Safety
WARNING:
• The operator must be aware of the pumpage and take appropriate safety precautions to
prevent physical injury.
• Risk of serious injury or death. If any pressure-containing device is over-pressurized, it can
explode, rupture, or discharge its contents. It is critical to take all necessary measures to
avoid over-pressurization.
• Risk of death, serious personal injury, and property damage. Installing, operating, or
maintaining the unit using any method not prescribed in this manual is prohibited.
Prohibited methods include any modification to the equipment or use of parts not provided
by ITT. If there is any uncertainty regarding the appropriate use of the equipment, please
contact an ITT representative before proceeding.
• Risk of serious personal injury. Applying heat to impellers, propellers, or their retaining
devices can cause trapped liquid to rapidly expand and result in a violent explosion. This
manual clearly identifies accepted methods for disassembling units. These methods must
be adhered to. Never apply heat to aid in their removal unless explicitly stated in this
manual.
• If the pump or motor is damaged or leaking, electric shock, fire, explosion, liberation of
toxic fumes, physical harm, or environmental damage may result. Do not operate the unit
until the problem has been corrected or repaired.
• Risk of serious personal injury or property damage. Dry running may cause rotating parts
within the pump to seize to non-moving parts. Do not run dry.
• Risk of death, serious personal injury, and property damage. Heat and pressure buildup
can cause explosion, rupture, and discharge of pumpage. Never operate the pump with
suction and/or discharge valves closed.
• Running a pump without safety devices exposes operators to risk of serious personal
injury or death. Never operate a unit unless appropriate safety devices (guards, etc.) are
properly installed. See specific information about safety devices in other sections of this

If you use a pneumatic hammer, make sure that it does not contaminate the surface with oil
or other moisture.
NOTICE:
Do not chip the foundation using heavy tools such as jackhammers. This can damage the
structural integrity of the foundation.
2. Remove water or debris from the foundation bolt holes or sleeves.

3. If the baseplate uses sleeve-type bolts, then fill the sleeves with a non-binding, moldable
material. Seal the sleeves in order to prevent the grout from entering.
4. Coat the exposed portion of the anchor bolts with a non-bonding compound such as paste
wax in order to prevent the grout from adhering to the anchor bolts.
Do not use oils or liquid wax.
5. If recommended by the grout manufacturer, coat the foundation surface with a compatible
primer.
Install and level the baseplate

NOTICE: Illustrations are for reference only and may not depict the particular pump model.
WARNING:
Never operate any pumping system with a blocked suction and discharge. Operation, even for
a brief period under these conditions, can cause confined pumped fluid to overheat, which
results in a violent explosion. You must take all necessary measures to avoid this condition. If
pump becomes plugged shut down and unplug prior to restarting pump.
CAUTION:

Installation
Figure 10: Jackscrew locations, side view

1. Lower the baseplate carefully onto the foundation bolts.
The baseplate will rest on top of the foundation on the jackscrews provided on the
baseplate.
2. Adjust the leveling jackscrews, located adjacent to the foundation bolt holes, until the
baseplate rests 1 to 2 in. (25 to 50 mm) above the foundation in order to allow for adequate
grouting.
This provides even support for the baseplate after grouting.
3. Level the baseplate to within 0.002 in./ft. (0.167 mm/m) of the length or width of the
baseplate by adjusting the jackscrews.
• The maximum total variation from one end or side of the baseplate to the other is
0.015 in. (0.38 mm).
• Use the equipment mounting surfaces in order to establish the level.
4. Use a non-bonding (anti-seize) compound such as paste wax to coat the portions of the
jackscrews that will contact the grout.
This facilitates removal of the screws after grouting.
NOTICE:
Do not use oils or liquid wax.
5. Thread the nuts onto the foundation bolts and hand-tighten.

