PUMP DESCRIPTION

The model CV3171 is a vertical vortex, recessed
open impeller pump that generates pressure head
by creating a vortex in the casing. Use of a
recessed impeller allows for solids, entrained air, or
shear sensitive liquid handling.

The model is based on 1 power end and 8 hydraulic
pump sizes:

2X2-8 2X2-10 3X3-10
2X3-13 3X4-13

LF 1x1.5-8 LF 1x2-10 LF 1.5x3-13

Casing: The casing of the CV3171 is concentric
volute and available with optional connections for
venting, flushing and solids clean out.

Impeller: The impeller of the CV3171 is fully open,
has curved vanes, and is threaded to the shaft. The
LF sizes have straight radial vanes and are
threaded to the shaft. The threads are sealed from
the pumpage by a Teflon O-ring.

Strainer: The strainer is a basket type with
openings sized to prevent the entrance of large
solids commonly ending up in open sumps.

Power End: The power end of this pump is
identical to the 3171 power end. It consists of the
motor, coupling, motor mount, support plate,
double-row ball thrust bearing, shaft, column pipe
header, steady bearings, and column pipe
extension.

Bearings: The thrust bearing is a grease or oil-mist
lubricated double row angular contact ball bearing.
It is shouldered and locked to the shaft and the
housing enabling it to carry all of the thrust loads
and some of the radial load. All fits are precision
machined to industry standards. The steady
bearings are press fit sleeve bearings. Fits are
designed for optimum life under all operating
conditions.

Seals: The standard CV3171 has three seals.

 An upper labyrinth seal is used to exclude dirt

and water from the thrust bearing.

 A lower grease seal is used below the thrust

bearing to contain the grease and exclude any
possible contamination.

 A carbon Teflon casing collar is installed

immediately behind the impeller in the adapter
to minimize recirculation back to the sump,
thereby maximizing hydraulic efficiency.

Discharge Elbow: The discharge elbow is a short
radius elbow that provides compact size and
minimum profile.

Direction of Rotation: Clockwise (right hand) as
viewed from the driver, looking at the pump shaft.

Maximum Solids Size: For CV3171 pumps, the
max. solids size is 1.875 in. for 2” discharge and

2.875 in. for 3” discharge. Refer to the current
pump curve for maximum solids capabilities.

12 CV#3171#IOM#05/11#

Steady Bearings:

1. Carbon and Carbon Filled Teflon - These
bearings are chemically inert in most liquids
and can be used in liquids up to the
temperature limits of the pump. They should
not be used in liquids containing abrasive
solids. Clear flush from the support plate is
required.

2. Fluted Rubber or Viton - These bearings
consist of fluted rubber or Viton contained
within a metal shell. Clear water from an
outside source, 1 to 2 GPM, is required to each
bearing housing. They are ideally suited for
liquids containing abrasive solids but are limited
to 160°F temperature liquid. Corrosion resistant
shafting is required.

3. Metallic Bearing - Bronze steady bearings are
available and must be grease lubricated. Lack
of lubrication can lead to galling and eventual
seizing. It becomes extremely difficult to keep
enough grease in the housing when handling
hot liquids, caustic solutions or solvents.
Unless an adequate maintenance program
exists, it is recommended that a self-lubricating
bearing such as carbon be used in place of the
metallic bearing.

4. Sealed Bearings - Recommended for abrasive
liquids where no outside flush is available. The
carbon bearing is sealed within the housing by
two lip seals and filled by grease via pressure
lubricator located above the support plate. The
pressure cup must be kept full of grease. The
control screw on the pressure cup should be
wide open to start and then controlled by
usage.

NAMEPLATE INFORMATION

Pump Nameplate – Every pump has a Goulds nameplate that provides information about the pump. The tag is

located on the motor support. When ordering spare parts you will need to identify pump model, size, serial
number, and the item number of required parts. Information can be found in this manual. Part numbers can also
be found on the Repair Data Sheet supplied with the original pump data package.

RECEIVING THE PUMP

Inspect the pump as soon as it is received.
Carefully check that everything is in good order.
Make notes of damaged or missing items on the
receipt and freight bill. File any claims with the
transportation company as soon as possible.

STORAGE REQUIREMENTS

Short Term: (Less than 6 months) Goulds normal

packaging is via a skid. It is designed to protect
the pump during shipping only. Upon receipt,
store in a covered and dry location.

