This symbol indicates safety instructions where non-compliance will involve some risk to safe operation and personal safety and would damage the equipment or property.
This symbol indicates explosive atmosphere zone marking according to ATEX. It is used in safety instructions where non-compliance in the hazardous area would cause the risk of an explosion.
This symbol is used in safety instructions to remind not to rub non-metallic surfaces with a dry cloth; ensure the cloth is damp. It is used in safety instructions where non-compliance in the hazardous area would cause the risk of an explosion.
This sign is not a safety symbol but indicates
an important instructi on in t he assem bly proce ss.
1.6.2 Personnel qualification and training
All personnel involved in the operation, installation, inspection and maintenance of the unit must be qualified to carry out the work involved. If the personnel in question do not already possess the necessary knowledge and skill, appropriate training and instruction must be provided. If required the operator may commission the manufacturer/supplier to provide applicable training.
Always coordinate repair activity with operations and health and safety personnel, and follow all plant safety requirements and applicable safety and health laws and regulations.
1.6.3 Safety action
This is a summary of conditions and actions to prevent injury to personnel and damage to the environment and to equipment. For products used in potentially explosive atmospheres section 1.6.4 also applies.
NEVER DO MAINTENANCE WORK
WHEN THE UNIT IS CONNECTED TO POWER
GUARDS MUST NOT BE REMOVED WHILE
THE PUMP IS OPERATIONAL
DRAIN THE PUMP AND ISOLATE PIPEWORK BEFORE DISMANTLING THE PUMP The appropriate safety precautions should be taken where the pumped liquids are hazardous.
FLUORO-ELASTOMERS (When fitted.) When a pump has experienced temperatures over 250 ºC (482 ºF), partial decomposition of fluoro­elastomers (example: Viton) will occur . In this condition these are extremely dangerous and skin contact must be avoided.
HANDLING COMPONENTS Many precision parts have sharp corners and the wearing of appropriate safety gloves and equipment is required when handling these components. To lift heavy pieces above 25 kg (55 lb) use a crane appropriate for the mass and in accordance with current local regulations.
APPLYING HEAT TO REMOVE IMPELLER There may be occasions when the impeller has either been shrunk fit on to the pump shaft or has become difficult to remove due to products of corrosion.
If you elect to use heat to remove the impeller , it must be applied quickly to the impeller boss. TAKE GREAT CARE!
Before applying heat ensure any residual hazardous liquid trapped between the impeller and pump shaft is thoroughly drained out through the impeller keyway to prevent an explosion or emission of toxic vapour. This must be carried out with the shaft in the vertical position. On some pump sizes a cavity exists in the impeller bore so on occasions a significant volume of liquid may drain out.
THERMAL SHOCK Rapid changes in the temperature of the liquid within the pump can cause thermal shock, which can result in damage or breakage of components and should be avoided.
Page 4 of 55 flowserve.com
Page 5
APKD DOUBLE-CASE, DOUBLE-SUCTION USER INSTRUCTIONS 26999903 07-13
HOT (and cold) PARTS If hot or freezing components or auxiliary heating supplies can present a danger to operators and persons entering the immediate area action must be taken to avoid accidental contact. If complete protection is not possible, the machine access must be limited to maintenance staff only, with clear visual warnings and indicators to those entering the immediate area. Note: bearing housings must not be insulated and drive motors and bearings may be hot.
If the temperature is greater than 80 ºC (175 ºF) or below -5 ºC (20 ºF) in a restricted zone, or exceeds local regulations, action as above shall be taken.
HAZARDOUS LIQUIDS When the pump is handling hazardous liquids care must be taken to avoi d exposure t o the liq uid by appropriate siting of the pump, limiting personnel access and by operator training. If the liquid is flammable and/or explosive, strict safety procedures must be applied.
Gland packing must not be used when pumping hazardous liquids.
PREVENT EXCESSIVE EXTERNAL PIPE LOAD Do not use pump as a support for piping. Do not mount expansion joints, unless allowed by Flowserve in writing, so that their force, due to internal pressure, acts on the pump flange.
ENSURE CORRECT LUBRICATION (See section 5, Commissioning, startup, operation and shutdown.)
START THE PUMP WITH OUTLET VALVE PARTLY OPENED (Unless otherwise instructed at a specific point in the User Instructions.) This is recommended to minimize the risk of overloading and damaging the pump motor at full or zero flow. Pumps may be started with the valve further open only on installations where this situation cannot occur. The pump outlet control valve may need to be adjusted to comply with the duty following the run-up process. (See section 5, Commissioning start-up, operation and shutdown.)
NEVER RUN THE PUMP DRY
DO NOT RUN THE PUMP AT ABNORMALLY HIGH OR LOW FLOW RATES Operating at a flow rate higher than norma l or at a flo w rate with no back pressure on the pump may overload the motor and cause cavitation. Low flow rates may cause a reduction in pump/beari ng life, ov erheatin g of the pump, instability and cavitation/vibrat ion.
1.6.1 Products used in potentially explosive
atmospheres
Measures are required to:
Avoid excess temperature  Prevent build up of explosive mixtures  Prevent the generation of sparks  Prevent leakages  Maintain the pump to avoid hazard
The following instru ctions fo r pumps a nd pum p units when installed in potentially explosive atmospheres must be followed to help ensure explosion protecti on. For ATEX, both electrical and non-electrical equipment must meet the requirements of E uropean Directiv e 94/9/EC. Always observe the reg ional le gal Ex requirements eg Ex elect rical item s out side the E U may be required certified to other than ATEX eg IECEx, UL.
1.6.1.1 Scope of compliance
Use equipment only in the zone for whic h it is appropriate. Always check that the driver, drive coupling assembly, seal and pump equipment are suitably rated and/or certifie d for the classi fication of the specific atmosphere in which they are to be inst alled.
Where Flowserve has supplied only the bare shaft pump, the Ex rating applies only to the pump. The party responsible for assembling the ATEX pump set shall select the coupling, driver and any additional equipment, with the necessary CE Certificate/ Declaration of Conformity establishing it is suitable for the area in which it is to be installed.
The output from a variable frequency drive (VFD) can cause additional heating affects in the motor and so, for pumps sets with a VFD, the ATEX Certification for the motor must state that it is covers the situation where electrical supply is from the VFD. This particular requirement still applies even if the VFD is in a safe area.
INLET VA LVES TO BE FULLY OPE N WHEN PUMP IS RUNNING Running the pump at zero flow or below the recommended minimum flow continuously will cause damage to the pump and mechanical seal.

ENSURE THE EQUIPMENT TEMPERATURE
CLASS IS SUITABLE FOR THE HAZARD ZONE Pumps have a temperature class as stated in the
ATEX Ex rating on the nameplate. These are based on a maximum ambient of 40 ºC (104 ºF); refer to Flowserve for higher ambient temperatures.
The surface temperature on the pump is influenced by the temperature of the liquid handled. The maximum permissible liquid temperature depends on the temperature class and must not exceed the values in the table that follows.

