The Model 3296 is a sealless frame-mounted
centrifugal pump with an enclosed impeller, that is
driven by a synchronous magnetic coupling, and meets
dimensional standards of ANSI B73.1.
Magnetic Coupling - is a coaxial synchronous type
using rare earth magnets. This concept results in a
compact design and allows the impeller to turn at the
same speed as the motor, (i.e.) there is no slip between
the drive and driven magnets.
Magnets - Two types of rare earth magnets are
available. Neodymium Iron (NdFe), which is used
when pumpage temperatures are less than 250°F
(120°C). For liquid pumpage between 250°F (120°C)
and 425°F (220°C) Samarium Cobalt (SmCo) magnets
are used.
Containment Shell - isolates the pumped liquid from
the atmosphere. Standard material is Hastelloy-C
which provides excellent corrosion and erosion
resistance.
NAMEPLATE INFORMATION
Sleeve Bearings and Thrust Bearings - Goulds
standard bearing material is Pure Sintered Alpha Grade
Silicon Carbide. The sleeve bearings are flexibly
mounted using O-rings.
Impeller - Model 3296 utilizes an enclosed impeller,
hydraulically balanced and keyed to the shaft.
Bearing Frame - the standard configuration is cast
ductile iron with flood oil lubricated ball bearings.
Pure oil mist systems are available as an option. For
protection and reliability of the bearings and the
lubricant, a carbon filled teflon non-contacting
labyrinth seal is provided. On the inboard side a lip
seal is used to prevent leakage of oil into the magnetic
drive assembly.
Casing - is top centerline discharge, self venting type
incorporates a fully confined gasket. 150 lb. ANSI
serrated raised face flanges are standard. The 3296 has
been designed such that there is a metal to metal fit
between the casing and frame adapter.
Every pump has 3 Goulds nameplates that provide
information on your pump. The tags are located on the
casing and bearing frame.
Pump Casing Tag - provides information relative to
the pumps characteristics. The format of pump size
information is: Discharge x Suction - Nominal
Impeller Diameter, (ex.1x1
Bearing Frame Tag - provides information relative to
the type of magnets being used.

SITE/FOUNDATION
A pump should be located near the supply of liquid
and have adequate space for operation, maintenance,
and inspection.
Baseplate mounted pumps are normally grouted to a
concrete foundation, which has been poured on a solid
footing. The foundation must be able to
Fig. 4A
absorb any vibration and to form a permanent, rigid
support for the pumping unit.
The location and size of the foundation bolts are
shown on the outline assembly drawing, provided with
the pump data package.
Foundation bolts commonly used are sleeve type (Fig.
4A) and J type (Fig. 4B). Both designs permit
movement for final bolt adjustment.

Page 16
LEVEL BASEPLATE
1.Place 2 sets of wedges or shims on the foundation,
one set on each side of every foundation bolt. The
wedges should extend .75 in. (20 mm) to 1.5 in.
(40 mm) above the foundation, to allow for
adequate grouting. This will provide even support
for the baseplate once it is grouted.
2.Remove water and/or debris from anchor bolt
holes/sleeves prior to grouting. If the sleeve
Fig. 5A
type bolts are being used, fill the sleeves with rags to
prevent grout from entering.
3.Carefully lower baseplate onto foundation bolts.
4.Level baseplate to within .125 in.(3mm) over the length of
the base and .062 in. (1.5 mm) over the width of the base
by adjusting shims or wedges.
5.Hand tighten bolts.