Long Term: (More than 6 months) Preservative
treatment of bearings and machined surfaces is
required. Rotate the shaft several times every
three months making sure that the shaft does not
stop in the same place as it may sag. Refer to
driver and coupling manufacturers for their
recommended long-term storage procedures.
Store in covered dry location.

NOTE: Long term storage treatment can be
purchased with the initial pump order.

HANDLING

WARNING

Pump and components are heavy. Failure to

properly lift and support equipment
could result in serious physical injury
or damage to pumps. Steel toe shoes
must be worn at all times.

Use care when moving pumps. Lifting equipment
must be able to adequately support the entire
assembly. Position the pump where it can be
handled without dragging the casing on the ground
or moving the lifting equipment while the pump is
off the ground. Use the lifting lugs supplied with
the unit and suitable slings to lift the entire pump
to a vertical position (Figure 2). A tag line should
be attached to the casing end to prevent the pump
from swinging and possibly causing damage or
injury. Lower the unit into the sump. The motor
should then be hoisted into position using the
lifting lugs on the motor and a suitable sling
(Figure 3).

INSPECTION

Equipment that will operate in a
potentially explosive

environment must be installed
in accordance with the following
instructions.

All equipment being installed
must be properly grounded to

prevent unexpected static
electric discharge. If not, a static
electric discharge may occur when the
pump is drained and disassembled for
maintenance purposes.

Service temperature in an

ATEX classified environment

is limited by Table 1 in the
ATEX identification section.

1. Remove all equipment from shipping

containers.

2. Completely clean the underside of the

support plate, and both sides of the
optional pit cover (if supplied).

3. Remove any grease from machined

surfaces if applicable.

CAUTION
Remove plastic shipping plugs
from the vent holes in the head

column and casing. Refer to Figure 4 for
locations.

Figure#4#

16 CV#3171#IOM#05/11#

SITE/FOUNDATION

The pump should be located where there is
adequate space for installation, operation,
maintenance, and inspection. Make sure there is
adequate overhead clearance for installing and
removing the pump. There should be at least 1/2”
clearance between the sides of the pump and
any portion of the pit.

Vertical sump pumps are normally bolted to a
concrete sump or steel tank. The supporting
structure must provide a permanent rigid support

for the pumping unit(s) to eliminate any possible
vibration. Support plates and/or pit covers are not
normally grouted in place. The location and size
of the mounting bolt holes are shown on the
pump outline drawing provided with the pump
data package. If anchor bolts are to be poured
into the concrete, it is recommended that a
sleeve type as shown in Figure 5 be used to
allow for adjustment.

WHEN PIT COVER IS USED

If access to the bottom of the pit cover is not
possible during the installation process, the
pump (less motor), support plate and pit cover
must be assembled and installed as a unit.

1. The pit cover must be installed level to insure
that the pump remains plumb when installed.

2. Carefully lower pit cover foundation bolts.

3. Using as long a level as practical, level the
pit cover in all directions with shims or
wedges.

4. Hand tighten the anchor bolts, check the
level and re-shim if necessary.

5. Tighten all anchor bolts in a star pattern to
avoid distorting the support plate.

6. If access to the bottom side is possible,
carefully lower the pump and support plate
onto the pit cover.

7. Install all bolts finger tight.

8. Check level on support plate and shim if
necessary.

9. Tighten all bolts in a star pattern to avoid
distorting the support plate.

Vapor Proof Option

The vapor proof option includes machined,
gasketed fits between the support plate/pit cover
and the pit cover/foundation. These gaskets
must be installed to insure emissions
performance. The pit cover should be bolted to a
metal sole plate with a machined surface to
insure an airtight seal.

Figure#5#

Figure 5

CV#3171#IOM#05/11# 17

NO PIT COVER

Standard Support Plates

1. Carefully lower the pump and support plate onto
the foundation bolts.

2. Level the support plate in all directions using
shims and wedges.

3. Hand tighten the anchor bolts, check the level
and re-shim if necessary.

4. Tighten all anchor bolts in a star pattern to avoid
distorting the support plate.

5. Assure that the support plate is level.

Vapor Proof Option

The support plate/foundation fit is a gasketed fit.
The support plate should be bolted to a metal sole
plate with a machined surface to insure an airtight
seal. Refer to Figure 6 for standard layout. A gasket
is supplied for installation between the two flanges
to insure an airtight fit.

Tank Flange Support Plates

1. Mating flange on the tank must be level. Very
minor adjustments can be made with gasket
material between the two flanges.

