INTRODUCTION
This manual contains instructions for installation,
operation and maintenance of your Flowserve Cen-
trifugal 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.
The instructions in this manual are intended for the
guidance of personnel with a general training in op-
eration 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 Ar-
rangement 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.
NOTE
The installation/commissioning of this equipment
must be conducted in accordance with API Recom-
mended Practices 686/PIP REIE 686 First Edition.
Refer to API 610 Eighth Edition Appendix `L for
baseplate grouting requirements.
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) 682-
8000.
SAFETY
It is assumed that your safety department has estab-
lished 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 man-
ual, 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-tem-
perature liquids, toxic liquids and gases and flamma-
ble liquids and gases. Proper installation and care
of protective guards, shutdown devices and over-
pressure protection equipment should also be con-
sidered a mandatory part of any safety program.
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.
DESCRIPTION
The DA pump is a multistage, single suction op-
posed impeller, horizontally split volute pump.
The suction and discharge nozzles are cast integral
with the lower half casing.
Rotating parts are accessible by removing the up-
per-half casing which can be removed without
breaking suction and discharge piping.
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.

Introduction
1-3
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.
IMPELLERS
The impellers are single suction, enclosed type, one-
piece construction and are dynamically balanced.
They are fitted with renewable impeller rings (front
and back) which are held in place by headless set-
screws.
The impellers are keyed, have a shrink fit to the
pump shaft and are held in axial position by a split
ring.
CASING RINGS
Casing rings are positioned over the impeller front
rings. These rings are tubular and renewable.
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.
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).
CENTER BUSHING
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 posi-
tion by the raised annular ring of the bushing en-
gaging the annular groove in the casing.
The center bushing, in conjunction with center
sleeve, divides the casing at the center (back-to-
back) impellers.
THROTTLING SLEEVE
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 po-
sition by a split ring.
THROTTLING BUSHING
Renewable type throttling bushing is used. It is held
in position by the annular ring of the bushing en-
gaging the annular groove in the casing.
The throttling bushing, in conjunction with the throt-
tling 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.
SHAFT
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.
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 tu-
bular type, keyed to the shaft, and held in position by
the retaining rings.
BEARINGS
The plain and thrust ball bearings are lubricated by
means of oil rings, which run on journal sleeves and
in the oil reservoir of the bearing housings.
The plain ball bearing is a single-row deep-groove
type, free to adjust axially in the bearing housing.
The thrust ball bearing is of the double-row
(mounted back-to-back) angular-contact type, and is
of ample size to carry the thrust loads encountered
in service. The pump bearings are renewable.

STUFFING BOXES
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.
RECEIPT INSPECTION
NOTE
The following information regarding receiving is only
offered as a general guideline to the customer.
Flowserve Corp. requires that all receiving be con-
ducted in accordance with specifications set forth in
Chapter 3 -`Jobsite Receiving and Protection from
API Recommended Practices 686/PIP REIE 686,
First Edition.
The pump and its associated equipment were care-
fully inspected at the factory prior to shipment to en-
sure 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.
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.
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.
If any damage is discovered and/or parts are miss-
ing, notify the carrier or nearest Flowserve office
immediately.
UNPACKING
The pump should arrive already mounted on the
bedplate and it is therefore suggested that the un-
packing of the equipment should proceed per in-
struction as outlined in this manual.
In general, care is to be taken when removing crat-
ing, coverings, and strapping in order not to damage
any auxiliary equipment and/or the paint finish.
CARE DURING STORAGE
(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.
The nozzle covers provided with the unit should be
left in place during storage.
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 petroleum solvents.
External machined surfaces are protected with dura-
ble drying-type rust preventive (MIL-C-16173 Grade
1). This can be removed with kerosene or safety
solvent (Tower No. 392).
External non-machined surfaces are painted with
one coat of gray enamel followed by a coat of multi-
color speckle lacquer.
Exception: External non-machined surfaces of the
pump [if operating at a temperature above 200
o
F.
(94
o
C)] are painted with a high-temperature alumi-
num base paint.
Parts ordered separately are protected with a thin-
film polar-type rust preventive. This can be removed
with petroleum solvents.

GENERAL
During extended periods of storage prior to installa-
tion and from the time of installation until commercial
operation, precautions must be taken to protect the
pump from deterioration. The various parts of the
pump are protected prior to shipment by applying
varying grades of preservatives and paint. However,
during shipment and handling, the preservatives are
subjected to conditions that can cause their removal.
Also, during extended periods of time, the pre-
servative may deteriorate. The following procedures
should be followed to prevent deterioration of the
pump during the extended storage period. These
procedures may also be supplemented by the expe-
rience of the person(s) performing the tasks.
It should be noted, that unless otherwise agreed to,
full responsibility and costs associated with the stor-
age and inspection of this equipment rests with the
customer.
Introduction
1-6
CAUTION
IF PUMP IS EQUIPPED WITH A MECHANICAL
SEAL AND IS STORED OR HAS NOT BEEN RUN
FOR 1 YEAR OR MORE, THE MECHANICAL
SEAL MUST BE REMOVED BEFORE START-UP
AND FACES RE-LAPPED TO GUARD AGAINST
THE POSSIBILITY OF SEAL LEAKAGE. WHEN
RE-INSTALLING THE SEAL, NEW "O RINGS
AND GASKETS MUST BE USED.
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 im-
mediately.
Inspect the preservative coating on the various
parts. If necessary, renew the preservative in areas
where it has been rubbed off or scraped.
Inspect all painted surfaces. If necessary, touch up
the areas where paint has been chipped or scraped.
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 ar-
eas 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
condition. Install or replace covers and fasten se-
curely.
STORAGE AREA
When selecting a storage area, the following should
be taken into consideration:
1. The deterioration of the equipment will be propor-
tionate to the class/type of storage provided.
2. The expenses involved in restoring the equip-
ment at time of operation will be proportionate to the
class/type of storage provided.
STORAGE PREFERRED (DRY)
GENERAL
If at all possible, the pump and its components
should be stored indoors where they will be pro-
tected 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 cover-
ings of heavy-gauge plastic sheets, canvas, water-
proof burlap or other suitable coverings.
All equipment must be placed upon skids or blocks
to prevent contact with the ground and surface con-
taminants. Equipment must be adequately sup-
ported to prevent distortion and bending.
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 distri-
buted. Single-stage and volute-type pump rotors not
stored in pump must be supported close to im- pel-
ler(s) to eliminate sag that may cause rotor to take a
permanent set.
INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
1. Customer Inspection And Maintenance
The stored equipment is to be placed on a periodic
inspection schedule by the customer.

