Pressure in discharge line and in pump must
be at zero before any maintenance to the
pump takes place. Close up suction line. Disconnect fuses to ensure that the driving motor
does not get switched on accidentally.
Make sure that all parts on the pressure side of
the unit are vented and relled, with pressure
at zero, before starting the pump.
In order to prevent air, or an air/water-mixture
being absorbed and to prevent cavitation oc-
curring, the pump-NPSHR, positive suction
head and water temperature must be kept
under control.
Cavitation and/or compression of gases
lead to uncontrollable pressure kicks which
can ruin pump and unit parts and also be
dangerous to the operator or anyone standing nearby.
Giant plunger pumps are suitable for pumping clean water and other non-aggressive or
abrasive media with a specic weight similar to
water.
Safety Rules
Before pumping other liquids - especially
inammable, explosive and toxic media
Pump operation without safety valve as well
as any excess in the temperature or speed
limits automatically voids the warranty. The
safety valve must be regulated in accordance
with the guidelines for liquid spraying units so
that the admissible operating pressure can
- the pump manufacturer must under all
circumstances be consulted with regard to
the resistance of the pump material. It is
the responsibility of the equipment manufacturer and/or operator to ensure that all
pertinent safety regulations are adhered to.
not be exceeded by more than 10%.
When the pump is in operation, the open
shaft end must be covered up by shaft pro-
tector (21), the driven shaft side and coupling
by a contact protector.

Consult the factory for special requirements that must be met if the
pump is to operate beyond one or more of the limits specied above.
Horsepower Ratings:
We recommend a 1.15 service factor be specied when selecting an electric motor as the power source.
To compute electric motor horsepower required, use the following formula: HP = (GPM X PSI) / 1450.
The formula to determine the horsepower required for a gas engine is: HP = (GPM X PSI) / 1150.
For the Application of a Hydraulic Motor:
To Determine the Torque of a Hydraulic Motor -- (GPM x PSI x 36.77) / RPM = Torque (in-lbs)
Calculating RPM / GPM of Pump:
A pump must be connected to an electric motor or gas or diesel engine with the correct ratio of pulleys
and belts to attain the required speed and GPM. The use of a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) may also
be used to control the RPM of a properly sized electric motor when variable ows are required.
Suction Valve: Remove plugs (42A). Take out spacer pipe (51) and suction valve adaptor (52). For MP4120 and
MP4124 pumps, remove spacer ring (52A) as well. Push valve parts and as necessary spacer pipe (51) out of
suction valve adaptor using a soft tool.
Check and replace worn parts. Check O-rings (42B, 44A, 53 and 53A for MP4120/MP4124 only). Replace as
necessary.
Discharge Valve: Remove plugs (48). Remove spring tension cap (47), valve spring (46) and valve plate (45) from
the discharge valve. Take out valve seat (44) with a size 2 pull-out device.
Check and replace worn parts.
Check O-rings (44A, 48A) and replace as necessary.
Tighten plugs (42A, 48) to 107 ft.-lbs. (145 Nm).
To Check Seals and Plunger Pipe
Screw out plugs (42A). Loosen nuts (50) and remove valve casing from plungers, pulling it out to the front. Take
out spacer pipe (51), suction valve adaptor (52), tension spring (42) and seal-unit (39,40,41).
Check surfaces of plunger pipes as damaged surfaces cause fast wear to the seals.
When replacing V-sleeves (40 and 40A), grease new seals with special grease from pump manufacturer before
installing.
Check O-rings (42B, 44A, 53, 53A) and replace as necessary.
REPAIR INSTRUCTION - MP SERIES
Check rear v-sleeve (35 and 35B) and O-ring (35D) after having removed snap ring (36) and replace as necessary.
If plunger pipe (29B) has to be replaced, loosen tension screw (29C) and remove it together with the plunger pipe.
Check and clean plunger (25) surfaces and install new plunger pipe.
Cover thread of tension screw (29C) with a ne lm of liquid glue and tighten carefully to 247 in.-lbs. (28 Nm).
Important! Care must be taken that no glue gets between the plunger pipe (29B) and centring sleeve (29A). The
plunger pipe should not be strained by eccentric tightening of tension screw, nor through dirt or damage to the
front surface of the plunger as this could cause the plunger pipe to break.
Install spacer rings (41A, 52A - MP4120/MP4124 only), tension spring (42), spring tension disc (54), suction valve
adaptor (52) and spacer pipe (51) and then tighten plug (42A) to 107 ft.-lbs. (145 Nm).
Fix valve case by tightening nuts (50) evenly to 59 ft.-lbs. (80 Nm).
To Dismantle Gear
Drain oil after dismantling the valve casing (43) and plunger pipes, then remove crankcase cover (4) and bearing
cover (14).
Loosen connecting rod screws (24) and push stem of connecting rod halves as far as possible into the crosshead
guides.
Important! Connecting rods are marked for identication. Do not twist connecting rod halves. Connecting rod is
to be reinstalled in the same position on shaft journals.
Whilst turning slightly, hit out the crankshaft to one side with a rubber hammer.
Important! Do not bend the connecting rod shanks. Check shaft and connecting rod surfaces, shaft seals (31)
and taper roller bearings (20).
To Reassemble
Using a soft tool, press in the outer bearing ring till the outer edge lines up with the outer edge of the bearing hole.
Remove bearing cover together with shaft seal and O-ring. Fit shaft through bearing hole on the opposite side.
Press in outer bearing and tension it inwards with the bearing cover, keeping the shaft in vertical position and turning slowly so that the taper rollers of the bearings touch the edge of the outer bearing ring.
Adjust axial bearing clearance to at least 0.1mm and maximum 0.15mm by placing tting discs (20A) under the
bearing cover.
Important! After assembly has been completed, the shaft should turn easily with very little clearance. Tighten
connecting rod screws (24) to 106 in.-lbs. (12 Nm).
