SAFETY WARNINGS
Specific to pumping equipment, significant risks bear reinforcement above and beyond normal safety precautions.
WARNING
A pump is a pressure vessel with rotating parts that can be hazardous. Any pressure vessel can explode,
rupture, or discharge its contents if sufficiently over pressurized causing death, personal injury, property
damage, and/or damage to the environment. All necessary measures must be taken to ensure over
pressurization does not occur.
WARNING
Operation of any pumping system with a blocked suction and discharge must be avoided in all cases.
Operation, even for a brief period under these conditions, can cause superheating of enclosed pumpage and
result in a violent explosion. All necessary measures must be taken by the end user to ensure this condition is
avoided.
WARNING
The pump may handle hazardous and/or toxic fluids. Care must be taken to identify the contents of the pump
and eliminate the possibility of exposure, particularly if hazardous and/or toxic. Potential hazards include, but
are not limited to, high temperature, flammable, acidic, caustic, explosive, and other risks.
WARNING
Pumping equipment Instruction, Operation, and Maintenance manuals clearly identify accepted methods for
disassembling pumping units. These methods must be adhered to. Specifically, applying heat to impellers
and/or impeller retaining devices to aid in their removal is strictly forbidden. Trapped liquid can rapidly
expand and result in a violent explosion and injury.

The model 3420 is a horizontal between bearings, enclosed
impeller double suction centrifugal pump.
Casing - The casing is horizontally split. The upper and
lower halves are held together with studs and nuts and/or
capscrews. Flanged suction and discharge connections are
located in the lower half of the casing and conform to ANSI
16.1/16.5 class 125/150. The casing is supported by
integrally cast feet. Separate bearing housings are attached
directly to machined fits in each end of the casing with
capscrews or machined fits secured with bearing caps and
studs and nuts. All sizes have dual volute casings to reduce
radial loads on the shaft. The casings are standard with two
jacking screws, two lifting lugs for the upper half, two
tapered dowel pins for alignment, and a .030 or .016 in. (.75
or .41 mm) non-asbestos parting gasket. The upper half is
3420 IOM 8/097
provided with a vent connection, a priming connection, and
one or two stuffing box seal ring connections. The lower half
is provided with two drain connections, suction and
discharge gauge connections, and stuffing box overflow
connections.
Impeller - The impeller is an enclosed, double suction design
providing axial hydraulic balance. All exterior surfaces are
fully machined. The impeller receives a one or two plane spin
balance as standard. The impeller is keyed to the shaft and
held in place using shaft sleeves and sleeve nuts.
Wear Rings - Casing and impeller wear rings are supplied as
standard to maintain proper running clearances and to
minimize leakage between the suction and discharge
chambers in the casing. Each casing ring is held in place with
Page 16
a machined hook lock. The impeller rings are held in place
using axial set screws.
Shaft - The shaft is a heavy duty design that minimizes
deflection and vibration. The shaft deflection is a maximum
of .002 in (.051 mm) at the stuffing box face under the worst
operating conditions. The shaft is completely dry with O-ring
seals between the impeller and shaft sleeves and the shaft
sleeves and the sleeve nuts. The standard shaft is AISI 4340
steel with an option for 316 stainless steel.
Shaft Sleeves - Shaft sleeves are standard on all pumps. They
are keyed to the shaft at the impeller and held in place using
sleeve nuts. The sleeve nuts tighten against rotation and are
secured in place with set screws.
Stuffing Box - Non-asbestos packing is standard. The
stuffing box contains a Teflon™ split lantern ring and
renewable stuffing box throat bushings. Tapped openings are
provided for water sealing from either the pump casing or an
outside source. Bypass piping is optional. Two-piece
machined split glands are standard on all packed pumps.
Mechanical Seals - Mechanical seals can be supplied as a
non-standard option. Most seal designs fit in the standard
stuffing box. Goulds does not have its own design gland, so
the gland must be supplied by the seal manufacturer.
Bearings - There are many different bearing configurations
that are offered on the 3420. Specific configurations are
dependent on pump size and group and purchased setup.
Grease lubricated ball, grease lubricated roller, flood oil
lubricated ball, ring oil lubricated ball, and ring oil lubricated
roller bearings are used on various sizes. Oil lubrication is
standard with grease optional. The bearing housings are
sealed with machined labyrinth seals or lip seals.
Baseplates - Fabricated steel bases are standard with a drip
collection chamber and a tapped drain connection. The base
is designed to be grouted and has grout and vent holes.
Soleplates for the pump only or motor only are offered as an
option.

