Installation Procedures
NOTE: Before attempting to operate your MasoSine Pump, work through the following items.
1. Check the coupling alignment between the drive and the pump. This should be done only after the
pump, drive and base have been fully anchored. Refer to
and the alignment sheet supplied
with the coupling, if applicable.
Figure 1 – Coupling Alignment
2. Be sure that the piping loads on the suction and discharge nozzles are not excessive. Flexible
connectors on both the suction and discharge side of the pump are recommended to eliminate
pipe stress or movement
3. Check to be sure that the pump and piping are free of foreign objects.
Caution: Do not use the MasoSine Pump to flush or clean the piping system as damage to the
pump may result.
4. Be sure to check all joint and piping connections to insure that they are tight and free of air leaks.
Suction leaks can cause the pump to run inefficiently.
5. Pressure gauges on both the suction and discharge side of the pump are highly recommended.
These gauges can often identify the source of system operational problems.
