Installation and connection
6.1 Setting up the pump
Pumps can be installed horizontally or
vertically, with the bearing pointing upward.
Caution!
Improper installation position can
result in damage to the shaft seal
and bearing.
Refer to the order data sheet for
the proper installation position!
Warning!
Danger of burns and scalding!
To avoid burns and personal injury,
protective equipment according to
EN 809 must be provided at the site
of installation when the temperature
of pumped liquids exceeds 60 °C.
6.2 Foundation
The type of foundation depends on the size of
the pump and pump unit and conditions at the
site of installation.
Refer to our dimension sheets and unit
drawings for precise pump and unit
dimensions.
The foundation may take the form of a
concrete foundation or a weight-bearing frame
constructed of steel, for example.
Regardless of foundation type, the foundation
must be designed so that it can absorb the
weight of the pump unit along the entire
surface area.
6.2.1 Steel frame configuration
A steel frame must be designed so the entire
surface of the base plate contacts the frame
and can be fastened with screws or welded in
place.
Caution!
If the base plate is supported only
at isolated points, this will cause the
pump unit to sag in the center or
warp. This will affect alignment of
the pump unit and can lead to high
noise emissions and damage!
6.2.2 Characteristics of a concrete
foundation
The foundation must be horizontal, even, and
clean and fully absorb the foundation load.
A concrete foundation must be designed so
the entire base plate contacts the foundation
and can be fastened with suitable screws (refer
to unit drawings for connection dimensions).
Caution!
If the base plate is supported only
at isolated points, this will cause the
pump unit to sag in the center or
warp. This will affect alignment of
the pump unit and can lead to high
noise emissions and damage!
6.2.3 Fastening the pump unit to
the concrete foundation
►
After aligning the pump unit on the
foundation, uniformly tighten the
attachment screws by incrementally
tightening each of the screws.
6.2.4 Characteristics of a concrete
foundation for cast base
plates
When building forms for the concrete
foundation, make sure that there will be
adequate space between the upper edge of
the completed foundation block and the lower
edge of the base plate for the purpose of
aligning the pump unit and packing with mortar
compound.
►
After aligning the pump unit on the
foundation, uniformly tighten the
attachment screws by incrementally
tightening each of the screws.
►
The cured concrete foundation must be
horizontal, even, and clean.
►
Any oil present on the foundation must be
removed.
►
Clean and blow with air the recessed
anchor holes for the foundation screws.
►
Before bringing the pump unit into place,
roughen and clean the surface of the
concrete foundation in order to ensure
good adhesion between the foundation
block and mortar compound.