Short Term: (Less than 6 months): Goulds normal
packaging procedure is designed to protect the pump during
shipping. Upon receipt, store in a covered and dry location.
Long Term: (More than 6 months): Preservative treatment of
bearings and machined surfaces will be required. Rotate shaft
several times every three months. Refer to driver and
coupling manufacturers for their long term storage
procedures. Store in a covered dry location.
Note: Long term storage treatment can be purchased
with the initial pump order.
HANDLING
!WARNING
s
Pump and components are heavy. Failure to properly lift
and support the equipment could result in serious
physical injury, or damage to the pump(s). Steel-toed
shoes must be worn at all times.
Fig. 3A
Use care when moving pumps. Lifting equipment must be
able to adequately support the entire assembly. Hoist a bare
pump or a pump and soleplate unit using a suitable sling,
under the two bearing housings (Fig. 3A). Baseplate mounted
units without motors are moved by supporting the pump with
a sling under the two bearing housings and a sling under the
motor end of the baseplate (Fig. 3B). Baseplate mounted
units with motors are moved with slings attached to the
baseplate lifting lugs. The use of a spreader bar is required so
that the pump is not damaged (Fig 3C).
Final Piping Check ...............................23
3
FOUNDATION
The foundation must be substantial enough to absorb
vibration. (Hydraulic Institute Standards recommends the
foundation weigh at least five [5] times the weight of the
pump unit.) It must form a permanent and rigid support for the
baseplate. This is important in maintaining the alignment of a
flexibly coupled unit.
Foundation bolts of the proper size should be embedded in the
concrete to a depth of eight (8) to twelve (12) inches and
locked with either a hook around a reinforcing bar or
alternatively, a nut and washer at the bottom. The bolts should
have a sleeve around them at least six (6) times the bolt
diameter in length and at least two (2) bolt sizes larger in I.D.
If a nut and washer are used for locking, the washer should
have an O.D. two (2) sizes larger than the sleeve. Foundation
bolts should be sized .125" less than the anchor bolt holes in
the base.
The foundation should be poured to within .75" - 1.5" of
the finished height. (See Fig. 4) Freshly poured foundations
should be allowed to cure for several days before the unit is
set in place and grouted.

Page 20
BASEPLATE INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
Industry standard procedures and/or the following
procedure should be followed prior to grouting the
baseplate. The procedure assumes the installer has a basic
knowledge of baseplate and foundation design and
installation methods.
BASEPLATE PREPARATION
1.Inspect all surfaces of the baseplate that will contact
the grout for contamination (rust, oil, grime, etc.)
2.Thoroughly clean all surfaces of the baseplate that will
contact the grout with a cleaner that will not leave any
residue.
NOTE: It may be necessary to sandblast the contact
surfaces and coat with a primer compatible with the
grout. If sandblasting is necessary, remove all the
equipment prior to sandblasting.
LEVEL BASEPLATE
1.Place two 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.
3.Inspect all machined surfaces for burrs, rust, paint, or
any other type of contamination. If necessary, use a
honing stone to remove any burrs.
FOUNDATION PREPARATION
1.Chip the top of the foundation .50-1.0 in. (13-25 mm)
to remove porous or low strength concrete. If using a
pneumatic hammer, assure that it is not contaminating
the surface with oil, moisture, etc.
2.Remove water and/or debris from the foundation bolt
holes/sleeves. If sleeve type bolts are being used, fill
the sleeves with stuffing material and seal to prevent
grout from entering.
3.Coat the exposed portion of the anchor bolts with a
non-bonding compound to prevent grout from
adhering to the anchor bolts.
4.If recommended by the grout manufacturer, coat the
foundation surface with a compatible primer.
2.Remove water and/or debris from anchor bolt
holes/sleeves prior to grouting. If sleeve type bolts are
being used, fill the sleeves with rags to prevent grout
from entering.
Fig. 6
163420 IOM 08/09
Page 21
3.Carefully lower the baseplate onto the foundation
bolts.
4.Level the baseplate to within .125 in. (3.2 mm) over
the length of the baseplate and to within .088 in. (1.5
mm) over the width of the baseplate by adjusting the
wedges. If the baseplate has vertical leveling screws,
use the screws to level the base.
5.Hand tighten the foundation bolts.