Pump-to-driver alignment
Precautions
WARNING:
• Misalignment can cause decreased performance, equipment damage, and even catas-
trophic failure of frame-mounted units leading to serious injury. Proper alignment is the
responsibility of the installer and the user of the unit. Check the alignment of all drive
components prior to operating the unit.
• Follow the coupling installation and operation procedures from the coupling manufactur-
er.
• Failure to disconnect and lock out driver power may result in serious physical injury or
death. Always disconnect and lock out power to the driver before performing any
installation or maintenance tasks.
international, national, state, and local rules.
• Refer to driver/coupling/gear manufacturer's installation and operation manuals (IOM)
for specific instructions and recommendations.
Alignment methods
Three common alignment methods are used:
• Dial indicator
• Reverse dial indicator
• Laser
Follow the instructions from the equipment manufacturer when you use the reverse dial
indicator or laser methods. Detailed instructions for using the dial indicator method are
contained in this chapter.
Alignment checks
When to perform alignment checks
You must perform alignment checks under these circumstances:
• The process temperature changes.
• The piping changes.
• The pump has been serviced.
Types of alignment checks

Type of check When it is used
Initial alignment (cold alignment) Prior to operation when the pump and the driver are at ambient
check temperature.
Final alignment (hot alignment) After operation when the pump and the driver are at operating
check temperature.
Initial alignment (cold alignment) checks

When Why
Before you grout the baseplate This ensures that alignment can be accomplished.
After you grout the baseplate This ensures that no changes have occurred during the grouting
process.
After you connect the piping This ensures that pipe strains have not altered the alignment.
If changes have occurred, you must alter the piping to remove pipe
strains on the pump flanges.
Final alignment (hot alignment) checks

When Why
After the first run This ensures correct alignment when both the pump and the driver
are at operating temperature.
Installation
When Why
Periodically This follows the plant operating procedures.
Permitted indicator values for alignment checks

NOTICE:
The specified permitted reading values are valid only at operating temperature. For cold
settings, other values are permitted. The correct tolerances must be used. Failure to do so can
result in misalignment.
IMPORTANT
• For electric motors, the motor shaft initial (cold) parallel vertical alignment setting should
be 0.05 to 0.10 mm | 0.002 to 0.004 in. lower than the pump shaft.
• For other drivers such as turbines and engines, follow the driver manufacturer's
recommendations.
When dial indicators are used to check the final alignment, the pump and drive unit are
correctly aligned when these conditions are true:
• The Total Indicated Reading (T.I.R.) is at 0.05 mm | 0.002 in. or less at operating
temperature.
• The tolerance of the indicator is 0.0127 mm per mm | 0.0005 in. per in. of indicator

Check the alignment again after any mechanical adjustments. This corrects any misalignments that an
adjustment may have caused.
Installation
Attach the dial indicators for alignment

You must have two dial indicators in order to complete this procedure.
1. Attach two dial indicators on the pump coupling half (X):
a) Attach one indicator (P) so that the indicator rod comes into contact with the perimeter
of the driver coupling half (Y).
This indicator is used to measure parallel misalignment.
b) Attach the other indicator (A) so that the indicator rod comes into contact with the inner
end of the driver coupling half.
This indicator is used to measure angular misalignment.

Bypass-piping considerations
When to use a bypass line
Provide a bypass line for systems that require operation at reduced flows for prolonged
periods. Connect a bypass line from the discharge side (before any valves) to the source of
suction.
When to install a minimum-flow orifice

You can size and install a minimum-flow orifice in a bypass line in order to prevent bypassing
excessive flows. Consult your ITT representative for assistance in sizing a minimum-flow
orifice.
Installation
When a minimum-flow orifice is unavailable

