Installation
Mount the Pump
To avoid serious injury or death from toxic fluid or
fumes:
• Never move or lift a pump under pressure. If
dropped, the fluid section may rupture. Always
follow the Pressure ReliefProcedure, page 20 ,
before moving or lifting the pump.
NOTICE
The pump is heavy. To prevent damage from
dropping, always use a lift to move the pump. Do
not use the manifolds to lift the pump. Use at least
two straps.
1. For all mountings, be sure the pump is secured
with screws through the mounting feet (D) and
through the mounting bracket or compressor box
on the gear box. See Dimensions, page 27 .
NOTICE
To prevent pump damage, use all eight
fasteners.
2. Make sure the mounting surface is flat and that
the pump doesn’t wobble.
3. For ease ofoperation and service, mount the
pump so fluid inlet and fluid outlet ports are easily
accessible.
Mounting a pump without a Gearmotor
A pump without a Verder gearbox and motor will
require a mounting platform to provide support
for the customer-supplied motor and gearbox
and provide alignment with the pump alignment
housing (116) and drive shaft (112) without putting
strain on the mounting platform or pump. See
Dimensions, page 27 for assistance in fabricating a
mounting platform.
