ONNECTIONS
Have an electrician connect the drive motor using sound electrical practices. Ensure that proper mo-
tor overload protection is provided. The size of the drive selected should meet the requirements of the
operating conditions. A change in conditions (for example, higher viscosity product, higher product
specific gravity) can overload the motor. For technical assistance regarding operating condition chang-
es, please contact Fristam Pumps. Make sure that the pump
is rotating in the correct direction.

ONNECTIONS
If your pump is equipped with a double mechanical or double
o-ring product seal, water must be supplied to provide cool-
ing and lubrication. Connect supply and return lines to the
water pipes supplied with the product seal on your pump.
The water pipes have a 1/16” NPT thread. See Figure 8 for
the proper orientation. Note: Water should flow from bottom
to top and steam should travel top to bottom. Use about 3-1
gallons per hour of water at 1- psi. Excessive seal pressure
and/or flow rate through the product seal cavity may cause
increased seal wear and shorten seal life.

LIST
1. Make sure that the pump and piping system are clear
of any foreign matter. Do not use the pump to flush the
system.
. Make sure that the pump and drive are properly lubricated. Check the lubrication section (page 5)
in this manual for the pump. See instructions from the manufacturer for the drive.
3. Check to make sure that all guards are in place and secure.
4. Check for proper pump and drive rotation (Figure 9). Make sure that the pump is flooded with
product when checking the rotation. Running the pump dry even momentarily can cause seal dam-
age.
5. Check that all valves on the discharge side are open to prevent over-pressurizing the pump.

Visually inspect the mechanical seal regularly for leakage.
Annually replace mechanical seal under normal condi-
tions.
Replace mechanical seal as often as required under severe
conditions (abrasive product, dry running, etc.).

LASTOMER
I
NSPECTION
Inspect all elastomers when performing pump mainte-
nance. We recommend replacing elastomers (o-rings and
gaskets) during seal replacements or every 3 months,
whichever comes first.
L
UbRICATION
The bearings and gears are lubricated with 15W40
oil. The oil level should be maintained in the center
of the sight glass on the side of the gearbox housing.
The oil should be changed every 4,000 hours under
normal conditions and every ,000 hours under severe conditions such as washdown applications.
