F-1.4) Pressure Test:
Motor Housing -
Before checking the pump for leaks around
the shaft seal, square rings, and cord inlet, the oil level should
be full as described in section F-1.3. Remove pressure valve
(5) from motor housing (2). Apply pipe sealant to pressure
gauge assembly and tighten into pressure valve hole (See
Fig. 2). Pressurize motor housing to 10 P.S.I. Use a soap
solution around the sealed areas and inspect joints for “air
bubbles”. If, after five minutes, the pressure is still holding
constant, and no “bubbles” are observed, slowly bleed the
pressure and remove the gauge assembly. Replace the
Pressure valve using a sealant. If the pressure does not hold,
then the leak must be located.
Seal Chamber -
Remove pipe plug (22) from Bearing Bracket
(21) and check that seal chamber is full of oil. Apply pipe
sealant to pressure gauge assembly and tighten into hole in
bearing bracket (21). Pressurize seal chamber to 20-25 PSI
and check for leaks as outlined above.
F-2) Impeller and Volute Service:
F-2.1) Disassembly and Inspection:
To clean out volute (26) or replace impeller (28), disconnect
power, remove hex nuts (20) and vertically lift motor and seal
assembly from body (26). Clean out body if necessary. Clean
and examine impeller (28), for pitting or wear and replace if
required. If the impeller (28) requires replacing, remove cap
screw (34) and washer. The impeller is keyed onto the shaft
with a square key (33) and to remove, pull impeller straight off
the shaft using a wheel puller, if required. Before reinstalling,
check the motor shaft and impeller bore for damage.
F-2.2) Reassembly:
To install impeller (28), on all models, apply a thin film of oil
to motor shaft and slide impeller straight onto shaft, keeping
keyways lined up. Drive key (33) into keyway. Locate washer,
Apply thread lock primer (such as Loctite® Primer T) let set
per manufactures’ directions. Apply thread locking compound
to cap screw (34) threads, thread cap screw (34) into shaft
and torque to 35 ft. lb. Rotate impeller to check for binding.
Install impeller and motor housing over studs and onto volute
(26). Apply thread locking compound to threads of each stud
(24). Thread nut (20) onto stud (24) and torque to 24 ft. lb.
Check for free rotation of motor and impeller.
F-3) Motor and Bearing Service
F-3.1) Disassembly and Inspection:
To examine or replace the motor (1) and bearings (3) and
(47), disassemble pump, volute and impeller (as outlined in
paragraph F-2.1) and disassemble seal plate and shaft seal
(as outlined in paragraph F-4.1). Drain oil from motor as
outlined in paragraph F-1.3.
Position unit upright, using blocks to avoid resting unit on
shaft. After removal of cable and box assembly (10) from
motor housing (2), remove cable lead wires from motor
lead wires and moisture and temperature sensors wires (if
equipped) from control cable by removing connectors (12)
and (17). The wiring connections should be noted to insure
correct connections when reassembling. Remove cap screws
(19). Vertically lift the outside motor housing (2) from bearing
bracket (21) with lifting strap (7). Inspect square ring (42)
for damage or cuts. Remove the upper motor bolts and lift
upper end bell from motor (1). Examine upper bearing (3) and
replace if required. If replacement is required, remove bearing
(3) from motor shaft using a wheel puller.
NOTE SPECIAL BELLVILLE WASHERS
in upper motor
housing required to compensate for shaft expansion. These
Bellville washers and spacer shims (9) and (29) must be
properly reinstalled to give the required constant down force
on the motor shaft. See Section F-3.3.
Vertically lift stator. Inspect winding for shorts and resistance.
To test the temperature sensor (if equipped), check for
continuity between the black and white wires. If found to be
defective contact a motor service station or Crane Pumps
& Systems service department. Pull motor rotor and lower
bearing (47) vertically from bearing bracket (21). Examine
bearing (47) and replace if required. If replacement is
required, remove bearing (47) from motor shaft using a
wheel puller. Check rotor for wear. If rotor or the stator
windings are defective, the complete motor must be replaced.
While disassembled, check moisture sensor wires (16) (if
equipped), that they are secured to electrodes (18) with
lockwashers (15) and screws (14).
Important !
All parts must be clean before reassembly
.
F-3.2) Reassembly:
Bearings -
When replacing bearings, be careful not to
damage the rotor or shaft threads. (If so equipped, fill notch
should face the rotor core for both upper and lower bearings).
Clean the shaft thoroughly. Apply adhesive compound to
the shaft and press bearing (47) on the motor shaft, position
squarely onto the shaft applying force to the inner race of the
bearing only, until bearing seats against shoulder of the shaft.
Reassemble top bearing (3) in the same manner.
Motor -
Slide lower bearing (47) and motor rotor squarely into
the bearing bracket (21) until bearing seats on the bottom.
Position motor housing and stator into pilot, install bellville
washers and shims (9) and (29) in upper end bell. Position
upper motor end bell aligning holes and thread cap screws
into bearing bracket (21). Torque to 16 ft. lb.. Place all motor
leads above the motor. Position square ring (42) over bearing
bracket (21) and lower housing (2) over motor and into pilot,
being sure to orient motor housing handle parallel to motor
end bell reliefs. Apply thread locking compound to cap screws
(19) threads and install.Torque to 24 ft. lb.
