INTRODUCTION

SAFETY

This manual contains instructions for installation,

operation and maintenance of your Flowserve Centrifugal pump. It has been designed to provide safe
and reliable service. However, it is both a pressure
vessel and a piece of rotating machinery. Therefore
the operator(s) must exercise good judgement and
proper safety practices to avoid damage to the
equipment and surroundings and prevent personal
injury.

It is assumed that your safety department has established a safety program based upon a thorough
analysis of industrial hazards. Before installing and
operating or performing maintenance on the pump
and associated components described in this manual, the safety program must be reviewed to ensure
that it covers the hazards arising from high- speed
rotating machinery.
It is important that due consideration be given to
those hazards which arise from the presence of
electrical power, hot oil, high-pressure and high-temperature liquids, toxic liquids and gases and flammable liquids and gases. Proper installation and care
of protective guards, shutdown devices and overpressure protection equipment should also be considered a mandatory part of any safety program.

The instructions in this manual are intended for the

guidance of personnel with a general training in operation and maintenance of Centrifugal Pumps. It is
our hope that you will become acquainted with its
content as an aid to better pump performance. This
manual should be read in its entirety before installing
and/or operating the equipment. The Assembly
Drawings (included in Appendix) and General Arrangement Drawing (included in Appendix) should
be consulted for accurate details and determination
of specific optional features that are furnished with
your pump. All numbers in parentheses ( ) following
part names correspond with Exploded View Noun
Codes. EXAMPLE. (1-003A) Exploded View #1,
Noun Code #003A Impeller Assembly. Exploded
Views are included in Section 8.

Also essential are special precautionary measures

to prevent the possibility of applying power to the
equipment at any time when maintenance work is in
progress. The prevention of rotation due to reverse
flow should not be overlooked.
In general, all personnel should be guided by all the
basic rules of safety associated with the equipment
and the process.

NOTE

DA SLV/KTB

DESCRIPTION
The installation/commissioning of this equipment
must be conducted in accordance with API Recommended Practices 686/PIP REIE 686 First Edition.
Refer to API 610 Eighth Edition Appendix `L for
baseplate grouting requirements.

The DA pump is a multistage, single suction opposed impeller, horizontally split volute pump.

Copies of API Recommended `Practices 686/PIP

REIE 686 First Edition may be obtained from
America Petroleum Institute, 1220 L Street, N.W.,
Washington, DC 20005. Telephone (202) 6828000.

Rotating parts are accessible by removing the upper-half casing which can be removed without
breaking suction and discharge piping.

The suction and discharge nozzles are cast integral

with the lower half casing.

CASING
The casing provides for immediate containment of
the liquid being pumped, while directing the flow of
liquid from the suction nozzle to the impellers and
subsequently through the volute to the discharge
nozzle.

1-2

Introduction

THROTTLING SLEEVE

The casing halves are sealed by the use of a gasket

and are joined together by studs, which are installed
in the lower half casing and fastened with washers
and cap nuts.

Renewable type throttling sleeve is used under the

throttling bushing. The throttling sleeve is tubular,
keyed, has a shrink fit to the shaft, and is held in
position by a split ring.

IMPELLERS

THROTTLING BUSHING

The impellers are single suction, enclosed type, onepiece construction and are dynamically balanced.

Renewable type throttling bushing is used. It is held

in position by the annular ring of the bushing engaging the annular groove in the casing.

They are fitted with renewable impeller rings (front

and back) which are held in place by headless setscrews.

The throttling bushing, in conjunction with the throttling sleeve, allows pressure to be bled off thru the
balance lines, so that pressure on the stuffing boxes
is balanced. The throttling bushing also balances
the axial thrust of the pump rotor.

The impellers are keyed, have a shrink fit to the

pump shaft and are held in axial position by a split
ring.
CASING RINGS

SHAFT
Casing rings are positioned over the impeller front
rings. These rings are tubular and renewable.

The high-strength shaft is ground over its entire

length to close tolerances. The shaft is designed to
transmit the required power without vibration and is
stepped at each impeller fit for ease of assembly
and disassembly.

CHANNEL RINGS
Renewable channel rings are positioned over the
impeller back rings. They divide the casing into
stages. These rings are horizontally split and are
held together by shoulder screws.

SHAFT SLEEVES
Renewable shaft sleeves are provided with pumps
equipped with packed stuffing boxes to protect the
shaft at the stuffing box areas. The sleeves are tubular type, keyed to the shaft, and held in position by
the retaining rings.

CENTER SLEEVE
A renewable type center sleeve is used under the
center bushing. The center sleeve is tubular and
keyed to the shaft (via the impeller key).

BEARING LINING
CENTER BUSHING
The bearings are carbon steel backed, babbitt lined,
sleeve-type insert bearings. The bearing inserts are
mounted in the bearing bodies and kept from rotating by means of stop pins. The bearing inserts are
renewable.

DA SLV/KTB

The renewable center bushing is horizontally split,

the two halves are held together by socket-head
capscrews and taper dowel pins. It is held in position by the raised annular ring of the bushing engaging the annular groove in the casing.
MS

THRUST BEARING (Refer to Kingsbury Drawing)

The center bushing, in conjunction with center
sleeve, divides the casing at the center (back-toback) impellers.

