Before servicing pump, disconnect
electrical power source, carefully relieve
all pressure and drain all fluids from
pump and connected piping.
DESCRIPTION
Before servicing pump, disconnect electrical power source.
The
QIM/QDB Mixer Series
closed-coupled pumps are made up of two sections, power or drive
section and the liquid end or pump section.
The pump is mounted to the frame of the drive motor by means of an adapter, and is coupled
to the motor shaft. The impeller mounts on the stub shaft and is retained by one of the three
methods. The casing is clamped to the adapter, greatly simplifying removal, and also permitting
positioning of the discharge outlet through 360º. The external, balanced seal assures long seal
life. The drive motor is mounted on a frame having adjustable legs providing simple installation
and leveling.
INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
UNPACKING EQUIPMENT
Check the contents and all wrapping when unpacking your equipment. Inspect all parts for
damage that may have occurred during shipping. Report any damage to the carrier.
LOCATION AND INSTALLATION
The pump unit should be located as near as possible to the liquid source and in a position where
the suction piping can be short and direct with a minimum number of elbows and fittings. It
should also be readily accessible for inspection and cleaning.
The pump unit as received from the factory is ready for installation. To install it, attach a hoist if
necessary, loosen the set screws in the adjusting leg brackets, and individually adjust the legs
until the pump is leveled. Tighten the set screws.
Attach the suction and discharge piping. Be sure suction and
discharge piping is properly supported to avoid any strain on the
pump casing.
