GENERAL
Pumps are partially
¿
lled with a water-soluble rust
inhibitor prior to shipment. This solution should be
drained or
À
ushed from the pump. Drain pump by
removing drain plugs.
Liquid ring pump units with pump and motor on
a common base can be located on any
À
at, level
À
ooring suitable for their weight. The pumps are
almost vibration-free and foundation bolting is
not normally required. Using elastomer machine
mounting pads (vibration controls) is helpful to
eliminate minor
À
oor vibrations. When the base
must be bolted to the
À
oor, it should be shimmed
as necessary to avoid base distortion.
DIRECT COUPLED DRIVE
Pumps shipped with the pump and motor directly
coupled and mounted on a common base have
been aligned prior to shipment and usually require
no further alignment. Be sure to check alignment
and make any necessary adjustments prior to
starting the unit. Generally, when installing
À
exible
couplings, the two shafts must be aligned to within
0.020 of an inch (maximum), and the coupling
halves must be positioned on the shafts to be
parallel to each other within 0.030 of an inch
(maximum) when measured around the periphery
of the coupling halves.
V-BELT DRIVE
Before attempting to tension any V-belt drive, make
sure the sheaves are properly aligned. Replace
V-belts in sets and the position the sheaves to
allow the belts to be placed in the grooves without
rolling them onto the sheaves. The tensioning
procedure for all belt types is as follows:
1. With belts properly in their grooves, adjust the
sheaves until all slack has been taken up.
2. Start the drive and continue to tension the
V-belt(s) until only a slight bow on the slack
side of the drive appears while operating under
load conditions.
3. After 24 to 48 hours of operation, the belts
will seat themselves in the sheave grooves.
Further tensioning may be necessary as
described in step 2.
Slipping (squealing) at start-up is often evidence
of insuf
¿
cient tensioning. Belt dressing should not
be used on V-belts. Sheaves and V-belts should
remain free of oil and grease. Tension should be
removed from belts if the drive is to be inactive for
an extended period of time.
WARNING
!
The belt guard or coupling guard must be
properly secured in place at all times while
the pump is running.