The Kingsbury thrust bearing is of the equalizing

type, having six thrust shoes on each side of the
thrust collar, and is consequently capable of transmitting the thrust load in either direction. The thrust
is transmitted through the thrust collar to the shoes,
by the shoes to the shoe supporting elements, and
thence to the bearing body and the foundation.

Introduction

STUFFING BOXES

CARE DURING STORAGE

The stuffing boxes are cast integral with the casing.

The suction and discharge end stuffing boxes can
be equipped with a cartridge type mechanical seal or
stuffing box packing.

(see Extended Storage Requirements)

If it is necessary to store the unit any length of time
before installation, find a vibration-free location that
is protected from unfavorable weather.

RECEIPT INSPECTION

The nozzle covers provided with the unit should be

left in place during storage.

NOTE
The following information regarding receiving is only
offered as a general guideline to the customer.
Flowserve Corp. requires that all receiving be conducted in accordance with specifications set forth in
Chapter 3 -`Jobsite Receiving and Protection from
API Recommended Practices 686/PIP REIE 686,
First Edition.

Electric motors (pump driver) should not be stored in

damp places without special protection (refer to motor manufacturers instructions).

PAINTING/RUST PREVENTIVE
Internal parts of the pump and bearing housings are
protected prior to shipment with a thin-film polar-type
rust preventive [pump internals (Ferrocote 5684),
bearing housings (MIL-C-16173 Grade 3)]. This can
be removed by flushing with natural citrus solvent.

The pump and its associated equipment were carefully inspected at the factory prior to shipment to ensure compliance with the purchase requirements
and job specification. It is suggested that the pump
be inspected upon arrival and that any irregularities
or damage be reported to the carrier immediately.

External machined surfaces are protected with durable drying-type rust preventive (MIL-C-16173 Grade
1). This can be removed with kerosene or safety
solvent (Tower No. 392).

The condition of the skid and covering is indicative

of the way the shipment was handled. Broken skids,
torn coverings, bent hold-down bolts, broken straps,
etc. indicate rough handling.

External non-machined surfaces are painted with

one coat of gray enamel followed by a coat of multicolor speckle lacquer.

The protective covers on the pump nozzles should

be in place and undamaged. The shipping papers
should be checked to determine satisfactory arrival
of any special tools, loose parts, and/or spare parts,
etc., which are usually preserved and packed in a
separate box attached to the skid.

Exception: External non-machined surfaces of the

o
pump [if operating at a temperature above 200 F.
o
(94 C)] are painted with a high-temperature aluminum base paint.
Parts ordered separately are protected with a thinfilm polar-type rust preventive. This can be removed
with petroleum solvents.

DA SLV/KTB

If any damage is discovered and/or parts are missing, notify the carrier or nearest Flowserve office
immediately.

MS

UNPACKING
The pump should arrive already mounted on the
bedplate and it is therefore suggested that the unpacking of the equipment should proceed per instruction as outlined in this manual.
In general, care is to be taken when removing crating, coverings, and strapping in order not to damage
any auxiliary equipment and/or the paint finish.

THE POSSIBILITY OF SEAL LEAKAGE. WHEN
RE-INSTALLING THE SEAL, NEW "O RINGS
AND GASKETS MUST BE USED.

GENERAL
If at all possible, the pump and its components
should be stored indoors where they will be protected from the elements. If it is not possible to store
the pump and its components indoors, precautions
must be taken to protect them from the elements.
Regardless of whether storage is inside or outside,
the storage area should be vibration-free. All boxes
that are marked for inside storage must be stored
indoors. The pump and its components, when
stored outdoors, should be protected from dirt, dust,
rain, snow or other unfavorable conditions by coverings of heavy-gauge plastic sheets, canvas, waterproof burlap or other suitable coverings.

INSPECTION UPON ARRIVAL

When the pump is received, it should be inspected
for damage or other signs of rough handling. Any
damage found should be reported to the carrier immediately.
Inspect the preservative coating on the various
parts. If necessary, renew the preservative in areas
where it has been rubbed off or scraped.

All equipment must be placed upon skids or blocks

to prevent contact with the ground and surface contaminants. Equipment must be adequately supported to prevent distortion and bending.

Inspect all painted surfaces. If necessary, touch up

the areas where paint has been chipped or scraped.

ROTOR STORAGE
It is recommended that pump rotor be stored in the
pump. Multistage diffusor-type pump rotors that
cannot be stored in the pump must be supported at
the channel rings so that rotor weight is evenly distributed. Single-stage and volute-type pump rotors not
stored in pump must be supported close to im- peller(s) to eliminate sag that may cause rotor to take a
permanent set.

Inspect all covers over pump openings and piping

connections. If covers or seals for the covers are
damaged or loose, they are to be removed, and a
visual inspection made of the accessible interior areas for accumulation of foreign materials or water. If
necessary, clean and recoat the interior parts with
preservative to restore the parts to the as shipped

When selecting the location, be sure to allow adequate space for operation as well as for mainteance operations involving dismantling and inspection
of parts.
Head room is an important consideration, as an
overhead lift of some type is required.

FOUNDATION

Template For Hanging Foundation Bolts

NOTE

The sketch illustrates a recommended foundation

bolt arrangement. Notice the large washer with lugs
at the bottom. It should be welded to the bolt and
pipe sleeve to prevent turning.

The following information regarding foundation is

only offered as a general guideline to the customer.
Flowserve Corp. requires that all foundations be designed/installed in accordance with specifications set
forth in Chapter 4 - `Foundations from API Recommended Practices 686/PIP REIE 686, First Edition.