Consider an automatic recirculation control valve or solenoid-operated valve if a constant
bypass (minimum-flow orifice) is not possible.
Installation
Auxiliary-piping checklist
Precautions
WARNING:
• Cooling systems such as those for bearing lubrication and mechanical-seal systems
must be operating properly to prevent excess heat generation, sparks, and premature
failure.
• Sealing systems that are not self-purging or self-venting, such as plan 23, require
manual venting prior to operation. Failure to do so will result in excess heat generation and
seal failure.
NOTICE:
The mechanical seal must have an appropriate seal-flush system. Failure to do so will
result in excess heat generation and seal failure.
When to install
You may need to install auxiliary piping for bearing cooling, seal-chamber cover cooling,
mechanical seal flush, or other special features supplied with the pump. Consult the pump data
sheet for specific auxiliary piping recommendations.
Checklist
Check that the minimum flow for each –
component is 4 lpm | 1 gpm.
If the bearing and seal chamber cover
cooling are provided, then the auxiliary
piping must flow at 8 lpm | 2 gpm.
Check that the cooling water pressure –
does not exceed 7.0 kg/cm2 | 100 psig .
Final piping checklist

Check that the shaft rotates smoothly. Rotate the shaft by hand. Make sure there is no
rubbing that can lead to excess heat generation or
sparks.
Re-check the alignment to make sure If pipe strain exists, then correct the piping.

Commissioning, Startup, Operation, and Shutdown
Commissioning, Startup, Operation, and

Shutdown
Preparation for startup
WARNING:
• Breach of containment can cause fire, burns, and other serious injury. Failure to follow
these precautions before starting the unit may lead to dangerous operating conditions,
equipment failure, and breach of containment.
• Risk of serious physical injury or death. Exceeding any of the pump operating limits (e.g. -
pressure, temperature, power, etc.) could result in equipment failure, such as explosion,
seizure, or breach of containment. Assure that the system operating conditions are within
the capabilities of the pump.
• Risk of explosion and serious physical injury. Do not operate pump with blocked system
piping or with suction or discharge valves closed. This can result in rapid heating and
vaporization of pumpage.
• Risk of breach of containment and equipment damage. Ensure the pump operates only
between minimum and maximum rated flows. Operation outside of these limits can cause
high vibration, mechanical seal and/or shaft failure, and/or loss of prime.
• Avoid mechanical seal failure or pump seizure by:
• increasing speed at startup to at least 65% of rated speed within 5 seconds and
• decreasing speed at shutdown from 65% of rated speed to 0 within 5 seconds
• Running a pump without safety devices exposes operators to risk of serious personal
injury or death. Never operate a unit unless appropriate safety devices (guards, etc.) are
properly installed.
• Starting the pump in reverse rotation can result in the contact of metal parts, heat
generation, and breach of containment. Ensure correct driver settings prior to starting any
pump.
• Risk of seizure, breach of containment, or explosion. Ensure balance line is installed and
piped back to either the pump suction or suction vessel. This prevents rapid vaporization of
the pumped fluid.
• Risk of death or serious injury. Leaking fluid can cause fire and/or burns. Ensure all
openings are sealed prior to filling the pump.
Precautions
NOTICE:
• Make sure that the temperature change does not exceed 19°C | 35°F per minute.
• Make sure that the temperature change does not exceed 11°C | 20°F per minute.
• Liquids with specific gravity less than 0.60 additional cool down procedures are required. A
bypass line (¾ in. minimum) shall be provided from the suction source and must bypass all
major valves. The discharge from this cool down must vent to atmosphere. It is
recommended that the pump be pre-cooled to within 3°C | 5°F or less of the operating
temperature prior to startup.
• The maximum allowable temperature change for an abnormal transient event such as
thermal shock is 121°C | 250°F
• Excessive warm-up rates can cause equipment damage. Ensure the warm-up rate does
not exceed 1.4°C | 2.5°F per minute.
You must follow these precautions before you start the pump:
• Flush and clean the system thoroughly to remove dirt or debris in the pipe system in order
to prevent premature failure at initial startup.
• Bring variable-speed drivers to the rated speed as quickly as possible.
• If temperatures of the pumped fluid will exceed 93°C | 200°F, then warm up the pump prior
to operation. Circulate a small amount of fluid through the pump until the casing
temperature is within 38°C | 100°F of the fluid temperature. Accomplish this by flowing fluid
from pump inlet to discharge drain (optionally, the casing vent can be included in warm-up
circuit but not required). Soak for (2) hours at process fluid temperature.
At initial startup, do not adjust the variable-speed drivers or check for speed governor or over-
speed trip settings while the variable-speed driver is coupled to the pump. If the settings have
not been verified, then uncouple the unit and refer to instructions supplied by the driver
manufacturer.
Remove the coupling guard

WARNING:
• Starting the pump in reverse rotation can result in the contact of metal parts, heat
generation, and breach of containment. Ensure correct driver settings prior to starting any
pump.
1. Lock out power to the driver.

