- Page 10 Installation 4.3 Field Installation of the Pump 4.3.1 Pumping Equipment Handling • Use slow movements when handling the pumping equipment. • Lift the pumping equipment with suitable lifting equipment to support the weight of the complete equipment. • Position the pump where it can be handled without dragging the lower suction disk surface on the floor during the lifting motion.
- Page 11 Installation 4.3.2 Field Installation of the Pump Field installation of the pump should be done with care to prevent damage and ensure proper operation. Check that the shaft rotates freely when driven by hand by removing the protection grid from the core, then reinstall it after verification.
- Page 12 Start-up 5.1 General Considerations After a pump has been properly installed, it is ready to be put into service. However, before initial start-up, the following considerations are recommended: • Check and follow motor manufacturer's lubrication instructions. • Check that the shaft turns freely when operated by hand. If it does not rotate freely. Check installation instructions.
- Page 13 Start-up 5.2.2 Instructions for the Connection of Three Phase Electric Motors To make a delta connection, in the electric motor box are placed the bridges connecting: U with Z, V with X, W with Y. The wires from the electric panel to the motor junction box connect the terminals: U to U, V to V. W to W (figure 12-a). To make the connection (star) connect together the three terminals: X-Y-Z of the junction box AND connect the terminals U-V- W with the corresponding terminals U-V-W on the electrical panel.
- Page 14 Maintenance CAUTION 6.1 General Considerations • Adequate and periodic maintenance of the pumping equipment is essential to obtain a good level of performance and an extension of the service life. • For the motor, the required service intervals and the type of maintenance to be performed are described in the MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE described in the respective motor manual provided by the manufacturer, attached to this manual.
- Page 15 Maintenance 6.5 Impeller Clearance Adjustment WARNING Disconnect electrical power to the motor to prevent accidental starting of the pumping equipment and possible personal injury. 6.5.1 Impeller Backlash Adjustment Using Magnetic Base Dial Gauge 1.- Remove the grid from the plug cover. 2.- Remove the flexible body from the coupling hub.
- Page 16 Maintenance 6.5.2 Impeller Clearance Adjustment Using Calibrated Blades 1.- Remove the grid from the plug cover. 2.- Remove the flexible body from the coupling hub. 3.- Loosen the shaft adjustment bolts (fig. 14) until a clearance of about 5 to 8 mm is obtained. 4.- Tighten the bolts of the Bearing Housing - Cantilever Support (fig.

- Page 18 Useful Tips for trouble-free operation 8.1 Normal Operating Conditions This type of equipment can run dry for a long time without damage since it does NOT use a mechanical seal or a support bushing, elements that require lubrication and cooling. In some applications when the suction submergence is insufficient and the equipment stops pumping a continuous flow and starts pumping intermittently, the vibrations can increase their amplitude generating in turn an increase in the temperature of the bearings, if this condition remains for some time it is convenient to stop the equipment to prevent premature failures in the...
