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 instruction in the assembly process.
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
help 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 fluoro-
elastomers (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.
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.
NEVER APPLY HEAT TO REMOVE IMPELLER
Trapped lubricant or vapour could cause an explosion.
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.
Page 5 of 40 flowserve.com
WPG and WPH USER INSTRUCTIONS ENGLISH 26999969 10-12
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 avoid exposure to the liquid 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.
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 PART 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 or 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
INLET VALVES TO BE FULLY OPEN
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.
DO NOT RUN THE PUMP AT
ABNORMALLY HIGH OR LOW FLOW RATES
Operating at a flow rate higher than normal or at a flow
rate with no back pressure on the pump may overload
the motor and cause cavitation. Low flow rates may
cause a reduction in pump/bearing life, overheating of
the pump, instability and cavitation/vibration.
1.6.4 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 instructions for pumps and pump units
when installed in potentially explosive atmospheres
must be followed to help ensure explosion protection.
For ATEX, both electrical and non-electrical equipment
must meet the requirements of European Directive
94/9/EC. Always observe the regional legal Ex
requirements eg Ex electrical items outside the EU may
be required certified to other than ATEX eg IECEx, UL.
1.6.4.1 Scope of compliance
Use equipment only in the zone for which it is
appropriate. Always check that the driver, drive
coupling assembly, seal and pump equipment are
suitably rated and/or certified for the classification of the
specific atmosphere in which they are to be installed.
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 effects in the motor and so,
for pump 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.

1.6.4.3 Avoiding excessive surface temperatures
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 ATEX temperature class and must not exceed the
values in the table that follows:
Maximum permitted liquid temperature for pumps
* The table only takes the ATEX temperature class into consideration.
Pump design or material, as well as component design or material,
may further limit the maximum working temperature of the liquid.
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 operator is responsible to ensure that the
specified maximum liquid temperature is not
exceeded.
Temperature classification “Tx” is used when the liquid
temperature varies and when the pump is required to be
used in differently classified potentially explosive
atmospheres. In this case the user is responsible for
ensuring that the pump surface temperature does not
exceed that permitted in its actual installed location.
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.
Avoid mechanical, hydraulic or electrical overload by
using motor overload trips, temperature monitors 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.
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.
1.6.4.4 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 of 40 flowserve.com
WPG and WPH USER INSTRUCTIONS ENGLISH 26999969 10-12
1.6.4.5 Preventing sparks
To prevent a potential hazard from mechanical
contact, the coupling guard must be non-sparking
and anti-static for Category 2.
To avoid the potential hazard from random induced
current generating a spark, the baseplate must be
properly grounded.
Avoid electrostatic charge: do not rub non-metallic
surfaces with a dry cloth; ensure cloth is damp.
For ATEX the coupling must be selected to comply
with 94/9/EC. Correct coupling alignment must be
maintained.
1.6.4.6 Additional requirement for metallic pumps
on non-metallic baseplates
When metallic components are fitted on a nonmetallic baseplate they must be individually earthed.
1.6.4.7 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 and associated
piping due to closing of suction and discharge valves,
which could cause dangerous excessive pressures to
occur if there is heat input to the liquid. This can 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
1.6.4.8 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.)
1.7 Nameplate and safety labels
1.7.1 Nameplate

1.8.2 Ecodesign
EU regulation 547/2012 of the Directive
2009/125/EC, for the minimum efficiency of defined
classes of water pumps requires that products must
show their Minimum Efficiency Index (MEI) value.
The EU benchmark MEI ≥ 0.70. Also product
information must be available to users.
Performance curves will have been provided with the
quotation or order or are available at flowserve.com.
The efficiency of a pump with trimmed impeller is
usually lower than that of a pump with the full impeller
diameter. Trimming of the impeller will adapt the
pump to a fixed duty point, leading to reduced energy
consumption. The minimum efficiency index (MEI) is
based on the full impeller diameter.
The operation of this water pump with variable duty
points may be more efficient and economic when
controlled by, for example, by the use of a variable
speed drive that matches the pump duty to the system.
Information on benchmark efficiency is available at;
www.europump.org/efficiencycharts
1.9 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.
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.
Note: for 1 180 and 960 r/min reduce 1 450 r/min values by 2 dBA. For 880 and 720 r/min reduce 1 450 r/min values by 3 dBA.