2. Make sure that the coupling hubs are fastened securely to the shafts.
3. Make sure that the coupling spacer is removed.
The pump ships with the coupling spacer removed.
4. Unlock power to the driver.
5. Make sure that everyone is clear, and then jog the driver long enough to determine that the
direction of rotation corresponds to the arrow on the bearing housing or close-coupled
frame.
6. Lock out power to the driver.

Oil volume requirements for sleeve/hydrodynamic type bearings
NOTICE:
Do not expose an idle pump to freezing conditions. Drain all liquid that is inside the pump and
any auxiliary equipment. Failure to do so can cause liquid to freeze and damage the pump.
Avoid equipment damage. Assure there is adequate pressurized oil flow as the pump coasts
down.
The sleeve/hydrodynamic type bearing is a pressurized lubrication system where oil is flowed
into the bearing. This system does not have an oil sump. The system requires a flow rate of
0.12 m3/hr | 0.5 gpm for the sleeve bearing and 0.23m3/hr | 1.0 gpm for Kingsbury #5 and 0.45
m3/hr | 2.0 gpm for Kingsbury #6 for the hydrodynamic thrust bearing at 100 kPA | 15 psi.
Lubricating-oil requirements
Oil quality requirements
Use a high-quality turbine oil with rust and oxidation inhibitors with rated viscosity shown below
at 38°C | 100°F.
Oil requirements based on temperature

For the majority of operating conditions, bearing temperatures run between 49°C | 120°F and 82°C |
180°F, and you can use an oil of ISO viscosity grade 68 at 38°C | 100°F. If temperatures exceed 82°C |
180°F, refer to the table for temperature requirements.
Temperature Oil requirement
Bearing temperatures exceed 82°C | 180°F Use ISO viscosity grade 100. Bearing temperatures
are generally about 11°C | 20°F higher than bear-
ing-housing outer surface temperatures.

Lubricate the bearings with oil

NOTICE:
Ring oil-lubricated pumps are supplied with an oiler that maintains a constant oil level in the
bearing housing.
1. Fill the oil reservoir in the bearing frame:
a) Fill the bearing chamber through the main body of the Watchdog until it reaches the
optimum fluid level visible in the bullseye sight.
b) Fill the watchdog reservoir using a funnel.
c) Verify o-ring is on the Watchdog oiler spout.
d) Place your thumb over the reservoir spout. Invert and insert the spout into the internal
threaded boss on the main body.
e) Tighten reservoir. Do not over-tighten.
f) Verify that proper oil level is maintained per the following diagram.
NOTICE:
Do not fill the oil reservoir of the bearing frame through the plug at the top.
2. Check that the oil level is correct. The correct oil level is centered in the bullseye sight
glass, when the pump is not in operation. During operation, bullseye sight gives a false oil
level reading. Shown is general schematic. Oil level is below outer race of bearing.

Lubricate the bearings with pure or purge-oil mist (optional)

NOTICE:
Before lubricating with purge-oil mist, make sure that the bearing frame is properly lubricated.
See Lubricate the bearings with oil.
The oil requirements for ring-oil-lubricated bearings also apply to oil-mist-lubricated bearings.
NOTICE:
Oil mist is recommended for use on ball bearing arrangements only. See Convert to oil-mist
lubrication.
1. Prepare the oil-mist generator according to the manufacturer's instructions.

