Performance
Maintenance
Make certain
that unit is
disconnected from power source before
attempting to service or remove any
component!
NOTE:
The pump casing should be
removed and inspected periodically to
insure that any foreign material is not
clogging internal pump parts. This unit
is equipped with a dual volute pump
casing. One of the volutes runs 180°, all
the way from the side opposite the
discharge into the discharge through a
completely enclosed passageway. If
foreign material clogs this area, it can
be dislodged by using a wire or long
spring.
MECHANICAL SEAL REPLACEMENT
Refer to Figure 1
IMPORTANT:
Always replace both seal
seat (Ref. No. 8) and seal head (Ref. No.
9) to ensure proper mating of
components!
1. Unthread fasteners (Ref. No. 6) and
remove casing (Ref. No. 14) and
casing seal (Ref. No. 7) from adapter
(Ref. No. 5).
2. Unscrew impeller fastener (Ref. No.
13), and impeller (Ref. No. 11)
separately by turning each
counterclockwise.
NOTE
: Most motors use an open end
7/16” wrench across flats on rear of
motor shaft (remove bearing cap for
access) to prevent shaft from turning.
Other motor shafts have a screwdriver
slot instead of flats.
3. Unscrew fasteners (Ref. Nos. 4 & 18)
and remove adapter, foot (Ref. No.
19), and handle (Ref. No. 3) from
motor (Ref. No.1) mounting face.
Seal head will come loose at this
time.
4. Push seal seat from adapter recess
with a screwdriver.
5. Clean adapter recess before
inserting new seal seat.
6. Carefully wipe polished surface
of new seal seat with a clean cloth.
7. Wet rubber portion of seal seat with
a light coating of soapy water.
8. Press new seal seat squarely into
cavity in adapter. If seal seat does
not press squarely into cavity, it can
be adjusted in place by pushing on
it with a piece of pipe. Always use a
piece of cardboard between pipe
and seal seat to avoid scratching
seal seat. (This is a lapped surface
and must be handled very carefully.)
9. After seal seat is in place, insure
that it is clean and has not been
marred.
10. Using a clean cloth, wipe shaft and
make certain that it is perfectly
clean.
NOTE:
If removed, slide slinger washer
(Ref. No. 2) onto shaft until it is located
approximately 1/8” from face of motor
Description
These centrifugal pumps are self-priming (to 20 ft. lift) units designed for high
volume liquid transfer - irrigation, de-watering, lawn sprinkling, etc. They can also
accommodate semi-solids (up to 3/8” dia.), sediment laden liquids, and liquids
with entrained air or gases. Units are constructed of 316 stainless steel and include
Viton elstomers. They are direct coupled to NEMA 56J frame, 3450 RPM motors
which require field wiring, no controls are supplied. Each pump is equipped with
a flapper valve to shorten re-prime time. Handles liquids from 40º to 200º F (4º to
93º C). For use with non-flammable, non-abrasive liquids compatible with pump
component materials.