Page 9 of 40 flowserve.com
WPG and WPH USER INSTRUCTIONS ENGLISH 26999969 10-12
Similarly the motor noise assumed in the “pump and
motor” noise is that typically expected from standard
and high efficiency motors when on load directly 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 Flowserve
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 LpA at 1 m
(3.3 ft) from the machine, for “free field conditions
over a reflecting plane”.
For estimating sound power level LWA (re 1 pW) then
add 14 dBA to the sound pressure value.
2 TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
2.1 Consignment receipt and unpacking
Immediately after receipt of the equipment it must be
checked against the delivery/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 must be
received in writing within one month of receipt of the
equipment. Later claims cannot be accepted.
Check any crate, boxes or wrappings for any
accessories or spare parts that may be packed
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.
No specific lifting points are provided
for this complete machine (unless so specified). Any
lifting points that can be seen are provided only for
dismantling parts for servicing. Slings, ropes and
other lifting gear should be positioned where they
cannot slip and where a balanced lift is obtained.
The angle between sling or ropes used for lifting must
not exceed 60°.
Before lifting the driver alone, refer to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
The driver weight is recorded on its nameplate.
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 pump at intervals to prevent
brinelling of the bearings and the seal faces, if fitted,
from sticking.
The pump may be stored as above for up to 6
months. Consult Flowserve for preservative actions
when a longer storage period is needed.
2.5 Recycling and end of product life
At the end of the service life of the product or its
parts, the relevant materials and parts should be
recycled or disposed of using an environmentally
acceptable method and local requirements. If the
product contains substances that are harmful to the
environment, these should be removed and disposed
of in accordance with current regulations. This also
includes the liquids and or gases that may be used in
the "seal system" or other utilities.
Make sure that hazardous substances or toxic
fluids are disposed of safely and that the correct
personal protective equipment is used. The safety
specifications must be in accordance with the current
regulations at all times.

4 INSTALLATION
Equipment operated in hazardous locations
must comply with the relevant explosion protection
regulations. See section 1.6.4, Products used in
potentially explosive atmospheres.
4.1 Location
The pump should be located to allow room for access,
ventilation, maintenance and inspection with ample
headroom for lifting and should be as close as
practicable to the supply of liquid to be pumped. Refer
to the general arrangement drawing for the pump set.
4.2 Part assemblies
These pumps are not normally supplied in part
assemblies but special accessories such as loose
orifice plates are supplied loose. Ensure these are
incorporated in the final installation.
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 and 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.
Ensure the following are met:
a) The baseplate should be mounted onto a firm
foundation, either an appropriate thickness of
quality concrete or sturdy steel framework. (It
should NOT be distorted or pulled down onto the
surface of the foundation, but should be
supported to maintain the original alignment.)
b) Install the baseplate onto packing pieces evenly
spaced and adjacent to foundation bolts.
4.4 Grouting
Where applicable, grout in the foundation bolts.
After adding pipework connections and rechecking the
coupling alignment, the baseplate should then be
grouted in accordance with good engineering practice.
Fabricated steel, cast iron and epoxy baseplates can
be filled with grout. Folded steel baseplates should be
grouted to locate their packing pieces. If in any doubt,
please contact your nearest service centre for advice.
Grouting provides solid contact between the pump unit
and foundation, prevents lateral movement of vibrating
equipment and dampens resonant vibrations.
Foundation bolts should only be fully tightened when
the grout has cured.
4.5 Alignment of couplings
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 andthe alignment checked immediately.
Motor and pump centre line height adjustment:
c) Level with shims between baseplate and packing
pieces.
d) The pump and driver have been aligned before
dispatch however the alignment of pump and motor
half coupling must be checked. If this is incorrect, it
indicates that the baseplate has become twisted
and should be corrected by re-shimming
e) If not supplied, guarding shall be fitted as necessary
to meet the requirements of ISO 12100 and EN953.
Page 12 of 40 flowserve.com
WPG and WPH USER INSTRUCTIONS ENGLISH 26999969 10-12
Graph based on the assumptions that:
1) Operating temperature rise of the motor frame is
50 C.
2) Packing piece/motor stool is not affected.
Operation:
a) Enter graph at base to shaft centre line height
b) Read line for frame material
c) Set motor shaft and coupling LOW by figure on
left-hand side
4.5.2 Alignment methods
Pump and driver must be isolated
electrically and the half couplings disconnected.
The alignment MUST be checked.
Although the pump will have been aligned at the
factory, it is most likely that this alignment will have
been disturbed during transportation or handling.
Align the motor to the pump, not the pump to the
motor.
