1 1/2-Inch Sprinkler/Booster Pumps

Refer to pump manual 1808-634-00 for General Operating and Safety Instructions.

MAINTENANCE

 

Make certain that unit is disconnected from power source before 
attempting to service or remove any components! 

 

MECHANICAL SEAL REPLACEMENT

Refer to Figures 1, 2 and 3

IMPORTANT:

 Always replace both seal seat (Ref. No. 5) and seal head (Ref. 

No. 6) to ensure proper mating of components!
1.  Unthread bolts (Ref. No. 20) and remove pump casing (Ref. No. 19) and 

o-ring (Ref. No. 17) from adapter (Ref. No. 2).

2.  Unthread socket cap screws (Ref. No. 15) and remove suction inlet (Ref. 

No. 13) and o-ring (Ref. No. 12) from diffuser (Ref. No. 8).

3.  Unthread hex nut (Ref. No. 11) from shaft.

NOTE:

 Some 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.

4. 

Unscrew first stage impeller (Ref. No. 7) from shaft (impeller unscrews 

CCW looking at shaft).

NOTE:

 A strap wrench is recommended to loosen both impellers. Attempts to 

loosen impellers with other tools may cause permanent damage to impellers. 

Due to close running fits between parts, damaged impellers should be replaced 

before reassembly of pump.
5.  Unthread cap screws (Ref. No. 15) and remove diffuser and diffuser/

crossover (Ref. No. 9) from adapter as a unit.

6.  Remove shaft sleeve (Ref. No. 10) from shaft and unscrew second stage 

impeller (Ref. No. 7).

7.  Remove seal head from shaft.
8.  Unscrew four bolts (2-Ref. No. 21 and 2-Ref. No. 4) and remove foot (Ref. 

No. 22) and adapter from motor mounting face.

9.  Push seal seat from adapter recess with a screwdriver.
10.  Clean adapter recess before inserting a new seal seat.
11.  Carefully wipe polished surface of new seal seat with a clean cloth.
12.  Wet the rubber portion of new seal seat with a light coating of soapy 

water.

13.  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).

14.  After seal seat is in place, be sure that it is clean and has not been marred.
15.  Using a clean cloth, wipe shaft and make certain that it is perfectly clean.

NOTE:

 The stub shaft position is factory set to provide proper seal and 

impeller location. Do not loosen the collar (Ref. No. 8) or remove stub shaft 
during mechanical seal replacement or entire rotor will need resetting during 
reassembly. (See ROTOR ADJUSTMENT on next page.)
16.  Carefully guide seal seat over shaft and secure adapter and foot to motor 

mounting face.

17.  Apply a light coating of soapy water to inside rubber portion of seal head 

and slide onto shaft (with polished sealing face first) so that rubber portion 

is just over the shoulder at end of threads on shaft.

 

 

Do not touch or wipe seal face of seal head.

18.  Screw second stage impeller back in place and tighten using a strap 

wrench on impeller shroud opening until impeller is against shaft shoulder.

NOTE:

 A strap wrench is required to tighten both impellers. Use of any other 

kind of tool could permanently damage impeller and cause damage to pump 

due to close running fits between impellers, diffuser and suction inlet.

19.  Slide shaft sleeve onto shaft.
20.  Apply small amount of grease or Vaseline on outside shroud of impeller 

opening and shaft sleeve. Remount diffuser and diffuser/crossover. Before 
tightening cap screws, rotate shaft and be sure impeller and shaft sleeve 
are not rubbing on diffuser or diffuser/crossover.

21. 

Screw first stage impeller into place and tighten with a strap wrench.

22.  Install hex nut to end of shaft.
23.  Remount suction inlet and o-ring, then rotate shaft to be sure impeller is 

not rubbing on suction inlet before tightening cap screws.

24.  Apply small amount of Vaseline to outside of diffuser at o-ring location and 

on flange of suction inlet. Install o-ring and gasket (Ref. No. 16).

IMPORTANT:

 Always inspect o-ring and gaskets. When cut, cracked or worn, 

replace them. Wet o-rings with Vaseline when reassembling pump for ease of 
assembly and to prevent pinching.
25.  Remount pump casing.
26.  A short “run-in” period may be necessary to provide completely leak-free 

seal operation.
