FRICTION BEARINGS:  

The friction bearings are found in the cover of pumps (always) 
and also in the case of double/triple intermediate pipe pumps, 
in the intermediate couplings in the intermediate couplings 
These bearings must always be lubricated and cooled. There 
are three types of lubrication: 
1. Lubricated with pumping fluid: If the pumped fluid is clean 
(without particles in suspension) and non-aggressive, the 
friction bearings are lubricated with the pumped fluid. 
Lubricant is not required. 

2. Lubricated with external fluid PUMPS 
WITH EXTERIOR AUXILIARY 

CONNECTION IN THE BASE PLATE: For this purpose there 
is an adapter in the base plate which the customer will inject 
with clean water or another fluid compatible with the pumped 
fluid at a pressure of approximately 3 kg/cm

(manometer). 

The flow necessary per bearing can be seen in the chart in 
annex 

9.2

3. Lubricated WITH AUTOMATIC 
LUBRICATION PUMP IN THE BASE PLATE: 

The auxiliary pump has a container with grease to lubricate 
the bearings. We recommend using lytic-based lubrication 
grease with antioxidant additives, of consistency 2, in line with 
DIN-51502 class K2K. The auxiliary pump does not require 
maintenance, although the container must contain grease at 
all times. 

The automatic pump container must be filled 
with grease before starting up. 

Excessive wear of the bearings may cause friction of 
the metal parts, thus locally increasing the 

temperature. The pump shall have forced refrigeration from 
the pumping fluid if it is clean, or with exterior lubrication of 
clean liquid if the pumping fluid is dirty. In the latter case, the 
plant operator must maintain a permanent input of clean liquid 
to ensure the correct maintenance of the bearing refrigeration 
fluid and conducts.

 

7.3 Emptying/Drainage 

The emptying and drainage of pumps used to expel 
liquids which are a health hazard must be carried out 
in such a way as there is no risk to people or to the 

environment, in line with legislation. If necessary, use 
protective clothing and mask.  

7.4 Dismantling 

 

7.4.1 Fundamental 

instructions/observations 

Before dismantling, ensure the pump cannot 
be started up. 

Note 

The suction and impulsion valves must be closed. 

The pump frame must have returned to environmental 
temperature. 

The pump frame must be emptied. 

Comply with all safety measures in accordance with 

7.1

When working on the motor, also take into account the rules 
and instructions of the manufacturer. 

7.4.2 Coupling 

Motor pump coupling 

- Release 

the 

motor attachment screws and remove the 

motor along with the male coupling. 

The rubber plugs can then be extracted from the female 
coupling. 

If you need to release the coupling, use an extractor. 
Never bang in order to extract, as this may cause serious 
damage to the bearings. 

Intermediate coupling 

Release the cover halves on both ends of the coupling. 

Uncouple the two shafts by gently and uniformly banging 
the coupling with a plastic hammer. 

7.4.3 Mechanical 

seal (when fitted) 

In order to have access to the mechanical seal, it is necessary 
to dismount almost the whole pump as described in point 

7.4.5

 

(until the seal dismantling section is reached). Once this 
process is complete: 

Note 

Release the joining screws between fixing ring and cover 
and slide the fixing ring carefully together with the 
drainage sleeve along the shaft towards pump side until 
the ring is taken out. 

-  Release the keep pins from the rechangable bushing 

and slide this together with the mobile part of the 
mechanical seal along the shaft towards pump side until 
bushing is removed.  

Note 

-  Slide (towards pump side) and remove carefully the 

assembly composed by mechanical seal cover and the 
static part of the mechanical seal. Once this assembly is 
removed proceed to dismantling of the mechanical seal. 

Note 

-  Release the joining Allen screws between cover and 

mechanical seal cover. 

Release the static part of the seal pushing from top side 
of the mechanical seal cover taking care for not to touch 
the rubbing face of the seal.   

7.4.4 

Packing (where fitted) 

In order to access the seal, first dismount almost all the pump 
as described in point - (until the packing dismantling section is 
reached). Once this process is complete: 

Release the packing gland. 

Slide and extract the cover with the packing along the 
shaft towards the pump side.
