Basic data No: Measurement Tolerance 1. Ball bearing inside diameter (I. D.) to shaft. 0.0001" to 0.0007" (0.003mm to 0.018mm) interference. 2. Ball bearing outside diameter (O. D.) to housing.
0.0001" to 0.001" (0.003mm to 0.03mm) clearance. 3. Sleeve to shaft. 0.001" to 0.0015" (0.03mm a 0.04mm) clearance. 4. Impeller to shaft. Metal to metal fit to 0.0005" (0.13mm) clearance. Note: there are pumps such as horizontal, axial split pumps and multi-stage vertical pumps that have interference fits. Consult your OEM manual 5. Throat bushing a) Throat bushing to case. 0.002" to 0.003" (0.05mm a 0.08mm) interference. b) Throat bushing to shaft. 0.015" to 0.020" (0.40 a 0.51mm) clearance.
c) The throat bushings on some vertical in-line pumps act as clearances. intermediate bearings and require closer. 6. Impeller a) Impeller ring to hub. 0.002" to 0.003" (0.05mm a 0.08mm interference. The impeller ring is normally doweled or spot welded in at least two places b) Impeller ring to case ring clearance. 0.010" to 0.012" (0.254mm a 0.3mm) plus 0.001" (0.03mm) per in. (25.4mm) of impeller ring diameter up to a 12" (3,658mm) ring. Add 0.0005 (0.013mm) per inch (25.4mm) of ring diameter over 12" (3,658mm). For temp. > or = 500 degrees (260 oC) add 0.10" (2.54mm). Also add 0.005 (0.127mm) for galling materials (stainless steel). c) Renew impeller rings when clearance reaches twice original clearance.
7. Case rings a) Case rings are not to be bored out larger than 3% of original diameter. b) Case ring to case. 0.002" to 0.003" (0.05mm a 0.08mm) interference. The case ring is normally doweled or spot welded in at least two places. 8. Oil deflector to shaft. 0.002" to 0.003" (0.05mm a 0.08mm) clearance. Install "O" ring in the ID if possible. 9. Packing gland a) Packing gland to shaft. 1/32" (0.8mm) clearance. b)
Packing gland to stuffing box bore. 1/64" (0.016mm) clearance. 10. Lantern ring . a) Lantern ring to shaft. 0.015" to 0.020" (0.40mm a 0.51mm) clearance. b) Lantern ring to stuffing box. 0.005" to 0.010" (0.13mm a 0.25mm) clearance. 11. Coupling to shaft. Metal to metal to 0.0005 (0.013mm) clearance. 12. Seal gland a)
Seal gland alignment boss to stuffing box. 0.002" to 0.004" (0.05mm a 0.10mm) clearance. b) Seal gland throttle bushing to shaft. 0.018" to 0.020" (0.5mm to 0.51mm) clearance, unless otherwise specified for hot pumps. 13. Seal locking collar to shaft. 0.002" to 0.004" (0.05mm a 0.10mm) clearance 14. Seal spring compression. 7/8" (22.2mm) long springs - 3/16"(4.8mm). " " (12.5mm) long springs 5/32"(4.0mm) Seal spring compression. 1/2"(12.7mm) short springs - 1/16" (1.6mm) unless otherwise specified by the manufacturer. 15.
Rotating and stationary seal rings. Sealing surfaces to be flat within 3 Helium light bands 16. Heads, case, suction cover, bearing housing to case alignments fits. 0.004" (0.01mm) maximum clearance. Use dial indicator and feeler gauges to correct fit-up and alignment. Horizontal axial split case 1. Stationary parts fit case metal to metal to 0.004" (0.01mm) clearance. 2. Measure and inspect case fits for wear and corrosion. Repair by building up and re-machining. 3. All other repairs same as vertical radial split case pumps except: Case rings to be bored in a jig not chucked. 4. Align element in case with feeler gauges and dial indicator. Dowel bearing housing in place after alignment. 5. When cutting gaskets for horizontal split pumps, cut bolt hole openings on head and split gasket lengthwise. Cut the rest of the
gasket on the case with all the slack in the boltholes pulled to the outside edges. Leave stuffing box gasket length long and trim after head has been set in place and tightened.