ALIGNMENT AND ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE
Alignment procedures must be followed to prevent
!
unintended contact of rotating parts. Follow
coupling manufacturer’s installation and operation
procedures.
!WARNING
s
Before beginning any alignment procedure, make sure
driver power is locked out. Failure to lock out driver
power may result in serious physical injury.
To remove guard, refer to coupling guard assembly/
disassembly instructions.
The points at which alignment is checked and adjusted are:
Initial Alignment is done prior to operation when the
•
pump and the driver are at ambient temperature.
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.
Final Alignment (Hot Alignment)
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 procedures.
NOTE: Alignment check must be made if process
temperature changes, piping changes and or pump
service is performed.
ALIGNMENT CRITERIA
Good alignment is achieved when the 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).
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 shows recommended
preliminary (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.)
NOTE: Proper alignment is the responsibility of the
installer and user 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)
Before Grouting Baseplate - To ensure alignment can
•
be obtained.
After Grouting Baseplate - To ensure no changes have
•
occurred during grouting process.
After Connecting Piping - To ensure pipe strains have
•
not altered alignment. If changes have occurred, alter
piping to remove pipe strains on pump flanges.

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.
2.Take indicator measurements with driver feet
hold-down bolts tightened. Loosen hold down bolts
prior to making alignment corrections.
3.Take care not to damage indicators when moving
driver during alignment corrections.
ANGULAR ALIGNMENT
A unit is in angular alignment when indicator A (Angular
indicator) does not vary by more that .002 in. (.05 mm) as
measured at four points 90° apart (Fig. 10).
Positive Reading - The coupling halves are closer at
the bottom than at the top. Correct by either lowering
the driver feet at the shaft end (remove shims) or
raising the driver feet at the other end (add shims).
4.Repeat steps 1-3 until indicator A reads .002 in (.05
mm) or less.
Horizontal Correction (Side-to-Side)
1.Zero indicator A on left side of coupling half Y, 90°
from top dead center (9 o’clock).
2.Rotate indicators through top dead center to the right
side, 180° from the start (3 o’clock). Observe needle
and record reading.
3.Negative Reading - The coupling halves are further
apart on the right side than the left. Correct by either
sliding the shaft end of the driver to the left or the
other end to the right.
Positive Reading - The coupling halves are closer
together on the right side than the left. Correct by
either sliding the shaft end of the driver to the right or
the other end to the left.
4.Repeat steps 1 through 3 until indicator A reads .002
in. (.05 mm) or less.
5.Re-check both horizontal and vertical readings to
ensure adjustment of one did not disturb the other.
Correct as necessary.

PARALLELALIGNMENT
A unit is in parallel alignment when indicator P (parallel
indicator) does not vary by more than .002 in. (.05 mm) as
measured at four points 90° apart at operating temperature.
Note the preliminary vertical cold setting criteria, Table 1.
Vertical Correction (Top-to-Bottom)
1.Zero indicator P at top dead center of coupling (12
o’clock) half Y.
2.Rotate indicator to bottom dead center (6 o‘clock).
Observe needle and record reading.
3.Negative Reading - Coupling half X is lower than
coupling half Y. Correct by removing shims of
thickness equal to half of the indicator reading under
each driver foot.
Positive Reading - Coupling half X is higher than
coupling half Y. Correct by adding shims of thickness
equal to half of the indicator reading from each driver
foot.
NOTE: Equal amounts of shims must be added to or
removed from each driver foot. Otherwise the vertical
angular alignment will be affected.
4.Repeat steps 1 through 3 until indicator P reads within
.002 in. (.05 mm) or less when hot, or per Table 1
when cold.
Horizontal Correction (Side-to-Side)
1.Zero indicator P on the left side of coupling half Y,
90° from top dead center (9 o‘clock).
2.Rotate indicators through top dead center to the right
side, 180° from the start (3 o‘clock). Observe needle
and record reading.
3.Negative Reading - Coupling half Y is to the left of
coupling half X. Correct by sliding driver evenly in
the appropriate direction.
NOTE: Failure to slide motor evenly will affect
horizontal angular correction.
4.Repeat steps 1 through 3 until indicator P reads .002
in. (.05 mm) or less.
5.Re-check both horizontal and vertical readings to
ensure adjustment of one did not disturb the other.
Correct as necessary.

