➢
continuous running
:
max
±
5% of the rated voltage
➢
intermittent running: max
±
10% of the rated voltage
Impeller inspection
➢
If the performance level has decreased considerably
,
the impeller
may be worn
Air release valve
➢
check if the valve ball in the pump casing moves freely
Semi-annually
Lifting chain or rope inspection
Oil inspection
(see chapter
5.4. Oil inspection and change
)
Yearly
Oil change
(see chapter
5.4. Oil inspection and change
)
Mechanical seal replacement
NOTICE:
Contact Tapflo for mechanical seal replacement.
Once every 2
to 5 years
Overhaul
➢
The pump must be overhauled even if the pump appears normal
during operation. The pump may need to be overhauled earlier if
it
is
used continuously or repeatedly.
NOTICE:
Contact Tapflo for pump overhaul.
5.3.
Storage after operation
If the pump will not be operated for a long period of time, pull the pump up, allow it to dry,
and store it indoors. For storage recommendations see chapter
2.4. Storage
.
NOTICE:
Be sure to perform a trial operation before reinstalling the pump. If the pump remains
immersed in water
,
operate the pump on a regular basis (i.e. once a week) to prevent the
impeller from seizing due to rust.
5.4.
Oil inspection and change
Oil inspection
➢
Designated oil: Turbine oil VG32
➢
Oil volume: specified volume
➢
Inspection interval: every 3000 hours or
6 months, whichever comes first.
➢
Changing interval: every 6000 hours or
12 months, which ever come first.
Remove the oil plug and take out a small amount of
oil. The oil can be extracted easily by tilting the pump
so that the oil plug faces downward
.
If the oil appears
discolored or intermixed with water
,
a likely cause is
a broken or worn mechanical seal
,
which requires
that the pump be disassembled and repaired.
Oil change
Remove the oil plug and drain the oil completely.
Pour a specified oil volume into the oil filler inlet.