ALIGNMENT AND ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE
!WARNING
s
Before beginning any alignment procedure make
sure driver power is locked out. Failure to lock out
driver power can result in serious personal injury.
The points at which alignment is checked and adjusted
are:
l
Initial Alignment is done prior to operation when
the pump and the driver are at ambient temperature.
l
Final Alignment is done after operation when the
pump and driver are at operating temperature.
Alignment is achieved by adding or removing shims
from under the feet of the driver and shifting
equipment horizontally as needed.
NOTE: Proper alignment is the responsibility of
the installer of the unit.
Accurate alignment of the equipment must be attained.
Trouble-free operation can be accomplished by following these
procedures:.
ALIGNMENT CHECKS
Initial Alignment (Cold Alignment)
l
Before Grouting Baseplate- To ensure alignment can be
obtained.
l
After Grouting Baseplate - To ensure no changes to
alignment have occurred during grouting process.
l
After Connecting Piping -To ensure that pipe strains haven’t
altered alignment. If changes have occurred, alter piping to
remove pipe strains on pump flanges.
Final Alignment (Hot Alignment)
l
After First Run -To obtain correct alignment when both
pump and driver are at operating temperature. Thereafter,
alignment should be checked periodically in accordance with
plant operating and maintenance procedures.

Page 17
ALIGNMENT CRITERIA
Good alignment is achieved when dial indicator
readings as specified in the alignment procedure are
.002 in. (.05 mm) Total Indicated Reading (T.I.R.) or
less when the pump and driver are at operating
temperature (Final Alignment).
MEASUREMENT
1.To ensure accuracy of indicator readings, always
rotate both coupling halves together so indicators
contact the same point on coupling half Y. This
will eliminate any measurement problems due to
runout on coupling half Y.
During the installation phase, however, it is necessary
to set the parallel alignment in the vertical direction to
a different criteria due to differences in expansion rates
of the pump and driver. Table 1 below shows
recommended cold settings for electric motor driven
pumps based on different pumpage temperatures.
Driver manufacturers should be consulted for
recommended cold settings for other types of drivers
(steam turbines, engines, etc.)

PIPING
Guidelines for piping are given in the “Hydraulic
Institute Standards” (Edition 14, Centrifugal pump
section) and should be reviewed prior to pump
installation.
1.All piping must be supported independently and
must line up naturally with the pump flanges.
!WARNING
s
Never draw piping into place by forcing at the
flanged connections of the pump. This will impose
dangerous strains on the unit and cause
misalignment between pump and driver. Pipe
strain can adversely effect the operation of the
pump. That could result in serious personal injury
and damage to equipment.
2.Piping runs shall be designed to minimize friction
losses.
3.DO NOT make final connection of piping to pump
until grout has hardened and pump and driver
hold-down bolts have been tightened.
7.Tighten foundation bolts.
Alignment Check
Re-check alignment before continuing, using methods
previously described.
7.Gasket installation and materials must be suitable
for the service.
SUCTION PIPING
Properly installed suction piping is a necessity for
trouble free pump operation. Suction piping should be
flushed BEFORE connection to the pump.
1.Use of elbows close to the pump suction flange
should be avoided. There should be a minimum of
2 pipe diameters of straight pipe between the
elbow and suction inlet. Any elbows used should
be long radius.
2.Size suction pipe one or two sizes larger than
pump suction, with a reducer at suction flange.
Suction piping must never be of smaller diameter
than the pump suction.
3.Reducers, if used, must be eccentric at pump
suction flange with sloping side down.
4.Piping that handles hot liquids requires proper
installation of expansion loops/joints so that linear
expansion of piping will not cause mis-alignment.
5.Piping should be arranged to allow pump flushing
and draining prior to the removal of pump for
servicing.
6.System should be thoroughly cleaned prior to
installation.
4.Suction strainers, when used, must have a net
“free area” of at least three times the suction pipe
area.
5.Separate suction lines are recommended when
more than one pump is operating from the same
source of supply.
163296 M Group 6/05
Page 21
Suction Lift Conditions
1.Suction pipe must continuously slope upward
towards pump suction to eliminate air pockets.
2.All joints must be air tight.
FINAL PIPING CHECK
After Connecting Piping to the Pump
1.Rotate shaft several times by hand to be sure that
there is no binding and all parts are free.
3.A means of priming the pump must be provided,
such as a foot valve.
Suction Head/Flooded Suction Conditions
1.An isolation valve should be installed in suction
line to permit closing of the line for pump
inspection and maintenance.
2.Piping should be level or slope gradually
downward from source of supply.
3.No portion of piping should extend below pump
suction flange.
4.The suction pipe shall be submerged sufficiently
below the liquid surface to prevent vortices and air
entrainment at the supply.
DISCHARGE PIPING
1.Isolation and check valves should be installed in
discharge line. Locate check valve between
isolation valve and pump which will permit
inspection of check valve. An isolation valve is
required for isolating, priming, regulation of flow,
inspection and maintenance of the pump. A check
valve prevents pump damage due to reverse flow
when driver is turned off.
2.Check alignment, per the alignment procedure
outlined previously to determine absence of pipe
strain. If pipe strain exists, correct piping.
3
2.Increasers, if used, should be placed between
pump and check valves.
3.Cushioning devices should be used to protect
pump from surges and water hammer, if
quick-closing valves are installed in system.

