Introduction
We recommend that:
Your control equipment should monitor the current consumed by the pump-motor, in order to determine
when the torque limiter has tripped.
When the torque limiter has tripped, your control equipment should switch off the pump-motor; operation in
the decoupled state may cause excessive wear to the torque limiter.
The torque limiter is enclosed in the coupling cover which has two removable coupling cover guards (14). You can
remove these covers to reset the torque limiter and recouple the pump- motor to the pump (refer to
).
The coupling hub used in the torque limiter (see
) is identical to those used in the EDP80 and EDP160 drive
coupling. See attached amendment for more details on the torque limiter or coupling.

Pump frame
. The pump is vertically mounted in a robust frame (6), which has lifting-bolts (5). The frame on
EDP250 and EDP400 pumps has lower cross-members (11) which can be used to move the pump with a fork-lift truck.
The cooling-water and purge gas connections are on a services panel (8) on the frame. The TCV (7) is fitted to the
rear of the services panel.
Fixing holes (9) in the frame can be used to secure the pump frame in its operating position.
