CNV Vertical Pumps
The vertical shaft pumps have very important advantages in the construction of stations
for pumkeyg clean or charged liquids, particularly in the industrial sector. These pumps
whose chambers are completely immersed in the liquid, require no priming.
The reduced space requirement facilitate installation when there is limited space.
The rotation of the vertical shaft eliminates the influence of its weight on the support and
ensures a long life for guide rings. These rings, lubricated by the liquid, are made in
special material offering a very low friction coefficient.
When the liquid to be pumped is charged with abrasive materials, the transmission shaft
is not in contact with these substances, since it can be clad with an extra tube in which
clarified water is circulated at a pressure slightly greater than that of the pumped liquid in
order to lubricate the rings with the clarified water.
The installation of vertical pumps is very simple. The pump is descended into the basin
where it is ready to work.
11. Description
The vertical shaft pump essentially consists of:
• the lifting head,
• the shaft line with one or several bearings,
• the pump casing with one or several stages.
11.5. Drive
The pump is driven by standardised electric motor, vertical with semi-
elastic flange and coupling.
11.6. Sealing device flush with the shaft passage, depending on the case
• lip seal (standard configuration),
• packing (very good configuration),
• single or double mechanical seals for a perfect seal (specific
configuration).
14. Materials
• Stainless steels all grades,
• Carbon steels,
• Grey pig-iron,
• Ductile graphite iron,
• Hastelloy,
• Monel,
• Special materials.

INSTALLATION
The installation phase of the motor-pump unit on the site of operation is fundamental.
The correct operation of the pump in use depends on certain factors which it is
necessary to note when installing.
Note: if the site allows it, you are advised to install the pump in a "sheltered" place, to
avoid exposure to bad weather.
Check the level of the ground. The seating of the motor-pump/frame unit
must be as flat and horizontal as possible. Carry out civil engineering if
necessary.
The frame of the motor-pump unit must be rigidly fixed to the
ground or on the tank.
No check on the alignment of the motor with the pump is necessary, because
the pump-motor connection is preadjusted.
The junction of the pump with the pipework must occur without force. The best
connection is that where the screws pass freely in the holes of the pipes.
The pipe gaskets must in no case extend into the interior of the opening.
It is best to match the bolts to the diameters of the holes of the pipes.

COMMISSIONING / DECOMMISSIONING
15. COMMISSIONING
Before the first commissioning, or after a prolonged stop, we carry out the
following checks:
c Direction of rotation
The direction of rotation of the motor must correspond with the
direction indicated by the arrow on the pump. It is possible to briefly
start the motor to check the direction of rotation, with the pump
uncoupled.
d Shaft
Make sure that the pump shaft rotates freely by hand
e Levels
It is essential to check (if possible) the level of the fluid to be
pumped in the suction tank.
f Motor
If the motor has remained some time without working (~ 6 months),
turn the shaft by hand,
g Reverse rotation
Don't start the pump when the shaft is in reverse rotation.If
necessary close the suction valve
h Packing/Mechanical seal
The packing or mechanical seal (non-standard model) prevents
fluid from going up to the upper part of the base plate. The packing
must only be tightened slightly by hand before commissioning.

i Prolonged stop
Check the state and quantity of grease in the bearing,
If the stop exceeds one year, change the gasket on the delivery
flange.
The isolation valves on the suction and delivery side are fully open.
h Temporary filter
After some hours operation, check the cleanliness of the filter when
rinsing, failing which there could be clogging likely to cause
cavitation and deterioration of the shaft seal. (This filter will be
removed for definitive operation).

15.3. In operation
c Starting
The number of starts per hour is limited to 5.
A higher number causes excessive overheating and damage to the
motor.
Wait 2 to 3 hours before beginning a new series of
successive starts.
The motor starts and stops by being switched on or off, without any
special precaution.
Check the level in the suction tank as well as the lifting height.
d Minimum flow
The minimum flow is limited to 10% of the flow at the best
efficiency. A lower flow causes overheating of the pumped liquid at
least.
It is advisable to watch the temperature of the upper bearing.
Maximum temperature of the bearing near the oiler: 90 °C
d Motor
Stop the motor, by turning off the electricity supply.
