Oil quantity requirements
Bearing frame size Oil quantity in liters | quarts
24 0.5 | 0.53
32 1.1 | 1.16
42 1.4 | 1.48
48 1.7 | 1.8
6.2.2 Change the oil
1. Remove the oil drain plug (903.51).
2. Drain the oil.
3. Flush the pump with fresh oil.
4. Clean the oil drain plug.
5. Close the oil drain.
6. Fill the pump with new oil. See Lubricate the bearings with oil in the Commissioning, Startup,
Operation, and Shutdown chapter.
7. Dispose of used oil in accordance with local environmental regulations.
6.2.3 Lubricating-grease requirements
Precautions
NOTICE:
Avoid equipment damage or decreased performance. Never mix greases of different con-
sistencies (NLGI 1 or 3 with NLGI 2) or with different thickeners. For example, never mix a
lithium-based grease with a polyurea based grease. If it is necessary to change the grease
type or consistency, remove the rotor and old grease from the housing before regreasing.
Grease quality requirements
Use a high-quality grease lubricant corresponding to NLGI Grade 2.
Grease lubrication
Consider this information when you lubricate with grease:
• Pumps are delivered from the manufacturer with lubricated bearings and are ready to be used.
• The bearings are filled with lithium-based grease, which is suitable for a temperature range
from -30°C to 90°C | -22°F to 194°F when measured at the surface of the bearing frame.
• Make sure that bearing temperatures, measured at the bearing frame, are no more than 50°C |
122°F above the ambient temperature and never exceed 90°C | 194°F when checked weekly.
6.2.4 Regrease the grease-lubricated bearings
NOTICE:
Risk of equipment damage. Ensure that the grease container, the greasing device, and the
fittings are clean. Failure to do so can result in impurities entering the bearing housing
while regreasing the bearings.
1. Wipe dirt from the grease fittings.
2. Fill the grease cavities through the fittings with a recommended grease.
3. Wipe off any excess grease.
4. Recheck the alignment.