The temperature rise at the seals and bearings and due to the minimum permitted flow rate is taken into account in the temperatures stated.
The responsibility for compliance with the specified maximum liquid temperature is with the plant operator.
Temperature classification “Tx” is used when the liquid temperature varies and the pump could be installed in different hazarous atmospheres. In this case the user is responsible for ensuring that the pump surface temperature does not exceed that permitted in the particular hazardous atmosphere.
If an explosive atmosphere exists during the installation, do not attempt to check the direction of rotation by starting the pump unfilled. Even a short run time may give a high temperature resulting from contact between rotating and stationary components.
Where there is any risk of the pump being run against a closed valve generating high liquid and casing external surface temperatures, fit an external surface temperature protection device.
Avoid mechanical, hydraulic or electrical overload by using motor overload trips, temperature monitor or a power monitor and make routine vibration monitoring checks.
In dirty or dusty environments, make regular checks and remove dirt from areas around close clearances, bearing housings and motors.
1.6.1.4 Preventing the build up of explosive mixtures
ENSURE THE PUMP IS PROPERLY FILLED AND VENTED AND DOES NOT RUN DRY Ensure the pump and relevant suction and discharge pipeline system is totally filled with liquid at all times during the pump operation, so that an explosive atmosphere is prevented. In addition it is essential to make sure that seal chambers, auxiliary shaft seal systems and any heating and cooling systems are properly filled.
If the operation of the system cannot avoid this condition fit an appropriate dry run protection device (for example liquid detection or a power monitor).
To avoid potential hazards from fugitive emissions of vapour or gas to atmosphere the surrounding area must be well ventilated.

Page 7
APKD DOUBLE-CASE, DOUBLE-SUCTION USER INSTRUCTIONS 26999903 07-13
1.6.1.5 Preventing sparks
To prevent a potential hazard from mechanical
contact, the coupling guard must be non-sparking. To avoid the potential hazard from random induced
current generating a spark, the baseplate must be properly grounded.
Avoid electrostatic charge: do not rub n on-metalli c
surfaces with a dry cloth; ensure cloth is damp. For ATEX application sthe coupling must be selected
to comply with 94/9/EC. Correct coupling alignment must be maintained.
Additional requirement for metallic pumps on non-metallic baseplates
When metallic components are fitted on a non­metallic baseplate they must be individually earthed.
1.6.1.6 Preventing leakage
The pump must only be used to handle liquids for which it has been approved to have the correct corrosion resistance.
Avoid entrapment of liquid in the pump a nd associat ed piping due to closing of suct ion an d discharg e valves, which could cause dangerous excessiv e pressures to occur if there is heat input t o the liqu id. This ca n occur if the pump is stationary or running.
Bursting of liquid containing parts due to freezing must be avoided by draining or protecting the pump and ancillary systems.
Where there is the potential hazard of a loss of a seal barrier fluid or external flush, the fluid must be monitored.
If leakage of liquid to atmosphere can result in a hazard, install a liquid detection device.
1.6.1.7 Maintenance to avoid the hazard
CORRECT MAINTENANCE IS REQUIRED TO AVOID POTENTIAL HAZARDS WHICH GIVE A RISK OF EXPLOSION
The responsibility for compliance with maintenance instructions is with the plant operator.
To avoid potential explosion hazards during maintenance, the tools, cleaning and painting materials used must not give rise to sparking or adversely affect the ambient conditions. Where there
is a risk from such tools or materials, maintenance must be conducted in a safe area.
It is recommended that a maintenance plan and schedule is adopted. (See section 6, Maintenance.)

1.8 Noise level

Attention must be given to the exposure of personnel to the noise, and local legislation will define when guidance to personnel on noise limitation is required, and when noise exposure reduction is mandatory. This is typically 80 to 85 dBA.
The usual approach is to control the exposure time to the noise or to enclose the machine to reduce emitted sound. You may have already specified a limiting noise level when the equipment was ordered, however if no noise requirements were defined, then attention is drawn to the following table to give an indication of equipment noise level so that you can take the appropriate action in your plant.
Page 7 of 55 flowserve.com
Page 8
APKD DOUBLE-CASE, DOUBLE-SUCTION USER INSTRUCTIONS 26999903 07-13
Pump noise level is dependent on a number of operational factors, flow rate, pipework design and acoustic characteristics of the building, and so the values given are subject to a 3 dBA tolerance and cannot be guaranteed.
Similarly the motor noise a ssumed in t he “pump and motor” noise is that typically expected f rom sta ndard and high efficiency motors when on load dire ctly driving the pump. Note that a motor driven by an inverter may show an increased noise at some speeds.
If a pump unit only has been purchased for fitting with your own driver then the “pump only” noise levels in the table should be combined with the level for the driver obtained from the supplier. Consult Flowserv e or a noise specialist if assistance is required in combining the values.
It is recommended that where exposure approaches the prescribed limit, then site noise measurements should be made.
The values are in sound pressure level L
at 1 m
pA
(3.3 ft) from the machine, for “free field conditions over a reflecting plane”.
For estimating sound power level L
(re 1pW) then
WA
add 17 dBA to the sound pressure value.

The noise levels shown in table 1.8.1 are extracted from typical motor manufacturer’s data/catalogue to provide the average expected motor noise values at no load for reference only and are not guaranteed. The values could vary depending upon the test and surrounding conditions. The combined noise level of the pump and the motor could exceed the values shown. It is to be noted that adding motors with similar noise levels increases the total noise level. Therefore, the dB correction to the values listed above is required to obtain the combined noise levels of motor and the pump. Actual on-site noise measurement by experts is recommended and safety measures are to be taken accordingly.

1.9 Specific machine performance

For performance parameters see section 1.5, Duty conditions. When the contract requirement specifies
these to be incorporated into User Instructions these are included here. Where performance data has been supplied separately to the purchaser these should be obtained and retained with these User Instructions if required.

2 TRANSPORT AND STORAGE

2.1 Consignment receipt and unpacking

Immediately after receipt of the equipment it must be checked against the delivery and shipping documents for its completeness and that there has been no damage in transportation. Any shortage and or damage must be reported immediately to Flowserve and received in writing within one month of receipt of the equipment. Later claims cannot be accepted.
Check any crates, boxes and wrappings for any accessories or spare parts which may be packed
Page 8 of 55 flowserve.com
Page 9
APKD DOUBLE-CASE, DOUBLE-SUCTION USER INSTRUCTIONS 26999903 07-13
separately with the equipment or attached to side walls of the box or equipment.
Each product has a unique serial number. Check that this number corresponds with that advised and always quote this number in correspondence as well as when ordering spare parts or further accessories.

2.2 Handling

Boxes, crates, pallets or cartons may be unloaded using fork lift vehicles or slings dependent on their size and construction.

2.3 Lifting

A crane must be used for all pump sets or components in excess of 25 kg (55 lb). Fully trained personnel must carry out lifting, in accordance with local regulations.
To avoid distortion, the pump unit should be lifted by using lifting equipment certified to local standards.
The pumps are generally very heavy therefore, size/shape factors will have to be considered before attempting to lift them. It is strongly recommended to attempt lifting from a safe distance to prevent any injury or loss of life. Consulting with experts is recommended.
Pump heads may be shipped with the seal housing installed. For ease of assembly and to prevent damage, we recommend removing the housing before putting the head on the pump.
Flowserve will not supply eyebolts neither fixed nor separately with the pump. It is the responsibility of the installer to arrange appropriate hardware that can handle the weights and results in safe and successful installation.
Before lifting the driver alone, refer to the manufacturer’s instructions.
2.3.1 Lifting of fabricated discharge heads with
or without the pump
If the pump is supplied with a fabricated discharge head use 2 point or 3 point method of lifting as shown in the details provided in 2.3.1.1 & 2.3.1.2. This method is applicable to the lifting of discharge heads with or without the pump.
2.3.1.1 Two point lifting of fabricated discharge head types TF, UF & HFH (with or without pump attached)

2.3.2 Lifting of bowl assembly only
Clamp the bowl assembly and center the lifting hook for lifting and lowering the assembly into the sump/suction barrel.
a) Lower the bowl assembly until the clamp
extensions rest on the foundation (use appropriate supports).
b) Build the very first section of the column piping,
and lower the entire assembly to assemble the next column section.
c) Continue to build until it is ready for discharge
head assembly. d) Install the discharge head. e) Assemble the motor.
Example: Lifting of bowl assembly

2.3.4 Lifting of fully assembled pumps
If the pump is fully assembled, it has to be adequately strapped and supported at least two places before it can be lifted from the shipping crate and moved to the installation site. See details shown. Same rules are applicable when the pump is pulled out from the sump and moved to another location.
Figure 2.5
Examples shown here are for illustration only. See section 2.3 1 for specific lifting instructions based on design variations. The pumps vary in weight, length and physical appearances from the types shown here. Therefore, before lifting is attempted, exercise caution to prevent any injuries or loss of life.