Alignment is achieved by adding or removing shims
from under the motor feet and also moving the motor
horizontally as required. In some cases, where the
alignment cannot be achieved, it will be necessary to
move the pump before recommencing the above
procedure.
For couplings with narrow flanges, use a dial indicator
gauge as shown. The alignment values are
maximums for continuous service.
When checking parallel alignment, the total indicator
read-out (TIR) shown is twice the value of the actual
shaft displacement.
4.5.3 Check for soft foot
This is a check to ensure that there is no undue
stress on the driver holding down bolts; due to non-
level baseplate or twisting. To check, remove all
shims and clean surfaces and tighten down driver to
the baseplate. Set a dial indicator as shown in sketch
and loosen off the holding down bolt while noting any
deflection reading on the dial test indicator - a
maximum of 0.05 mm (0.002 in.) is considered
acceptable but any more will have to be corrected by
adding shims. For example, if the dial test indicator
shows the foot lifting 0.15 mm (0.006 in.) then this is
the thickness of shim to be placed under that foot.
Tighten down and repeat the same procedure on all
other feet until all are within tolerance.
Complete piping as below and see sections 4.7,
Final shaft alignment check, up to and including section
5, Commissioning, startup, operation and shutdown,
before connecting driver and checking actual rotation.
4.6 Piping
Protective covers are fitted to the pipe
connections to prevent foreign bodies entering during
transportation and installation. Ensure that these
covers are removed from the pump before connecting
any pipes.
Permissible misalignment limits at working
temperature:
Parallel alignment
- 0.25 mm (0.010 in.) TIR maximum
Angular alignment
- 0.3 mm (0.012 in.) TIR maximum for
couplings not exceeding 100 mm (4 in.)
flange diameter
- 0.5 mm (0.020 in.) TIR maximum for couplings over 100 mm (4 in.) diameter
Page 13 of 40 flowserve.com
4.6.1 Suction and discharge pipework
Never use pump as a support for piping.
In order to minimize friction losses and hydraulic
noise in the pipework it is good practice to choose
pipework that is one or two sizes larger than the
pump suction and discharge. Typically main
pipework velocities should not exceed 2 m/s (6 ft/sec)
suction and 3 m/s (9 ft/sec) on the discharge.
WPG and WPH USER INSTRUCTIONS ENGLISH 26999969 10-12
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 the possible failure of the pump casing, the
following points should be strictly followed:
Prevent excessive external pipe load
Never draw piping into place by applying force to
pump flange connections
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 piping for hazardous liquids is arranged
to allow pump flushing before removal of the pump.
Take into account the available NPSH which must be
higher than the required NPSH of the pump.
4.6.2 Suction piping
a) The inlet pipe should be one or two sizes larger
than the pump inlet bore and pipe bends should
be as large a radius as possible.
b) On suction lift the piping should be inclined up
towards the pump inlet with eccentric reducers
incorporated to prevent air locks.
c) On positive suction, the inlet piping must have a
constant fall towards the pump.
d) The pipe next to the pump should be the same
diameter as the pump suction and have a
minimum of two pipe diameters of straight section
between the elbow and the pump inlet flange.
Where the NPSH margin is not large, it is
recommended that the pipe straight is 5 to 10
pipe diameter. (See section 10.3, Reference 1.)
Inlet strainers, when used, should have a net 'free
area' of at least three times the inlet pipe area.
e) Fitting isolation and non-return valves will allow
easier maintenance.
f) Never throttle pump on suction side and never
place a valve directly on the pump inlet nozzle.
4.6.3 Discharge piping
a) A non-return valve should be located in the
discharge pipework to protect the pump from
excessive back pressure and hence reverse
rotation when the unit is stopped.
b) Fitting an isolation valve will allow easier
maintenance.
4.6.4 Flange loads
The permissible flange loading is dependent on a
number of factors such as dimensions, flange rating,
pressure, temperature, material, pump configuration etc.
The recommendations contained in the section on
pipework connections should be followed to eliminate
these loads.
When requested the permissible flange loading will
have been supplied separately to the purchaser and
should be obtained and retained with this manual. If in
doubt contact Flowserve for information.
4.6.5 Auxiliary piping
The connections that are to be piped
up will have been fitted with protective metal or
plastic plugs which will need to be removed.
4.6.5.1 Pumps fitted with packed glands
a) When suction pressure is below ambient pressure
and differential head is less than 10 m, it may be
necessary to feed gland packing with liquid to
provide lubrication and prevent the ingress of air.
b) When pumping “dirty” liquids a clean liquid supply
to the gland is recommended.