Introduction
1-7
NOTE
The responsibility for setting up an inspection and
maintenance schedule rests with the customer and
will be dependent upon the class/type of storage
provided. It would be expected that initially in- spec-
tion would occur weekly, then depending upon the
inspection reports being favorable or unfavorable,
inspection would continue weekly, monthly, or quar-
terly, as may be determined. Inspection reports
must be kept on file.
Each inspection should consist of a general surface
inspection.
(a) Pump supports are firmly in place.
(b) Pump covers over openings are firmly in place.
(c) Pump covering, plastic or tarps, is firmly in place.
Any holes or tears must be repaired to prevent en-
trance of dirt or water.
(d) Pump rotors stored in pump should be rotated 1-
1/4 revolutions at least once a week to prevent rotor
from taking a permanent set.
CAUTION
IF PUMP IS EQUIPPED WITH SLEEVE BEAR-
INGS THE OIL RING INSPECTION PLUG ON TOP
OF THE BEARING HOUSING IS TO BE REMOVED
AND A SMALL AMOUNT OF OIL POURED OVER
THE JOURNALS BEFORE TURNING.
Single-stage and volute-type pump rotors stored
separately should be rotated 1-1/4 revolutions
weekly.
(e) Pump covers are periodically removed from
openings and interior accessible areas inspected. If
surface rusting has occurred, clean and repaint or
recoat with preservative.
(f) If rusting occurs on exterior surfaces, clean and
repaint or recoat with preservative.
(g) Loosen casing drain plugs to allow seepage of
any accumulated moisture.
(h) Periodically remove bearing covers and inspect
for accumulation of moisture, rust and foreign mate-
rial. As required, clean bearings and bearing hous-
ing and represerve. Install bearing cover and secure
to assure maximum protection. Bearings removed
for storage should be coated with pre- servative,
wrapped in oil/wax paper, and stored in a warm dry
area.
(i) Check individually wrapped parts for signs of de-
terioration. If necessary, renew preservative and
wrapping.
2. Six Months Prior To Installation
Six months prior to the scheduled installation date, a
Flowserve Corporation representative is to be em-
ployed to conduct an inspection. All costs involved
during inspection, dismantling, restoration, replace-
ment of parts, and reassembly will be the responsi-
bility of the customer. All necessary labor, tools, and
cranes will be supplied by the customer. This in-
spection will include (not necessarily in its entirety)
but not be limited to, the following:
(a) An inspection of all periodic inspection records
as kept on file by the customer, and all inspection
reports that have been compiled during the storage
period.
(b) An inspection of the storage area to determine
the as stored condition of the equipment prior to
any protection covers being removed.
(c) An inspection of the equipment with protection
covers and flange covers removed.
(d) Depending upon the length of time the equip-
ment was stored, the class/type of storage provided,
(i.e.: indoor, heated, unheated, ground floor, con-
crete floor, out-of-doors, under roof, no roof, water-
proof covering, on concrete, on ground) and as a
result of the inspection of a, b and c above, the
Flowserve representative may require a partial or
complete dismantling of the equipment.
(e) Dismantling may necessitate restoration of

Upon completion of the inspection, the Flowserve
Corporation representative shall submit a report to
the customer, and to the Manager of Customer
Service, stating in detail the results of the inspection.
3. One Month Prior To Installation
One month prior to installation of the equipment, a
Flowserve Corporation representative is to be em-
ployed to conduct a final inspection. This final in-
spection will be made to assure that the require-
ments of the six-month inspection report were satis-
factorily completed and that the equipment is ready
for installation.
Upon completion of this inspection, the Flowserve
Corporation representative shall submit a final report
to the customer, and to the Manager of Customer
Service, advising the results of the final inspection.
STORAGE NON-PREFERRED (WET)
It is not recommended that the rotor be subjected to
extended periods of submergence or wetting prior to
start-up. However, it is recognized that in some
cases, a long period of time may lapse from instal-
lation until commercial operation.
If the pump must be stored after being installed and
wetted, the following inspection and maintenance
procedures should be performed.
1. Isolate pump with valving tag (seal) all valves.
2. Preserve the pump internals.
(a) Corrosive Pumpage.
Fill pump with a 1% solution of Immunol 1809 and
water, (or owner-approved preservative). Immunol
is a water-phase corrosion inhibitor for ferrous and
mixed-metal couples and is composed of 5% sodium
nitrate with polyglycols, copper corrosion inhibitor,
and other organic materials. The pump should be
filled to highest level possible, affording the greatest
protection possible to all internal parts of the pump.
This solution, when drained, will result in a thin resi-
dual oil film (less than .0005 in.(.0127 mm) on all
internals after the water has evaporated. This resi-
due provides added corrosion protection until pump
is again filled with liquid or put into service.
(b) Non-Corrosive Pumpage.
Fill pump with pumpage to the highest level possible.
Periodically open drain connection to drain off any
moisture that may have accumulated. Refill to high-
est level possible. Drain and inspect pump prior to
start-up.
3. Rotate pump rotor 1-1/4 revolutions at least once
a week. Make sure bearings have adequate lubrica-
tion before turning rotor.
4. Periodically remove bearing covers and inspect
for accumulation of moisture, rust and foreign mate-
rial. As required, clean bearings and bearing hous-
ing and represerve. Install bearing cover and secure
to assure maximum protection.
PAINTING AND PRESERVATION
Paints and preservatives used are either Flowserve
Corporation standard or special as required by the
contract specification. Refer to RUST PREVEN-
TIVE for the description of paints and preservatives
used on this order or contact the branch office
through which the order was placed.
START-UP
Prior to and during start-up, any requirement for the
services of a Flowserve Corporation representative
will revert to the original contract agreement for the
equipment purchased.
DRIVERS
Generally storage must be indoors and dry. See the
specific manufacturers storage requirements.

LOCATION
Install the unit close to the source of the liquid to be
pumped.
When selecting the location, be sure to allow ade-
quate space for operation as well as for mainte-
ance operations involving dismantling and inspection
of parts.
Head room is an important consideration, as an
overhead lift of some type is required.
FOUNDATION
NOTE
The following information regarding foundation is
only offered as a general guideline to the customer.
Flowserve Corp. requires that all foundations be de-
signed/installed in accordance with specifications set
forth in Chapter 4 - `Foundations from API Recom-
mended Practices 686/PIP REIE 686, First Edition.
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.
The foundation should be sufficiently rigid and sub-
stantial to prevent any pump vibration and to perma-
nently support the bedplate at all points.
The most satisfactory foundations are made of rein-
forced concrete. These should be poured well in
advance of the installation to allow proper time for
drying and curing.
The General Arrangement Drawing will furnish an-
chor bolt locations, size of bolts, etc.
Template For Hanging Foundation Bolts
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.
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.
A rough finish top surface is best when applying
grout.

