INSTALLATION
PREPARATION
When preparing your pump for installation, Please make sure the discharge and suction connections must be clean and
free of anything that might prohibit a tight connection. This is especially important on the suction, air leaks can cause a
pump to operate poorly or to lose prime completely.
If your pump has just been taken out of storage all of the grease or preservative must be removed from the ball bearing hous-
ing. The ball bearing housing must then be thoroughly cleaned with kerosene or carbon tetrachloride & re-lubricated. On
packed pumps, it will be necessary to clean the shaft sleeve & stuffing box with kerosene or carbon tetrachloride & then
repack.
FOUNDATION
Whenever possible locate pump near the source of supply as possible. Allow enough space for inspection & maintenance
of pump. Baseplate mounted pumps are usually grouted on a concrete foundation that has been poured on a solid footing.
The foundation should be of heavy construction to reduce vibration and must be rigid enough to resist the torque it may be
subjected to. The foundation should be 2" to 6" larger than the base, depending on the size of the base. A space of
approximately 2" should be left between the foundation and the bottom of the base for grouting. Use a pipe sleeved bolt as
shown in Fig. 2 to within 1/2" of the base for a foundation bolt.
LEVEL
BASEPLATE
Pump alignment is very important and special care should
be taken . Once the pump is set the only means of adjusting
is
by
shimming.
1. Place 12 wedges on the foundation, one wedge on each
side of every mounting bolt. Place wedges so that baseplate is
3/4" above foundation to allow for adequate grouting (Fig. 3).
2. Carefully lower the baseplate onto mounting bolts.
3. Level baseplate to within 1/8" over the length and to within
.088 in over the width by adjusting the wedges.