2. Install all bolts finger tight.

3. Tighten all bolts in a star pattern to avoid any
distortion of the support plate.

IMPELLER CLEARANCE SETTING

Adjust the impeller clearance setting. This
procedure is easiest to perform without the motor

and coupling installed. See Section 5, “Impeller
Clearance Setting” for proper procedure.

MOTOR INSTALLATION AND COUPLING ALIGNMENT

The Model CV3171 is designed for use with NEMA
Vertical C-face motors. P-Base motor adapters and
IEC motor adapters are available as options.

Installation

1. Install both coupling halves prior to mounting
the motor. Refer to the coupling manufacturers
instructions.

2. Using the lifting lugs on the motor, carefully
lower the motor onto the pump and align the
bolt holes.

3. Install motor bolts and finger tight.

4. Before the coupling is connected, the motor
must be wired and the direction of rotation
checked. A rotation arrow is located on the
motor support. Correct rotation for the pump is
CW looking down from the driver at the
impeller.

Checking Rotation

CAUTION
Serious damage may result if pump is
run in the wrong direction.

WARNING
Lock out power to prevent accidental
start-up and physical injury.

1. Lock out power to driver.

2. Make sure coupling hubs are securely
fastened to shafts.

3. Ensure all persons and material are clear of
pump.

4. Unlock driver power.

5. Bump motor and observe rotation. Correct if
required.

Alignment of Flexible Coupling

WARNING
Before beginning any alignment
procedure, make sure the driver power
is locked out. Failure to lockout driver

power will result in serious physical injury.

Alignment of the pump and motor is of extreme
importance for trouble-free mechanical operation.
Straight edge alignment by an experienced
installer proves adequate for most installations. For
disc couplings and applications where it is felt that
alignment to tighter tolerances is desirable, use
dial indicators. Standard dial indicator procedures
would apply.

Alignment procedures must be
followed to prevent unintended

contact of rotating parts. Follow
coupling manufacturer’s installation and
operation procedures.

When installing in a potentially

explosive environment, ensure that the

motor is properly certified.

The coupling used in an ATEX

classified environment must be

properly certified.

Straight Edge Alignment

1. Check for coupling alignment by laying a
straight edge across both coupling rims at four
points 90 degree apart.

2. Move motor until straight edge rests evenly at
each position. Repeat procedure until correct
alignment is achieved.

3. Install flexible sleeve between the hubs per the
manufacturer’s directions included with the
pump data package.

4. Tighten all motor bolts.

Coupling Guard

WARNING
Never operate a pump without
coupling guard properly installed.
Personal injury will occur if pump is

run without coupling guard.

1. Install coupling guard (See Figure 7) by
wrapping the expanded metal shield (501)
around the motor support and installing the two
guard springs (501L).

Figure#7#

CV#3171#IOM#05/11# 19

PIPING

General

Guidelines for piping are given in the “Hydraulic
Institute Standards” available from: Hydraulic
Institute, 9 Sylvan Way, Parsippany, NJ, 07054­3802 and must be reviewed prior to pump
installation.

1. All piping must be supported independently of,
and line up naturally with, the pump discharge
pipe.

2. Piping runs should be as short as possible to
minimize friction losses.

3. DO NOT connect piping to pump until the
anchor bolts have been tightened.

4. Carefully clean all pipe parts, valves and fittings,
prior to assembly.

5. Isolation and check valves should be installed in
the discharge line. Locate the check valve
between the isolation valve and the pump in
order to permit inspection of the check valve.
The isolation valve is required for inspection of
the pump and flow regulation. The check valve
prevents pump damage due to reverse flow
through the pump when the driver is turned off.

6. Increasers, if used, should be installed between
the pump and check valve to minimize friction
losses through the check valve.

7. Cushioning devices should be used to protect
the pump from surges and water hammer if
quick closing valves are installed in the system.

Suction Piping - For Optional Dry Pit,
Outside Tank Mount, and Tailpipe
Applications ONLY

WARNING
NPSHA must always exceed
NPSHR as shown on Goulds
performance curve received with

order. Reference Hydraulic Institute standard for
NPSH and pipe friction values needed to
evaluate suction piping.

1. The general requirement for the pump is to
install an elbow at the pump. Long radius elbows
are recommended. If an elbow can be
eliminated or moved further from the suction, it
would be recommended to do this.

2. Suction piping should never be of a smaller
diameter than the pump suction.

3. Pump should never be throttled on the suction
side.

4. Separate suction lines are recommended when
more than one pump is operating from the same
source of supply.

5. Suction pipe must be free of air pockets.

6. Suction piping must slope upwards to the pump.

7. All joints must be airtight.

8. A means of priming the pump must be provided.
For outside tank mount and dry pit, this is
usually accomplished by allowing the fluid level
inside the tank/pit to rise above the casing level.
In tailpipe applications, the casing must be
submerged prior to starting the pump.

