7.10 Overhaul of pump
The following items should be checked:
1.
Wearing Ring Clearance:
The original diametral clearance between the impellers and case wearing rings for different materi-
als is shown on
. Clearance between casing wearing rings and optional im-
peller wearing rings is also shown. When hydraulic performance is reduced substantially, the casing
rings and/or impeller rings should be replaced. The diametrical clearance on one impeller should
not exceed the clearance on the other impeller in the same pump by more than .003".
NOTICE:
1.
Replacement impeller rings are furnished .021" to .039" oversize and must be turned to
size after mounting on impeller. See wearing ring chart below.
2.
The diametrical clearance on one impeller should not exceed the clearance on the oth-
er in the same pump by more than .003 ".
3.
The fit of the impeller hubs on the shaft (not illustrated) is a tap to a slip fit per chart
below.