PREPARATION FOR START-UP
FLUSHING PUMP
The 3296 is flushed with Ethylene Glycol Solution at
the factory to prevent accidental freezing during
shipping or storage at the customers site. Residual
amounts will remain in the pump but if this is a
problem, the 3296 can be flushed out following the
below procedure before pump is installed.
Procedure
3
1.Remove
flush liquid supply.
2.Devise a means of collecting flush liquid as it
drains out the suction nozzle or casing drain if
supplied.
3.Turn flush supply on and run for 5 minutes to
remove Ethylene Glycol residue.
4.When done, raise the coupling end of the pump
(suction flange down) to drain remaining flush
liquid from pump internals. Or, if pump is
equipped with a casing drain plug, remove it to
drain remaining liquid.

Page 24
NOTE: Pump is shipped with coupling spacer
removed.
3.unlock driver power.
4.Make sure everyone is clear. Jog driver just long
enough to determine direction of rotation.
Rotation must correspond to arrow on bearing
frame.
Pure Oil Mist Lubrication - Pure oil mist is an
optional feature for the 3296. If your pump is equipped
with pure oil mist refer to oil mist generator
manufacturer’s instruction book for proper operation.
!WARNING
s
Operation of the unit without proper lubrication
will cause bearing failure, and pump seizure.
5.Lock out power to driver.
COUPLE PUMP AND DRIVER
!WARNING
s
Lock out driver power to prevent accidental
start-up that could result in serious personal
injury.
Lubricate coupling per manufacturer’s instructions and
install coupling spacer.
INSTALL COUPLING GUARD
Install coupling guard as defined in the appendix.
!WARNING
s
Never operate a pump without a coupling guard
properly installed. Operating pump without a
properly installed coupling guard can result in
serious personal injury.
LUBRICATING BEARINGS
Flood Oil Lubrication - Pumps are shipped without
oil. Fill bearing frame with oil, through filler
connection until oil level reaches center of sight-glass
(Fig A). A high quality turbine type oil, with rust and
oxidation inhibitors should be used as specified in
Table 5.
CONNECT CONDITION
MONITORING DEVICES
Always connect thermocouple to control panel and/or
temperature switch in driver starter. If unit is also
equipped with leak detection and vibration monitoring
systems, these must also be connected. (See Appendix
for wiring diagrams.)
PRIMING PUMP
Never start pump until properly primed (pump casing and
suction piping are full of liquid). Components such as
internal sleeve bearings depend on liquid for lubrication and
will quickly fail if run dry.
Your particular system conditions will dictate method
used to prime pump.

MAINTENANCE OF BEARINGS
OIL LUBRICATED BEARINGS
Oil level is measured through sight glass. Oil level
must not fall below center of site glass. An increase in
level may be noted after start up due to oil circulation
within the bearing frame. Change Oil after 200 hours
for new bearings, thereafter every 4000 operating
hours or 6 months, which ever period is shorter.
Change oil every 2000 operating hours under severe
operating conditions, such as high temperature services
[pumpage temperatures in excess of 325°F (160°C)].
We recommend using Table 5 to help determine your
lubricating oil needs.