PIPING
GENERAL
Guidelines for piping are given in the “Hydraulic Institute
Standards” available from: Hydraulic Institute, 30200
Detroit Road, Cleveland, OH 44145-1967 and must be
reviewed prior to pump installation.
3420 IOM 08/0921
Page 26
A
!WARNING
s
Never draw piping into place by forcing at the flanged
connections of the pump. This may impose dangerous
strains on the unit and cause misalignment between
pump and driver. Pipe strain will adversely effect the
operation of the pump resulting in physical injury and
damage to the equipment.
1.All piping must be supported independently of, and
line up naturally with, the pump flanges.
2.Piping runs should be as short as possible to minimize
friction losses.
3.DO NOT connect piping to pump until grout has
hardened and pump and driver hold-down bolts have
been tightened.
4.It is suggested that expansion loops or joints be
properly installed in suction and/or discharge lines
when handling liquids at elevated temperatures, so
linear expansion of piping will not draw pump out of
alignment.
!WARNING
s
All expansion joints should be properly supported,
anchored, and restrained. Failure to do so may result
in serious physical injury if the expansion joint fails.
5.The piping should be arranged to allow pump flushing
prior to removal of the unit on services handling
corrosive liquids.
6.Carefully clean all pipe parts, valves and fittings, and
pump branches prior to assembly.
straight pipe between the elbow and the pump suction
flange.
3.Use suction pipe one or two sizes larger than the
pump suction, with a reducer at the suction flange.
Suction piping should never be of smaller diameter
than the pump suction.
4.Reducers, if used, should be eccentric, at the pump
suction flange, with sloping side down.
5.Pump must never be throttled on suction side.
6.Suction strainers, when used, must have a net “free
area” of at least three times the suction pipe area.
7.Separate suction lines are recommended when more
than one pump is operating from the same source of
supply.
Suction Lift Conditions
1.Suction pipe must be free from air pockets.
2.Suction piping must slope upwards to pump.
3.All joints must be air tight.
4.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 the suction
line at least two pipe diameters from the suction to
permit closing of the line for pump inspection and
maintenance.
2.Keep suction pipe free from air pockets.
3.Piping should be level or slope gradually downward
from the source of supply.
SUCTION PIPING
!WARNING
s
NPSHAmust always exceed NPSHRas shown on Goulds
performance curves received with order. Reference
Hydraulic Institute for NPSH and pipe friction values
needed to evaluate 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 two pipe
diameters of straight pipe between the elbow and
suction inlet. Where used, elbows should be long
radius.
2.If an elbow must be used at the suction flange, it must
be in the vertical position only. If an elbow must be
used in other than a vertical position, it is permissable
only by providing a minimum of two diameters of
4.No portion of the piping should extend below pump
suction flange.
5.The size of entrance from supply should be one or two
sizes larger than the suction pipe.
6.The suction pipe must be adequately submerged
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 the check valve between
isolation valve and pump, this will permit inspection
of the check valve. The isolation valve is required for
priming, regulation of flow, and for inspection and
maintenance of pump. The check valve prevents
pump or seal damage due to reverse flow through the
pump when the driver is turned off.
2.Increasers, if used, should be placed between pump
and check valves.
223420 IOM 08/09
Page 27
3.Cushioning devices should be used to protect the
pump from surges and water hammer if quick- closing
valves are installed in system.
FINAL PIPING CHECK
After connecting the piping to pump:
1.Rotate shaft several times by hand to be sure that
there is no binding and all parts are free.
2.Check alignment, per the alignment procedure
outlined previously to determine absence of pipe
strain. If pipe strain exists, correct piping.

COUPLE PUMP & DRIVER
!WARNING
s
Lock out driver power to prevent accidental rotation
and physical injury.
1.Install and lubricate the coupling per the
manufacturer’s instructions.
The coupling used in an ATEX classified

Page 30
2.Install the coupling guard (Fig. 13). Refer to the
Coupling Guard Installation and Disassembly Section
(Appendix I).
The coupling guard used in an ATEX classified
!
environment must be constructed from a
non-sparking material.
!WARNING
s
Never operate a pump without the coupling guard
installed. Personal injury will occur if the pump is run
without the coupling guard.
Leakage of process liquid may result in creating an
!
explosive atmosphere. Ensure the materials of the
pump casing, impeller, shaft, sleeves, gaskets and
seals are compatible with the process liquid.
A build up of gases within the pump, sealing system
!
and or process piping system may result in an
explosive environment within the pump or process
piping system. Ensure process piping system, pump
and sealing system are properly vented prior to
operation.
LUBRICATING BEARINGS
Bearings must be lubricated properly in order to
!
prevent excess heat generation, sparks and
premature failure.
Cooling systems such as those for bearing
!
lubrication, mechanical seal systems, etc, where
provided, must be operating properly to prevent
excess heat generation, sparks and premature
failure.
Rotate shaft by hand to ensure it rotates smoothly
!
and there is no rubbing which could lead to excess
heat generation and or sparks.
Ensure that pump and systems are free of foreign
!
objects before operating and that objects cannot
enter the pump during operation. Foreign objects in
the pumpage or piping system can cause blockage of
flow which can result in excess heat generation,
sparks and premature failure.