2. Connect the oil-mist supply lines to the oil-ring inspection plug connections.
Note that only one of the two connection ports in the radial bearing housing (134) is used
(immediately above the single row radial bearing). You must connect to both connections
on the thrust bearing housing, because there are two rows of bearings.
Oil-mist connections
A. Radial and thrust
B. Thrust only
C. Radial and thrust drain
Convert to oil-mist lubrication
NOTICE:
Make sure that pipe threads are clean and apply thread sealant to plugs and fittings.
You can convert from ring-oil lubrication to oil-mist lubrication in pumps with ball bearing
construction. The radial and thrust end bearing housings (134) have pre-drilled connections for
oil misting:
• 1/4 in. NPT connection on the inboard side of the housing
• 1/2 in. NPT connection on the outboard side
Purge-oil mist lubrication provides intermittent oil mist in the bearing housing. This system uses
the oil sump in the housing, and requires the oil ring and the constant-level oiler.
Pure-oil mist lubrication provides constant oil mist in the bearing housing. This system does not
use the oil sump, oil ring, or constant-level oiler. The drain connections in the bearing housing
are used as part of the oil recirculation system.
1. On the radial housing, replace the 1/4 in. NPT plug with an oil-mist fitting provided by the
oil-mist system manufacturer.
The 1/2 in. NPT connections remains plugged because it is not required in the oil-mist
system.
2. On the thrust housing, replace the 1/4 in. NPT plug with an oil-mist fitting. Replace the 1/2
in. NPT plug with a 1/2 in. to 1/4 in. bushing and insert an oil-mist fitting provided by the oil-
mist system manufacturer.
Oil-mist connections
A. Radial and thrust (1/4 in.)
B. Thrust only (1/2 in.)
C. Radial and thrust drain
NOTICE:
In both housings, the inboard channel beneath the 1/4 in. NPT connection must be 1/4 in. plug-
epoxied to prevent rapid oil drainage. Drill a 1/8 in. hole for required but restricted drainage.
Lubricate the bearings after a shutdown period

1. Flush out the bearings and bearing frame with a light oil to remove contaminants.
During flushing, make sure to rotate the shaft slowly by hand.
2. Flush the bearing housing with the proper lubricating oil to ensure oil quality after cleaning.
3. Refer to "Reassembly" section for proper bearing greasing procedure.
Shaft sealing with a mechanical seal

Precautions
WARNING:
The mechanical seal used in an Ex-classified environment must be properly certified.
NOTICE:
• The mechanical seal must have an appropriate seal-flush system. Failure to do so will
result in excess heat generation and seal failure.
• Cooling systems such as those for bearing lubrication and mechanical-seal systems
must be operating properly to prevent excess heat generation, sparks, and premature
failure.
seal failure.
• Follow seal manufacturer's guidelines for proper seal installation procedures.
Shipping
Pumps may be shipped with or without a mechanical seal installed.
Cartridge-type mechanical seals

Cartridge-type mechanical seals are commonly used. Cartridge seals are preset by the seal
manufacturer and require no field settings. Cartridge seals installed by the user require
disengagement of the holding clips prior to operation, allowing the seal to slide into place.
If the seal has been installed in the pump by ITT, these clips have already been disengaged.
Other mechanical seal types

For other types of mechanical seals, refer to the instructions provided by the seal manufacturer
for installation and setting.
Connection of sealing liquid for mechanical seals

Seal lubrication is required
Seal faces must have liquid film between them for proper lubrication. Locate the taps using the
illustrations shipped with the seal.
Seal flushing methods

You can use these methods in order to flush or cool the seal:
Method Description
Product flush Run the piping so that the pump pushes the pumped fluid from the casing and
injects it into the seal gland. If necessary, an external heat exchanger cools the
pumped fluid before it enters the seal gland.
External flush Run the piping so that the pump injects a clean, cool, compatible liquid directly into
the seal gland. The pressure of the flushing liquid must be 0.35 to 1.01 kg/cm2 | 5
to 15 psi greater than the seal chamber pressure. The injection rate must be 2 to 8
lpm | 0.5 to 2 gpm.
Other You can use other methods that employ multiple gland or seal chamber
connections. Refer to the mechanical seal reference drawing and piping diagrams.
Prime the pump with the suction supply above the pump
1. Slowly open the suction isolation valve.
2. Open the air vents on the suction and discharge piping, the casing, the seal chamber, and
the seal piping, if provided, until all air is vented and only the pumped fluid flows out.
3. Close the air vents.