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 lev-
eling 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.
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.
NOTE
Coupling bolting and spacer piece (when used) must
be removed from between pump/driver half couplings
before lifting baseplate with pump element.
NOTE
When lifting bedplate with pumping element, sling
bedplate from all lifting eyes provided. Failure to do
this may result in permanent deformation of bed-
plate.
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.
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 founda-
tion 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.
As a final bedplate alignment check on spacer type
couplings, install a mounting bracket for dial indi-
cator 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.)
Rotate the driver half coupling (in direction of pump
rotation) 90
o
. Record this reading.
Repeat this procedure until readings have been
taken at four 90
o
positions.
PRELIMINARY ALIGNMENT

GROUTING
NOTE
The following information regarding grouting is only
offered as a general guideline to the customer.
Flowserve Corp. requires that all grouting be in-
stalled in accordance with specifications set forth in
Chapter 5 - `Mounting Plate Grouting from API Rec-
ommended Practices 686/PIP REIE 686, First Edi-
tion.
It is recommended that the customer consult a com-
petent specialist skilled in the field of grouting, to
insure the proper installation of all grouting.
Build a dam around the foundation. It is a matter of
personal preference whether the leveling wedges un-
der the bedplate should be removed after grouting. If
you do want to remove the wedges, carefully mark
their locations before pouring grout.
Build Dam Around Foundation Before Pouring Grout
Use a quality, high strength, non-shrink epoxy grout
- mix and install per manufacturers instructions.
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 distri-
bution of the grout. Check to see that the grout flows
under the edges of the bedplate evenly.
NOTE
Do not vibrate bedplate when grouting; make sure bed-
plate is vented properly and all areas indicated on Gen-
eral Arrangement drawing are thoroughly puddled to
prevent any resonant problems.
When the grout is thoroughly hardened, remove the
dam and wedges, if desired, filling in the holes they
leave with grout.
SHAFT/COUPLING ALIGNMENT
NOTE
The following information regarding shaft alignment
is only offered as a general guideline to the custom-
er. Flowserve Corp. requires that all shaft alignment
be performed in accordance with specifications set
forth in Chapter 7 - `Shaft Alignment from API Rec-
ommended Practices 686/PIP REIE 686, First Edi-
tion.
CAUTION
SHAFT ALIGNMENT MUST BE CORRECT FOR
SUCCESSFUL OPERATION. RAPID WEAR, NOISE,
VIBRATION AND ACTUAL DAMAGE TO THE
EQUIPMENT MAY BE CAUSED BY SHAFT MIS-
ALIGNMENT. THE SHAFTS MUST BE ALIGNED
WITHIN THE LIMITS GIVEN WITHIN THIS SECTION.
NOTE
Adjustments to correct the alignment in one direction
may alter the alignment in another direction. Always
check in all directions after making any adjustments.

Coupled equipment must be aligned to minimize un-
necessary stresses in shafts, bearings and coupling.
Flexible couplings will not compensate for appreci-
able misalignment. Foundation settling, thermal ex-
pansion or nozzle loads resulting in baseplate/foun-
dation deflection and vibration during operation may
require the full coupling misalignment capability.
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 mis-
alignment can occur in horizontal and vertical planes
and are present in most applications.
A. Angular Misalignment
In angular misalignment, the centerline of the shafts
intersect, but are not on the same axis.
B. Offset Misalignment
In offset misalignment, the shaft centerline are par-
allel but do not intersect.
Offset Misalignment
Combination Offset
And
Angular Misalignment
ALIGNMENT
A. Measure Gap
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 cou-
pling hubs, must be in accordance with the certified
General Arrangement Drawing and must be mea-
sured 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.
Move driver to insure proper gap distance.
NOTE
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 dow-
elled until after final alignment.
B. Measure Angular Misalignment
Refer to ALIGNMENT DATA SHEET and exam-
ples.

CAUTION
PUMP SHAFT SHOULD NOT BE ROTATED MORE
THAN NECESSARY WHEN ALIGNING SHAFTS.
DAMAGE COULD OCCUR TO INTERNAL WEARING
PARTS WHICH ARE LUBRICATED BY THE PUMP
LIQUID.
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 ro-
tating 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 num-
ber.
1. Mark both coupling hubs at 3,6,9 and 12 oclock
positions so they can be rotated together and at 90
o
intervals.
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, Part 1 in
the 0
o
Column.
NOTE
Right side and left side are determined when viewing
the driver coupling from the pump.
3. Rotate both shafts 90
o
in the direction of pump
rotation. Measure gap dimensions at the four loca-
tions as in Step 2. Record on ALIGNMENT DATA
SHEET-Sheet 1, Part 1 in the 90

vide 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
Offset misalignment is measured using a dial indi-
cator 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).
4. Repeat Step 3 until readings have been taken at
the four 90
o
positions (top center, right, bottom and
left).
5. Rotate both shafts to the starting position (12
oclock markings at top center) and verify indicator
returns to zero.

NOTE
The sum of the top and bottom readings should al-
ways equal the sum of the left and right readings. If
the sums are not equal, check for indicator bracket
deflection, hub surface irregularity or loose radial
bearings.
6. Using the formula on ALIGNMENT DATA
SHEET-Sheet 1, Part 2, subtract the top from the
bottom indicator reading, divide by 2. This will yield
the vertical misalignment.
7. Using the formula on ALIGNMENT DATA
SHEET-Sheet 1, Part 2, subtract the left from the
right indicator reading, divide by 2. This is the hori-
zontal misalignment.
8. Circle the proper high or low and left or right posi-
tion of the driver hub, using the rules given on the
Data Sheet.
NOTE
The outside diameters of pump and driver coupling
hubs must be aligned within .003 in.(.0762 mm) TIR.

