Good Practice
NOTE: These are general guidelines and do not cover all possible situations.
It is the responsibility of the system integrator to apply this product properly.
Plumbing
1. The inlet pipe should be as short and straight as possible to minimize
suction pressure losses. Excessive restrictions at the inlet can cause
cavitation resulting in poor performance, noise, vibration, or pump
damage.
2. Slope the inlet plumbing appropriately to avoid air pockets.
3. Plumbing weight, misalignment with the ports or thermal expansion can
exert excessive force on the pump. Plumbing must be properly
supported and aligned with expansion joints, if required, to minimize
these forces.
4. To prevent over pressure situations, install a relief valve as close to the
pump outlet as possible. Install the relief valve before any shut-off
valves.

Guarding PTO Drive Shafts
PTO drive systems can be dangerous and when used, additional safety
precautions, including guarding, may be required and must be provided by
the drive system installer. Roper Pump Company has no responsibility for
recommending or providing proper guarding or other safety measures in
any particular application.
The installation of proper guards for the power take-off and its
associated equipment is the responsibility of the drive system designer and
the installer who know the particular product application and the user’s
exposure to danger. The ultimate responsibility for the safe application and
installation is the user’s.
Operating without guards could

result in serious injury or death.
Machinery in operation can grab,
crush, cut, mangle and
dismember. Do not operate
without adequate guards in place.

3. PREOPERATION CHECKS
Read and understand the instructions and recommendations contained in this manual.
Disconnect the coupling between the driver and pump.
Test the rotation of the driver to make sure it will operate the pump in the desired direction of rotation. Rotation is shown
on the pump in relation to the integral relief valve. When an integral relief valve is used, make sure it is positioned and
adjusted as discussed in the section titled, DIRECTION OF ROTATION AND RELIEF VALVES. After the unit is mounted
and the piping is connected, the pump should be checked to be sure it operates freely without binding. After operation is
proved satisfactory, both pump and driver should be tightly secured and the alignment rechecked before operation.
Before starting, make sure all guards are in place and the inlet and discharge valves are opened.
After starting the unit, check to see that the pump is delivering liquid. If not, stop the driver immediately. After the pump is
delivering liquid, check the unit for excessive vibration, localized heating, and excessive shaft seal leakage. Check the
pressure or vacuum by installing gauges at both the inlet and discharge sides of the pump to make sure the pressure or
vacuum conform to specifications.
WARNING If there is no pressure relief device in the system, NEVER

block the discharge line. If there is a relief valve in the system,
NEVER block the discharge line between the relief valve and
pump. High pressure will occur, resulting in possible damage
or breakage to the pump or system parts and possible injury to
personnel. DO NOT operate the pump for more than one
minute with the discharge line blocked downstream of the
relief valve. Rapid heating and possible damage will occur.
Even an open discharge line does not prevent the possibility
of high pressure. Discharge line length, diameter, and
arrangement along with fluid viscosity and velocity also can
create a high pressure situation at the pump.

5. DIRECTION OF ROTATION AND RELIEF VALVES
There are two types of integral relief valves available. The standard RV and jacketed RV are designated by the letters
“RV” in the pump nomenclature. The spec number is used when a jacketed RV relief valve is used.
STANDARD RV
This relief valve is externally adjustable by means of an adjusting screw located in the center of the relief valve cap. The
range of adjustment is approximately 30 psi [207 kPa] to 125 psi [862kPa]. The actual capability is dependent on pump
speed and liquid viscosity. The settings are for full bypass; that is, all of the fluid is circulating back to the inlet through the
relief valve. The end user must set the relief valve for conditions that exactly match the application.
JACKETED RV
This relief valve operates in exactly the same manner as the standard RV except that the faceplate is jacketed to allow
provisions for heating or cooling of the relief valve. The 48 size pump does not offer a jacketing option. The range of
adjustment is approximately 30 psi [207 kPa] to 125 psi [862 kPa].
DIRECTION OF ROTATION TAGS