Pumps are shipped without oil.
Oil Lubrication: Oil lubricated pumps are not lubricated at
the factory. Constant level oilers are supplied with oil
lubricated pumps. The oiler can be found in the box of
fittings that accompanied the pump during shipment. The
oiler was adjusted to maintain the proper oil level before
leaving the factory. The adjustment should be checked in
case the setting was disturbed during shipment. See Figure
14. The correct dimensions for A and B are given in Table
2. Fill the bearing housing with oil using the oil bottle.
Continue to refill the oil bottle until oil stops draining from
the oiler into the housing. See Table 4 for recommended
oil.
CAUTION
Instructions
1. Remove adjustment
assembly from oiler.
2. Adjust bars to dim. "A".
3. Lock in position.

degauss the shaft if there is any detectable
magnetism. Magnetism will attract ferritic objects to
the impeller, seal and bearings which can result in
excess heat generation, sparks and premature
failure.
Pure/Purge Oil Mist: For pure oil mist, connect the oil
mist system according to the manufacturer's
recommendations. For purge oil mist, connect the oil mist
system per the manufacturers instructions. Fill the pump
with oil as detailed for oil lubrication above. In both cases,
refer to the pump dimensional drawing for the location of
the oil mist connections to the bearing housings. See Table

recommended that additional or replacement lubrication be
added after every 2,000 hours or at three month intervals.
The lubricant should be renewed in the housings at least
once each year. See Table 5 (p. 35) for recommended
greases.
If the pump is put into operation after a prolonged
shut-down, flush out the bearing housings with a light oil
to remove any contaminants. During flushing, rotate the
shaft slowly by hand. Finally, flush the bearing housing
with the proper lubricating oil to ensure oil quality after
cleaning.

pressure for clean pumpages. For an abrasive pumpage, the
2
flush water pressure should be 30-50 psi (2.1-3.5 kg/cm
)
above the suction pressure.
NOTE: A product flush can be used if a clean
pumpage exists.
NOTE: Most packing requires lubrication. Failure to
lubricate the packing may shorten the life of the
packing and the pump.
Fig. 17
$
CAUTION
Follow instructions to ensure the lantern ring is
located at the flushing connection. Otherwise, no
flush will be obtained.
6.Install the gland halves. Bolt the gland halves together
and mount on gland studs. Tighten gland nuts.
Connection of Sealing Liquid: If the stuffing box pressure
is above atmospheric pressure and the pumpage is clean,
normal gland leakage of 40-60 drops per minute is usually
sufficient to lubricate and cool the packing. Sealing liquid
then, is not required.
An external sealing liquid is required when:
1.Abrasive particles in the pumpage could score the
shaft sleeve.
2.Stuffing box pressure is below atmospheric pressure
due to the pump running with suction lift or when the
suction source is under a vacuum. Under these
conditions, packing will not be cooled and lubricated
and air will be drawn into the pump.
If an outside source of clean compatible liquid is required,
the pressure should be 15 psi (1.0 kg/cm
2
) above the suction

PRIMING THE PUMP
Never start the pump until it has been properly primed.
Several different methods of priming can be used,
depending on the type of installation and service involved.
Suction Supply Below Pump
A. Priming with a Foot Valve - With the pump installed on
a suction lift and with a foot valve at the end of the suction
line, priming can be done any of the following three ways:
Pumps must be fully primed at all times during
!
operation.
!WARNING
s
If the pump is run dry, rotating parts within the pump
may seize to non-moving parts. This may result in
serious physical injury.
Suction Supply Above Pump
When the pump is installed as shown in Fig. 18, the pump
will prime itself.

1.Close the discharge valve.
2.Remove the vent plugs or open the vent valves on the
top of the pump and the two suction lobes.
1.Close the discharge valve.
2.Open the suction valve.
3.Remove the vent plugs or open the vent valves on the
top of the pump and the two suction lobes until all air
is expelled and fluid flows through the openings.
4.Replace the vent plugs or close the vent valves.
5.Start the pump and open the discharge valve.
The pump will continue to be primed for any future
starting. This method is the simplest and, particularly for
automatic operation, the safest. A float switch in the
suction reservoir can be arranged to stop the pump, should
the liquid supply fall below minimum levels.
3.Open the valve in the priming supply line. Fill the
pump until all air is expelled and fluid flows through
the vents.
4.Replace the vent plugs or close the vent valves and
close the valve in the priming supply line.
5.Start the pump and open the discharge valve.
The pump will continue to be primed for any future
starting.