VERTICAL MOVE
Before moving the equipment vertically, it is im-
portant that the vertical thermal expansion be taken
into consideration. The preceding vertical move cal-
culations are based on pump and driver shafts being
set on the same plane. Refer to General Arrange-
ment Notes and/ or driver instructions for recom-
mended cold vertical setting (if thermal expansion is
a factor).
The shims between the equipment feet and mount-
ing surface should be clean and dry. This is espe-
cially 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 equip-
ment hold-down bolting to required values.
NOTE
It is recommended, the completed ALIGNMENT
DATA SHEET be retained as part of your perma-
nent maintenance file.
CHECK COUPLING ALIGNMENT
The angular and offset coupling alignment must be
rechecked.
1. Coupling faces are to be parallel within .001
in.(.0254 mm) TIR.
2. Coupling outside diameters are to be aligned
within .003 in.(.0762 mm) TIR.
3A. Motor-Driven: Bump the motor and check
motor rotation (see Troubleshooting).
3B. Turbine-Driven: Check turbine rotation. (If
wrong, consult turbine manufacturer.)
ASSEMBLE AND LUBRICATE COUPLING

factur- ers instructions included in Appendix of this
manual.
2. Install coupling guard.

to expand with temperature away from coupling end
of pump. The units that come under this classifica-
tion must have the pump supports or feet dowelled
to the baseplate at the coupling end. This maintains
the coupling gap at the desired amount.
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).

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.
IMPORTANT
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 in-
stallation.
C. Pump Driver
Refer to driver outline drawing and/or driver
instructions for dowelling information.
HOT ALIGNMENT CHECK
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.

WARNING
BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY INSPECTION OR

PIPING
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.
The design of piping, and related systems, is not the
responsibility of Flowserve Corp. It is therefore rec-
ommended that the customer consult a competent
specialist skilled in the field of piping, to insure
proper design/installation of all piping.
SUCTION AND DISCHARGE PIPING
These units are furnished for a particular service
condition. Changes in the hydraulic system may
affect performance adversely. This is especially true
if the changes reduce the pressure at the suction
flange. In case of doubt, contact the nearest Flows-
erve Office.
Suction and discharge piping should be of ample
size, be installed in direct runs, and have a minimum
of bends.
NOTE
Provision must be made to support piping external to
the pump to prevent excessive nozzle loads and
maintain pump-driver alignment.
Install a check valve and a gate valve in the dis-
charge 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.
Keep the suction pipe short and direct. Use a suc-
tion pipe at least one size larger than the pump suc-
tion nozzle. Keep the suction pipe free of all air
pockets.
IMPORTANT
A spool piece should be installed in suction line so
that the suction screen may be installed and re-
moved.
BY-PASS LINE
CAUTION
OPERATION AT LOW FLOWS RESULTS IN
PUMP HORSEPOWER HEATING THE LIQUID. A
BYPASS MAY BE REQUIRED TO PREVENT VA-
PORIZATION AND SUBSEQUENT PUMP DAM-
AGE. MECHANICAL DAMAGE MAY RESULT
FROM CONTINUOUS OPERATION AT FLOWS
LESS THAN 25% OF DESIGN OPERATING POINT

plate).
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 PRES-
SURE LINE FLOWING INTO A LOW PRESSURE
LINE. THESE VALVES MUST BE KEPT IN THE
CLOSED POSITION DURING PUMP OPERATION.

SUCTION STRAINER
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 prema-
ture pump failure.
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). Flows-
erve 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 im-
practical to install a suction strainer to remove par-
ticulate of this size. Such particles will normally pass
through the pump without causing damage, provi d-
ing the concentrations are minor.
The possibility exists that, on shutdown of the pump,
such particles can become trapped in the close run-
ning 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 MINI-MIZED 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 re-
quired 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.
CAUTION
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.
Do not install the strainer directly on the pump suc-
tion nozzle. For a cone-type strainer, the down-
stream 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 con-
sists of conical-shaped steel plate with 1/8 perfora-
tions. The open area of the strainer should be a
minimum of three times the area of the pump suc-
tion.

At all times when using suction strainers, it is critical
that the pressure drop across the strainer be con-
stantly 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 allow-
able 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 be-
tween 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 suc-
tion need to be supplied by the plant engineer or
system designer prior to operating the pump. Typi-
cal alarm settings to protect the pump from damag-
ing 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.
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 desir-
able, and in open systems, 20 mesh screening is
typically used for permanent strainers. At all times,
when using screens and suction strainers, it is criti-
cal that pressure drop across the screen and/or
strainer be constantly monitored to ensure that the
pump suction pressure does not fall below that re-
quired to prevent cavitation.
When dirt and scale have been removed from the
system, as indicated by no further change in pres-
sure drop across the strainer with time, the start-up
strainer may be removed or the screen may be re-
placed with one having larger openings. If a perma-
nent strainer will be used during normal operation,
the pressure differential needs to be monitored on a
continuous basis.
If a permanent strainer is not used, the start-up
strainer needs to be temporarily reinstalled when-
ever 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 AVAILA-
BLE 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 AUTO-
MATIC 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 AL-
LOWABLE PRESSURE DROP ACROSS THE
STRAINER FOR SAFE PUMP OPERATION FROM
THE PLANT ENGINEER OR SYSTEM DESIGNER
PRIOR TO OPERATION OF THE PUMP.
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 suc-
tion and discharge piping.
GIB BLOCK INSTALLATION
Gib blocks are installed to control the direction of
thermal growth while maintaining pump-motor cou-

INSPECTION OF OIL RINGS BEFORE
START-UP
CAUTION
A PROBLEM CAN ARISE WHEN PUMPS ARE
TRANSPORTED BY VEHICLE OR WHEN BEING
LIFTED BY A CRANE. JARRING OR UNEVEN
LIFTING OF PUMPS CAN CAUSE THE OIL RINGS
TO MOVE OUT OF POSITION. IF THE OIL RINGS
ARE OUT OF POSITION AT START UP, THE
BEARINGS WILL NOT GET LUBRICATION AND
EVENTUALLY WILL FAIL.
BEFORE START UP TAKES PLACE, REMOVE
THE 1/2 INCH NPT PLUGS ON THE TOP OF THE
HOUSING AND CONFIRM THAT THE OIL RINGS
ARE IN THEIR PROPER POSITION (SEE FIG-
URE).
COMMISSIONING OF EQUIPMENT
Commissioning of all equipment must be performed
in accordance with specifications set forth in Chapter