RELIEF VALVE ORIENTATION
FIGURE 5.2
PROPER PUMP GEAR ROTATION

Proper gear rotation is shown on the warning tags attached to the relief valve faceplate.
WARNING
DO NOT REVERSE ROTATION
Reversing rotation of the pump without reversing the position of the relief valve faceplate will cause the relief
valve to be inoperable. Discharge pressure will be holding the valve closed instead of pushing it open. Running
the pump against the relief valve can cause very high pressure buildup on the discharge side of the pump and in
the system downstream of the pump. High pressure can cause the pump or other system component to break or
leak causing liquid in the system to escape resulting in possible injury or death.
PUMP INLET and PUMP DISCHARGE
On the RV style relief valve, either the “pump inlet” or “pump discharge” arrow will always point directly to one side port on
the cases that have one side port and one top port. The top port is connected to the side of the pump that is opposite the
side port. The “pump inlet” and “pump discharge” arrows will always point directly to the inlet and discharge ports on the
pump with straight through port cases.
An integral relief valve should not be used on applications where the discharge must be closed for more than one minute.
Prolonged operation of the pump with the discharge closed will cause rapid heating of the liquid circulating through the
relief valve, this resulting in possible damage.
DIRECTION OF ROTATION FOR THE RV STYLE RELIEF VALVE
The drawings showing DIRECTION OF ROTATION FOR PUMP CONFIGURATIONS USING THE RV STYLE RELIEF VALVE
(Figure 5.4) and position of relief valve with the letter “L” in the designation are for low drive applications (the drive shaft is
lower than the side port). All other drawings shown are for high drive applications (the drive shaft is above the side port).
The arrow in the drawing at the end of the drive shaft indicates the direction of rotation needed to achieve proper
operation of the pump and relief valve when using the pump and relief valve orientation shown in the drawing.
9
CW indicates clockwise rotation and CCW indicates counterclockwise rotation when viewed from the drive shaft end of
the pump.
To determine the correct relief valve position for any of the pump orientations, use the drawings shown titled DIRECTION
OF ROTATION FOR PUMP CONFIGURATIONS USING THE RV STYLE RELIEF VALVE (Figure 5.4):
1. Find the group of drawings with the proper drive shaft position (high or low drive). Drawings with W, Z, X, or Y
rotation are high drive pumps. Drawings with LW, LZ, LX, or LY rotation are low drive pumps. Eliminate all other
drawings.
2. In the drawings remaining, find the group of drawings with the proper direction of rotation arrow at the end of the
drive shaft. Eliminate all other drawings. CW indicates clockwise rotation and CCW indicates counterclockwise
rotation when viewed from the drive shaft end of the pump.
3. In the drawings remaining, find the group of drawings with the proper port positions (straight through or right angle).
Eliminate all other drawings.
4. In the remaining drawings, find the drawing with the proper inlet and discharge port locations. This drawing will show
the proper relief valve position for the pump configuration chosen. Note the position of the words “PUMP INLET”
printed on the end of the rotation plates fastened on the relief valve faceplate. The words “PUMP INLET” must be on
the inlet “side” of the pump in order for the relief valve to work opposite each other; the top port of the right angle
pump is connected to the “side of the pump via an internal passage.”
FIGURE 5.3
WARNING
DO NOT operate a pump with a relief valve that is not positioned correctly. The relief valve will be inoperable.
This can allow high pressure buildup on the discharge side of the pump and in the system downstream of the
pump. High pressure can cause the pump or any other system component to break or leak causing liquid in the
system to escape, resulting in possible injury or death.
NOTE: The fact that the pump has the correct rotation and pumps liquid in the correct direction does not insure that the
relief valve is installed in the correct position, or that it has the correct setting for the application.
NOTE: Some older RV style faceplates DO NOT have the rotation plates fastened to the faceplate; however, the position
of the relief valve is the same, i.e., relief valve cap and adjusting screw are offset to the discharge side of the pump.

7. INSTRUCTIONS FOR DRAINING PUMP

Refer to Section 14, PARTS LIST.
WARNING
• WARNING! Relieve all internal fluid and air pressure inside the pump before attempting to drain the pump.
• WARNING! Take necessary precautions to prevent the pump from becoming energized while draining the
pump.
• WARNING! Take necessary precautions to prevent injury or physical damage that could be caused by any
loss of the product being pumped while draining the pump.
The extent to which a pump can be drained is dependent upon the product being pumped. Low viscosity products such as
solvents will drain quickly and easily. High viscosity products such as molasses and tar will drain very slowly. Also, the
draining of high viscosity products will be less complete.
Regardless of the product pumped, the areas at the blind end of the bearing bores and the mechanical seal chamber will
not drain.
FOR PUMPS EQUIPPED WITH DRAIN PLUGS:
1. Read and understand all safety instructions and warnings before starting draining procedure.
2. There are two pipe plugs (S) in the faceplate (23A, B, C). Remove one that is in lowest position.
3. Rotate drive shaft very slowly by hand. Each time that flow from drain increases, stop turning shaft until flow
stops; then resume until flow increases again. Be sure to rotate shaft several complete revolutions in each
direction until all flow from drain has stopped.
4. Reinstall and tighten pipe plug (S).