Priming with an Ejector (Fig. 22)
1.Close the discharge valve.
On suction lift applications, an ejector (operated by steam,
compressed air, or pressurized water) connected to the top
of the casing (priming or vent connection) can be used to
remove air from the casing and suction line, thus priming
the pump.
Fig. 22

4.Slowly open the discharge valve until the desired flow
is obtained.
2.Fully close or partially open the discharge valve as
dictated by system conditions.
3.Start the driver.
$
Immediately observe the pressure gauges. If the
discharge pressure is not quickly attained, stop the
driver, reprime, and attempt to restart.
CAUTION
OPERATION
GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Always vary the capacity by regulating the discharge valve.
NEVER throttle the flow from the suction side.
The driver may overload if the pumpage specific gravity
(fluid density) is greater than originally stated or if the flow
rate is exceeded.
Always operate the pump at or near the rated conditions to
prevent damage resulting from cavitation or recirculation.
$
Observe the pump for vibration levels, bearing
temperature, and excessive noise. If normal levels are
exceeded, shut down the pump and troubleshoot the
problem.
CAUTION
OPERATING AT REDUCED CAPACITY
!WARNING
s
DO NOT operate the pump below the minimum rated
flow or with the suction and/or discharge valves closed.
These conditions may create an explosive hazard due to
vaporization of the pumpage. This can quickly lead to
pump failure and physical injury. Refer to Appendix II
for the pump's minimum flow.
Damage occurs from:
1.Increased vibration levels - This affects the bearings,
stuffing box, and mechanical seal (if supplied).
3420 IOM 8/0931
Page 36
2.Increased radial loads - Increases stress on the shaft
and increases loads on the bearings.
3.Heat build up - Vaporization of the pumpage may
cause the rotating parts to score or seize.
4.Cavitation - Damages the internal surfaces of the
pump.
SHUTDOWN
OPERATING UNDER FREEZING
CONDITIONS
Exposure to freezing conditions, while the pump is idle,
could cause the liquid to freeze and damage the pump.
Liquid inside the pump should be drained. Liquid inside
cooling coils, if supplied, should also be drained.
1.Slowly close the discharge valve.
2.Shut down and lock out the driver to prevent
accidental rotation.
!WARNING
s
Lock out driver power to prevent accidental rotation
and physical injury.
FINAL ALIGNMENT
1.Run the unit under actual operating conditions for a
sufficient length of time to bring the pump and driver
up to the normal operating temperature.
!WARNING
s
When handling hazardous and/or toxic fluids, proper
personal protective equipment should be worn. If the
pump is being drained, precautions must be taken to
prevent physical injury. The pumpage must be handled
and disposed of in conformance with the applicable
environmental regulations.
2.Check the alignment while the unit is at the normal
operating temperature per the alignment procedure in
Section 3.
3.Reinstall the coupling guard. Refer to the coupling
guard instructions in Appendix I.

standard on all model 3420 pumps. Oil lubricated pumps
are supplied with oilers which maintain a constant oil level
in the bearing housings. Each oiler should be installed and
the pump lubricated as follows:
1.Check the oiler adjustment prior to installing the oiler,
refer to Table 2 for the proper oiler setting.
2.Install one oiler in each bearing housing.
$
Do not fill the bearing housings with oil through any
connection other than the oiler connection. This can
result in an improper oil level which may shorten the
life of the bearings and cause damage to the pump.

3.Fill each oiler bottle with oil and replace the oiler
bottle in its housing. The oil will drain into the
bearing housing. Several refills will be required. Oil
will be at the proper level in the housings when oil
remains in the bottle. Do not fill the bearing housings
with oil through any other bearing housing
connection. Refer to Table 2 (p. 27) for setting and
Table 3 for volume.
A high quality turbine oil with rust and oxidation inhibitors
should be used. For the majority of operational conditions,
bearing temperatures will run between 120°F (50° C) and
180° F (82° C). In this range, an oil of ISO viscosity grade
68 at 100° F (40° C) is recommended. If bearing
temperatures exceed 180° F (82° C) use ISO viscosity
grade 100. See Table 4 for oil requirements.
Some acceptable lubricants are:

For most operating conditions, a lithium based mineral oil
grease of NGLI consistency No. 2 is recommended. This
grease is acceptable for bearing temperatures of 5° Fto
230° F (-15° Cto110° C). Bearing temperatures are
generally 20° F (18° C) higher than the bearing housing
outer surface temperature. See Table 5 for acceptable
greases.

$
Never mix greases of different consistency (1 or 3 with
NGLI 2) or different thickener. For example, never
mix a lithium based grease with a polyurea based
grease.
NOTE: If it is necessary to change the grease type or
consistency, the bearings must be removed and the old
grease removed.
!CAUTION
5
GREASE LUBRICATED BEARINGS
Grease lubricated bearings are lubricated at the
factory. Regrease the bearings every 2,000 operating hours
or every three months, whichever comes first.
NOTE: When regreasing, there is a danger of
impurities entering the bearing housing. The grease
container, the greasing device, and the fittings must be
clean.
To grease the bearings:
1.Remove relief plugs on the bearing end covers.
2.Insert grease through the grease fittings while the
shaft is rotating, until grease appears through the
relief plug holes.
3.Operate the unit for approximately 30 minutes with
the relief holes open to prevent overgreasing. After 30
minutes, replace the relief plugs.
NOTE: The bearing temperatures usually rise after
regreaseing due to an excess supply of grease.
Temperatures will return to normal after the pump has
run and purged the excess grease from the bearings.
This usually takes two to four hours.

