1.2 General Description UNIBLOC-PD is a positive displacement rotary lobe pump. It may be supplied with a drive unit (figure 1.0-1.2) or without a drive unit (figure 1.3). When supplied with a drive unit it is called UNIBLOC-PD ASSEMBLY. Figure 1.0 indicates various parts of an assembly.
1.2.4 Marking – Standard Standard marking is machined on the side of pumps’ bearing housing. Figure 1.3 See figure 1.4 for details. Pump size is machined on rotor housing next to the ports. Figure 1.4 8 UNIBLOC-PD Operation & Service Manual: PD200-576...
Do not exceed the pump’s maximum operating pressure, speed or temperature. Do not modify the operating parameters/ system for which the unit was originally supplied for without first consulting your local supplier. Pump installation and operation must always comply with prevailing health and safety regulations. UNIBLOC-PD Operation & Service Manual: PD200-576 9...

If an integrated safety relief valve is installed, do not allow extended periods of recirculation through the valve. UNIBLOC-PUMP can either integrate a safety valve with the front cover, or supply one as a separate unit. Please contact your supplier.
Selecting a clean, dry storage location free from vibration. In a moist or dusty atmosphere, further protect the pump/as- sembly with suitable cover. • Rotating the pump or pump assembly by hand every week, to prevent bearing damage. UNIBLOC-PD Operation & Service Manual: PD200-576 11...
Double mechanical flushed seal pressure: 1bar (15psi) higher than the discharge pressure of the pump ATTENTION Single mechanical with flushed housing max pressure: 0.5bar (7psi) Minimum flow rate required per seal: 1lpm (0.3gpm) or a rate that keeps seal temperature within 5°C (9°F) 12 UNIBLOC-PD Operation & Service Manual: PD200-576...
In this case, the seal flush chambers are filled through grease nipples with approved grease that is suitable for use with the pumped media. Unibloc recommends using Lubri- plate Synxtreme FG-2 calcium sulfonate complex grease.
Always use rubber gloves and protective goggles if handling caustic substances. The rotors and shaft seals in the pump have been selected for specific temperature and pressure conditions. Ver- ATTENTION ify with UNIBLOC-PUMP or the documentation supplied with the pump that the operating parameters are not exceeded. ATTENTION Always rinse well with clean water after using cleaning agent.
When applications exceed constant service temperatures of 180º C (356º F) a vent and high temperature lubricant must be used. For such cases, contact UNIBLOC-PUMP or your supplier for an adequate service schedule.
These can be replaced with other materials upon request. UNIBLOC-PD 501 Series has front loaded seals. This seal comes with different seal face combinations. (See drawing G812B for details.) Maximum shaft rotational speed for this seal is 2.4 m/s (7.8 ft/s) or 800rpm and the maximum service pressure should not exceed 15 bar (220 psig).
Seal Faces so that their lapped sealing surfaces do not get scratched. If not being replaced, the Drive Collars may remain on the shafts, otherwise loosen the set screws and slide them off the shafts. UNIBLOC-PD 500 Series may use wear sleeves. See section 4.4.4.1 sketch.
4.4.1.5 UNIBLOC 501, 551, 576 Front Loaded Single Mechanical Seal Removal Remove the Shaft O-rings (item 27 in Figure 4.4.1) located behind the shaft splines. Use two long flat head screwdrivers 180º apart to pry the Shaft Sleeve out of the Rotor Housing. Use razor blade or sharp flat head screwdriver to remove the Rotating Seal Face from the Shaft Sleeve.
4.4.1.6 UNIBLOC 500, 550, 575 Front Loaded Single Mechanical Seal Removal Remove the Shaft O-rings (item 27 in Figure 4.4.1) located behind the shaft splines. Use two long flat head screwdrivers 180º apart to pry the Shaft Sleeve out of the Rotor Housing. Use razor blade or sharp flat head screwdriver to remove the Rotating Seal Face from the Shaft Sleeve.
4.4.1. The drive collar is different, however. The flushed single mechanical is not available for UNIBLOC 200-0, 200, 250, and 275. See section 3.3 for more information about flushing systems. 4.4.2.1 Flushed Single Mechanical Seal Removal Disconnect the flush tubing from the flush housings (55).
(primary & secondary) as the Single Mechanical Seals discussed in section 2.1.2. The Drive Collar and Rotating Seal Face are different, however. The flushed Double Mechanical Seal is not available for UNIBLOC 200-0, 200, 250, and 275. See section 3.3 for more information about flushing systems.
10 bar (150 psig). The seal does not require external lubrication and can be run dry for short periods. It is available for all models except UNIBLOC 200-0, 200, 250, and 275 which has the two lips only and not the two shaft o-rings.
4.4.4.1 UNIBLOC 200-575 Double O-Lip™ Seal Removal Loosen the stud nuts (item 43 in Figure 4.4.1). Remove the rotor housing (item 1 in Figure 4.4.1) by pulling on the ports or by tapping gently with a rubber mallet. The entire seal with all components will come off attached to the rotor housing. Remove the Bolts and Seal Retaining Rings.
(115 psig). The o-ring seal must never be allowed to run dry as they will be damaged. This seal uses the pumped product as a lubricant. 4.4.5.1 UNIBLOC 200-275 Single O-Ring Seal Removal Loosen and remove the acorn nuts from the Rotor Housing. Loosen the Threaded Studs by locking two M6 nuts against each other on the exposed threaded stud ends.
4.4.5.3 UNIBLOC 300-575 Single O-Ring Seal Removal Loosen and remove the bolts from the Threaded Studs. Remove the Rotor Housing by pulling on the ports or by tapping gen- tly with a rubber mallet. All seal parts will come off with the housing. Remove the Seal Retainer Rings by unscrewing the Bolts.
See section 4.4.7 for completing the installation. It is imperative that the cavity between the o-rings is filled with grease or the flushing system is reconnected before operation is resumed. UNIBLOC-PD Operation & Service Manual: PD200-576 27...
4.4.6.3 UNIBLOC 300 Series Front Loaded Double O-Ring™ Seal Removal If the rotors were removed, the rotor housing does not need to be taken off. The Double O-Ring Seal Cartridge can be removed by placing screwdrivers between the rotor housing and gearbox and pushing them out.
(20). Make sure the alignment mark on the rotor housing lines up with the one on the bearing housing (6). The rotor hous- ing must make firm contact with the bearing housing. On UNIBLOC models 300-575, fasten the hex nuts (43) with the split washer (44) on the stud ends and tighten in a cross pattern.
2000 hours of service, whichever occurs first. When applications exceed constant service temper- atures of 1800C (3560F) a vent and high temperature lubricant must be used. For such cases, contact UNIBLOC-PUMP or an authorized service center for an adequate service schedule.
Insert the housing studs (15) and secure them with the split washers (44) and hex nuts (43). The UNIBLOC 200, 250, and 275 have one piece studs (15) and do not use items (43) and (44). To tighten these studs lock two M6 nuts against each other on the stud end.
Stand the pump on the splined ends and fill the bearing housing cavity with approved oil listed in section 5.2. Place the oil seal(s) (24; 24 & 45 for UNIBLOC 200-275) in the bearing housing cover, text side out. Place the o-ring (25) into the groove on the rear side of the bearing housing.