2.4 Storage

Store the pump in a clean , dry location away from vibration. Leave piping connection covers in place to keep dirt and other foreign material out of pump casing. Turn the pump at frequent intervals to prevent brinelling of the bearings and the seal faces, if fitted, from sticking.
2.4.1 Inspection before storage
a) Inspect the preservative coating/painted surfaces
on the various parts. Touch up the areas, If necessary.

3.3 Design of major parts

3.3.1 Drivers
Solid shaft drivers: where the rotor shaft is solid and projects below the driver-mounting base. This type driver requires an adjustable coupling for connecting to the pump.
3.3.2 Discharge Head Assembly
(See also section 3.2.2.1) The discharge head supports the driver and bowl assembly as well as supplying a discharge connection in most cases.
A shaft sealing arrangement is located in the discharge head to seal the shaft at its exit from the liquid chamber.
The shaft seal will usually be either a mechanical seal assembly or stuffing box with an open lineshaft or a tube-packing box with an enclosed lineshaft.
3.3.3 Column assembly
The column assembly consists of column pipe, which connects the bowl assembly to the discharge head and carries the pumped fluid to the discharge head. Houses and supports the shaft and may contain bearings. T ypical column assembly shown below:
a) flanged column assembly
Figure 3.8
3.3.4 Bowl assemblies
The bowl assembly consists of impellers rigidly mounted on the pump shaft coupled to an electric motor. Impellers are cast wheels with multiple diffuser vanes and are generally coated to meet the hydraulic requirements. See section 8.0 for cross sectional and part details.
3.3.5 Suction strainers
Ina new installation, great care should be taken to prevent dirt, scale and welding beads from entering the pump, as it is particularly important to protect the numerous close running fits form abrasive matter present in new piping.
The suction system should be thoroughly flushed before installation the suction and making up suction piping to the pump
The suction strainer should be installed 4 pipe diameters away from suction.
Cone Type Strainer
Figure 3.9
The column supports shaft assemblies, that are of an open lineshaft construction utilizing the fluid being pumped to lubricate the lineshaft bearings. The shafts are key coupled with clamp ring design.
See sectional drawings supplied with the pump for exact column assembly details as per the order. The size and configuration vary depending upon the specific order requirements and application criteria.
3.3.6 Impellers
The double suction first stage impeller (3A) is keyed and held in position on pump end shaft (10A) by shaft nut. The shaft nut is secured to the shaft with set screws. The remaining single suction intermediate impellers are also keyed. Each impeller is held in position on the upper shaft by use of a split lock collar secured with cap screws. All impellers are of the enclosed type, one piece constructions, and are dynamically balanced.
3.3.7 Stuffing box
Some APKD’s are fitted with stuffing boxes. In such cases, stuffing boxes are normally adequate for working pressures up to 20.7 bar (300 psi). Refer to stuffing box User Instructions for specifications.

4.1.6 Installation of drivers
Drivers will come with solid shaft as specified on the order/contract. Choose the correct installation procedure from the following paragraphs.
Reverse rotation with the pump shaft connected can cause extensive damage to the pump. Always check rotation before connecting driver to pump.
4.1.6.1 Installation of solid shaft driver
When lowering the motor and driver half of coupling onto pump, do not let pump half of the coupling touch the driver half of the coupling.
Before bumping motor make sure coupling halves are not touching and that the driver can rotate freely, without rotating the pump
Driver half coupling must be in proper position so the circular key will not come out.
a) Clean driver mounting flange on discharge head
and check for burrs or nicks on the register and mounting face. Oil lightly.
b) Center motor over pump and rotate to align
mounting holes. Rotate junction box into desired position.
c) Lower driver carefully into place making certain
that the female register on the driver mates over
the male register on the pump. d) Bolt driver to discharge head. e) Check driver manufacturer's instructions for
special instructions including lubrication
instructions and follow all "startup" instructions. f) Drivers should be checked for rotation at this time.
Make electrical connections "bump" motor
(momentarily start, then stop) to check rotation.
DRIVER MUST ROTATE
COUNTERCLOCKWISE when looking down at
top end of motor. To change the direction of
rotation on a three-phase motor, interchange any
two line leads. To change direction of rotation on
a two-phase motor, interchange the leads of either
phase. g) See impeller adjustment instructions (section 5.3)
before bolting the pump and driver half of the
coupling together.

4.1.6.2 Installation of solid shaft driver with jacking screws
a) Clean driver mounting flange on discharge head
and check for burrs or nicks on the register and mounting face. Oil lightly.
b) Center motor over pump and rotate to align
mounting holes. Rotate junction box into desired position.
c) Lower driver carefully into place. Mount the dial
indicator base on the O.D. of the motor half coupling. Set the indicator on the pump shaft, position the dial to zero being careful that the indicator is in direct line with one of the jackscrews. Record this reading then rotate the motor shaft and indicator 180 degrees. Record this reading being careful to note plus or minus values. Take the difference of the two readings and using the jackscrews move the motor one­half of the difference. Repeat this step until the T.I.R. reading is a maximum of 0.051mm (0.002in.). Then repeat this step for the set of jack screws located 90 degrees to the first set. Once all readings are within 0.051mm (0.002in.), tighten motor bolts and check for any movement in readings.
d) Check driver manufacturer's instructions for
special instructions including lubrication instructions and follow all "startup" instructions.
e) Drivers should be checked for rotation at this
time. Make electrical connections and "bump" motor (momentarily start, then stop) to check rotation. DRIVER MUST ROTATE COUNTER­CLOCKWISE when looking down at top end of motor. To change the direction of rotation on a three-phase motor, interchange any two line leads. To change direction of rotation on a two­phase motor, interchange the leads of either phase.
f) See impeller adjustment instructions (section 5.3
before bolting the pump and driver half of the coupling together.

4.2 Part Assemblies

Motors may be supplied separately from the pumps. It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure that the motor is assembled to the pump and aligned as detailed in section 4.5. Discharge head column piping and the pump assembly are supplied either separately or as fully assembled depending upon the pump size and weight. If the parts are shipped separately, it is the customer’s responsibility to install and align the pump with driver to the satisfaction of Flowserve’s installation instructions.

4.3 Foundation

There are many methods of installing pump units to their foundations. The correct method depends on the size of the pump unit, its location and noise vibration limitations. Non-compliance with the provision of correct foundation and installation may lead to failure of the pump and, as such, would be outside the terms of the warranty.
The foundation may consist of material that will afford permanent, rigid support to the discharge head and will absorb expected stresses that may be encountered in service.
Concrete foundations should have anchor bolts installed in sleeves that are twice the diameter of the bolt to allow alignment and has holes in the mounting plate as illustrated in the detail below.
When a suction barrel is supplied as in the case of the type "TF" discharge head, the suction vessel must provide permanent, rigid support for the pump and motor. It should be mounted on a firm foundation.