Allow a little more than the specified threaded bolt

length above the rail of the baseplate. The excess
can always be cut off it not needed.

The design of foundations, is not the responsibility of

Flowserve Corp. It is therefore recommended that
the customer consult a competent specialist skilled
in the field of foundations, to insure proper design/
installation of the foundation.

A rough finish top surface is best when applying

grout.

The foundation should be sufficiently rigid and substantial to prevent any pump vibration and to permanently support the bedplate at all points.
The most satisfactory foundations are made of reinforced concrete. These should be poured well in
advance of the installation to allow proper time for
drying and curing.

LEVEL THE BEDPLATE

NOTE
The following information regarding leveling of
equipment is only offered as a general guideline to
the customer. Flowserve Corp. requires that all leveling of equipment be performed in ac- cordance
with specifications set forth in Chapter 5 - `Mounting
Plate Grouting from API Recommended Practices
686/PIP REIE 686, First Edition.

Level the bedplate by using a machinists level on

the machined surfaces of the pump and driver pads.
When the bedplate is leveled, pull down the foundation bolts so they are snug. The bedplate may have
been disturbed by tightening the foundation bolts;
therefore, recheck with level and make necessary
adjustments by wedges or shimming.

Before putting the unit on the foundation, thoroughly

clean the top of the foundation. Break off any loose
pieces of cement and roughen the top with a chisel
to afford a good hold for grout.

As a final bedplate alignment check on spacer type

couplings, install a mounting bracket for dial indicator on driver hub. Fasten or clamp indicator on
mounting bracket, so that dial indicator button is
con- tacting the face of the pump half coupling, and
zero the dial indicator. (Non-spacer type coupling
should be check with tapered wedge or feeler
gages.)

NOTE
Coupling bolting and spacer piece (when used) must
be removed from between pump/driver half couplings
before lifting baseplate with pump element.

Rotate the driver half coupling (in direction of pump

o
rotation) 90 . Record this reading.

NOTE
Repeat this procedure until readings have been
o
taken at four 90 positions.

DA SLV/KTB

When lifting bedplate with pumping element, sling

bedplate from all lifting eyes provided. Failure to do
this may result in permanent deformation of bedplate.

PRELIMINARY ALIGNMENT
Using the previous procedure, shim and/or wedge
bedplate until pump and driver are within .003 in.
(.076 mm).

Prepare enough iron wedges or shims to be placed

on each side of each foundation bolt.
These
wedges should be about 4 in.(102 mm) to 6 in.(152
mm) long by 2 in.(51 mm) to 3 in.(76 mm) wide and
thick enough to allow for 1-1/4 in.(32 mm) of grout
under the edge of the bedplate. Place wedges as
shown in sketch.

Installation

Holes are provided in the bedplate to permit pouring the

grout and stirring. They also act as air vents. Fill under
the bedplate completely, stirring to assure proper distribution of the grout. Check to see that the grout flows
under the edges of the bedplate evenly.

GROUTING
NOTE
The following information regarding grouting is only
offered as a general guideline to the customer.
Flowserve Corp. requires that all grouting be installed in accordance with specifications set forth in
Chapter 5 - `Mounting Plate Grouting from API Recommended Practices 686/PIP REIE 686, First Edition.

NOTE
Do not vibrate bedplate when grouting; make sure bedplate is vented properly and all areas indicated on General Arrangement drawing are thoroughly puddled to
prevent any resonant problems.

It is recommended that the customer consult a competent specialist skilled in the field of grouting, to
insure the proper installation of all grouting.

When the grout is thoroughly hardened, remove the

dam and wedges, if desired, filling in the holes they
leave with grout.

Build a dam around the foundation. It is a matter of

personal preference whether the leveling wedges under the bedplate should be removed after grouting. If
you do want to remove the wedges, carefully mark
their locations before pouring grout.

SHAFT/COUPLING ALIGNMENT
NOTE
The following information regarding shaft alignment
is only offered as a general guideline to the customer. Flowserve Corp. requires that all shaft alignment
be performed in accordance with specifications set
forth in Chapter 7 - `Shaft Alignment from API Recommended Practices 686/PIP REIE 686, First Edition.

CAUTION
SHAFT ALIGNMENT MUST BE CORRECT FOR
SUCCESSFUL OPERATION. RAPID WEAR, NOISE,

Installation

Coupled equipment must be aligned to minimize unnecessary stresses in shafts, bearings and coupling.
Flexible couplings will not compensate for appreciable misalignment. Foundation settling, thermal expansion or nozzle loads resulting in baseplate/foundation deflection and vibration during operation may
require the full coupling misalignment capability.
Combination Offset
And
Angular Misalignment

TYPES OF MISALIGNMENT
There are two types of shaft misalignment: Angular
and offset. Therefore, two sets of measurements
and corrections are required. Both types of misalignment can occur in horizontal and vertical planes
and are present in most applications.
A.

ALIGNMENT
A. Measure Gap

Angular Misalignment

The first step in shaft/coupling alignment is to bring

the pump and driver shafts into their proper axial
position. The shaft gap, or distance between coupling hubs, must be in accordance with the certified
General Arrangement Drawing and must be measured with pump and driver shafts in the center of
their axial end float. Motor with sleeve bearings is to
be aligned with rotor at magnetic center.

In angular misalignment, the centerline of the shafts

intersect, but are not on the same axis.