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 in-
creased. In case of doubt, contact the nearest
Flowserve Office.
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 af-
fected 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.
VISCOSITY
The pump is designed to deliver rated capacity at
rated head for a liquid with a particular viscosity.
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.
CHANGING PUMP SPEED
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.
NET POSITIVE SUCTION HEAD (NPSH)
Any liquid, hot or cold, must be pushed into the im-
peller of the pump by some absolute pressure, such
as the atmosphere or the pressure of the vessel
from which the pump takes its suction.
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.
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 suc-
tion. The second NPSH is that available in the sys-
tem, taking into account friction loss in suction pip-
ing, valves, fittings, etc. In all cases, the NPSH
Available (measured above vapor pressure) must
exceed the NPSH Required in order to push the liq-
uid into the pump.
OPERATING PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
DO NOT WIPE DOWN IN THE VICINITY OF RO-
TATING PARTS. IF UNUSUAL NOISE OR VI-
BRATIONS OCCUR, SECURE THE PUMP AS
SOON AS POSSIBLE.
WARNING
THE UNIT MUST NOT BE OPERATED UNLESS
COUPLING GUARD IS BOLTED IN PLACE.
FAILURE TO OBSERVE THIS COULD RESULT IN
INJURY TO OPERATING PERSONNEL.
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 PRES-
SURE LINE FLOWING INTO A LOW PRESSURE
LINE. THESE VALVES MUST BE KEPT IN THE
CLOSED POSITION DURING PUMP OPERATION.

OBSERVE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN VENTING
AND/OR DRAINING HAZARDOUS LIQUIDS.
WEAR PROTECTIVE CLOTHING IN THE PRES-
ENCE OF CAUSTIC, CORROSIVE, VOLATILE,
FLAMMABLE, OR HOT LIQUIDS. DO NOT
BREATHE TOXIC VAPORS. DO NOT ALLOW
SPARKING, FLAMES, OR HOT SURFACES IN VI-
CINITY OF THE EQUIPMENT.
CAUTION
TO MAINTAIN CLOSE RUNNING CLEARANCES
AND BEARING LUBRICATION, THE PUMP
SHOULD NOT BE OPERATED BELOW THE
SPEED OF 1800 RPMS.
1. Never operate the pump with suction valve
closed.
2. Never operate pump unless it is filled with liquid
and vented.
3. Never operate the pump unless a liquid source is
available.
PRE-OPERATIONAL CHECKS
At initial start-up and after the equipment has been
overhauled.
1. Ensure pump and piping are clean. Before put-
ting the pump into operation, it should be thoroughly
flushed to remove the rust preventive as well as any
foreign matter which may have accumulated during
installation.
Take all possible care not to contaminate your sys-
tem.
2. Clean and flush bearing housings. Fill reservoir
with oil to the proper level (see LUBRICATION).
CAUTION
CHECK THAT OIL RINGS ARE PROPERLY POSI-
TIONED AND NOT HUNG-UP.
3. Ensure rotor is aligned within casing (see MAIN-
TENANCE).
4. Turn rotor by hand or with strap to make sure it
turns freely.
5. Check stuffing box.
A. If pump is equipped with a mechanical seal, en-
sure it is properly assembled and tightened (refer to
SHAFT SEALING section).
CAUTION
MOST CARTRIDGE SEALS ARE EQUIPPED WITH
A SPACER BETWEEN THE GLAND PLATE AND
DRIVE COLLAR. THIS SPACER MUST BE RE-
MOVED BEFORE STARTING UNIT.
B. If pump is equipped with a packed box, insure
box is properly packed (refer to SHAFT SEALING
section).
6. Ensure coupling is properly aligned and lubri-
cated, and pump and driver are properly dowelled
(refer to SHAFT/COUPLING ALIGNMENT proce-
dure).
7. Ensure coupling guard is in place.

2. Prepare the driver for start-up in accordance with
the manufacturers instructions.
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 other-
wise specified, the external temperature of the cas-
ing must be within 100
o
F.(55.6
o
C.) of the tempera-
ture 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 mis-
alignment 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
rate not to exceed 100
o
F.(55.6
o
C.) per hour.
4. Prime pump and ensure pump suction valve is
open.
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.
5. Ensure pump recirculating line (if required) is
open and free of obstructions.
6. Check that pump is vented by observing leakage
from casing vent and seal piping vent. Close vent
when liquid is emitted.
7A. If pump is equipped with a mechanical seal,
make sure seal piping is turned on.
7B. If pump is equipped with a packed box, turn on
cooling liquid.
8. Check pump rotating by starting unit momentarily.
The direction of rotation is shown on PUMP DATA
SHEET (1-1). Note the pump coasts to a gradual
stop.
CAUTION
IF PUMP STOPS ABRUPTLY WHEN DRIVER IS
SHUT DOWN, INVESTIGATE FOR PUMP BIND-
ING. TAKE NECESSARY REMEDIAL ACTION
BEFORE RESUMING OPERATION.
9A. Starting the driver (motor driven).
Prepare the driver for start-up in accordance with the
manufacturers instructions.
Start the driver.
9B. 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.
10. 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 suc-
tion line.

start-up is the same as that for initial starting.
SECURING THE PUMP
1A. Motor Driven.
De-energize driver circuit.
1B. Turbine Driven.
Stop turbine-driven pumps by manually tripping the
overspeed trip.
2. The pump should be shut down rapidly to protect
the internal wearing parts which are lubricated by the
liquid being pumped.
Lubrication is reduced when a pump is stopped
slowly, and seizure could result.
NOTE
If pump stops abruptly when driver is shut down, in-
vestigate for pump binding. Take necessary reme-
dial action before restarting pump.
3. Close the pump suction and discharge valve.
4. Close valve in bypass line.

LUBRICATING OIL
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 PERSON-
NEL TO INJURY.
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.
The frequency of oil change depends on the operat-
ing conditions and the quality of the lubricant. Oil
should be checked for deterioration and contamina-
tion weekly during periods of operation. Mineral oils
oxidize and should be replaced at no more than
three month intervals when operated continuously in
the 160
o
-180
o
F.(71
o
-82
o
C.) range. Longer intervals
between replacement may be possible at lower op-
erating temperatures, but three month intervals are
recommended to protect against normal oxidation,
contamination and deterioration.
OIL SPECIFICATIONS
Straight mineral oils without additives are generally
preferred for rolling element 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 mini-
mum Viscosity Index (VI) of 95 are recommended.
Lubricating oils are identified by an ISO Viscosity
Grade (VG) Number. The VG number is the viscos-
ity of the oil at 40oC.(104oF.) in centistokes. In the
majority of instances, a turbine oil with a VG Number
of 68 (nominally equivalent to SAE 20) will meet
rolling element bearing lubrication requirements (see
OIL TEMPERATURE).