DISCHARGE
HEAD FLANGE
372
373
CONCRETE
101
Some wet pit pumps are installed directly by using the flange that comes as an integral part of the discharge head. The pump is lowered into the pit and aligned with the anchor bolts [372].
The mounting flange is shimmed to achieve required level by using a precision machinist’s level. The
pump is to be leveled to within 0.08 mm/m (0.001 in./ft). The data to be recorded for future reference.
Anchor bolt nuts [373] are tightened sufficient enough to hold down the pump in place.
Grout is poured and allowed to set for at least 72~80 hours (cure as required) before any further work is done on the pump.
If leveling nuts are used to level the base, they must be backed off as far as possible prior to grouting.
Always shim near foundation bolts and then back off the leveling nuts. Now tighten the foundation bolts. If done otherwise there is a risk of significantly lowering the structural natural frequency that could result in separation of the base from the grout.
Directly mounted pumps are not user friendly for service. Re-installation of these pumps requires re-leveling and re-grouting.
4.3.2 Leveling of pumps mounted on a
soleplate and the soleplate is grouted
Some pumps are mounted on a separate plate known as soleplate [23]. In such cases, the level shall be set with a master level or a precision machinist’s
level. The mounting surface needs to be leveled to within 0.08 mm per m (0.001 in. per one ft).
The level should not exceed 0.125 mm (0.005 in.) elevation difference taken on any two points on the individual soleplate. Accurate shimming and grouting of the soleplate is very important. Record the leveling data for future reference. Grout the soleplate and allow to set at least 72~80 hours (cure as required) before the pump is lowered into the pit. Align the discharge head boltholes with the anchor bolts [372].
Check and adjust the pump level to within 0.08 mm per m (0.001 in./ft) with respect to the soleplate
and torque the nuts [373] to the required level.

4.3.3 Leveling of pumps with the suction barrel (also referred as “Can” VTPs)
The suction barrel [315] is first lowered into the pit and aligned with the anchor bolts [372]. The suction barrel flange is leveled by using a master level or a precision machinist’s level. Levels should be taken on the equipment mounting surfaces. The suction barrel flange mounting surface needs to be leveled to within
0.08 mm per m (0.001 in./ft) using shims and
grouted. Allow the grout to set for at least 72~80
hours before the pump is installed. Check the barrel mounting surface level after the grout is set and then proceed with the pump installation. Lower the pump assembly into the pit and align the discharge head flange bolt holes to the anchor bolts [372].
Check and adjust the pump level with respect to the barrel flange to within 0.08 mm per m (0.001 in./ft) and final torque the nuts [373]. The leveling data to be recorded for future reference.

Grouting provides solid contact between the pump unit and foundation that prevents lateral movement of running equipment and dampens resonant vibrations.
Foundation bolts should only be fully
tightened after the grout has been cured.

4.5 Initial Alignment

4.5.1 Thermal expansion
The pump and motor will normally have to be aligned at ambient temperature and should be corrected to allow for thermal expansion at operating temperature. In pump installations involving high liquid temperatures, the unit should be run at the actual operating temperature, shut down and the alignment checked immediately.
4.5.2 Preparation before alignment
To ensure proper alignment the following items are very important.
a) All machined mating surfaces (such as the
mating flanges of pump and motor) must be clean and free of burrs and nicks.
b) Exterior strain must not be transmitted to the
pump. The most common cause of trouble is forcing the piping to mate with the pump. It is recommended that flexible connectors be installed in the piping adjacent to the pump.
c) All threads should be checked for damage and
repaired if necessary. Lubricate all threaded connections with a suitable thread lubricant (an anti-galling compound).
4.5.3 Alignment methods
Ensure pump and driver are isolated
electrically and the half couplings are disconnected.
The alignment MUST be checked. Although the pump will have been aligned at the

4.4 Grouting

Where applicable, grout in the foundation bolts. After adding pipe work connections and re-checking the coupling alignment, the mounting plate/soleplate should then be grouted in accordance with good engineering practice. If in any doubt, please contact Flowserve service center for advice.
factory it is most likely that this alignment will have been disturbed during transportation or handling. If necessary, align the motor to the pump, not the pump to the motor.
The motor assembly may also have to be adjusted in the horizontal direction to line up the driver and shaft centers. Alignment screws are provided to lock the motor assembly in its final aligned position.

See section 5.3.2.1 for final coupling alignment for solid shaft.
Before bumping motor make sure that the coupling halves are not touching and that the driver can rotate freely without rotating the pump. Driver half coupling must be in proper position so the circular key will not come out.
4.5.4 Angular and parallel misalignment
Check the direction of pump rotation before the coupling is fully connected. The power supply to the driver to be connected only after the final alignment is complete.

a) Pumps with thick flanged non-spacer couplings
can be aligned by using a straight-edge across the outside diameters of the coupling hubs and measuring the gap between the machined faces using feeler gauges, measuring wedge or calipers.
b) When the electric motor has sleeve bearings, it is
necessary to ensure that the motor is aligned to run on its magnetic centerline.
Refer to the motor User Instructions for details.
A button (screwed into one of the shaft ends) is normally fitted between the motor and pump shaft ends to fix the axial position.
c)
Paralle l o ffse t
a) Angular Offset: The median lines of shaft
intersect halfway between the ends of the two shafts.
b) Axial Offset: Another offset is the displacement
of one or both of the shafts. A typical example is thermal expansion.
c) Parallel Offset: The median lines run parallel.
The maximum allowable parallel offset depends on the size of coupling and is indicated in the instruction manual of manufacturer of coupling.
For couplings with narrow flanges use a dial indicator as shown in the detail to check both parallel and angular alignment.
If the motor does not run in its magnetic center the resultant additional axial force may overload the pump thrust bearing.
If the pump is handling hot liquid, the alignment must be rechecked in warm condition of the unit. The alignment of the unit shall be checked again after 200 service hours.

4.6 Piping

Protective covers are fitted to the pipe connections to prevent foreign particles or objects entering the pump during transportation and installation. Ensure that these covers are removed from the pump before connecting pipes.
4.6.1 Pipe work velocities
In order to minimize friction losses and hydraulic noise in the pipe work it is good practice to choose pipe work that is one or two sizes larger than the pump suction and discharge. Typically, main pipe velocities should not exceed 2 m/s (6 ft/sec) on the suction and 3 m/s (9 ft/sec) on discharge.
Page 25 of 55 flowserve.com
Page 26
APKD DOUBLE-CASE, DOUBLE-SUCTION USER INSTRUCTIONS 26999903 07-13
Take into account the available NPSH that must be higher than the required NPSH of the pump.
Never use the pump as a support for
piping.
4.6.2 Maximum forces and moments allowed on APKD pump flanges (See table 4.6.2.1)
Maximum forces and moments allowed on the pump flanges vary with the pump size and type. To minimize these forces and moments that may, if excessive, cause misalignment, hot bearings, worn couplings, vibration and possible failure of the pump casing. The following points should be strictly followed.
Figure 4.11
a) Prevent excessive external pipe load. b) Never draw piping into place by applying force to
pump flange connections.
c) Do not mount expansion joints so that their force,
due to internal pressure, acts on the pump flange.
Ensure piping and fittings are flushed
before use.
Ensure that the piping arrangement has been provided to flush the pump before removal in cases of hazardous liquid pumps.

4.6.3 Auxiliary piping
4.6.3.1 Drains
Normal pump leaks and gland leakage to be drained through a separate piping arrangement or back into the suction/sump.
4.6.3.2 Pumps fitted with gland packing
The pumped liquid is allowed to flow through the gland packing at discharge pressure and drained out of the pump or re-circulated back into the suction.
4.6.3.3 Pumps fitted with mechanical seals
Auxiliary piping to circulate the flushing liquid back into the suction is required. In case of external clean source requirements for pump applications such as high temperature service, contaminated fluids, oxidizing fluids, a special piping plan to carry the clean liquid into the seal chamber with adequate pressure is required and several piping plans are available to suit the specific pump application.
4.6.3.4 Seal Injection
Seal injection into the condenser pump stuffing box is required for both the packed box and mechanical seal designs the injection is necessary to:
A) Lubricate either the packing or seal face during operation: and,
B) Provide a positive liquid seal at the stuffing box when the pump is idle and the condenser is under vacuum to prevent air leakage into the system
The piping plans and flush supply are to be selected based on the application and operating parameters.
4.6.4 Final checks
After connecting the piping to the pump, rotate the shaft several times by hand to ensure no pipe strain. If pipe strain exists, correct piping.