FOR PUMPS NOT EQUIPPED WITH DRAIN PLUGS:
1. Read and understand all safety instructions and warnings before starting procedures.
2. Loosen fourteen hex head cap screws (L) for the 35 and 58 size pumps or eight hex head cap screws (L) for the
32, 43, and 48 size pumps securing faceplate (23A, B, C) to allow a gap of 1/8 of an inch [3 mm] between
faceplate and case (19A, B, C) for draining.

9. BEARING REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION

BEARING REMOVAL
Pump bearings are available in bronze, iron, carbon, and glass/graphite impregnated PTFE. Any of these bearings may be
removed using a Snap-On tool puller, part number CG45. This tool may be purchased through your local tool dealer or
through Roper Pump Company. If you DO NOT have this bearing puller, any of the bearings may be removed by using a
hacksaw blade to cut through the bearing in two places 180° apart. This procedure will usually loosen the bearing enough
to be pulled out. If this procedure is used, take care to prevent damage to the bore into which the bearing is pressed.
Carbon bearings may also be removed by carefully chipping the bearing out with a chisel. Take care not to scar the
endplate bores during the bearing removal process.
WARNING
WARNING! DO NOT chisel
bearings without wearing
proper safety glasses.
After removing the bearings, always check the endplate bores for nicks and burrs caused by the removal process. The
bores must be clean, smooth, and free of burrs before attempting to install new bearings.
20
BEARING INSTALLATION
1. Remove all burrs and raised edges from bores for bearings.
2. Place faceplate or backplate on a press base with milled face upward. Support endplate so that milled face is
perpendicular (square) with press ram.
3. Position endplate so that one bearing bore is located directly under press ram.
4. A.) If iron or bronze bearings are to be installed, lubricate endplate bores with a light oil that is compatible with
product to be pumped.
B.) If carbon bearings are to be installed, lubricate bearings by submerging them in cold water prior to
installation.
C.) If glass/graphite filled PTFE bearings are to be installed, no lubricant should be used.
5. Place end of new bearing at entrance of bore in endplate, taking care to align grooves in bearing with the grooves
in face of endplate.
6. Press bearing into endplate bore. When carbon bearings are being installed, it is important to press them in with
one slow uninterrupted stroke to prevent cracking It is best to use a stepped arbor with a few thousandths of an
inch clearance between arbor and bore of bearing. Be sure to press bearings in until they are flush to .005 of an
inch [.127 mm] below milled face of endplate.
7. Repeat procedure for second bearing.
8. Using a three square file, file shallow grooves in ends of bearings to connect grooves inside bearings with groove
on milled face of endplate. If your bearings or endplates DO NOT have grooves, omit this step.

15. SHAFT SEALING
STANDARD COMPRESSION PACKING
One type of shaft sealing used in these pumps is formed ring packing with or without a lantern ring. When using a packed
box pump, use formed packing rings. DO NOT use a one piece spiral wrap of packing. Packing rings are available in a
wide selection of materials for various applications and temperatures. Previous experience with the pumped fluid is the
best guide in selecting the proper packing ring material for your particular application.
Some backplates are furnished with tapped holes on the stuffing box to provide access to the lantern ring or packing set
for either flushing or grease lubrication. An external flush or lubrication of the packing may be necessary for proper
operation and to help prolong the life of the packing and shaft.
A flush is recommended when the fluid to be pumped is abrasive or the pump operates with negative inlet pressure
(suction lift). Clean water is often used to flush the packing. On applications where clean water is not available or where it
is incompatible with the fluid being pumped, other clean, nonhazardous liquids may be used for flushing the packing. The
flush should be supplied to the stuffing box at a rate of 1/4 to 1/2 gallons per hour (1 to 2 liters per hour). The pressure of
the flushing liquid should exceed the sum of the inlet pressure and half of the differential pressure by 10 to 15 psi [70 to
100 kPa].
If the packing is to be grease lubricated, a good grade of bearing grease should generally be used. Should bearing grease
be unacceptable or incompatible with the fluid being pump, another paste type lubricant may be used. Lubrication of the
packing must be performed with the pump stopped. Before daily start-up, if applicable, is a good time.
To lubricate the packing, stop the pump. Carefully clean the stuffing box pipe plugs of any contaminants. After removing
the pipe plugs from the stuffing box, install a lubrication fitting into one of the tapped holes. Lubricant now may be injected
into the stuffing box through the lube fitting. Inject clean, fresh unused lubricant until it is seen coming out of the other
tapped hole. Clean up any excess lubricant and remove the lube fitting. Replace the pipe plugs. This procedure should be
performed daily, prior to start-up if the pump is purchase with provisions for grease lubrication. In certain applications,
more frequent lubrication of the packing may be necessary. Experience will provide a guide as to how frequently the
packing should be lubricated. Applying lubricant often will extend the life of the packing and shaft.
CARE OF PACKING
WARNING
DO NOT work on or adjust packing while the pump is running.
If truck mounted, disengage the PTO or hydraulic drive and shut off the engine.
If motor driven, TURN OFF motor and lock out the energy source.
CLOSE VALVES on the inlet and discharge while working on the pump.
Packing hooks are commercially available to help in removing packing rings from the stuffing box. It is generally not
recommended to reuse old packing rings. When installing packing, use formed packing rings. DO NOT use a one piece
spiral wrap of packing. Before installing packing, carefully clean the stuffing box and shaft.
Packing rings should be installed one ring at a time, with the joints of adjacent rings staggered approximately 180°. Each
ring should be seated firmly before the next ring is installed. DO NOT forget to install the lantern ring if applicable. Three
rings of packing, followed by the lantern ring, should allow the lantern ring to be approximately aligned with the flush/lube
holes in the stuffing box.
The packing gland nuts should first be evenly tightened with a wrench to seat the packing firmly in the stuffing box and
against the shaft. DO NOT over-tighten the packing. The gland nuts should then be backed off until finger-tight. Connect
the flush or lubricate the packing if either method is used. After the pump is started, note the stuffing box. If the packing
leakage exceeds ten drops per minute, stop the pump and adjust the gland nuts. The gland nuts should be adjusted
evenly in 1/6 to 1/3 turn (1 to 2 flats on the nut) increments. Start the pump and allow it to operate for several minutes.
33
Again, visually examine the stuffing box for excessive leakage. Repeat the above procedure until the stuffing box leakage
is between five to ten drops per minute.
DO NOT over-tighten the packing. Slight leakage is a necessary requirement for proper packing operation. Leakage of
five to ten drops per minute when the pump is operating is desirable, as it will preserve the packing and avoid scoring of
the shaft. Over-tight packing may score shafts, increase torque requirements of the pump, damage couplings and drivers,
and generate excessive heat.
The pump should be stopped and the packing gland adjusted whenever leakage exceeds ten drops per minute. The
condition of the packing should be checked at regular intervals, the frequency depending on the type of service.
Experience will dictate how frequently the inspections should be made.
MECHANICAL SEALS
Various types of mechanical seals are available to fit most pumps. (See VARIOUS SEALING ARRANGEMENTS shown
in Figure 3.18.7 and 3.19.1). Due to the various seal types and styles available, the seal manufacturer's instructions for
installation and setting should be followed when available.
NOTE: Not all seals will fit or function in all pumps. Modification to the pump backplate, drive shaft, and/or retainer may
be required. Consult with Roper Pump Company or an authorized distributor if you are considering a seal change in your
pump.
For removal or installation of mechanical seals, refer to disassembly and assembly procedures for pumps.
CONVERSION FROM PACKED BOX TO MECHANICAL SEAL OR MECHANICAL SEAL TO PACKED BOX
Conversion kits are available to convert from a packed box pump to a mechanical seal pump or vice versa. Contact your
authorized distributor or Roper Pump Company for availability of conversion kits.
INSTALLATION OF A POSITIVE DRIVE SEAL (JOHN CRANE TYPE 8-1 AND TYPE 9)
Refer to the exploded parts drawing (Figure 15.1) and to the appropriate seal chamber dimensional drawing (Figure 15.3).
1. Machine a counterbore at entrance to seal chamber of backplate (6A, B) as shown in dimensional drawing