SET UP INSTRUCTIONS
The following are setup instructions which, along with the GTP System instruction manual, will guide you through
the proper setup and operation of the total protection package.
Mounting Location
The Goulds Total Protection System can be located most non-hazardous plant locations where a NEMA 4X
enclosure is appropriate. If a NEMA 7 enclosure is required, the GTP Controller should be mounted in a separate
NEMA 7 enclosure, such as a junction box, that is supplied by the customer. It should be in an area that is
convenient to view, monitor and make adjustments. It should also be mounted near the starter to simplify wiring to
the AC current sense transformer and to the motor starter control circuit. Note that if the starter control transformer
secondary voltage is 120 VAC ro 240 VAC, the GTP System can be wired to it because of its low power
requirement (6 VA).
The current transformer should be mounted in the starter on one of the legs of the power cable between the starter
contacts and the motor. The cable is passed through the current transformer once if AC current range switch is set at
200 or 300. Route the cable through the sense transformer 4 times if the range switch is set at 20 (Total of 5 lines
through transformer window) Refer to current settings for appropriate switch setting.
Wiring
To prevent personal injuries, follow the INSTALLATION WARNING instructions in the GTP system instruction
manual when wiring the GTP controller to the starter, current transformer, thermocouple and auxiliary sensor. Be
sure to route power and sensor wiring in different conduit runs and have each cable properly grounded.
Alarm Level Settings
Follow the ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE section of the GTP system instruction manual when making adjustments
to the threshold levels for the temperature and current and the delay control adjustments. This instruction covers the
levels required to properly protect the 3296 pump and avoid nuisance trips and alarms as follows:
Current Settings
The GTP System protects the 3296 from dry running, low flow, magnet decoupling and AC motor overload by
monitoring both under current and over current.
Dry Running Protection
To protect against dry running the pump, the current level measurements of the motor uncoupled as well as with
the 3196 pump running at shutoff are needed. Although these values can be calculated from the motor
manufacturer's data for no load motor current and the horsepower from the pump performance curve, it is best
to obtain them during the initial installation and startup of the motor and pump using the GTP system. While
operating the motor uncoupled the current level is obtained directly from the GTP System panel meter, with the
selection switch set at "AC Level." With the pump coupled, started and stabilized, reduce pump flow to zero
and read the current level from the meter. (CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE THE PUMP AT ZEROFLOW FOR LONGER THAN 1 MINUTE). Set the under current threshold level to the average of these two
current values (REF GTP system manual) adjustment procedure, Step 2).
Low Flow Protection
To protect against low flow operation of the pump, set the pump to the minimum flow desired (refer to Goulds
Supplemental Engineering Data 725.9A108 for minimum flow for 3296 pumps), read the current level on the
meter and set this current level for the under current threshold (REF GTP system manual adjustment procedure,
Step 2).
Magnetic Decoupling and Motor Overload Protection
Set the over current threshold level to prevent magnetic decoupling of the 3296 pump or over current operation
of the motor, depending on which threshold is lower. Refer to the pump performance curve and note the
maximum drive power listed. Calculate the current draw for the HP on the motor selected to drive the pump.
This is the over current threshold level to set for preventing decoupling. If this level exceeds the full load
current of the motor, use the motor full load current value as the threshold level. This will protect the motor
from over current operation as well as magnetic decoupling of the pump (REF GTP system manual adjustment
procedure, Step 3).
823296 M Group 6/05
Page 87
High Temperature Protection
The temperature circuit monitors the containment shell skin temperature and shuts down the pump once a
predetermined temperature level is reached. The temperature set point should be adjusted to alarm at a temperature
of 30° F (17° C) above the anticipated pumpage temperature (for most applications) or should be set at a
temperature predetermined to cause a pump problem due to the unique characteristics of the liquid being pumped