Move driver to insure proper gap distance.

NOTE

B. Offset Misalignment

It is recommended that the pump hold-down bolting be

torqued and the pump be dowelled before taking any
alignment measurements. This makes the pump the
fixed machine and the driver the movable machine. In
certain cases, however, it may be impractical to move
the driver; therefore, the pump may have to be moved.
When this case exists, the pump should not be dowelled until after final alignment.

In offset misalignment, the shaft centerline are parallel but do not intersect.

B. Measure Angular Misalignment

Refer to ALIGNMENT DATA SHEET and examples.

6. For 0 ,90 ,180 ,270 Columns, subtract the bottom from the top and left from right. Record in their
respective blocks on Data Sheet. Watch sign notations.

The angular misalignment can best be determined

by the use of a hand-held inside micrometer, marked
B on sketch. All measurements should be taken at
the same radial distance from the shaft centerline,
as close as possible to the hub outside diameter.
The location of these measurements is defined as
the D dimension on the ALIGNMENT DATA
SHEET. Do not move the shafts axially while rotating the shafts and taking measurements. Both hubs
must be rotated together to cancel possible hub face
runout. The relative measurement (top minus bottom, right minus left) is the important number.

7. Total the different numbers (reading across), divide by 4 and record the average_____. Record in
Open At _____ the shaft relative angular position.
NOTE
The inside faces of the driver and pump half hubs
must be parallel within .001 in.(.0254 mm).
C. Measure Offset Misalignment

1. Mark both coupling hubs at 3,6,9 and 12 oclock

o
positions so they can be rotated together and at 90
intervals.

Offset misalignment is measured using a dial indicator on the outside diameter of the coupling hubs
and rotating the hubs together to cancel rim surface
inaccuracies.
1. Starting with the 12 oclock markings of both
hubs on top center, fasten or clamp an indicator on
driver hub, marked A on sketch, with dial indicator
button contacting alignment surface on the pump
hub.
2. Zero the dial indicator.
3. Rotate both coupling hubs (in the direction of
pump rotation) 90o and take a reading. Record on
ALIGNMENT DATA SHEET-Sheet 1, Part 2 in the
proper right side or left side blank (right or left sides
are determined when viewing the driver half coupling
from the pump).

DA SLV/KTB

2. Starting with the 12 oclock markings of both

hubs in the top center position, measure the gap at
top, bottom, right and left side. Record these dimensions on ALIGNMENT DATA SHEET Sheet 1,
o
Part 1 in the 0 Column.
NOTE

4. Repeat Step 3 until readings have been taken at

o
the four 90 positions (top center, right, bottom and
left).

Right side and left side are determined when viewing

the driver coupling from the pump.

5. Rotate both shafts to the starting position (12

oclock markings at top center) and verify indicator
returns to zero.

3. Rotate both shafts 90 in the direction of pump

rotation. Measure gap dimensions at the four locations as in Step 2. Record on ALIGNMENT DATA

ASSEMBLE AND LUBRICATE COUPLING

The shims between the equipment feet and mounting surface should be clean and dry. This is especially critical for pumps that have been in service for
some time and need to be realigned. Water, dirt and
rust may change the height of the shim pack over a
period of time. Shims should be made large enough
to support the weight of the equipment on its mounting foot. Do not use many thin shims, as this may
result in a spongy mounting.

Recommended Shim Design

Move the equipment vertically by adding or removing the calculated thickness of shims. Torque equipment hold-down bolting to required values.

The pump feet at the opposite end are held from

moving vertically by the use of a self locking nut.
The clearance between the base of the nut and the
top of the pump foot should be .002 in.(.051 mm).

C. Pump Driver

The horizontal movement is controlled by a Gib

block running parallel to the length of the pump at
each of the outboard feet. The Gib Blocks are
bolted and dowelled to the baseplate at the time of
mounting at the factory. A .010 in.(.254 mm) gap is
maintained between the Gib Block and pump foot.

Refer to driver outline drawing and/or driver

instructions for dowelling information.

HOT ALIGNMENT CHECK

IMPORTANT

A hot check can only be made after the unit has

been in operation a sufficient length of time to
assume its NORMAL operating temperature and
conditions. If the unit has been properly cold set,
the offset misalignment will be within .003 in.(.076
mm) TIR and the angular misalignment will be within
.001 in.(.0254 mm) TIR when in operation. If not,
make adjustments.

The self locking nuts which hold the pump from

moving in a vertical motion are clamped tight to the
pump foot at time of shipment. The .002 in.(.051
mm) clearance must be established at time of installation.

Install a check valve and a gate valve in the discharge pipe on the pump. When the pump is
stopped, the check valve will protect the pump
against excessive pressure and will prevent the
pump from running backward. The check valve
should be installed between the gate valve and the
pump nozzle in order to permit its inspection. The
gate valve is also useful in priming and starting the
pump.

WARNING
BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY INSPECTION OR
REPAIR ON THE PUMP, THE DRIVER CONTROLS
MUST BE IN THE OFF POSITION, LOCKED
AND TAGGED TO PREVENT INJURY TO PERSONNEL PERFORMING SERVICE ON THE PUMP.
PIPING

Keep the suction pipe short and direct. Use a suction pipe at least one size larger than the pump suction nozzle. Keep the suction pipe free of all air
pockets.