4.7 Electrical Connections

Electrical connections must be made by a qualified Electrician in accordance with relevant local national and international regulations.
It is important to be aware of the EUROPEAN
DIRECTIVE on potentially explosive areas where
compliance with IEC60079-14 is an additional requirement for making electrical connections.
It is important to be aware of the EUROPEAN DIRECTIVE on electromagnetic compatibility when wiring up and installing equipment on site. Attention must be paid to ensure that the techniques used during wiring/installation do not increase electromagnetic emissions or decrease the electromagnetic immunity of the equipment, wiring or any connected devices. If in any doubt contact Flowserve for advice.
The motor must be wired up in accordance with the motor manufacturer's instructions (normally supplied within the terminal box) including any temperature, earth leakage, current and other protective devices as appropriate. The identification nameplate should be checked to ensure the power supply is appropriate.
A device to provide emergency stopping must
be fitted. If not supplied pre-wired to the pump unit, the
controller/starter electrical details will also be supplied within the controller/starter.
For electrical details on pump sets with controlle rs see the separate wiring diagram.
See section 5.4, Direction of rotation before connecting the motor to the electrical supply.

4.8 Final shaft alignment check

After connecting piping to the pump, rotate the shaft several times by hand to ensure there is no binding and all parts are free. Recheck the coupling alignment, as previously described, to ensure no pipe strain. If pipe strain exists, correct piping.

4.9 Protection systems

The following protection systems are recommended particularly if the pump is installed in a potentially explosive area or is handling a hazardous liquid. If in doubt, consult Flowserve.
If there is any possibility of the system allowing the pump to run against a closed valve or below minimum continuous safe flow a protection device should be installed to ensure the temperature of the liquid does not rise to an unsafe level.
Page 27 of 55 flowserve.com
Page 28
APKD DOUBLE-CASE, DOUBLE-SUCTION USER INSTRUCTIONS 26999903 07-13
If there are any circumstances in which the system can allow the pump to run dry, or start up empty, a power monitor should be fitted to stop the pump or prevent it from being started. This is particularly relevant if the pump is handling a flammable liquid. If leakage of product from the pump or its associated sealing system can cause a hazard it is recommended that an appropriate leakage detection system is installed.
To prevent excessive surface temperatures at the bearings, it is recommended that temperature and/or vibration monitoring is done on a regular basis.
5 COMMISSIONING, START-UP,
OPERATION AND SHUTDOWN
These operations must be carried out by fully qualified personnel. Turn off power supply for safety while pump commissioning is in progress.

5.1 Pre-commissioning procedure

The gland is to be filled with grease and flush supply to be in place. Flush piping to be checked for leaks. Mechanical seals to be checked for leaks, flush flow and pressure.
a) For can pumps check all vent connections for
complete filling of th e p ump. T he v entin g procedure can take from 10 minutes up to 2 hours, depending on the kind of fluid.
b) Check the direction of rotation of the pump
(Coupling spacer dismantled). Should be counter clockwise when viewed from the driver end.
c) The pump rotor and the shaft seal must be in
correct axial position.
d) Check the readiness of all auxiliary systems
(seal sys., lubrication system etc.,) for startup.
e) All pipe work, including the internal and the
auxiliary pipe work, must be connected correctly and must be absolutely tight. Check the tightness of all connections of the auxiliary pipe work. The suction valve must be open, the discharge valve shall be closed or partially open as required.
f) Turn the pump by hand, if required with the help
of a lever, to check the free rotation of the rotor. The rotor must turn uniformly and noiselessly.
Some resistance may be felt due to the friction in the bearings and seals.
g) Check the readiness of the driver for startup.
Refer to the manual for the driver to be sure that all precautions are in place to energize the motor.

5.2 Pump lubricants

Other than the stuffing box lubrication, mechanical seal and/or lineshaft lubrication, the pump will not require further periodic lubrication. On water pumps, the suction bearing on the bowl assembly should be repacked when required. If the pump will be started after a longer storage period, the bearings should be first flushed and cleaned by using a suitable cleaning agent. It is not necessary to remove the oil sprayed for short or long-term storage as this will mix up thoroughly with the lubrication oil.
Re-checking the motor lubrication should be in accordance with the motor manufacturer’s user instructions supplied separately with the pump.
5.2.1 Open lineshaft lubrication
Open lineshaft bearings are lubricated by the pumped fluid on short-coupled units less than 15 m (50 ft) long and will usually not require pre or post­lubrication. Care is to be taken to ensure that the gland or seal is supplied with the required flush flow.
All open lineshaft pumps where the static water level is more than 15 m (50 ft) below the discharge head should be adequately pre-lubricated before starting the pump.

5.3 Impeller adjustment

Proper impeller adjustment positions the impeller inside the bowl assembly for maximum performance. The impellers must be raised slightly to prevent them from dragging on the bowls, but not raised too high so as to adversely affect hydraulic performance.
The impeller must be down against the bowl seat when starting impeller adjustment. When pumps are subjected to suction pressure, the pressure acting against the shaft tends to raise it. Make sure the shaft is down when starting to adjust the impellers.
5.3.1 Impeller axial clearance setting
a) Install indicator bracket on pump stuffing box
extension [348] and arrange indicator so that tip is located against lower hub face of the pump half coupling [44]. Determine that the
Page 28 of 55 flowserve.com
Page 29
APKD DOUBLE-CASE, DOUBLE-SUCTION USER INSTRUCTIONS 26999903 07-13
pump rotor is in the full down position and set the dial indicator at "ZERO".
b) Determine that the adjusting nut [66A] is in its
full down position. With the pump rotor in the full down position, raise the shaft (by jacking) to the upper limit of its travel. Measure the total vertical rotor travel by use of the dial indicator. Divide the total vertical measurement in half and record this number.
c) With the pump rotor in the full down position
again, reset the dial Indicator at "ZERO". Turn the adjusting nut [66A] until its upper face contacts the face of the coupling spacer [314].
d) Place a scale against the side face of the
adjusting nut [66A] to measure the distance that the adjusting nut moves downward as it is backed-off from the coupling spacer [314]. Turn the adjusting nut [66A] until the distance it has moved away from the coupling spacer [314] equals one half of the total vertical rotor travel, computed and recorded in Step 2 above.
If the coupling bolt holes do not line up when the adjusting nut [66A] has been backed-off the desired distance from coupling spacer [314], continue turning the adjusting nut counter­clockwise to reach the nearest bolt hole.
5.3.2 Impeller adjustment for a solid shaft
driver
Impeller adjustment when using solid shaft drivers is accomplished in the adjustable flanged coupling located below the driver.
5.3.2.1 Adjusting adjustable flanged coupling
a) Assemble coupling on pump shaft and driver
shaft (if not installed earlier). b) Check motor direction of rotation. c) Check and write down Flowserve
recommended impeller setting for final
adjustment. d) Pump to motor alignment and final coupling
Mount two magnetic indicator bases on the
discharge head at 90 degrees to each other
Set the indicator tips on the shaft just above
the seal and at 90 degrees to each other. (Usually parallel and perpendicular to the discharge nozzle) push the shaft (parallel to discharge) back and forth (without bending shaft)
Note and record the minimum and maximum
indicator readings. Do the same procedure at 90 degrees to the discharge
Set the shaft in the center of the maximum
and minimum indicator readings both
directions. If the shaft will not stay in this position, use small wooden wedges between the shaft and seal bolts to hold the shaft. The indicators can now be removed

(For pumps using jackscrews for motor go to step f).
e) Mount the magnetic base on the drive half
coupling (a band clamp may be necessary to hold base due to limited space). Position the tip of the indicator on the pump shaft just above the seal. Slowly rotate the driver shaft.