gauges. If discharge pressure is not quickly attained, stop the driver immediately, reprime,
and attempt to restart the pump.
• To avoid risk of equipment damage, observe the pump for vibration levels, bearing
temperature, and excessive noise. If normal levels are exceeded, shut down the pump and
resolve the issue.
• On frame mounted units, ensure that the oil level is correct prior to starting pump. Close
coupled pumps do not have oil lubricated bearings.
NOTICE:
Risk of equipment damage on pure or purge-oil mist-lubricated units. Remove the viewing port
plugs to verify that oil mist is flowing properly. Reinstall the plugs after confirming.
Before you start the pump, you must perform these tasks:
• Open the suction valve.
• Open any recirculation or cooling lines.
1. Fully close or partially open the discharge valve, depending on system conditions.
2. Start the driver.
3. Slowly open the discharge valve until the pump reaches the desired flow.
4. Immediately check the pressure gauge to ensure that the pump quickly reaches the correct
discharge pressure.
5. If the pump fails to reach the correct pressure, perform these steps:
a) Stop the driver.
b) Prime the pump again.
c) Restart the driver.
6. Monitor the pump while it is operating:
a) Check the pump for bearing temperature, excessive vibration, and noise.
b) If the pump exceeds normal levels, then shut down the pump immediately and correct
the problem.
A pump can exceed normal levels for several reasons. See Troubleshooting for
information about possible solutions to this problem.
7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 until the pump runs properly.

WARNING:
Precautions must be taken to prevent physical injury. The pump may handle hazardous and/or
toxic fluids. Proper personal protective equipment should be worn. Pumpage must be handled
and disposed of in conformance with applicable environmental regulations.
1. Slowly close the discharge valve.

2. Shut down and lock out the driver to prevent accidental rotation.
Make the final alignment of the pump and driver

WARNING:
• Misalignment can cause decreased performance, equipment damage, and even catas-
trophic failure of frame-mounted units leading to serious injury. Proper alignment is the
responsibility of the installer and the user of the unit. Check the alignment of all drive
components prior to operating the unit.
• Follow the coupling installation and operation procedures from the coupling manufactur-
er.
You must check the final alignment after the pump and driver are at operating temperature. For
initial alignment instructions, see the Installation chapter.
1. Run the unit under actual operating conditions for enough time to bring the pump, driver,
and associated system to operating temperature.
2. Shut down the pump and the driver.
3. Remove the coupling guard.
4. Check the alignment while the unit is still hot.
See Pump-to-driver alignment in the Installation chapter.
5. Reinstall the coupling guard.
6. Restart the pump and driver.
Doweling the pump casing

You must dowel the pump casing to the baseplate pedestals in order to maintain the proper
pump position. There are two methods for doweling the pump casing, depending on whether
the pump is used in a cold application or a hot application. Hot doweling is required above
250°F (121°C). All pumps are equipped for hot doweling.
When the driver is mounted at the factory, the pump is doweled for both cold and hot
applications; the driver is not doweled in order to allow for final field alignment. When the driver
is mounted in the field, the pump is not doweled. Therefore, these doweling procedures,
typically done at the factory, must be done in the field.
NOTICE:
You should dowel only after completing the final alignment.
Dowel for motor installation

1. Center the pump on its pedestal so that the hold-down bolts are centered in the tapped
holes of the pump pedestal.
2. Place the motor on the baseplate with the proper shaft separation (DBSE = distance
between shaft ends).
3. Tighten the pump hold-down bolts.
4. After you have determined the correct motor location on the motor pedestals, mark the
location of the motor on the pedestals with a hole punch through the hold-down bolt holes
in the motor feet.
5. Remove the motor, then drill and tap the punched holes on the motor pedestal.
NOTICE:
Scribe the motor shims in order to return them to the correct location on the motor pedestal.
6. Set the motor back onto the baseplate with the shims in the correct location. Tighten the
hold-down bolts.
7. Loosen the pump and motor hold-down bolts. Confirm that the pump and motor are not
bolt-bound in order to make sure that the final drilled holes will be correctly located.
NOTICE:
Do not dowel the pump prior to this procedure because you will not be able to move the
pump on its pedestals.
Dowel for cold and hot service