NOTE
The following information regarding piping is only
offered as a general guideline to the customer.
Flowserve Corp. requires that all piping and related
systems be designed/installed in accordance with
specifications set forth in Chapter 6 -`Piping from
API recommended practices 686/PIP REIE 686, First
Edition.

IMPORTANT
A spool piece should be installed in suction line so
that the suction screen may be installed and removed.

The design of piping, and related systems, is not the

responsibility of Flowserve Corp. It is therefore recommended that the customer consult a competent
specialist skilled in the field of piping, to insure
proper design/installation of all piping.

Installation
SUCTION STRAINER

CAUTION

In a new installation, great care should be taken to

prevent dirt, scale and welding beads from entering
the pump. Even when piping has been previously
flushed, it is difficult to break loose the oxides and
mill scale which will become free when the pipe
heats and cools several times. Numerous close
running clearances are vulnerable to abrasive matter
present in new piping. Foreign material may be
large enough, or of sufficient volume, to jam a pump,
with probable damage to both pump and drive
equipment. Smaller size material passing through
the pump can cause rapid pump wear and premature pump failure.

EXCESSIVE FORCE USED TO TRY TO FREE A

BOUND ROTOR MAY CAUSE DAMAGE BEYOND
MINOR CLEAN-UP AND REPAIR OF ROTOR
PARTS.
Generally, a pump should not be installed without
start-up strainer protection.
The suction piping
should be thoroughly flushed before installing the
suction strainer and connecting the suction piping to
the pump. The strainer should be installed in the
inlet piping near the pump, making certain that it is
located where it may be readily serviced (cleaned).
Be sure, however, that the installed strainer will not
distort the flow to the pump suction nozzle.

This pump is provided with the exception that it will

be pumping clean liquids (unless otherwise stated in
the order and addressed in the proposal).
Flowserve pumps are provided with running clearances ranging typically from 0.005 inch(0.12 mm) to
0.030 inch(0.80 mm), depending on the service. It is
impractical to install a suction strainer to remove particulate of this size. Such particles will normally pass
through the pump without causing damage, providing the concentrations are minor.

Do not install the strainer directly on the pump suction nozzle. For a cone-type strainer, the downstream end of the cone should be no closer than four
(4) pipe diameters from the pump suction nozzle.
Basket-type strainers typically introduce greater flow
disturbances and should be installed at least six (6)
pipe diameters from the pump suction nozzle.
The Flowserve standard for suction strainers consists of conical-shaped steel plate with 1/8 perforations. The open area of the strainer should be a
minimum of three times the area of the pump suction.

DA SLV/KTB

The possibility exists that, on shutdown of the pump,

such particles can become trapped in the close running clearances during coastdown, causing binding.
Flowserve cannot recommend a procedure that will
totally prevent such binding; however, we strongly
suggest that systems be cleaned and thoroughly
flushed prior to connecting the pump to the piping to
minimize particles entering the pump. Starting and
stopping of the pump should be MINIMIZED as
pumps are most susceptible to dirt during starts and
stops.
In the event that binding on coastdown occurs, it is
unlikely that the binding can be remedied by hand
rolling the rotor, and partial disassembly may be required to clean the affected parts. It should be noted
that increased particle concentrations increase the
probability of coastdown binding and seizures, as
well as erosion damage.

2-14

Installation
When dirt and scale have been removed from the
system, as indicated by no further change in pressure drop across the strainer with time, the start-up
strainer may be removed or the screen may be replaced with one having larger openings. If a permanent strainer will be used during normal operation,
the pressure differential needs to be monitored on a
continuous basis.

DA SLV/KTB

At all times when using suction strainers, it is critical

that the pressure drop across the strainer be constantly monitored to ensure that the pump suction
pressure does not fall below that required to prevent
pump cavitation. Pressure (or vacuum) gauges
should be installed on both sides of the strainer so
that the pressure drop across the strainer can be
monitored.
During start-up of the system, the
gauges should be monitored continuously. Consult
the plant engineer or system designer for the allowable pressure differential across the strainer prior to
operating the pump. Pressure differential across the
strainer and/or screen is typically no more than 2 3
psig. An increase in the differential pressure between the two gauges indicates that the strainer or
screen is becoming clogged with dirt and scale. Before the pressure drop becomes so severe that cavitation occurs, the pump should be shut down and
the strainer cleaned. Alarm settings to protect the
pump from damaging cavitation and loss of suction
need to be supplied by the plant engineer or system
designer prior to operating the pump. Typical alarm
settings to protect the pump from damaging cavitation and loss of suction would be 5 psig differential
pressure across the strainer (screen). The suction
piping should be arranged such that the ultimate
strainer configuration (location) allows ready access
for cleaning.

If a permanent strainer is not used, the start-up

strainer needs to be temporarily reinstalled whenever the system is opened up for repair or routine
maintenance. As long as a suction strainer or
screen remains in place, the differential pressure
should be monitored on a regular basis.

CAUTION
THE PRESSURE DROP ACROSS THE STRAINER
IS A DIRECT REDUCTION IN THE NPSH AVAILABLE TO THE PUMP. NPSH AVAILABLE MUST
ALWAYS EXCEED THE NPSH REQUIRED BY THE
PUMP. THIS REQUIREMENT MAY LIMIT THE
PUMP FLOW RATE, PARTICULARLY DURING
START-UP OPERATION. ALARMS OR AUTOMATIC PUMP SHUT-DOWN DEVICES SHOULD
BE INSTALLED TO MINIMIZE THE POSSIBILITY
OF PUMP DAMAGE. IT IS THE RESPONSBILITY
OF THE PUMP OPERATOR TO OBTAIN THE ALLOWABLE PRESSURE DROP ACROSS THE
STRAINER FOR SAFE PUMP OPERATION FROM
THE PLANT ENGINEER OR SYSTEM DESIGNER
PRIOR TO OPERATION OF THE PUMP.