Note and record the T.I.R. reading. If this
reading is more than 0.25 mm (0.010 in.) for WA
and WSA couplings or 0.15 mm (0.006 in.) for
PA and PSA couplings, unbolt the drive and
reposition the driver in the direction required to
reduce the T.I.R. to within the allowable limits.
If a register fit is used for alignment, driver will be able to be moved only a few thousandths of an inch. If enough movement is not obtainable then the male register can be filed to obtain acceptable T.I.R. readings (Go to step g).
f) On pumps using jackscrews for motor
alignment, mount the dial indicator base on the O.D. of the motor half coupling. Set the indicator on the shaft, position the dial to zero being careful that the indicator is in direct line with one of the jackscrews. Record this reading then rotate the motor shaft and indicator 180 degrees.
Record this reading being careful to note plus or minus values. Take the difference of the two readings and using the jackscrews move the motor one half of the difference. Repeat this step until the T.I.R. reading is a maximum of
0.05 mm (0.002 in.). Then repeat this step for the set of jackscrews
located 90 degrees to the first set. Once all readings are within 0.05 mm (0.002 in.) tighten motor bolts and check for any movement in readings.
g) Set the impeller setting gap between the
adjusting nut and the driver portion of the coupling. See impeller setting data supplied along with the pump. If this information is not found, contact Flowserve. Align the match marks on the pump half coupling with the driver half coupling. On pumps with enclosed impellers the match marks can be lined up by increasing the impeller gap until the marks are in line with the driver half coupling marks.
h) Using 2 bolts of the coupling, at 180 degrees to
each other, slowly raise pump half coupling until impellers are just lifted off the seat (This can be gauged by trying to turn shaft by hand. At the point the impellers are lifted the pump will turn). Be sure to lift both sides evenly.
i) Measure the resultant gap between the motor
half coupling and the adjusting nut.
j) Find the difference between the original gap and
the new gap. Add this difference to the original gap and reset the adjusting nut.
k) Bolt the coupling together and tighten bolts by
tightening opposite sides.
l) Remove wooden wedges, if used. Mount
magnetic base on pump and set the tip of indicator on the shaft just above the seal. Slowly rotate the shaft and note the T.I.R. reading.
Unless otherwise specified, the allowable T.I.R. readings are:
WA and WSA couplings 0.10 mm (0.004 in.)  PA and PSA couplings 0.05 mm (0.002 in.)
If the reading is larger than the allowable values specified above, unbolt the pump and rotate the driver portion of the coupling to different hole and repeat steps (h) and (i) until acceptable readings are obtained.
m) If a mechanical seal is used, adjust the
mechanical seal at this time.

5.4 Direction of rotation

Ensure the pump is given the same rotation as specified or as marked on the pump/driver. Please contact Flowserve representative, if you have any questions before the startup.
To avoid dry running the pump must either be filled with liquid or have the flexible coupling disconnected before the driver is switched on.
If maintenance work has been carried out to the site's electricity supply, the direction of rotation should be re-checked as above in case the supply phasing has been altered.

5.5 Guarding

Guarding is supplied fitted to the pump set. Fasteners for guards must remain captive in the guard to comply with the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. When releasing guards, the fasteners must be unscrewed in an appropriate way to ensure that the fasteners remain captive. Whenever guarding is removed or disturbed ensur e that all the protective guards are securely refitted prior to start-up
Page 30 of 55 flowserve.com

APKD DOUBLE-CASE, DOUBLE-SUCTION USER INSTRUCTIONS 26999903 07-13
Machinery to be protected at all times by Flowserve provided safety guards or per applicable local or national standard. Compliance is mandatory for some regions of the world and in explosive environments.
5.6 Priming and auxiliary supplies
Ensure electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, sealant and lubrication systems (as applicable) are connected and operational.
Ensure the inlet pipe and pump casing are completely full of liquid before starting continuous duty operation.

5.7 Starting the pump

Ensure flushing and/or cooling/
heating liquid supplies are turned ON before starting the pump.
a) CLOSE the outlet valve (or partially open in
some cases). b) OPEN all inlet valve. c) Prime the pump & check lubrication system in
operation (check the liquid level).
d) e) Check the motor connections.
f)
5.7.1 Pre-starting checks

rotation? If not, the pump must be disconnected from the driver at the coupling before checking. The electric motor must rotate counter-clockwise when looking down on the top of the driver.
Do not overfill the grease cavity. Over greasing can lead to failure of the thrust bearing.
e) Check that all piping connections are tight. f) Check all foundation bolts for tightness. g) Check all bolting connections for tightness
(coupling bolts, mechanical seal gland bolts, driver bolts etc).
h) Make sure the mechanical seal is properly
adjusted and locked into place. Ensure that all seal spacers are in the running position prior to operation.
i) All guards must be secured in position prior to
pump startup to prevent possible contact with rotating parts. To ensure proper alignment three items are very important during installation and they are:
All machined mating surfaces (such as the
mating faces of the pump and motor) must be clean and free from burrs and nicks.These surfaces should be cleaned thoroughly with a scraper, wire brush and emery cloth if necessary and all nicks or burrs removed with a fine file
Exterior strain must not be transmitted to the
pump. The most common cause of trouble in this respect is forcing the piping to mate with the pump. It is recommended that flexible connectors be installed in the piping adjacent to the pump.
All threads should be checked for damage
and repaired if necessary. If filing is necessary, remove the part from the pump if possible, or arrange to catch all the filings so they do not fall onto other parts of the pump. Clean all threads with a wire brush and approved cleaning solvent, ends of shafts must be cleaned and any burrs removed since alignment depends on the shaft ends butting squarely. Lubricate all threaded connections with a suitable approved thread lubricant (an approved anti-galling compound should be used on stainless mating threads)
j) On pumps equipped with mechanical seals,
clean fluid should be put into the seal chamber. With pumps under suction pressure, this can be accomplished by bleeding all air and vapor out of the seal chamber and allowing the fluid to enter. With pumps not under suction pressure, the seal chamber should be flushed liberally with clean fluid to provide initial lubrication. Make sure the mechanical seal is properly adjusted and locked into place. Insure that all seal spacers are removed prior to operation.

After initial startup, pre-lubrication of the mechanical seal will usually not be required as enough liquid will remain in the seal chamber for subsequent startup lubrication.
tightened about one half turn at a time at 20 to 30 minute intervals to allow the packing to "run-in". Under proper operation, a packing set will last a long time. Occasionally a new ring of packing will need to be added to keep the box full.
After adding two or three rings of packing, or when proper adjustment cannot be achieved, the stuffing box should be cleaned completely of all old packing and re-packed.
5.7.3 Open shaft lubrication before startup
Open lineshaft bearings are lubricated by the pumped fluid on short-coupled units less than 15 m (50 ft) long and usually do not require pre- or post­lubrication.
5.7.4 Initial Starting
a) If the discharge line has a valve in it, it should
be partially open for initial starting. The discharge valve is intended to add sufficient system resistance to the pump. Failure to maintain pump flow rates within the limits of the pump and motor could result in severe damage.
b) Start the pump and observe the operation. If
there is any difficulty, excess noise or vibration, stop the pump immediately and refer to the Trouble Shooting Chart (section 7.0) to determine the probable cause.
A screen guard is furnished with all pumps having a two-piece headshaft or an adjustable flanged coupling. This screen must be secured in place prior to pump startup to prevent possible contact with rotating parts. Typical arrangement is shown in section 5.7.1.1.
5.7.2 Stuffing box adjustment
On the initial starting it is very important that the packing not be tightened excessively. New packing must be run in properly to prevent damage to the shaft and shortening of the packing life.
The stuffing box must be allowed to leak for proper operation. The proper amount of leakage can be determined by checking the temperature of the leakage, this should be cool or just lukewarm - NOT HOT - usually 40 to 60 drops per minute will be adequate.
When adjusting the packing gland, bring both nuts down evenly and in small steps until the leakage is reduced as required. The nuts should only be
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 breath toxic vapors. Do not allow sparking, flames or hot surfaces in the vicinity of the equipment.
Ensure that the unit is vented of all trapped
vapor
Open the discharge valve as desired to operate
the unit at its design conditions
Check complete pump and driver for leaks,
loose connections, or improper operation
If possible, the pump should be left running for approximately one half hour on the initial startup, this will allow the bearings, packing or seals, and other parts to "run-in" and reduce the possibility of trouble on future starts.
If abrasives or debris are present, upon startup, the pump should be allowed to run