OIL TEMPERATURE
Oil temperature entering the plain/thrust end bear-
ings should be maintained between 60
o
F.(15.6
o

and 180
o
F.(82
o
C.).
Alarm temperature is 190
o
F.(88
o
C.) with shut down
temperature set at 200
o
F.(93
o
C.).
If bearing oil temperature exceeds the above men-
tioned limits, cooling liquid to the lube oil cooler will
have to be increased.
IMPORTANT
The minimum bearing oil temperature is 60
o
F.
(16
o
C.). If necessary, prior to startup, one of the fol-
lowing procedures should be employed:
1. Drain the oil in the bearing housing(s) and re-
place with warm oil.
2. Heat the bearing housing(s) using heat tape (or
other suitable means).
3. Circulate warm liquid through the cooling jacket
or immersion cooler (if supplied).
4. Utilize oil with a lower viscosity, or VG number, or
consider using a synthetic hydrocarbon oil with a low
pour point to give a viscosity similar to that of ISO 68
(for maximum oil operating temperatures of 180
o
F.)
or ISO 32 (for maximum oil operating temperatures
of 120
o
F.).
NOTE
ISO 68 is recommended for continuous operating oil
temperatures between 100
o
F.(38
o
C.) and 180
o
F.
(82
o
C.), with a minimum startup temperature of
60
o
F.(16
o
C.); ISO 32 may be considered for continu-
ous operating oil temperatures between 60
o
F.
(16
o
C.) and 120
o
F.(49
o
C.), with a minimum startup
temperature of 40
o
F.(4
o
C.). For startup when oil
temperature is below 40
o
F.(4
o
C.), oil preheating is
recommended.
CLEANING THE LUBRICATION SYSTEM
PRIOR TO OPERATION
Before operating the pump, the lubrication system
should be thoroughly cleaned to remove any foreign
matter that may have accumulated during shipment,
storage or installation.
To clean the lubrication system, proceed as follows:
1. Loosen the bearing end covers and flingers and
remove drain plugs.
2. Flush out the bearing housings with kerosene or
other suitable solvent.
3. Flush the bearing housings with oil. Oil should be
compatible with lubricating oil that will be used.
4. After flushing, replace drain plugs. Reassemble
bearings and torque end cover bolting. (Refer to
MAINTENANCE section.)
5. Refer to driver instruction book for instructions
covering flushing of driver bearings.
TRICO OIL SETTING
Assemble oiler to bearing housing. Adjust oiler and
fill bearing housing with oil per Trico Oil Level Set-
ting drawing in Appendix.
WARNING
OPERATION OF THE UNIT WITH INCORRECT OIL
LEVEL SETTING CAN RESULT IN OVERHEATING
OF THE BEARINGS, LACK OF LUBRICATION TO
THE BEARINGS, BEARING FAILURES, PUMP
SEIZURES AND ACTUAL BREAKUP OF THE

MECHANICAL SEAL
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.
Cartridge type mechanical seals are preset at the
seal manufacturers facility and require no field set-
tings. The seal installation should be checked be-
fore startup.
Refer to the mechanical seal manufacturers drawing
and instructions found in the Appendix of this man-
ual for detailed information.
MECHANICAL SEAL REMOVAL
To remove mechanical seal from pump:
1. Install setting plates/eccentric washer in place.*
2. Loosen drive collar.
3. Remove gland bolting.
4. Slide sleeve with mechanical seal from shaft.

WARNING
WHEN HEATING PARTS, GLOVES OR OTHER
SUITABLE PROTECTION MUST BE WORN.
After impeller is heated, it will have to be pushed
toward the center of the pump, the split rings (1-252)
removed and quickly pulled from the end of the
shaft.
NOTE
The shaft is step machined at each impeller fit to
ease the disassembly process. It is recommended
that each impeller be marked with stage number to
insure proper reassembly.
HEATING IMPELLERS FOR REMOVAL
A. Apply heat (torch with fine tip) to periphery [outer
1.5 in.(38 mm)] of impeller until temperature
reaches 375
o
F.(191
o
C.) (minimum) to 400
o
F.
(204
o
C.) (maximum). Use tempilstick to de-
termine temperature.
B. Maintaining temperature between 375
o
400
o
F.
(191
o
204
o
C.) at the periphery, apply heat down
through the vane passages, thus heating the
hub.
C. Do not apply heat directly to shaft; this will cause
it to expand.
D. With periphery, shroud and hub at temperature,
remove impeller.
E. If the impeller does not move freely off the shaft,
additional heat may be necessary. THIS
HEATING SHOULD BE STARTED AT THE PE-
RIPHERY 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 im-
peller and shaft should be allowed to cool com-
pletely and the heating process repeated start-
ing at Step A.

4. Remove casing ring (1-006) from the next impel-
ler on the outboard impeller bank.
5. Repeat Steps 3 and 4 until all impellers are re-
moved on the outboard impeller bank.
6. Remove center sleeve (1-408).
7. Continue to disassemble the impellers by re-
peating Steps 3 and 4 until all inboard impellers (1-
003A) are removed from the shaft.
INSPECTION & RENEWAL OF PARTS
1. Having completely dismantled the rotor, check
the shaft for runout using V blocks or rollers placed
under the normal bearing areas. Runout not to ex-
ceed .002 in.(.051 mm) TIR.
2. Wire-brush the pump parts thoroughly. Clean off
all scale, carbon, etc. Examine parts for wearing,
corrosion and erosion.
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) over-
size]. 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 re-
spective 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 diametri-
cally 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.

cated from clearance holes in ring) for No. 10-
24X1/4 setscrews spaced half the circular distance
from the previously used holes in the impeller. See
sketch below.
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.
C. Dynamic-balance impeller.
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.
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.
Grinding Impeller For Dynamic-Balance
5. If pump is equipped with a cooled stuffing box
extension (4-264) and has a packed box arrange-
ment, 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 rea-
son, the tack welds will have to be ground off and
the bushing pressed from the extension. Do not re-
use stuffing box bushing if removed from extension
for any reason.
6. Clean the casing of all foreign material.
7. Renew all gasket and packing.
PARTING FLANGE GASKET
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.
1. Using proper recommended 1/64 in.(.397 mm)
thick gasket material, locate and cut stud holes, us-
ing upper half casing as a template.
2. Lay gasket on lower half casing, using either a
gasket adhesive or a band of shellac approximately
1/2 in.(13 mm) wide on the outer edge of lower cas-
ing.
3. Place upper half casing on top of gasket and al-
low time for gasket adhesive or shellac to set up.