4.6.5.2 Pumps fitted with mechanical seals
a) Single seals requiring re-circulation will normally
be provided with the auxiliary piping from pump
casing already fitted.
b) Seal housings/covers having an auxiliary quench
connection require connection to a suitable source
of liquid flow, low pressure steam or static
pressure from a header tank. Recommended
pressure is 0.35 bar (5 psi) or less.
c) Double seals require a barrier liquid between the
seals, compatible with the pumped liquid.
d) With back-to-back double seals, the barrier liquid
should be at a minimum pressure of 1 bar above
the maximum pressure on the pump side of the
inner seal. The barrier liquid pressure must not
exceed limitations of the seal on the atmospheric
side. For toxic service the barrier liquid supply and
discharge must be in a safe area.
e) Special seals may require modification to auxiliary
piping described above. Consult Flowserve if
unsure of correct method or arrangement.
f) For pumping hot liquids, to avoid seal damage, it is
recommended that any external flush/cooling
supply be continued after stopping the pump.
4.6.5.3 Pumps fitted with heating/cooling jackets
Connect the heating/cooling pipes from the site supply.
The top connection should be used as the outlet to
ensure complete filling/venting of the annulus.
Page 14 of 40 flowserve.com
WPG and WPH USER INSTRUCTIONS ENGLISH 26999969 10-12
4.6.6 Final checks
Check the torque of all bolts in the suction and
discharge pipework. Check also the torque of all
foundation bolts.
4.7 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.
4.8 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 controllers
see the separate wiring diagram.
See section 5.2, Direction of rotation,
before connecting the motor to the electrical supply.
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 any 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, install a protection
device to ensure the temperature of the liquid does
not rise to an unsafe level.
If there are any circumstances in which the system
can allow the pump to run dry, or start up empty, fit a
power monitor 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 install an
appropriate leakage detection system.
To prevent excessive surface temperatures at bearings
carry out temperature or vibration monitoring.
5 COMMISSIONING, START-UP,
OPERATION AND SHUTDOWN
These operations must be carried
out by fully qualified personnel.
5.1 Pre-commissioning procedure
5.1.1 Lubrication
Determine the mode of lubrication of the pump set,
eg grease, oil etc.
For oil lubricated pumps, fill the bearing
housing with correct grade of oil to the correct level, ie
sight glass orconstant level oiler bottle.
When fitted with a constant level oiler, the bearing
housing should be filled by unscrewing or hinging
back the transparent bottle and filling it with oil.
Watchdog oilers are self-setting and internally vent
balanced. Where an adjustable body Denco oiler is
fitted this should be set to the height shown in the
following diagram:

Grease lubricated pumps and electric motors are
supplied pre-greased.
Where the ambient temperature is very low special
lubricants are required. Where oil lubrication is
utilized and the ambient is less than -5 °C (23 °F)
ensure the oil’s pour point is at least 15 °C (27 °F)
below the ambient temperature or use oil class SAE
5W-50 or API-SJ and ensure the upper operating
range of the oil is then not exceeded. . IS0 VG 46 oil
The oil filled bottle should then be refitted so as to
return it to the upright position. Filling should be
repeated until oil remains visible within the bottle.
is generally selected for an initial lubrication
schedule.
Other drivers and gearboxes, if appropriate, should
be lubricated in accordance with their manuals.
5.2 Pump lubricants
5.2.1 Recommended oil lubricants
* Note that it normally takes 2 hours for bearing temperature to stabilize and the final temperature will depend on the ambient, r/min, pumpage
temperature and pump size. Also some oils have a greater viscosity index than the minimum acceptable of 95 (eg Mobil DTE13M) which
may extend the minimum temperature capability of the oil. Always check the grade capability where the ambient is less than -5 ºC (23 ºF).
†
Use LSC for oil mist. Oil parameters provide flash point >166 ºC (331 ºF), density >0.87 @ 15 ºC (59 ºF), pour point of -10 ºC (14 ºF) or lower.
Normal compounded oils CANNOT be used with oil mist as anti-foam additives need to be avoided. Most oils recommended for wet splash
lubrication contain foam inhibitors as well as antioxidants and anticorrosion additives, so they are unsuitable for oil mist. Some synthetic
lubricants may attack the Nitrile seals used in a regular bearing housing. The LSC LSO oils are recommended for oil mist applications.
5.2.2 Recommended grease lubricants
Page 16 of 40 flowserve.com
* NLGI 2 is an alternative grease and is not to be mixed with other
grades.