The strainer may be fitted with a finer screen to filter

the inlet flow. When this is done, 40 mesh screen is
typically used for start-up operation, at reduced flow
rates. For final operation in a closed system, the
suction strainers are normally removed after the system is cleaned. For critical pump applications,
where continuous screening of suction flow is desirable, and in open systems, 20 mesh screening is
typically used for permanent strainers. At all times,
when using screens and suction strainers, it is critical that pressure drop across the screen and/or
strainer be constantly monitored to ensure that the
pump suction pressure does not fall below that required to prevent cavitation.

COUPLING ALIGNMENT CHECK

Refer to the section entitled SHAFT/COUPLING
ALIGNMENT and perform a coupling alignment
check as outlined. This check is recommended to
insure the alignment has not been disturbed during
the grouting of the bedplate or while installing suction and discharge piping.

GIB BLOCK INSTALLATION

Step 4

Gib blocks are installed to control the direction of

thermal growth while maintaining pump-motor coupling alignment. They are installed after baseplate
has been leveled and grouted, suction and discharge piping connected, and final shaft coupling
alignment is completed.

Tighten the hold-down bolts for the gib blocks.

Gib blocks are shipped loose and field installed at

the site. The following procedure must be followed
for correct installation of gib blocks.

Operation
The head of liquid necessary to push the required
flow into the pump is called the Net Positive Suction
Head. This value, more commonly called NPSH, is
measured above the vapor pressure of the liquid at
the pumping temperature.

TECHNICAL DATA
These pumps are furnished for a particular service
condition. Changes in the hydraulic system may
affect the pumps performance adversely. This is
especially true if the changes reduce the pressure at
the suction flange or if the liquid temperature is increased. In case of doubt, contact the nearest
Flowserve Office.

There are two kinds of NPSH. The NPSH required

by the pump, as shown on the pump curve, is the
head needed to cover the losses in the pump suction. The second NPSH is that available in the system, taking into account friction loss in suction piping, valves, fittings, etc. In all cases, the NPSH
Available (measured above vapor pressure) must
exceed the NPSH Required in order to push the liquid into the pump.

SPECIFIC GRAVITY
The capacity and total head of liquid developed by a
centrifugal pump are fixed for every point on the
curve and are always the same for the same speed.
Neither capacity nor total head will be affected by a
change in the specific gravity of the liquid pumped.
However, since the developed pressure and the
brake horsepower to drive the pump are a function
of the specific gravity of the liquid, both will be affected in direct proportion by any change in specific
gravity. Therefore, a change in specific gravity will
affect the discharge gage pressure. Any changes
should be noted, in that they may overload the
pumps driver.

OPERATING PRECAUTIONS

WARNING
DO NOT WIPE DOWN IN THE VICINITY OF ROTATING PARTS. IF UNUSUAL NOISE OR VIBRATIONS OCCUR, SECURE THE PUMP AS
SOON AS POSSIBLE.

VISCOSITY

WARNING

The pump is designed to deliver rated capacity at

rated head for a liquid with a particular viscosity.

THE UNIT MUST NOT BE OPERATED UNLESS

COUPLING GUARD IS BOLTED IN PLACE.
FAILURE TO OBSERVE THIS COULD RESULT IN
INJURY TO OPERATING PERSONNEL.

When contemplating operation at some viscosity

other than that for which the pump was originally
designed, the changed conditions should be referred
to Flowserve Corp. for our recommendations.

CAUTION

DA SLV/KTB

CHANGING PUMP SPEED

LUBRICATION SYSTEM MUST BE IN OPERATION BEFORE STARTING THE UNIT.

Changing the speed of a centrifugal pump changes

the capacity, total head and brake horsepower. The
capacity will vary in a direct ratio with the speed,
whereas the total head will vary as the ratio of the
speed squared. The brake horsepower will vary as
the ratio of the speed cubed, except in cases where
the speed change also reduces the efficiency of the
pump.

WARNING
WHEN PUMP IS EQUIPPED WITH MANIFOLDED
VENT AND DRAIN LINES, EACH LINE MUST BE
EQUIPPED WITH AN INDIVIDUAL VALVE TO
PREVENT ANY LIQUID FROM A HIGH PRESSURE LINE FLOWING INTO A LOW PRESSURE
LINE. THESE VALVES MUST BE KEPT IN THE
CLOSED POSITION DURING PUMP OPERATION.

NET POSITIVE SUCTION HEAD (NPSH)

Any liquid, hot or cold, must be pushed into the impeller of the pump by some absolute pressure, such
as the atmosphere or the pressure of the vessel
from which the pump takes its suction.

3- 1

Operation
A. If pump is equipped with a mechanical seal, ensure it is properly assembled and tightened (refer to
STUFFING BOX section).