BEARING HANDLING INFORMATION
Ball bearings require proper handling and installation
to ensure optimum performance. The following in-
formation is intended as a minimum to ensure that
the bearings are handled and installed properly.
BEARING HANDLING
1. Do not remove new bearings from their storage
package except to inspect the bearings, when stored
for a long period of time, or just prior to their installa-
tion.
Maintenance
7- 9












D

2. Work area must be clean to ensure that no dirt or
other contaminates will enter the bearings. Handle
bearings with clean, dry hands and with clean, lint
free rags. Lay bearing on clean paper and keep
covered. Never expose bearings on a dirty bench or
floor.
3. Do not wash a new bearing. It is already clean,
and the preservative should not be removed.
4. Before mounting, be sure shaft bearing areas are
clean and free of nicks and burrs. Check the dimen-
sions of these areas to ensure proper fit of bearings.
BEARING INSTALLATION
1. There are two simple methods of providing a heat
source for expanding the inner race of the bearings
to facilitate mounting. In the first method, bearings
still wrapped in their original intimate wrap are
placed on a shelf in a temperature controlled oven,
or in an enclosure lined with foil and heated with
electric light bulbs. A temperature of 150
o
F.(66
o
C.)
for one-half hour should be sufficient.
A second method consists of locating a light bulb
(100 to 150 watt) in the bore of the bearing. Primar-
ily the light bulb will heat the inner ring, and the
bearing can usually be handled by the outer ring
without special gloves. Care must be taken to keep
the bearing clean and uncontaminated.
LIGHT BULBS ARE LOCATED IN THE BORE OF
THE BEARINGS AS A HEAT SOURCE FOR EX-
PANDING THE INNER RACES OF BEARINGS FOR
MOUNTING.
NOTE
The old and popular method of heating bearings in
an oil bath is DEFINITELY DISCOURGED. HEAT-
ING INNER BEARING RACE WITH A GAS TORCH
IS PROHIBITED. In either case, it is difficult to con-
trol the heating rate and final temperature, and even
more difficult to keep the oil and/or bearing clean.
2. When bearings are installed on shaft or journal
sleeve, make sure bearing is installed squarely and
is firmly seated. Hold bearing in place until it has
cooled sufficiently so that it will not move from posi-
tion. Cover bearings to protect them from dirt.
NOTE
When installing bearings, the mounting pressure
should never be transmitted through the balls. Apply
the mounting force directly against and only against
the inner ring.
3. When installing bearing housing onto the bearing
and shaft, the bearing housing bores and bearing
outside diameter should be coated with the grease
or lubricating oil to facilitate assembly.
BEARING REMOVAL
If bearings cannot be removed with the tools avail-
able, never use a torch under any circumstances.
Split the outer ring with a small hand grinder, saw
through the ball/roller retainer, and split the inner ring
about three quarters through with a grinder and
break with a cold chisel while supporting the pump
shaft below the inner race.
NOTE
Do not use cold chisel when shaft is supported by
bearing lining.
BEARING CLEANING
NOTE
Do not attempt to inspect condition of bearings until
they are cleaned.
Maintenance
7-10












D
A

B
/
B
1. Solvent for cleaning bearings should be in a clean
container. Place bearings in solvent and let soak for
a short time. Slosh the bearing around near the top
of the container, giving it a turn now and then until it
is clean. Rinse in a clean container of clean solvent.
NOTE
Do not spin dirty bearings. Rotate them slowly while
washing.
2. Dry the thoroughly cleaned bearings. If an air
hose is used for drying, use clean, dry air.
NOTE
Do not allow the bearing to spin by force of air. Hold
both the inner and outer rings to prevent bearing
from spinning.
3. Inspect bearings immediately. If there is any
questions as to the condition of a bearing, it must not
be reused. There are many conditions that contrib-
ute to the deterioration of the bearings. A qualified
bearing representative should be consulted if there
is any question as to bearing condition.
4. Inspected bearings which will be reused should be
packed with new grease or dipped in clean lubricat-
ing oil, covered with clean lint-free rags or other suit-
able covering, and placed in a clean box or carton
until ready for installation.
NOTE
Under no circumstances are the bearings to be left
exposed, they should be protected by wrapping or
covered.

NOTE
Make sure parting flange jack screws (3-118B), in
lower half casing, are backed out far enough so as
not to protrude above parting flange machined sur-
face.
ASSEMBLE STUFFING BOX EXTENSION
If pump is equipped with a cooled stuffing box ex-
tension (4-264) if must be assembled to pump at this
time.
1. Renew O ring (4-456B) and assemble to O
ring groove on stuffing box extension.
2. Assemble stuffing box extension (4-264) to the
casing. Assemble washers (4-241B) and nuts (4-
279B). Tighten nuts to the proper torque value.
CHECK ROTOR VERTICAL LIFT
It is necessary to check and record the vertical lift of
the rotor within the casing.
1. Place a dial indicator on the upper half casing
with the indicator tip resting on the top of the shaft.
Zero the indicator.
2. Using a bar and a block of wood under the shaft,
lift the shaft and record the movement. Take meas-
urements at both ends of the pump.
3. The minimum acceptable vertical movement is
the minimum back ring clearance on the suction end
of the pump and the minimum throttling bushing
clearance on the discharge end of the pump. For
clearances, refer to the assembly drawings included
in Appendix of this manual.
4. If this minimum movement is not obtained, the
cause must be investigated and corrected.
CHECK ROTOR AXIAL FLOAT
1. Push the rotor (3-184) toward the coupling end
as far as it will go.
CAUTION
DO NOT FORCE ROTOR.
NOTE
Some of the rotor weight may have to be supported
externally. The rotor is now being supported by the
impeller rings contacting the channel rings.
2. Place a piece of masking tape on the shaft (if
seal is used) or shaft sleeve (if packed box is used),
in the stuffing box area, at the thrust end of the
pump. Place a scale across the face of the stuffing
box and make a line on the masking tape.
3. Push the rotor toward outboard end as far as it
will go. Using scale, mark another line on masking
tape.