** Standard pre-packed grease for fitted antifriction bearings.
5.2.2.1 Food grade grease, when applicable:

NB The bearing sizes do not constitute a purchasing specification.
5.3 Direction of rotation
Serious damage can result if the
pump is started or run in the wrong direction of
rotation. Ensure the pump is given the same rotation
as the pump direction arrow.
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.
5.4 Guarding
Guarding is supplied fitted to the pump set.
In member countries of the EU and EFTA, it is a legal
requirement that fasteners for guards must remain
captive in the guard to comply with the Machinery
Directive 2006/42/EC. When releasing such guards,
the fasteners must be unscrewed in an appropriate
way to ensure that the fasteners remain captive.
Whenever guarding is removed or disturbed ensure
that all the protective guards are securely refitted
prior to start-up.
5.5 Priming and auxiliary supplies
5.5.1 Filling and priming
Ensure inlet pipe and pump casing is
completely full of liquid before starting continuous
duty operation.
Priming may be carried out with an ejector, vacuum
pump interceptor or other equipment, or by flooding
from the inlet source.
When in service, pumps using inlet pipes with foot
valves may be primed by passing liquid back from the
outlet pipe through the pump.
5.6 Starting the pump
a) Ensure flushing and/or cooling/
heating liquid supplies are turned ON, before
starting pump.
b) CLOSE the outlet valve.
c) OPEN all inlet valves.
d) Prime the pump.
e) Start motor and check the outlet pressure.
f) If the pressure is satisfactory, SLOWLY open the
outlet valve.
g) Do not run the pump against a
closed valve for more than 10 seconds.
h) If NO pressure, or LOW pressure, STOP the
pump. Refer to section 7, Faults; causes and remedies, for fault diagnosis.
5.7 Running the pump
5.7.1 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 pressurised.
If no leakage takes place stop the unit, take out the
packing and repack to avoid the packing overheating. If
overheating takes place the pump should be stopped
and allowed to cool. before being re-packing. When
the pump is re-started it should be checked to ensure
leakage is taking place at the packed gland.
If hot liquids are being pumped it may be necessary
to slacken the gland nuts to achieve leakage.
The pump should be run for ten minutes with steady
leakage and the gland nuts tightened by 10 degrees
at a time until leakage is reduced to an acceptable
level, normally 30 to 120 drops per minute. Bedding
in of the packing may take another 15 minutes.
5.7.2 Pumps fitted with mechanical seal
Mechanical seals require no adjustment. Any slight
initial leakage will stop when the seal is run in. Seals
will always have leakage emission from the boundary
film edge in operation.
Before pumping dirty liquids it is advisable, if possible,
to run the pump in using clean liquid to safeguard the
seal face.
For external flush or quench, this
should be started before the pump is run and allowed
to flow for a period after the pump has stopped.

5.7.3 Bearings
a) Close the outlet valve, but ensure
If the pumps are working in a potentially
explosive atmosphere monitor temperature and/or
vibration at the bearings.
If bearing temperatures are to be monitored it is
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.
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) ºC (t+tb-ta+10) ºF
and the trip at 100 ºC (212 ºF) for oil lubrication
and 105 ºC (220 ºF) for grease lubrication
It is important, to keep a check on bearing
temperatures. After start up the temperature rise
should be gradual, reaching a maximum after
approximately 1.5 to 2 hours. This temperature should
then remain constant or marginally reduce with time.
5.7.4 Normal vibration levels, alarm and trip
For guidance, pumps generally fall under a classification
for rigid support machines within the International
rotating machinery standards and the recommended
maximum levels below are based on those standards.
Alarm and trip values for installed pumps
should be based on the actual measurements (N) taken
on the pump in the fully commissioned as new condition.
Measuring vibration at regular intervals will then show
any deterioration in pump or system operating
conditions.
d) For prolonged shut-downs and
especially when ambient temperatures are likely
to drop below freezing point, the pump and any
cooling and flushing arrangements must be
drained or otherwise protected.
5.9 Hydraulic, mechanical and electrical
duty
This product has been supplied to meet the performance
specifications of your purchase order, however it is
understood that during the life of the product these may
change. The following notes may help the user decide
how to evaluate the implications of any change. If in
doubt contact your nearest Flowserve office.
5.9.1 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 over-pressurize
the pump.
5.9.2 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.
5.9.3 Pump speed
5.7.5 Stop/start frequency
Pump sets are normally suitable for the number of
equally spaced stop/starts per hour shown in the
table below. Check capability of the driver and
control/starting system before commissioning.
