4.2 Baseplate-mounting procedures
4.2.1 Prepare the baseplate for mounting
1.
Remove all the attached equipment from the baseplate.
2.
Clean the underside of the baseplate completely.
3.
If applicable, coat the underside of the baseplate with an epoxy primer.
Use an epoxy primer only if using an epoxy-based grout.
4.
Remove the rust-proofing coat from the machined mounting pads using an appropriate solvent.
5.
Remove water and debris from the foundation-bolt holes.
4.2.2 Install the baseplate using shims or wedges
Required tools:
•
Two sets of shims or wedges for each foundation bolt
•
Two machinist's levels
•
Baseplate-leveling worksheet
1.
If you use sleeve-type bolts, fill the bolt sleeves with packing material or rags to prevent grout from
entering the bolt holes.
2.
Put the sets of wedges or shims on each side of each foundation bolt.
Make sure that the wedges extend 19 mm | 0.75 in. to 38 mm | 1.5 in. above the foundation to pro-
vide adequate space for grouting. The wedges will provide adequate support for the baseplate after
it is grouted.
3.
Lower the baseplate carefully onto the foundation bolts.
4.
Put the machinist's levels across the mounting pads of the driver and the mounting pads of the
pump.
NOTICE:
Remove all dirt from the mounting pads in order to ensure that the correct leveling is achieved.
Failure to do so can result in equipment damage or decreased performance.
5.
Level the baseplate both lengthwise and across by adding or removing shims or moving the wedg-
es.
These are the leveling tolerances:
•
A maximum difference of 0.250 mm | 0.010 in. lengthwise
•
A maximum difference of 0.125 mm | 0.005 in. across
You can use the baseplate-leveling worksheet when you take the readings.
6.
Hand-tighten the nuts for the foundation.
4.2.3 Install the baseplate using jackscrews
Tools required:
•
Anti-seize compound
•
Jackscrews
•
Bar stock
•
Two machinist's levels
1.
Apply an anti-seize compound on the jackscrews.
The compound makes it easier to remove the screws after you grout.
2.
Lower the baseplate carefully onto the foundation bolts and perform these steps:
