standards. By the motor eyebolt should only lift it, never months in an indoor installation. It is client responsibility to

pump should be stored in a dry room where the
atmospheric humidity is as constant as possible.

that have contact with the pumped liquid and are not
painted, for example, stuffing box, wear rings, flanges

When the pump contain packing and performance test is
executed, after test, the pump is drained without

RUSTILO DW 301, moving the rotor to optimize the
application. Thereafter the RUSTILO is drained. The shaft
exposed areas (end and region between gland cover and
bearing bracket) receive an application of TECTYL 506, by

9.1 Baseplate grouting and introduce shims to correct the leveling between the
metallic chock block and the baseplate.
Place the anchor bolts in the holes of foundation block
according to the drawing dimensions. Between the base
and foundation block must be placed besides the anchor
bolts, metallic chocks of same height for base support.
The chock blocks must be set with grout. The anchor bolts
are set with concrete of appropriate feature, using for
positioning a mould with holes according to Foundation
plan. For perfect adherency, the anchor bolts and metallic
chocks must be free of any residue of grease or oil.
The base should be placed over the foundation block after
grout and concrete cure.

Fig.5. Baseplate leveling

Note.: After leveling the base and before concrete fulfill,

the motor-pump set must be pre-aligned according to the
instructions of item 9.4.

9.3 Grouting
For a solid settle and operation free of vibrations, the base
interior must be fullfilled with appropriate concrete. The
concrete preparation must be done with specific products
available in the civil construction market, which avoid
shrinkage during the cure process, as well as provide

The axial and radial alignment must remain in the
allowance of 0,1 mm with pump and drive bolts definitely
tightened.
If it is not possible to use a dial indicator, use the straight
edge leaned in the longitudinal direction in both parts of
coupling sleeve. The control must be executed for
horizontal and vertical plans. For control in the axial
direction, use gauge. The clearance between the coupling
sleeve hubs, specified by the manufacturer must be
applied.

Fig.6. Base fulfill with grout

9.4 Coupling alignment

The perfect alignment between the pump and the drive will
affect the rotor useful life and equipament functioning free
of abnormal vibrations.
The alignment performed at the factory must be
rechecked, since during transport and handling the set is
subjected to distortions that affect the initial alignment.

After concrete cure, perform the alignment with suction

and discharge piping already connected. Fig.9. Alignment with metallic ruler and gauge
The alignment must be executed with dial indicator for
radial and axial dislocating control. 9.5 Recommendation for suction piping
Settle the instrument base in the peripherical part of one of
the coupling halves, and adjust the dial indicator To install the suction piping follow these instructions:
positioning the feeler perpendicular to the peripheric of
other coupling half. A. Connect the suction piping to the pump only after the

be adopted for the axial control (Fig. 8). possible reducing pressure losses - and totally air
tight, preventing any air leaks.

C. In order to be free of air pockets, the horizontal

section of the suction piping, when negative, should
be installed with gradual rise slope. When positive,
the horizontal section of the pipeline should be
installed with a gradual rise slope to the suction tank.

D. The nominal diameter of the pump suction flange

does not determine the suction pipe nominal
diameter. To calculate the ideal diameter as a
reference, the liquid velocity can be defined between
3.2 ft/s and 6.5 ft/s (1 and 2 m/s).

generatrix, so as to prevent air pockets.

F. Curves and accessories, when needed should be

designed and installed reducing pressure losses to a
minimum, i.e. always prefer long or medium radius
curves.

5
 Meganorm
G. The suction line flange should fit to the pump suction
flange without any stress or tension and without
applying any kind of force to the casing. The pump
should never be an anchor point for the suction
pipeline. If this condition is not observed a
misalignment may happen, originating cracks on
pump parts and/or other severe damages.

H. On installations equipped with foot valve, observe that

the free passage area should be 1.5 times the cross
sectional area of the suction pipeline. Normally
coupled to the foot valve there should be a suction
strainer with a free passage area 3 to 4 times larger
than the cross sectional area of the suction pipeline.

I. When the liquid being pumped has large temperature

variations, expansion joints should be installed
preventing the effects of contractions and expansions
of the suction pipeline on the pump. Fig. 10 Negative suction

J. With positive suction, it is advisable to install an inlet

valve to close the flow to the pump when necessary.
During the pump operation it should stay totally open.
A suction with a common header for several pumps
should have an inlet valve for each pump and the
connection between the header and each suction line
should be made with line angle changes less than 45
degrees. In all these applications of gate valves, the
valve stems should be directed either horizontally or
vertically downwards.

K. To prevent turbulence, leakage of air, sand or mud at

the pump suction, all recommendations of the
HYDRAULIC INSTITUTE referred to the these types
of installation should be strictly observed.

L. Even if the coupling alignment has been checked

before tightening, it has to be repeated after the final Fig. 11 Positive suction
tightening of the suction pipeline.

M. To facilitate the mounting of the suction pipeline and 9.6 Recommendations for discharge
the fitting of the parts, install as necessary, flexible piping
joints of the following types: Dresser, common or
special with tie bolts. To install the discharge pipeline, please follow the
instructions below:

A. If the overpressures caused by the returning of the

liquid in long pipe lines, exceed the limits specified for
the line and the pump, water hammer control devices
should be installed on the discharge pipe line.

B. When the diameters of the pump and pipeline flanges

are different, the connections should be done through
a concentric reduction.

C. On the points where it is necessary to bleed the air in

the pipeline, vent valves should be installed.

D. Install a discharge valve, if possible immediately after

the discharge nozzle of the pump in order to properly
control the flow rate and pressure or to prevent driver
overloads.

E. When a non-return valve is installed, it should be

mounted between the pump and the discharge valve,
prevailing this condition over item D.