Page 33
APKD DOUBLE-CASE, DOUBLE-SUCTION USER INSTRUCTIONS 26999903 07-13
until the pumpage is clean. Stopping the pump when handling large amounts of abrasives (as is sometimes present on initial starting) may lock the pump and cause more damage than the pump is allowed to continue operation.
Every effort should be made to keep abrasives out of lines, sump, etc. so that abrasives will not enter the pump.

5.8.2 Pumps fitted with packed glands
If the pump has a packed gland, there must be some leakage from the gland. Gland nuts should initially be finger-tight only. Leakage should take place soon after the stuffing box is pressurized.
The gland must be adjusted evenly to give visible leakage and concentric alignment of the gland ring to avoid excess temperature. If no leakage takes place, the packing will begin to overheat.
If overheating takes place, the pump should be stopped and allowed to cool before being re­started. When the pump is re-started, check to ensure leakage is taking place at the packing gland.
If hot liquids are being pumped it may be necessary to loosen the gland nuts to achieve leakage.
The pump should be run for 30 minutes with steady leakage and the gland nuts tightened by 10 degrees at a time until leakage is reduced to an acceptable level, normally a minimum of 40-60 drops per minute is required.
Care must be taken when adjusting the gland on an operating pump. Safety gloves are essential. Loose clothing must not be worn to avoid being caught by the pump shaft. Shaft guards must be replaced after the gland adjustment is complete.
Never run gland packing dry, even
for a short time.
5.8.3 Pumps fitted with mechanical seal
Mechanical seals require no adjustment. Any slight initial leakage will stop when the seal is run in.
Before pumping dirty liquids, it is advisable, if possible, to run in the pump mechanical seal using clean liquid to safeguard the seal face.
External flush or quench should be started before the pump is run and allowed to flow for a period after the pump has stopped.
Never run a mechanical seal dry, even for a short time.
5.8.4 Pump and motor bearing temperature
If the pumps are working in a potentially explosive atmosphere, temperature or vibration monitoring at the bearings is recommended.
If pump bearing temperatures (such as thrust bearings) are to be monitored it is essential that a benchmark temperature is recorded at the commissioning stage and after the bearing temperature has stabilized. Record the bearing temperature (t) and the
ambient temperature (ta)
Estimate the likely maximum ambient
temperature (tb)
Set the alarm at (t+tb-ta+5) C [(t+tb-ta+10) F]
and the trip at 100 C (212 F) for oil lubrication and 105 C (220 F) for grease lubrication
It is important, particularly with grease lubrication, to keep a close watch on the bearing temperatures. After startup the temperature rise should be gradual, reaching a maximum after approximately
1.5 to 2 hours. This temperature rise should then remain constant or marginally reduce with time.

5.9 Stopping and shutdown

a) Close the outlet valve, but ensure that the
pump runs in this condition for no more than a
few seconds. b) Stop the pump. c) Switch off flushing and/or cooling/heating liquid
supplies at a time appropriate to the process.
For prolonged shutdowns and especially when ambient temperatures are likely to drop below freezing point, the pump and any cooling and flushing arrangements must be drai ned or otherwise protected.
5.10 Hydraulic mechanical and electrical
duty
This product has been supplied to meet the performance specifications of your purchase order, however it is understood that du ring the l ife of the product these may change. The following notes may help the user decide how to evaluate th e impli cations of any change. If in doubt contact your nearest Flowserve office.

Page 35
APKD DOUBLE-CASE, DOUBLE-SUCTION USER INSTRUCTIONS 26999903 07-13
5.10.1 Specific gravity (SG)
Pump capacity and total head in metres (feet) do not change with SG, however pressure displayed on a pressure gauge is directly proportional to SG. Power absorbed is also directly proportional to SG. It is therefore important to check that any change in SG will not overload the pump driver or over­pressurize the pump.
5.10.2 Viscosity
For a given flow rate the total head reduces with increased viscosity and increases with reduced viscosity. Also for a given flow rate the power absorbed increases with increased viscosity, and reduces with reduced viscosity. It is important that checks are made with your nearest Flowserve office if changes in viscosity are planned.
5.10.3 Pump speed
Changing pump speed effects flow, total head, power absorbed, NPSH

6 MAINTENANCE

6.1 General

It is the plant operator's responsibility to ensure that all maintenance, inspection and assembly work is carried out by authorized and qualified personnel who have adequately familiarized themselves with the subject matter by studying this manual in detail. (See also section 1.6.)
Any work on the machine must be performed when it is at a standstill. It is imperative that the procedure for shutting down the machine is followed, as described in section 5.9.
Guard fasteners must remain captive during dismantling of guards as described in section 5.4
On completion of work all guards and safety devices must be re-installed and made operative again.
Before restarting the machine, the relevant instructions listed in section 5, Commissioning, start up, operation and shut down must be observed.
Oil and grease leaks may make the ground slippery. Machine maintenance must always begin and finish by cleaning the ground and the exterior of the machine.
If platforms, stairs and guard rails are required for maintenance, they must be placed for easy access to areas where maintenance and inspection are to be carried out. The positioning of these accessories must not limit access or hinder the lifting of the part to be serviced.
When air or compressed inert gas is used in the maintenance process, the operator and anyone in the vicinity must be careful and have the appropriate protection.
Do not spray air or compressed inert gas on skin. Do not direct an air or gas jet towards other people. Never use air or compressed inert gas to clean
clothes. Before working on the pump, take measures to
prevent an uncontrolled start. Put a warning board
Page 35 of 55 flowserve.com
Page 36
APKD DOUBLE-CASE, DOUBLE-SUCTION USER INSTRUCTIONS 26999903 07-13
on the starting device with the words: "Machine under repair: do not start".
With electric drive equipment, lock the main switch open and withdraw any fuses. Put a warning board on the fuse box or main switch with the words: "Machine under repair: do not connect".
Never clean equipment with inflammable solvents or carbon tetrachloride. Protect yourself against toxic fumes when using cleaning agents.

