No stress must be imposed on the pump casing by
the pipe work; neither by the wei ght of the pipes
nor by the tight ening of badly fitting pipes
(figure 6). All pipe worked attached to the pump
must be fully supported and the mating faces of
the pipe flanges must be parallel and all bolt holes
coincidi ng with each other. (see tabl e of maximum
forces on flanges) It is important ,therefore, that
alignment of the pump and motor should be re-
checked after the pipes are fi nall y fitted. R eset- Avoid stress on the pump casing

ting or supporting the pipes must correct any
deviation in the al i gnment.
For difficult pumping on the suction side, to stabi-
lise the flow, a pipe length 15 times the diameter
of the suction branch should be installed before
the suction branch.
• The flow rate i n t he suction line or inflow line must
not exceed 2 - 3 m/s.
• Pipe velocity may need to be reduced further to
satisfy pump NPSH requi rements and to control
suction pipe losses (refer figure 6).

after overhaul, the pipe work associated with the
pumps must be flushed through. This will clear

Reassembly of mechanical seal is as follows:
• Ex treme cl eanli ness must be observed during ins-

ting rings must be avoided
• Place t he adjusting ring of mechanical seal at its
pre marked position
• Place the grab screw(13) at its position on the
adjusting ring, but tight it yet
• The O-rings may be oiled to reduce friction, during
installation of the seal. EP-rubber O-rings should Location of mechanical seal of shaft

The dismounting must be done by qualified per-
sonal.
Clean and decontamination must be achieved
before any transportation or recycling
