- If the pump is required to be operated apart from the conditions set forth in the purchase order, please contact with Boulton Pumps. Boulton Pumps does not assume any responsibility for any damages that may arise from operation of the pump beyond the specified conditions without written consent.
1.4. RECYCLING For products and arts, which will not be used and scraped, use the local or private waste collection services. If it is not possible, consult the nearest authorized service centre of Boulton Pumps.
IL pumps are horizontal, radially split volute casing, single stage, end suction centrifugal pumps with closed impeller. 2.1.2. Application Areas IL series pumps are suitable for clean or slightly contaminated (max. 20 mg/dm ) liquids with low viscosities and temperatures up to 140ºC. The main application areas, among others, are: •...
If any damage has occurred during transportation, notify Boulton Pumps and shipping company about it immediately. Check whether all materials in the shipping list have been delivered. If there is any missing article, advise Boulton Pumps. Remove the liquid inside the pump, for preventing corrosion due to transportation.
Accelerating and braking operations during the hoisting should not be performed in such a way that may be dangerous for the working personnel. The pump or pump group should be hoisted as shown in the Fig. 1a or Fig. 1b in order to avoid from any deformation. (When the group is hoisted as a whole, never use the suspension hook of the electric motor).
2.3.2. Preparation for Installation Prior to installation of the pump in place: Suction and delivery flanges should be cleaned thoroughly. 2.3.3. Installation Site The pump must be installed in a frost and dust-free, well-ventilated and non-explosive environment. There should be sufficient space around the pump being installed to allow easy access for maintenance of the pump as well as sufficient space above the pump to hoist it when required.
2.3.4.4. Auxiliary pipe connections and accesories Depending on the application auxiliary pipe connection (drainage etc. necessary for the pumping system) and/or accessories to check the operating conditions (pressure gages, temperature gages etc.) may be made up and laid. Pressure and vacuum gauges must be properly anchored and connected at the measuring points located on the pump flanges by means of or on the pipes close to the flanges approximately 8 mm diameter tubing with pig tail configuration to lessen pressure fluctuation.
2.3.4.6. Electrical Connections The electrical motors have to be built in accordance with EN 60034-1. Enclosures of electrical motors and control systems on the pump unit shall as a minimum have protection in accordance with EN 60529 IP22. However, in determining the degree of protection of enclosures of electrical motors and control systems on the pump unit the operating and environmental conditions must be taken into consideration.
In the case of three-phase induction motors with Y - ∆ connection it must be ensured that the changeover points between star and delta follow on from one another very quickly. Longer changeover times may result in pump damage (Table 3). Motor Power Y –set time ≤...
Vibration on pump. High noise level. 2.4.3. Shut Down the Pump Slowly close the shut-off valve in the discharge line. You may shut down pump without closing the shut-off valve if there is a device for water hammer protection on the discharge line or the water hammer is not a considerable level.
The sharp areas on the impeller edges can injure. Use protective gloves. Remove the impeller (050) with lever or screwdriver, etc. Remove the impeller key (210). Use rust remover solvent, if necessary. Remove the O-ring (420). The O-rings used after dismantling the pump must always be replaced. ...
The mechanical seal diameter and soft packing cross section of IL type pumps are given below Table 5. Pump Dimension Mechanical Seal S (mm) Group Diameter Ø Table 5 Note: Different types of mechanical seals with different diameters can be applied for various applications. Ask Boulton Pumps for more information.
2.6. SPARE PARTS BOULTON PUMPS guarantees to supply the spare parts for IL type pumps for 10 years. You can provide any spare parts easily. Lets us know the following details on the name-plate, when you order spare parts.

POSSIBLE CAUSES REMEDIES If there is no obstacle leading to clogging in the suction, check friction loss on the suction line and use suction pipe with large diameter, if required. If Suction depth too much. the static suction depth is too much, you should either increase the liquid level in the suction reservoir or move the pump to a lower level.
2.8. EXPECTED NOISE VALUES Sound pressure level (dB) * Power of motor Pump with motor (Kw) 1450 rpm 2900 rpm < 0.55 0.75 18.5 Table 9 (*) Without protective sound hood, measured at a distance of 1 m directly above the driven pump, in a free space above a sound reflecting surface. (*) These values apply if the pump is operated in normal ordered operating values without cavitation.