6.2 Maintenance schedule

It is recommended that a maintenance plan and schedule is adopted, in line with these User Instructions, to include the following:
a) Any auxiliary systems installed must be
monitored, if necessary, to ensure they function correctly.
b) Gland packings must be adjusted correctly to
give visible leakage and concentric alignment of the gland follower to prevent excessive temperature of the packing or follower.
c) Check for any leaks from gaskets and seals.
The correct functioning of the shaft seal must be checked regularly.
d) Check bearing lubricant level, and if the hours
run show a lubricant change is required.
e) Check that the duty condition is in the safe
operating range for the pump.
f) Check vibration, noise level and surface
temperature at the bearings to confirm satisfactory operation.
g) Check dirt and dust is removed from areas
around close clearances, bearing housings and motors.
h) Check coupling alignment and re-align if
necessary.
Our specialist service personnel can help with preventative maintenance records and provide condition monitoring for temperature and vibration to identify the onset of potential problems.
If any problems are found the following sequence of actions should take place: a) Refer to section 8, Faults; causes and
remedies, for fault diagnosis.
b) Ensure equipment complies with the
recommendations in this manual.
c) Contact Flowserve if the problem persists.
6.2.1 Routine Inspection (daily/weekly)
The following checks should be made and the appropriate action taken to remedy any deviations. a) Check operating behavior; ensure noise,
vibration and bearing temperatures are normal.
b) Check that there are no abnormal fluid or
lubricant leaks (static and dynamic seals) and that any sealant systems (if fitted) are full and operating normally.
c) Check that shaft seal leaks are within
acceptable limits.
d) Check the level and condition of lubrication oil.
On grease lubricated pumps, check running hours since last recharge of grease or complete grease change.
e) Check any auxiliary supplies eg.
heating/cooling (if fitted) are operating correctly.
f) Refer to the manuals of any associated
equipment if routine checks needed.
6.2.2 Periodic Inspection (every 6 Month)
a)
security of attachment and corrosion.
b) Check pump operation hours to determine if
bearing lubricant shall be changed.
c) The coupling should be checked for correct
alignment and worn driving elements.
Check foundation bolts for
Refer to the manuals of any associated
equipment for periodic checks needed.
6.2.3 Re-lubrication
6.2.3.1 Pump lubrication
In general, VTPs that are product lubricated will not require further periodic lubrication. Stuffing box and mechanical seal needs flow of flush. Enclosed line shaft pumps have to be provided with the required oil quantity for an oil lubed system and the injection lube flow at the required pressure for injection lubed systems.
6.2.3.2 Driver lubrication
Refer to driver manufacturer’s User
Instructions supplied with the pump.
6.2.4 Impeller re-adjustment
Ordinarily, impellers will not require re-adjustment if properly set at initial installation.
Page 36 of 55 flowserve.com
Page 37
APKD DOUBLE-CASE, DOUBLE-SUCTION USER INSTRUCTIONS 26999903 07-13
All adjustments of the impellers will change the seal setting, therefore, the seal must be loosened from the shaft until the adjustment is completed and then reset.
6.2.5 Maintenance of the stuffing box
6.2.5.1 General
Maintenance of the stuffing box will consist of greasing the box when required, tightening the packing gland occasionally as the leakage becomes excessive, and installing new packing rings or sets as required.
6.2.5.2 Greasing the stuffing box
Under ordinary operation, once-a-month greasing of the stuffing box will be adequate. A high quality industrial grade # 2 grease is recommended; see the table below for typical brands and types.
Manufacturer Grease types
Exxon Unirex N2 BP Energrease LS2 Mobil Mobilux 2 Shell Alvania No.2 Texaco Multitak 20 Esso Beacon 2
6.2.5.3 Replacing packing
Remove gland and all old packing. If the box contains a lantern ring, remove this and all packing below it using two long threaded machine screws.
Inspect shaft or sleeve for score marks or rough spots. Be sure by-pass holes (if supplied) are not plugged. Repair or replace badly worn shaft or sleeve.
If wear is minor dress down until smooth and concentric. Clean box bore.
Oil inside and outside of replacement rings lightly and install in box, staggering joints 90 degrees. Be sure to replace lantern ring in proper position when used.
Replace gland and tighten nuts finger tight. The packing gland must never be tightened to the point where leakage from the packing is stopped.
A small amount of leakage is required for packing lubrication.
Packing ring sizes vary with the shaft diameter. Packing ring size information are as follows.

6.2.5.4 Startup with new packing
Check to see that the by-pass line (if used) is connected and the packing gland is loose. Start pump and allow it to run for 20 to 30 minutes. Do not tighten the gland during this "run-in" period even if leakage is excessive. Should the new packing cause excessive heating during "run-in", flush the shaft and packing box area with cold water or shut the pump down and allow to cool.
For all repair instructions please call Flowserve representative or customer service with the order no. and unit details for specific repair instruction literature.
All repair work to be carried out by trained and authorized personnel only. Flowserve’s written permission may be required for any disassembly/repair of the pump that is still under warranty.

6.9 Examination of parts

Used parts must be inspected before assembly to ensure the pump will subsequently run properly. In particular, fault diagnosis is essential to enhance pump and plant reliability.
Before proceeding with assembly, thoroughly clean all bolts, nuts, threaded connections and mating faces. Clean up any burrs with a file or emery cloth. Before dismantling the pump for overhaul, ensure genuine Flowserve replacement parts are available. Refer to sectional drawings for part numbers and identification.
Cleanliness and proper lubrication are required to guarantee ease of re-assembly and proper pump operation.
6.9.1 Examination of shaft/s
Check the shafts for straightness, pitting and wear. Remove all burrs or nicks. Shaft damage is usually best corrected by replacing the shaft.
The shaft must be straight to within 0.127 mm (0.005 in.) total indicator reading. The detail below shows the recommended method for checking shaft straightness. If the shaft is not straight, it must be straightened or replaced. If the deflection is gradual over a considerable len gth, the shaft can usually be straightened by supporting on two blocks straddling the crooked section and applying pressure to the high side to deflect the shaft in the opposite direction. If the shaft has a sharp crook (dog-leg), it is recommended that the shaft be replaced since the shaft will not always remain straight, even if satisfactorily straightened.
Figure 6.1
DIAL INDICATOR
ROLLERS
SHAFT
Even if the shaft is new or has been previously straightened, it is recommended that the shaft be re-checked at this point to ensure damage has not occurred in transit or handling.
6.9.2 Examination of bearings
Check all bearings for total clearance over the shaft. It is recommended that all bearings indicating visual wear be replaced. In addition, any bearings whose running clearance exceeds "As New" tolerances by more than 50% should be replaced (see table
6.8.2.1).
Rubber bearings should always be
replaced when servicing a pump.

Bronze, epoxy, carbon and hard-backed rubber bearings are pressed into their respective bores. They can either be pressed out or machined on the inside diameter until the wall is thin enough to collapse.
Some rubber bearings are the snap-in or glue-in type. These can be removed by prying inward on the outside of the bearing to collapse it.
If the bearing bore of the housing is heavily scarred or corroded, the part should be replaced or reworked to provide a true bore for the bearing.
Replacement bearings are designed to be pressed into housings so bores will shrink to "as new" tolerances. Measure the bore of bearings after pressing and ream as necessary to assure "as new" tolerances.
6.9.3 Inspection of bowl assembly
condition or strength of all parts such as cap screws, bowls and bowl threads must be carefully checked.
When attempting to rework any part, extreme care must be taken to maintain alignment of mating parts and ensure “as new” tolerances.
The inspection, disassembly of bowl assembly requires expertise and tools to perform the job correctly. It is recommended to seek the services of Flowserve trained technicians to inspect and repair bowl assemblies.
6.9.3.1 Inspection of enclosed impellers
a) Clear all passageways and check for signs of
damage from abrasion or corrosion. Replace an impeller that shows signs of excessive wear.
b) Check impeller running clearances against “as
new” tolerances listed in the section 6.8.4. If the clearances exceed the maximum tolerances shown by more than 50%, the new wear rings should be installed to obtain correct tolerances.
c) If the original unit was furnished with bowl and
impeller wear rings, they may be pressed or machined off.
Please note that certain repairs may require special skills and it is recommended to contact Flowserve authorized service center before attempting any such repairs.
See wear ring tolerance chart in section 6.8.4. If the impeller has a balance ring on the topside
(side opposite pumping vanes) running clearances must be checked.
Please see section 6.9.4 for wearing ring tolerance chart for enclosed impellers.

been in service for several years, the physical