Changing pump speed effects flow, total head, power
absorbed, NPSHR, noise and vibration. Flow varies in
direct proportion to pump speed, head varies as speed
ratio squared and power varies as speed ratio cubed.
The new duty, however, will also be dependent on the
system curve. If increasing the speed, it is important
therefore to ensure the maximum pump working
pressure is not exceeded, the driver is not overloaded,
NPSHA > NPSHR, and that noise and vibration are
within local requirements and regulations.
Page 18 of 40 flowserve.com
WPG and WPH USER INSTRUCTIONS ENGLISH 26999969 10-12
5.9.4 Net positive suction head (NPSHA)
NPSH available (NPSHA) is a measure of the head
available in the pumped liquid, above its vapour
pressure, at the pump suction branch.
NPSH required (NPSHR) is a measure of the head
required in the pumped liquid, above its vapour
pressure, to prevent the pump from cavitating. It is
important that NPSHA > NPSHR. The margin between
NPSHA > NPSHR should be as large as possible.
If any change in NPSHA is proposed, ensure these
margins are not significantly eroded. Refer to the
pump performance curve to determine exact
requirements particularly if flow has changed.
If in doubt please consult your nearest Flowserve
office for advice and details of the minimum allowable
margin for your application.
5.9.5 Pumped flow
Flow must not fall outside the minimum and
maximum continuous safe flow shown on the pump
performance curve and or data sheet.
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 5.7.
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
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) Check for any leaks from gaskets and seals. The
correct functioning of the shaft seal must be
checked regularly.

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 behaviour. Ensure noise,
vibration and bearing temperatures are normal.
b) Check that there are no abnormal fluid l leaks
(static and dynamic seals).
c) Check shaft seal leaks are within acceptable limits.
d) Check running hours since last recharge of
grease or complete grease change.
e) Check any auxiliary supplies eg heating/cooling
(if fitted) are functioning correctly.
Refer to the manuals of any associated
equipment for routine checks needed.
6.2.2 Periodic inspection (six monthly)
a) Check foundation bolts for
security of attachment and corrosion.
b) Check pump running records for hourly usage to
determine if bearing lubricant requires changing.
Refer to the manuals of any associated
equipment for periodic checks needed.
6.2.3 Re-lubrication
For general guidelines refer to section 5.1,
Lubrication.
Lubricant and bearing temperature analysis can be
useful in optimizing bearing change intervals.
6.2.4 Mechanical seals
When leakage becomes unacceptable the seal will
need replacement.
6.3 Spare parts
6.3.1 Ordering of spares
Flowserve keeps records of all pumps that have been
supplied. When ordering spares the following
information should be quoted:
1) Pump serial number.
2) Pump size.
3) Part name – taken from section 8.
4) Part number – taken from section 8.
5) Number of parts required.
The pump size and serial number are shown on the
pump nameplate.
To ensure continued satisfactory operation,
replacement parts to the original design specification
should be obtained from Flowserve. Any change to
the original design specification (modification or use
of a non-standard part) will invalidate the pump’s
safety certification.
6.3.2 Storage of spares
Spares should be stored in a clean dry area away
from vibration. Inspection and re-treatment of
metallic surfaces (if necessary) with preservative is
recommended at 6 monthly intervals.
6.4 Recommended spares
Recommended spares are defined on the following
basis and contained in the table in section 8.
Class 1 (S1) – start-up and commissioning spares.
Class 2 (S2) – two year spares requirement
covering maintenance for this period.
Class 3 (S3) –capital spares requirement.
A multiplier is provided in the last column of the table
for multiple pump purchases, which can be used
where more than one pump is purchased to give the
estimated volume of spares required.
See section 8 for recommended spares.
6.5 Tools required
A typical range of tools that will be required to
maintain these pumps is listed below.
Readily available in standard tool kits, and dependent
on pump size:
Open ended spanners (wrenches) to suit up to
M 20 screws/nuts
Socket spanners (wrenches), up to M 20 screws
Allen keys, up to 10 mm (A/F)
Range of screwdrivers
Soft mallet
Thickness feeler gages
6.6 Fastener torques
Screws for the drive end bearing cover should
be tightened uniformly to 7 Nm (5 lbf•ft).
Non-metallic gaskets incur creep
relaxation - before commissioning the pump check
and retighten fasteners to tightening torques stated.

WPG and WPH USER INSTRUCTIONS ENGLISH 26999969 10-12
6.7 Disassembly
Refer to Safety section 1.6 before dismantling
the pump.
