used, the pump shaft must be rotated manually once in a month to prevent pitting on bearing surfaces. 1.6.1 Temporary Storage for up to six weeks: If the pump unit is not to be used immediately it should be stored carefully in a horizontal/vertical position, in a sheltered, dry location.
2. General 2.1 Pump Description: Kirloskar IN-IL pump is of vertical execution, back pullout design which enables to remove the rotating unit of pump for inspection and repair without disturbing the pipe connections and motor. Pumps when properly installed and given due care in operation and maintenance should satisfactorily perform for long period of time.

2.3.2 Field of application: Ballast and Bilge. Air conditioning chilled water. Main fire-fighting. Bilge transfer. Waste water recycling. Portable water supply. Distilling plant feed systems. Main and auxiliary engine cooling. Main boiler feed and condensate. 2.4 Construction: 2.4.1 Pump casing: The casing is of single volute design with suction and discharge connections situated "in- line".
2.5 Re-use: The pump may only be used for other applications after prior consultation with Kirloskar Brothers Ltd or your supplier. Since the lastly pumped medium is not always known, the following instructions should be observed: Flush the pump properly.
3. Installation 3.1 Safety: These instructions should be read carefully before installing the pump. • This pump is designed for circulation of sea water or other suitable HVAC media. It is not suitable for hazardous, corrosive or flammable liquids. • Pump must not be started until all electrical connections are in place.
• For spacer coupling no need to remove the motor stool. only remove the spacer coupling. • Remove the hex. nut from casing studs holding the bearing housing (24000) to pump casing (11800). • Slightly pull out the driving unit till impeller (15100) clears the pump casing (11800). •...
• Mount the pair of angular contact ball bearings. Please refer to any standard bearing catalogue for back to back arrangement. Caution: Use arbor press while fitting the bearings. However, it is recommended that bearings should be heated in oil bath at temperature 70-80° C and then fitted.
4.2 Direction of rotation of drive/driven shafts: Observe directional arrow. Testing of a unit filled with hydraulic fluid: Switching the unit briefly on and off prevents damage in the case of the wrong direction of rotation. If the direction of rotation is not correct, change connecting wire of motor to match with the rotation of pump.
5. Maintenance 5.1 Routine Inspections: Routine inspections should be made on a regular basis. Inspections made while pump is running should reveal potential failures. A) Inspect motor bearings for any sign of temperature rise. Temperature should not exceed 160°F. Temperature rise may indicate the early stages of bearing problems. B) Listen for any unusual noise.
6. Cause of failures A. Failure: - No Discharge Causes: - • Air leakage in suction line. • Suction lift higher than pump is designed. • Suction pipe block. • Pump not primed. • NPSH available too low. • Incorrect direction of rotation. •...