Required tools:
• Two number 7 taper pins
• One number 7 taper pin reamer
• 21/64 in. or "Q" size drill
• Hardwood block or soft-faced hammer
NOTICE:
This procedure must be done only after the pump is properly aligned with the driver on the
baseplate.
1. Drill two holes through the pump foot and pump pedestal. Position each hole between the
hold-down bolt and the end of the pump foot at the coupling end on both sides.
2. Ream the holes with a number 7 taper pin reamer to the proper fit with the taper dowel pins.
Insert the pins deep enough so that only the threaded portions are exposed when the pins
are fully seated.
3. Seat the taper pins firmly in the holes with a hardwood block or soft-faced hammer.
If you should ever need to remove the dowel pins, tighten the hex nuts provided on the pins. If
the pins are not seated deeply enough, put a spacer under the hex nuts in order to lift the pins
free when the hex nuts are tightened.
NOTICE:
Always remove the dowel pins before removing the casing. Failure to do so can result in casing
damage.
Additional dowel for hot service

WARNING:
Avoid death or serious injury. Leaking fluid can cause fire and/or burns. Assure pump casing
has been properly hot doweled to prevent misalignment of rotor assembly leading to
mechanical seal, bearing, coupling and/or shaft failure.
Required tools:
• Supplied hardware stated below
• Impact wrench
NOTICE:
This procedure must be done only after the pump is properly aligned with the driver on the
baseplate.
1. Install pin (394) into casing.

2. Place block (441) on pedestal located on baseplate and align with pin (394) in casing.
3. Secure block with lockwasher (438E) and capscrew (370F) to baseplate.

Bundle Assembly Using Slings Only

1.
NOTICE:
This is the preferred method for disassembly / assembly of the pump without the use of a
disassembly cradle. Other methods may be performed by qualified personnel who have
been trained and certified as well as having experience and familiarity with this type of
pump. A method of pump disassembly / assembly would be selected based on the
equipment available at the site where the pump is installed.
Suction Cover (item 182) needs to be mechanically locked to the shaft (item 122) to avoid
any movement during disassembly / assembly of the bundle into / out of the casing (item
100).
1. Install suction cover gaskets (351C and 351S). Apply high vacuum grease to gaskets.
Apply an anti-seize compound to suction cover (182 and 182A (double suction pumps
only)) register fits. Remove jack screws (419) if still installed.
Maintenance
2. Using suitable slings around the bundle as shown insert into the casing (100).
3. Reposition the slings around the radial end of shaft / housing and insert the rest of the way

5. Torque suction cover nuts (425B and 426B) to the values found in the “Maximum Torque
Values for Fasteners” table. Apply anti-seize compound to suction cover studs (356F).
6. For non-cartridge designs only, reassemble the pump coupling hub and key per "Prepare
for Bundle Reassembly" and reassemble the radial end per the appropriate bearing
section.
Final Assembly Steps

1. Install head washers (533) and torque head nuts (425) to the values found in the “Maximum
Torque Values for Fasteners” table.

a) Apply anti-seize compound on casing studs (356A) and to the face of the head where
the washers make contact.
b) Install a nut on every other stud.
c) Tighten the nuts evenly to bring the faces of the head and casing together to a metal to
metal fit.
d) Mark each of these nuts as Group A.
e) Install the remaining half of the nuts (Group B).
f) Apply a torque of approximately 150 ft-lb (203 N-m) to the Group B nuts.
g) Match mark the Group B nuts to the head.
h) Further tighten the Group B nuts by turning each nut clockwise 17° to 19° past the mark
on the head.
Maintenance
i) Loosen the Group A nuts.