WARNING
OBSERVE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN VENTING
AND/OR DRAINING HAZARDOUS LIQUIDS.
WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING IN THE PRESENCE OF CAUSTIC, CORROSIVE, VOLATILE,
FLAMMABLE, OR HOT LIQUIDS.
DO NOT
BREATHE TOXIC VAPORS. DO NOT ALLOW
SPARKING, FLAMES, OR HOT SURFACES IN VICINITY OF THE EQUIPMENT.

CAUTION
MOST CARTRIDGE SEALS ARE EQUIPPED WITH
A SPACER BETWEEN THE GLAND PLATE AND

1. Close discharge valve if valve is not already

closed.

5. Check stuffing box.

2A. Prepare the driver for start-up in accordance

with the manufacturers instructions.
3- 2

Operation
2B. Refer to lube oil system instructions and drawings to prepare system for start-up.

CAUTION
IF PUMP STOPS ABRUPTLY WHEN DRIVER IS
SHUT DOWN, INVESTIGATE FOR PUMP BINDING. TAKE NECESSARY REMEDIAL ACTION BEFORE RESUMING OPERATION.

3. Warm-Up Pump.
Avoid severe thermal shocks to the pump as a result
of sudden liquid temperature changes. The pump
must be preheated prior to start-up. Unless otherwise specified, the external temperature of the caso
o
ing must be within 100 F.(55.6 C.) of the temperature of the liquid to be pumped at time of start-up.
Due to the heavy metal sections, the casing will lag
the liquid temperature during such changes, and
severe temperature stresses and subsequent misalignment of machined fits may result. Pre-heating
is accomplished by circulating a small amount of hot
fluid through the casing by utilizing vents, drains or
bypass from discharge. Preheat pump slowly at a
o
o
rate not to exceed 100 F.(55.6 C.) per hour.

10A. Starting the driver (motor driven).

Prepare the driver for start-up in accordance with the
manufacturers instructions.
Start the driver.
10B. Starting the driver (turbine driven).
Prepare the turbine for start-up in accordance with
the manufacturers instructions.
Start the turbine and bring it up to speed quickly.

4. Prime pump and ensure pump suction valve is

open.

11. As soon as pump is up to rated speed, slowly

open discharge valve.
This will avoid abrupt
changes in velocity and prevent surging in the suction line.

CAUTION
BEFORE STARTING OR WHILE OPERATING THE
PUMP, THE CASING AND SUCTION LINE MUST
BE COMPLETELY FILLED WITH THE LIQUID BEING PUMPED. THE ROTATING PARTS DE-PEND
ON THIS LIQUID FOR LUBRICATION, AND THE
PUMP MAY SEIZE IF OPERATED WITHOUT LIQUID.

overspeed trip.

B. If pump is equipped with stuffing box packing,

leakage should be 1 oz. 2 oz./min.(30 ml 59
ml/min.)

2. The pump should be shut down rapidly to protect

the internal wearing parts which are lubricated by the
liquid being pumped.

4. Check for unusual noises.

5. Check oil pressure of bearing inlets and sight flow
indicator.

Lubrication is reduced when a pump is stopped

slowly, and seizure could result.

6. Check oil rings to ensure they are rotating (eye

protection required optional construction).

NOTE
If pump stops abruptly when driver is shut down, investigate for pump binding. Take necessary remedial action before restarting pump.

7. Check for adequate flow of cooling liquids.

8. After unit has been operated a sufficient length of

Lubrication
A check valve is mounted in the auxiliary oil pump
discharge line to prevent oil from returning to the oil
reservoir when the main oil pump is running and the
auxiliary oil pump is shut down.

LUBRICATION SYSTEM

WARNING
OPERATION OF THE UNIT WITHOUT PROPER
LUBRICATION CAN RESULT IN OVERHEATING
OF THE BEARINGS, BEARING FAILURES, PUMP
SEIZURES AND ACTUAL BREAKUP OF THE
EQUIPMENT, EXPOSING OPERATING PERSONNEL TO INJURY. REFER TO LUBE OIL PIPING/CONSOLE DRAWING.

Normal lube oil pressure is 15 20 psig (103 137

Kpa).

LUBRICATING OIL
Remember that oil requires frequent replenishment
at normal operating temperatures and very frequent
replenishment at elevated operating temperatures.
Oil is always subject to gradual deterioration from
use and contamination from dirt and moisture. This
deterioration and contamination will, in time, be
harmful to the bearings and can cause premature
wear. For these reasons, oil should be checked for
contamination and deterioration regularly.

MS

DA SLV/KTB

Oil is supplied to the pressure lubrication system by

one of the two oil pumps. The main oil pump is
mounted on a support head (6-172) which is bolted
to the thrust end bearing body and cap (6-021/023)
and is driven by the main pump shaft via a Lovejoy
coupling (6-185).
A motor-driven auxiliary oil pump is furnished to
supply oil to the pressure lubrication system during
starting and stopping periods. At time of start-up,
the auxiliary oil pump must be started manually.
When the main oil pump supplies the required oil
pressure, the auxiliary oil pump will automatically
stop by action of an auxiliary oil pump pressure
switch mounted in the lubrication system. Can also
be manually shutdown. The auxiliary oil pump will
remain in the standby state, until such time as the
lubricating oil pressure falls to a pre-determined
value, at which time the auxiliary oil pump pressure
switch will automatically start the auxiliary oil pump.