Before dismantling the pump for
overhaul, ensure genuine Flowserve replacement
parts are available. Refer to sectional drawings for
part numbers and identification. (See section 8, Parts
lists and drawings.)
6.7.1 Dismantling bearing housing assembly
To remove proceed as follows:
a) Disconnect all auxiliary pipes and tubes where
applicable.
b) Remove coupling guard and disconnect coupling.
c) If oil lubricated frame, drain oil by removing drain
plug.
d) Pull off the pump half of coupling and remove
coupling key.
e) Remove support foot. Fit a screw into the tapped
hole in the frame to act as support. (NB: On larger
units leave the support foot in place.)
f) Remove the nuts which secure the integral frame
or bearing housing/adaptor to the pump casing.
g) Remove the rotating element complete with
bearing frame or bearing housing as one complete
unit for further dismantling.
h) Prise open the impeller locknut washer and
remove impeller nut (right hand thread). If an inlet
inducer is fitted then this should be removed first
(right hand thread).
i) Pull off the impeller.
j) On units fitted with gland packing, remove the
gland nuts and remove the gland from the studs.
Unscrew the stuffing box cover/bearing bracket
bolts (where fitted) and remove the stuffing box
cover.
k) Remove gland packing, lantern ring and packing
seating ring.
l) Remove shaft sleeve (if fitted).
m) On units fitted with mechanical seals, the
manufacturer's instructions should be followed
when dismantling and assembling. For standard
mechanical seals the following procedures give
general guidance.
n) Remove the nuts securing the seal plate to the
casing backplate seal housing and slide the seal
plate away.
o) Unscrew the stuffing box cover/bearing adaptor
bolts (where fitted) and remove the stuffing box
cover. The inboard seat on a double seal will
come away with the stuffing box cover.
p) Mark the position of the seal drive collar on the
shaft (or sleeve if fitted). Loosen the drive screws
in the seal drive collar and remove the rotating
element of the seals from the shaft or sleeve. For
double seals, smooth any marks on the shaft or
sleeve made by the inboard seal before removing
the outboard seal.
q) Remove stationary seat(s) from the seal plate
and seal housing. This should only be necessary
if the stationary face or its seating ring are being
replaced.
r) Remove shaft sleeve (if fitted).
6.7.2 Dismantling bearing frame
This operation should only be necessary if the
bearings are to be replaced.
a) Pull off the pump half coupling and remove
coupling key. Remove liquid thrower and both
bearing covers noting that metal labyrinth throwers
are secured by M 4 socket head setscrews.
b) Press shaft, complete with bearings, out of bearing
housing towards coupling end. On oil lubricated
units the outer race and roller of the pump end
bearing will stay in the housing. These should
now be removed.
c) Remove bearing locknut (and lockwasher where
fitted) and drive off bearings.
6.7.3 Renewable rings
a) When fitted, these should only be removed from
the casing and stuffing box cover when they need
to be replaced.
b) They should be prised out from behind using
levers, or alternatively, carefully drilled followed by
chiselling to split the ring to facilitate removal.
c) Replacement rings should be pressed into position
ensuring they are square within the recess.
6.8 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.
6.8.1 Casing, seal housing and impeller
Inspect for excessive wear, pitting, corrosion, erosion or
damage and any sealing surface irregularities. Replace
as necessary.
6.8.2 Shaft and sleeve (if fitted)
Replace if grooved, pitted or worn.
6.8.3 Gaskets and O-rings
After dismantling, discard and replace.
6.8.4 Bearings
It is recommended that bearings are not re-used after
any removal from the shaft.
Page 21 of 40 flowserve.com
WPG and WPH USER INSTRUCTIONS ENGLISH 26999969 10-12
6.8.5 Bearing isolators, labyrinths or lip seals (if
fitted)
The lubricant, bearings and bearing housing seals
are to be inspected for contamination and damage. If
oil bath lubrication is utilised, these provide useful
information on operating conditions within the bearing
housing. If bearing damage is not due to normal
wear and the lubricant contains adverse
contaminants, the cause should be corrected before
the pump is returned to service.
If the pump is fitted with lip seals they should be
replaced at overhaul.
Labyrinth seals and bearing isolators should be
inspected for damage but are normally non-wearing
parts and can be re-used.
Bearing seals are not totally leak free devices. Oil from
these may cause staining adjacent to the bearings.
Inspect the bearing carrier circlip groove. Ensure it is
free from damage and that housing lubrication
passages are clear.