BEARING REMOVAL
Ball Bearings
A puller, such as the one shown in Figures 23 and 24,
should be used. The puller bar must be square with the end
of the shaft at all times in order to keep even pressure on
the outer circumference of the bearing. The puller screw
should be tightened steadily to enable the bearing to slide
smoothly off the shaft. Do not damage the end of the shaft.
Fig. 23
Fig. 25
Fig. 26
Fig. 24
On the SX/MX units, the bearing housings slide off the
bearings and the puller, such as the one shown in Figures
25 and 26, should be used. This type of puller applies force
directly against the bearing itself. The puller bar must be
square with the end of the shaft at all times and the puller
screw should be tightened steadily to enable the bearings to
slide smoothly off the shaft. Do not damage the end of the
shaft.
Roller Bearings
1.Screw the adapter sleeve removal nut (furnished in the
box of fittings which accompanied the pump) onto the
adapter sleeves (item 521). Tightening the nut will
"jack" the sleeves out from under the inner race of the
bearings.
Fig. 27
2.Slide the adapter sleeves and bearings off of the shaft
and protect them from contamination. Unscrew the
adapter removal nut and store it for future use.

MAINTENANCE OF SHAFT SEALS
MECHANICAL SEALS
When mechanical seals are furnished, a manufacturers
reference drawing is supplied with the data package. This
drawing should be kept for future use when performing
maintenance and adjusting the seal. The seal drawing will
also specify required flush liquid and tapped connections.
The seal and all the flush piping must be checked and
installed as needed, prior to starting the pump.
The mechanical seal must have an appropriate seal
!
flush system. Failure to do so will result in excess
heat generation and seal failure.
Leakage of process liquid may result in creating an
!
explosive atmosphere. Follow all pump and seal
assembly procedures.
The life of a mechanical seal depends on various factors
such as cleanliness of the liquid handled and its lubricating
properties. Due to the diversity of the operating conditions
it is, however, not possible to give definite indications as to
its life.
!WARNING
s
Never operate the pump without liquid supplied to the
mechanical seal. Running a mechanical seal dry, even
for a few seconds, can cause seal damage and must be
avoided. Physical injury can occur if the mechanical
seal fails.
The mechanical seal used in an ATEX classified
!
environment must be properly certified.
Sealing systems that are not self purging or self
!
venting, such as plan 23, require manual venting
prior to operation. Failure to do so will result in
excess heat generation and seal failure.
PACKED STUFFING BOX
!WARNING
s
Lock out driver power to prevent accidental start-up
and physical injury.
The stuffing box is not packed at the factory and must be
packed properly before operating the pump. The packing is
furnished in the box of fittings which accompanies the
pump. The packing used must be suitable for the pumpage.
Make sure the stuffing box is clean. Examine the shaft
sleeve for wear or scoring, replace if necessary. Refer to
Preparation for Start-up (p. 25) for packing installation
instructions.

