c) Install the stationary seal into the housing hub with the smaller face entering the hub first. 

For the Silicon Carbide Stationary Seal design

 (

Figures 18 and 21

) - install the front half of the 

stationary seal into the housing hub with the smaller face side first. Then install the rear half of the 
stationary seal.

d) Install the stationary seal o-ring (do 

not

 lubricate this o-ring) onto the back of the stationary seal. 

Improper fit may cause leakage or seal damage. 

e) Place the retaining ring on the housing hub, aligning the holes in the retaining ring with the holes 

in the hub. 

f) Thread the four retaining ring bolts through the holes in the stationary seal retaining ring and into 

the housing hub. Alternately tighten the bolts so the retaining ring secures evenly. Uneven tighten-
ing could result in  seal damage. Check for proper torque on page 
5.

g) SINGLE FLANGE: Carefully slide the pump housing over 

the pump shaft and back against the flange support. 

The 

stationary seal may be damaged if it makes hard con-
tact with the pump shaft.

 If the pump housing does 

not slide into the flange support easily, widen the 
flange support by driving a screwdriver into the slot 
on top (

Figure 13

). Slide the pump housing  all the 

way into the flange support until the shoulder of 
the housing is against the flange support. Remove 
the screwdriver. If the pump has a double mechani-
cal seal or water cascade option, make sure that the 
water pipe holes in the pump housing are aligned with 
the holes in the flange support. While holding the pump 
housing against the flange support, tighten the clamping bolt 
in the flange support.

  DOUBLE FLANGE: Carefully slide the pump housing (10) over the pump shaft (7) and back against 

the flange support (2). 

Note: the stationary seal may be damaged if it makes hard contact with the 

pump shaft.

 Install the housing bolts (29) and washers (30). Tighten to the proper torque listed on 

page 4. Install the seal water pipe (if supplied), by threading it into the housing and tighten with a 
pair of pliers.  Align the discharge piping with the discharge outlet.

h) Install the seal water pipes (for double mechanical seals 

or water cascade option), by threading them into the 
housing and tighten with the pliers.

i)  You are now ready to install the rotating seal assembly. 

First lubricate the seal o-ring with a food grade lubri-
cant (unless the o-ring material is EPDM, then only wa-
ter should be used for lubrication). Place the seal o-ring 
inside the rotating seal. 

j) Now place the seal washer into the rotating seal. 
k) Next install the one end of the seal spring into the rotat-

ing seal making sure that the tab of the spring is in the 
slot on the rotating seal. (

Note:

 for frame sizes 254 and 

up, the larger end of the seal spring goes into the rotating seal 

Figure 14

)

l)  Finally, install the tab on the other end of the seal spring into the hole on the front seal driver 

(

Figure 14

). The rotating seal assembly is now ready to be installed onto the pump shaft. (Note: for 

pumps with a 735 seal, the larger end of the seal spring goes into the rotating seal.)