4. Measure and record the total rotor end float be-
tween the two lines. The acceptable minimum end
float is given on the pump assembly drawing (in-
cluded in Appendix). If this minimum end float is not
obtained, the cause must be investigated and cor-
rected. Two of the most likely causes could be:
A. Impellers not properly seated against the split
ring.
B. Improperly machined part, i.e. impeller ring or
channel ring.
5. Mark another line midway between the first two
lines. This Center line represents the centering of
the impellers within their volutes. Masking tape is to
be left on shaft for use in CENTRALIZE ROTOR
AXIALLY.
HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL SHAFT ALIGN-
MENT
1. If pump is equipped with a seal cage (4-014), the
seal cage is to be assembled to shaft and temporar-
ily positioned on shaft sleeve.
NOTE
For pumps equipped with mechanical seal (4-429),
install coupling-end seal only. Install gland bolting,
but do not tighten. Do not tighten setscrews in lock
collar, as shaft must be free to move thru mechanical
seal.
2. Assemble Plain Bearing
A. Slide pump-side flinger (5-157A) onto shaft and
rest near stuffing box. Do not tighten setscrew (5-
259B) at this time.
B. Slide pump-side end cover (5-160A) onto shaft.
C. Heat plain bearing (5-205) and install on shaft.
(Refer to pages titled BEARING HANDLING IN-
FORMATION.)
D. Install journal sleeve (5-135), bearing lockwasher
(5-241), locknut (5-240) and tighten. Set locking
tabs of lockwasher.
E. Assemble bearing housing (5-159) into position
over the plain ball bearing (5-205). Install dowel pins
(5-029) and snug down capscrews (5-118A). Install
both the horizontal and vertical adjusting screws (5-
259A) in the bearing housing mounting flange. Re-
move dowel pins (5-029).
F. Assemble oil ring (5-031) on journal sleeve (5-
135). Apply a layer of liquid gasket to machined
surface of end covers (5-160A and 5-160B). As-
semble bearing end covers to bearing housing. In-
stall capscrews (5-118B and 5-118C). Torque cap-
screws to proper value.
G. Install coupling-side flinger (5-157B). Do not
tighten setscrews (5-259B) at this time.
3. Assemble Thrust Bearing
A. Slide pump-side flinger (6-157) onto shaft to-
wards stuffing box. Do not tighten setscrew (6-
259B) at this time.
B. Slide pump-side end cover (6-160) with .020
in.(.51 mm) shims (6-257B) and O ring (6-456)
onto shaft.
C. Install shims (6-257A) against shaft shoulder if
amount was recorded at disassembly. If shim thick-
ness was not recorded at disassembly or if rotor was
rebuilt completely, do not install any shims at this
time.
D. Assemble Dummy Bearing to shaft. It is rec-
ommended for initial pump assembly (pump being
assembled for ROTOR CENTRALIZATION
CHECK), that a DUMMY BEARING (not fur-
nished) be substituted for the double row thrust
bearing (6-204). This will ease the assembly and
disassembly process in the event shims (6-257A)
have to be added or removed between thrust bear-
ing and shoulder of shaft. (A DUMMY BEARING
can be made by taking a used set of ball bearings
and opening up the bore so it has a .0005 in.(.0127
mm) to .0010in.(.0254 mm) loose fit to the shaft.)
Compare width of outside bearing races with new
bearing races. Differences must be compensated
when adjusting for .005 in.(.127 mm) to .010 in.(.254
mm) end play.
E. Install journal sleeve (6-135), lockwasher (6-
241A), locknut (6-240) and tighten.
Maintenance
7-14

NOTE
Do not set locking tab of lockwasher at this time,
Dummy Bearing will have to be removed.
F. Carefully install bearing housing (6-159) into po-
sition over the thrust ball bearing.
NOTE
Bearing bodies have been pre-set at factory and
doweled to casing. Rotor vertical and horizontal
alignment should be checked. Rotor should turn
with no indication of binding. Should rotor require
further adjustment, remove dowel pins (5-029/6-029)
and proceed with Steps 4,5, and 6.
G. Install dowel pins (6-029) and bearing housing to
casing capscrews (6-118A) and snug down cap-
screws. Install both the vertical and horizontal ad-
justing screws (6-259A) in the bearing housing
mounting flange. Remove dowel pins (6-029).
NOTE
If bearing housing contacts ball thrust bearing and
moves rotor off center mark, remove shims (6-
257A) between ball bearing and shaft shoulder and
reposition rotor back on center mark.
4. Using a set of inside-spring calipers and the ad-
justing screws (2-259A), adjust the horizontal and
vertical position of the shaft at the plain bearing end
so that the distance between the shaft sleeve or
shaft and the stuffing box bore is the same all the
way around.
5. Repeat Step 4 on thrust end, then recheck plain
end. Pump shaft should turn free with no indication
of binding or rubbing. This should be taken into
consideration when making adjustments.
6. When vertical and horizontal alignment is ob-
tained, tighten bearing housing bolting except the
two top bolts at the adjusting screws. Ream dowel
holes and install dowel pins (5-029/6-029). Loosen
adjusting screws and tighten the two top bearing
housing bolts.
CENTRALIZE ROTOR AXIALLY
1. Make sure center mark on masking tape is in line
with stuffing box face per step 5 of CHECK ROTOR
AXIAL FLOAT instructions.
2. Install dial indicator on thrust bearing housing (6-
159) so indicator contacts the end of shaft. Set indi-
cator at zero.
3. Push rotor outboard to ensure contact between
thrust ball bearing (6-204) and bearing housing (6-
159).
4. Read the distance the shaft moved on the dial
indicator. This is the amount of shims (6-257A) to be
installed between thrust ball bearing (6-204) and
shaft.
SET THRUST BEARING END PLAY
CAUTION
THE THRUST BALL BEARING REQUIRES .005
TO .010 AXIAL END PLAY.
1. Install inboard end cover (6-160) with shims (6-
257B) and O ring (6-456). Install lockwashers (6-
241B) and capscrews (6-118B).
2. Install a dial indicator on thrust bearing housing
(6-159) so indicator contacts the end of the shaft.
Push rotor inboard (towards coupling end) and set
indicator at zero. Push rotor outboard. The dial in-
dicator will show amount of axial end play.
a. If distance indicated is between .005 in.(.127 mm)
to .010 in.(.254 mm) no further shims adjustment is
required.
b. If distance indicated is above .010 in.(.254 mm),
remove inboard end cover (6-160) and remove
amount of shims (6-257B) which will reduce axial
end play to .005 in.(.127 mm) to .010 in.(.254 mm).
c. If distance indicated is below .005 in.(.127mm),
remove inboard end cover (6-160) and add shims (6-
257B) which will increase axial end play to .005
in.(.127 mm) to .010 in.(.254 mm) (shims may be cut
for ease of assembly).