j) Repeat steps F through H for the Group A nuts.
k) Torque Group B nuts to value found in the table.
l) Torque Group A nuts to value found in the table.
2. The rotating element must be centered inside the bundle.
a) Disassemble thrust bearing housing as necessary to remove bearing spacer (217). See
appropriate thrust bearing housing disassembly section.
b) Push the rotating element towards the coupling end until it stops.
c) Measure the distance from the thrust bearing shoulder on the shaft (122) to the bearing
housing saddle face on the head (184).
d) Pull the rotating element towards the thrust end until it stops.
e) Again, measure the distance from the thrust bearing shoulder on the shaft (122) to the
bearing housing saddle face on the head (184).
The difference between the two measurements is the total travel of the rotating
element.
f) Calculate the average of these dimensions.
g) For ball bearing pumps only, measure the shoulder depth on the inboard cover (119A)
and subtract the calculated average dimension.
For hydrodynamic pumps only, measure the thrust bearing shoulder depth on the thrust
bearing housing (134A) and the over all length of one of the tilt pad bearings including
the holder (280). Add these two dimensions and subtract the calculated average
dimension.
The result is the bearing spacer (217) thickness required to properly center the rotating
element.
h) Remachine the spacer as necessary making sure that both faces are parallel within
0.001 in (0.025 mm).
3. Reassemble thrust bearing housing as necessary. See appropriate thrust bearing housing
assembly section. For ball bearing pumps only, the only exception to this is the installation
of new thrust bearings. See step 4.
4. For ball bearing pumps only, assemble a new set of thrust bearings (112A) in a back to
back arrangement onto the shaft (122). The bearings are an interference fit.
a) Install bearing spacer (217) onto the shaft (122).
CAUTION:
Burn hazard. The bearings will get hot. Wear insulated gloves when handling the impeller.
b) Heat the bearings to 250°F (120°C) with an electronic induction heater.

The induction heater also demagnetizes the bearings.
NOTICE:
Do not use a torch and do not force.
c) Install the bearings (112A), the oil ring sleeve (443B), and the bearing locknut (138)
onto the shaft.
d) While the bearings are hot, tighten the locknut by hand with a spanner wrench until the
bearing is snug against the shoulder.
e) Allow the bearing assembly to cool slowly to room temperature.
Do not rapidly cool the bearings with compressed air or other means.
f) When the bearing assembly is fully cooled, remove the locknut (138), install the
lockwasher (382), and install the locknut.
Maintenance
g) Hand tighten the locknut (138) with a spanner wrench. Do not over tighten the bearing.
Tap the of the spanner wrench with light strikes from a dead blow hammer while you
note the location of the next available lockwasher (382) tab that aligns with the slots in
the locknut.
The turning resistance of the nut increase as it tightens. Plan the alignment of the
lockwasher tab with the locknut fully tightened. If the locknut is still turning with light
strikes with the hammer, then continue to tighten the locknut until the next available tab
is aligned with a slot. Do not use heavy strikes with the hammer. If it is not possible to
reach the next tab, then loosen the locknut to align with the previous tab.
h) Check the condition of the outer races by rotating the bearings by hand in opposite
directions:
• The outer races generally cannot be counter rotated by hand, but if they do move,
the resistance must be high.
• If the outer races are loose, the bearing is not properly seated and must be
retightened.
i) When you have achieved the proper bearing assembly, set the lockwasher tab in the
slot in the locknut.
5. Tighten set screws on the mechanical seal sleeve collar. Disengage the setting tabs and
ensure they are retightened clear of any rotating part. Refer to the seal installation drawing
provided by the manufacture. Complete tasks on both seals at this time.
6. Install the balance line and gaskets (351M). Torque bolts (791L) and nuts (357T) to the
values found in the “Maximum Torque Values for Fasteners” table.
Post-assembly checks
Perform these checks after you assemble the pump, then continue with pump startup:
• Rotate the shaft by hand in order to make sure that it rotates easily and smoothly and that
there is no rubbing.
• Open the isolation valves and check the pump for leaks.