INSPECTION AND OVERHAUL
The model 3420 parts must be inspected to the following
criteria before they are reassembled to ensure the pump will
run properly. Any part not meeting the required criteria
should be replaced.
GENERAL
Clean all parts before assembly. This is especially
important at all O-ring grooves, threads, and bearing areas.
Remove any burrs. Replace all o-rings. Inspect labyrinth
seals for rubbing and wear. Replace as required. Replace
all lip (grease) seals. Inspect the oil rings. Replace if worn
excessively. Inspect and replace as necessary the
mechanical seal and/or its components per the
manufacturer’s instructions.
CASING
The casing (100) should be inspected for excessive wear or
pitting, particularly at the cutwater areas. It should be
repaired or replaced if the wear or pitting exceeds 1/8 in
depth. The parting gasket surfaces on both the upper and
lower halves should be cleaned and inspected for any
irregularities.
PARTING GASKET
Inspect the parting flange gaskets (351S and 351D) and
replace if torn or otherwise damaged. The recommended
gasket materials are Garlock Blue Gard 3000™ or
Armstrong N8090. See Table 8 for the correct gasket
thickness. Use the upper half casing as a template. Strike
the sheet with a soft face hammer. This will cut the gasket
against the edge of the casing.
The gasket must cover the entire surface of the parting
flange. Pay special attention to the areas around the wear
ring locks.
NOTE: If the area around the wear ring locks are not
properly sealed, leakage will occur from the high to the
low pressure zones in the pump. This will result in lost
performance and efficiency.
For pumps with mechanical seals, cut the gasket
approximately ¼ in (6.35 mm) long at the face of the
stuffing box. This excess then should be trimmed to a
perfect fit after the pump casing is assembled.
NOTE: SX and MX pump parting flange gaskets are
supplied with pre-cut outer edges and fastener holes.
IMPELLER
Inspect the impeller (101) and replace if there is excessive
wear due to erosion or corrosion, particularly at the leading
and trailing edges of the impeller vanes. If the impeller
needs to be trimmed, it should be balanced to the tolerances
in Table 7. Determine whether a single plane or a two
plane spin balance is required by calculating the diameter to
width ratio of the trimmed impeller. Imbalance can be
corrected by grinding on the outside of the shrouds near the
impeller periphery. The impeller bore diameter should be
measured to ensure a proper fit on the shaft. Refer to Table
8 for the correct tolerances. Contact your Goulds
representative for special requirements on Lo-Pulse
impellers or rotating elements.

$
Take care not to chip any internal coatings that may
have been applied to the casing’s internal passages. If
the casing has an internal coating, it may be easier to
cut the gasket using a knife.

To replace the impeller wear rings
1.Remove the old rings by removing the three set
screws (320) and pulling the ring (142) off of the
impeller hub.
2.Clean the impeller hub and press on a new wear ring.
3.Drill and tap three holes in the ring/hub seam 120°
apart, offset from the original setscrew holes. Insert
new setscrews (320) and lightly upset the threads.
NOTE: Replacement impeller wear rings are supplied
.020-.030 in. oversized and must be turned to size (see)
after mounting on the impeller. SX and MX size rings
are supplied turned to the finished diameter.
Fig. 52
SHAFT
Inspect the shaft (122) for runout to verify the shaft is
straight. See Fig. 53 for proper shaft runout inspection.
Inspect the bearing seats and the impeller seats. Verify
they are the correct size and free from any scratches or
grooves. Bearing fits and tolerances are found in Table 10.
The shaft threads must be in good condition. Inspect the
keyways for burrs or foreign matter. Replace the shaft if
necessary.
The shaft sleeve (126) surface in the stuffing box area must
be smooth and free of grooves. If grooved, replace the
sleeve. The O-ring groove must be in good condition.
Check the diametrical clearance between the sleeve and the
stuffing box bushing. See Figure 54. The original
clearance is shown in Table 8. If the clearance has
increased more than .030 in. (.762 mm). The shaft sleeve
and/or the stuffing box bushing should be replaced.
BEARING HOUSINGS
Visually inspect the interior of the housings (134, 134A,
134D, or 166) for damage, cracks, corrosion, scale, or
debris. Remove all loose and foreign materials. Make sure
all lubrication passages are clear. Inspect the bearing bores
according to the tolerances in Table 10. Replace the
housings if they are out of tolerance.
BEARINGS
Ball and roller bearings (112, 168, 409 and 410) should be
inspected for contamination and damage. The condition of
the bearings will provide useful information on operating
conditions in the bearing housing. Lubricant condition and
residue should be noted. Oil analysis is often helpful in
diagnosing conditions and/or problems. Bearing damage
should be investigated to determine the cause. If the cause
is not normal wear, it should be corrected before the pump
is returned to service. It is not recommended that
anti-friction bearings be reused after they have been
disassembled and inspected.

6.L, LDS, XL, and XXL frames use spherical roller
bearings mounted on tapered sleeves which require
tightening of the bearing locknut to draw the bearing
up on the taper. Correct tightening of the locknut is
accomplished by measuring the clearance before and
after tightening to arrive at a given change in bearing
clearnace. Once this change in clearance has been
reached, the bearing is correctly mounted on the
sleeve. The minumum clearance after tightening
should also not be less than the given value. The
following steps describe how this is accomplished:
a.With the bearing axis horizontal and no upward force
on the bearing outer race, rotate the inner race such
that a set of rollers is at the bottom. Measure the
clearance between the bottom roller OD and the ID of
the bearing outer race using a feeler gauge. Record
this value.
b.Tighten the locknut (136) until a reduction
(measurement from Step 6a minus the measurement
after tightening of the locknut) in bearing clearance is
reached as given below. Also, verify the minimum
clearance is not less than the value given below.
Rotate the bearing through 90 degree increments and
verify the clearance in a few positions.