Replace grease nipples or the filter breather (where
fitted) if damaged or clogged.
On oil lubricated versions, the oil level sight glass
should be replaced if oil stained.
6.9 Assembly
To assemble the pump, consult the sectional drawings.
(See section 8, Parts lists and drawings.)
Ensure threads, gasket and O-ring mating faces are
clean. Apply thread sealant to non-face sealing pipe
thread fittings.
6.9.1 Bearing housing and rotating element
assembly
a) Clean the inside of the bearing housing, bearing
carrier and bores for bearings.
b) Attach bearing housing support foot.
c) Press drive side bearing(s) on to shaft. If duplex
bearings are to be fitted, these must be mounted
back-to-back, as shown below:
The following methods are recommended for fitting the
bearings onto the shaft:
Method 1. Use a hotplate, hot bath, oven or induction
heater to heat the bearing race so it can easily be
placed in position then allowed to shrink and grip the
shaft. It is important that the temperature is not raised
above 100°C (212°F).
Method 2. Press the bearing onto the shaft using
equipment that can provide a steady, even load to the
inner race. Take care to avoid damage to the bearing
and shaft.
a) Fit bearing locknut (and lockwasher where
applicable).
b) On grease lubricated pumps, pack the bearings
with grease and pack the bearing cover cavity
approximately one third full with grease.
c) Insert the shaft, complete with bearings, into the
bearing housing/frame towards the pump end.
d) When fitting a labyrinth flinger, the groove in the
pump end bearing cover should be filled with
grease and the labyrinth flinger positioned to give
a clearance of 0.5 to 0.65 mm in front of the
bearing cover. Screws for the drive end bearing
cover should be tightened uniformly to 6.8 Nm
(5 lbf•ft).
e) Refit the liquid thrower.
f) Fit the shaft sleeve (if applicable) ensuring the
O-seal ring is correctly fitted.
6.9.2 Packed gland units
a) The stuffing box should be packed with good quality
packing suitable for the liquid being handled.
b) Assemble the gland packing into the stuffing box
housing before fitting on to the shaft.
c) Stagger the joints in the gland packing by 90
degrees to each other.
d) The lantern ring halves (if required) should be
positioned mid-way along the packing.
e) Position the gland squarely against the last ring
and tighten the gland nuts finger-tight only.
f) Install into bearing housing assembly and fit the
two screws to hold the seal housing in place.
g) Check that the shaft rotates freely.
6.9.3 Seal housing and seal assembly
a) Extreme cleanliness is required. The sealing
faces and shaft or sleeve surface must be free
from scratches or other damage.
b) Carefully press the stationary seat into the
mechanical seal housing or cover, ensuring that
the seating ring is not deformed.
c) Where an anti-rotation pin is fitted ensure that
correct engagement with the slot is achieved.
d) Place any separate seal covers over the shaft.

e) Set the seal to the same position as marked when
dis-assembling the unit or refer to manufacturer's
instructions to position the mechanical seal
rotating elements on the shaft or sleeve.
f) Tighten any drive screws in the seal drive collar.
g) For precise compression most cartridge seals
should be set after complete pump assembly.
h) Refit the seal plate and check that the seal is not
over-compressed or locked up solid.
i) Fit new casing gasket and refit the complete
stuffing box cover/bearing housing unit to the
pump casing. Coat the screws with anti-galling
compound and tighten into casing.
6.9.4 Rotary oil seals
a) Oil lip seals are not totally leak free devices and oil
leaking from a bearing housing can be visually
unpleasant in a clean pump room. Very careful
fitting practice for lip seals is therefore essential.
Particular attention must be paid to protecting the
seal from keyways by using shimming or tape and
careful handling of the shaft to avoid even fine
longitudinal scratches.
b) Perfectly assembled oil seals can have a leakage
rate from almost zero to 40 mg/hr. This is
equivalent to approximately 2 drops per hour and
at this rate the constant level oiler would need
filling only once every 6 months.
c) Fit oil seal carefully into position and refit the drive
side bearing cover and screws and tighten up.
d) Refit coupling key and pump half coupling using
heat, if necessary, to facilitate fitting. Do not
hammer the pump half coupling onto the shaft as
this will cause loading and damage to the bearings.
e) Rotate pump shaft by hand to check for freedom
of rotation.
6.9.5 Refit to baseplate
a) Refit pump to baseplate and check coupling
alignment as described in section 4.7, Final shaft
alignment check.
b) Refit all safety guards and ensure all other items
have been re-attached and all fasteners tightened.