The frequency of oil change depends on the operating conditions and the quality of the lubricant. Oil
should be checked for deterioration and contamination weekly during periods of operation. Mineral oils
oxidize and should be replaced at no more than
three month intervals when operated continuously in
o
o
o
o
the 160 -180 F.(71 -82 C.) range. Longer intervals
between replacement may be possible at lower operating temperatures, but three month intervals are
recommended to protect against normal oxidation,
contamination and deterioration.

During operation, oil is taken from the oil reservoir by

the oil pump and is directed to the oil cooler. From
the oil cooler, the oil is directed through the oil filter
and is then supplied to the pump/driver bearings. A
back-pressure relief valve mounted in the lubrication
system maintains the required system oil pressure of
15 psi. The system is additionally equipped with a
low pressure, pressure switch which trips the unit
when the oil pressure in the lubrication system decreases to a pre-determined value or prevents the
starting of the unit until adequate oil pressure is established. A gravity assisted, sloped oil-return line
conducts the oil from the pump/driver bearings back
to the system reservoir.

Straight mineral oil without additives are generally

preferred for bearing lubrication. It should preferably
be of the turbine type and not contain free acid, chlorine, sulfur or more than a trace of free alkali. Quality
mineral oils with a minimum Viscosity Index (VI) of
95 are recommended. Lubricating oils are identified
by an ISO Viscosity Grade (VG) Number. The VG
o
o
Number is the viscosity of the oil at 40 C.(104 F.) in
centistokes. In the majority of instances, a turbine
oil with a VG Number of 32 (nominally equivalent to
SAE 10) will meet bearing lubrication requirements
(see OIL TEMPERATURE).

MECHANICAL SEAL

MECHANICAL SEAL REMOVAL

Your pump is typically shipped with the mechanical

seal already installed. All mechanical seals are of
the cartridge type design. The mechanical seal is
designed to suit each application. This creates the
correct seal loading face when seal gland is bolted
in place.

To remove mechanical seal from pump:

1. Install setting plates/eccentric washer in place.*
2. Loosen drive collar.
3. Remove gland bolting.

Cartridge type mechanical seals are preset at the

seal manufacturers facility and require no field settings. The seal installation should be checked before startup.

4. Slide sleeve with mechanical seal from shaft.

Seal may be disassembled/inspected/reassembled
per seal manufacturers drawing and instructions in
Appendix of this manual.

Refer to the mechanical seal manufacturers drawing

and instructions found in the Appendix of this manual for detailed information.

it to expand.
D. With periphery, shroud and hub at temperature,
remove impeller.

A. Push throttling sleeve (1-440) inboard (toward

impeller).

7- 5

Maintenance
2. Wire-brush the pump parts thoroughly. Clean off
all scale, carbon, etc. Examine parts for wearing,
corrosion and erosion.

E. If the impeller does not move freely off the shaft,

additional heat may be necessary. THIS HEATING SHOULD BE STARTED AT THE PERIPHERY OF THE IMPELLER, NOT THE HUB. (Additional heating of the hub area at this time will
tighten the impeller on the shaft, not loosen it.)
If the impeller still fails to come free, the impeller
and shaft should be allowed to cool completely
and the heating process repeated starting at
Step A.

3. Check shaft sleeve, throttling sleeve and center

sleeve for wear. Replace if required.
4. The casing rings/impeller rings are renewable
and should be replaced when badly grooved, and/or
when pump performance does not meet the system
requirements. Whenever it becomes necessary to
replace either wearing ring, both rings involved (casing ring and impeller ring) must be ordered and replaced as they are furnished standard size only [impeller rings approximately .08 in.(2.03 mm) oversize]. Be sure to re-establish the original running
clearance between the two wearing rings involved.
A. If new casing rings are used, make sure that they
seat in both the upper and lower half casing and that
the anti-rotation device is properly located in its respective lower half casing fit. The use of a scraper
on the ring to casing fit will help to fit the ring to the
casing.
B. Impeller ring removal and installation.
Remove impeller rings by removing the setscrews
(1-259) and machine off, or, grind two slots diametrically opposite across the face of the ring so it can be
split apart. Exercise caution if rings are removed by
grinding so as not to damage impeller hubs. See
sketch.

from the previously used holes in the impeller. See
sketch below.

Grinding Impeller For Dynamic-Balance

5. If pump is equipped with a cooled stuffing box
extension (4-264) and has a packed box arrangement, the stuffing box extension will have a stuffing
box bushing (4-088) tack-welded in the bottom of the
box. If this bushing has to be removed for any reason, the tack welds will have to be ground off and
the bushing pressed from the extension. Do not reuse stuffing box bushing if removed from extension
for any reason.

Typical Screw Installation For Impeller Rings

NOTE
Impeller rings must be machined to re-establish
original diameter and running clearance, which can
be found on Assembly Drawing.

6. Clean the casing of all foreign material.

7. Renew all gasket and packing.

C. Dynamic-balance impeller.

PARTING FLANGE GASKET

DA SLV/KTB

Whenever an impeller is tampered with, (i.e. new

impeller, wear rings installed etc.) the impeller must
be dynamic-balanced before being reassembled to
shaft.

Remove all traces of old gasket (2-170) material.

When using any tool to remove gasket material, do
not gouge or mar machined surfaces. Use only
Flowserve recommended replacement materials.

To balance, remove metal from the front or back

shroud of the impeller at the point of unbalance. The
metal must be removed in such a manner that it will
not disfigure the contour of the surface from which it
is removed.

1. Using proper recommended 1/64 in.(.397 mm)
