OPERATION - SECTION C
Review all SAFETY information in Section A.
Follow the instructions on all tags, labels and
decals attached to the pump.
This pump is designed to handle liquids
containing large entrained solids and
slurries. Do not attempt to pump vola­
tile, corrosive, or flammable liquids
which may damage the pump or endan­
ger personnel as a result of pump fail­
ure.
Pump speed and operating condition
points must be within the continuous per­
formance range shown on the perfor­
mance curve in Section E on page E-1.
PRIMING
Install the pump and piping as described in IN­
STALLATION . Make sure that the piping connec­
tions are tight, and that the pump is securely
mounted. Check that the pump is properly lubri­
cated (see
LUBRICATION in MAINTENANCE
AND REPAIR ).
The pump will begin to prime upon startup. The air
in the suction line will be discharged from the educ­
tor discharge line. Complete priming is indicated
by a positive discharge pressure reading.
If full priming is not achieved, the discharge check
valve may be malfunctioning. If this occurs, shut
down the pump and consult
Maintenance and
Repair, Section E for further details.
STARTING
Consult the operations manual furnished with the
power source.
Rotation
The correct direction of pump rotation is counter­
clockwise when facing the impeller. The pump
could be damaged and performance adversely af­
fected by incorrect rotation. If pump performance
is not within the specified limits (see the curve on
page E‐1), check the direction of power source ro­
tation before further troubleshooting.
If an electric motor is used to drive the pump, re­
move the coupling or otherwise disconnect the
pump from the motor before checking motor rota­
tion. Operate the motor independently while ob­
serving the direction of the motor shaft or cooling
fan.
If rotation is incorrect on a three‐phase motor, have
a qualified electrician interchange any two of the
three phase wires to change direction.
Priming
The pump will begin to prime upon startup. The air
in the suction line will be discharged from the educ­
tor discharge line. Complete priming is indicated
by a positive discharge pressure reading.
If full priming is not achieved, the discharge check
valve may be malfunctioning. If this occurs, shut
down the pump and consult the separate
Mainte­
nance and Repair manual for further details.
OPERATION
Leakage
Once the pump is fully primed, no leakage should
be visible at pump mating surfaces, or at pump
connections or fittings. Keep all line connections
and fittings tight to maintain maximum pump effi­
ciency.