(problems such as recirculation, liquid vaporization or polymerization). This set point should not exceed the
maximum continuous operating temperature for the magnetic material supplied in the pump. If neodymium magnets
were supplied the maximum temperature set point is 125 C (250° F). For Samarium Cobalt magnets, the maximum
temperature set point is 220° C (428° F). (REF GTP system manual adjustment procedure, Step 4).
Vibration Transmitter (Optional)
The vibration monitor circuit detects vibration and shuts down the pump once a predetermined vibration level is
reached. (REF 3296 instruction F). With the meter selector switch set to "VIBRA LEVEL" (Vibration Level), the
vibration reading in IN/SEC is displayed on the meter.
The transmitter is not installed at the factory in order to minimize the risk of shipping damage. It, therefore, must be
installed by the user - refer to Vibration Monitor Option in this manual as shown.
Adjust meter span to read the desired full scale reading, usually 1.00 (Refer to GTP system manual adjustment
procedure Steps 5 and 6). Adjust the decimal select switch as required to make this adjustment.
Set the limit to trip at a vibration level 50% higher than the baseline vibration, but not to exceed .5 IN/SEC. The
baseline is the vibration level shown on the monitor during operation of a new properly installed pump. If the
baseline exceeds .3 IN/SEC, determine cause of vibration and correct.
NOTE: This is an analogue 4-20 mA circuit and is, therefore, compatible with any sensor that produces a 4-20
mA signal. If the vibration transmitter is not purchased, this circuit is available to the user to measure another
parameter as desired. Be sure to relabel face of GTP controller to reflect new function.
Liquid Leak Detector (Optional)
This detector senses a leak in the containment shell by detecting pressure in the bearing frame bell housing. A
pressure switch preset to trip at 10 PSIG on increasing pressure is supplied. Two pressure switches are available,
NEMA 4 and NEMA7. (REF 3296 pressure switch leak detector options in this manual)..
The switch is not installed at the factory in order to minimize the risk of shipping damage. It, therefore, must be
installed by the user - Again, refer to the pressure switch section.
For the NEMA 4 switch, connect the wire labeled "common" to terminal No. 9 on the GTP System controller and
the wire labeled "N.O." (Normally Open) to terminal No. 14. The N.C. (Normally Closed) wire is not used and
must be taped. For the NEMA 7 switch, connect in the same way except, in addition, run the green wire to ground
per applicable electrical codes.
3296 M Group 6/0583
Page 88
System Pressure
This circuit, if utilized, shuts down the pump if it is operating dry or at too low a suction pressure. A user supplied
pressure switch monitoring pressure in either the discharge or the suction pipe is required. This switch is not
available through Goulds due to the diversity in pressure, materials of construction and connection sizes.
Dry Running Protection
A pressure switch monitoring the pressure in the discharge pipe senses low pressure, indicating a loss of prime
or operation at too high a flow. Switch should be normally closed, SPDT, adjustable set point, trigger on
decreasing pressure, capable of system pressure, compatible with pumpage and compatible with plant
environment. Adjust set point to trigger at 2 PSI below the lowest discharge pressure reading attained during
normal operation. Connect wiring to terminal 15, common and ground as required.
Low Suction Pressure Protection
A pressure switch monitoring the pressure in the suction pipe senses low pressure, indicating low tank level,
clogged suction screen, or closed suction valve. The switch should be normally closed, SDPT, adjustable set
point, trigger on decreasing pressure, capable of system pressure, compatible with environment. Adjust set
point to trigger at 1 PSI below the lowest pressure reading attained during normal operation. Ensure NPSH
requirements of pump are met under these conditions. Note that suction pressure detection alone does not in
itself monitor NPSH available to pump. Connect wiring to terminals 15, common and ground as required.
NOTE: If the Liquid Leak Detector and/or the System Pressure Monitors are not used, terminals 14 and/or 15
are available for use with any latched type switch. A temperature switch or vibration switch could also be
utilized to satisfy a particular user's need. Be sure to relabel face of GTP controller to reflect new function.
NOTE: If these terminals, 14 and 15, are not used, they must be shorted to common in order for the GTP
System to operate properly.