9. For outside tank mount and dry pit applications,
an isolation valve should be installed in the
suction line at least two pipe diameters from the
suction to permit closing the line for pump
inspection and maintenance. Isolation valve
must be kept fully open during operation.

10. The entrance to the suction pipe must be kept
adequately submerged below the free liquid
surface to prevent vortices and air entrainment.

Outside Tank Mount Only

The outside tank mount option has a column
assembly that allows the fluid coming through the
lower bushings to flow up through the column and
back through the connection at the top of the column
back to the tank. The pipe at the top of the pump
column must be connected back to the source tank
to prevent fluid from entering the thrust bearing.

20 CV#3171#IOM#05/11#

WARNING
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.

CAUTION

Pump must never be throttled on
suction side.

CV#3171#IOM#05/11# 21

OPERATION

PREPARATION FOR OPERATION.......................................................................................21

OPERATION...........................................................................................................................23

PREPARATION FOR OPERATION

The following options may be supplied with your
pump. Refer to the original data package to see
which options apply.

WARNING
Operation of the unit without proper
lubrication will cause bearing failure
and pump seizure.

External Bearing Flush

There are five 1/4” NPT pipe plugs on the standard
support plate for connection of up to five flush
lines. Pumps with five or more bearings will have
one for each bearing. Pumps with less than five
bearings will still have five plugs, but only the
required number will be connected to a bearing.
Remove the plugs from the holes that are
connected to flush lines. An external source of
clean water capable of delivering 1-2 GPM to
EACH bearing should be connected to the taps.

NOTE: The flush must be turned on PRIOR to
starting the pump and remain on until the pump
turns off.

Grease Lubricated Bearings

Bearings must be lubricated properly
in order to prevent excess heat
generation, sparks and premature

failure.

Grease lubricated bearings will have zerk fittings
installed for each bearing. Bearings are pre­lubricated at the factory. Unscrew the fittings and
confirm there is adequate grease in the line.
Replace the fitting and add grease if necessary.

Sealed Bearings

Sealed bearings have a lip seal installed above
and below the bearing to exclude grit from the
bearing (Figure 8). Sealed bearings use a spring
loaded grease cup to lubricate the bearings. The
bearings are pre-lubricated at the factory, but the
grease cups may ship in a separate box. The
grease cups should be filled with grease and
screwed into the taps that are connected to the
bearings.

NOTE: The control screw on the pressure cup
should be wide open to start and then
controlled by usage.

The cup should be refilled with fresh grease as
needed. Frequent inspection after startup is
recommended to check usage and establish the
best relubrication interval.

Packed Upper Stuffing Box

Packed stuffing boxes are not allowed
in an ATEX classified environment.

An upper stuffing box is installed for high

Figure 8

4!

22 CV#3171#IOM#05/11#

temperatures and vapor proof construction. The
standard configuration is packed. Since no fluid is
in the column to lubricate the packing, the packing
is grease lubed. The packing is installed at the
factory prior to shipment. A screw type grease cup
is provided for the packed box. Fill the cup with
grease and give the cap several turns to force
grease into the packing. Fresh grease should be
installed on a regular basis to insure constant
lubrication for the packing. Frequent inspection
after startup is recommended to check usage and
establish the best relubrication interval.

Mechanical Seal Upper Stuffing Box

A mechanical seal is frequently supplied on upper
stuffing box applications. The seal is installed and
set at the factory. Cartridge seals will still have the
setting clips installed and should be removed.
Refer to the seal manufacturer’s guidelines for any
special requirements for the particular seal
provided.

The mechanical seal used in an ATEX
classified environment must be
properly certified.

The mechanical seal must always be
properly flushed. Failure to do so will
result in excess heat generation and

seal failure.

WARNING
Some seals require oil lubrication from
a bottle oiler, some are dry running,
and some may require external flush
plans. Do not allow the seal to run dry

unless it is specifically designed for dry
running.

Steam Jacketed Pumps

The steam jacket connections are located on the
support plate. Connect the steam in line to an
appropriate source of steam. The steam
out/condensate return connections should be
made as dictated by the installation requirements.
A suitable trap should be used.

Float Controls

A variety of float controls can be supplied by
Goulds. Refer to the float control installation
instructions provided with the controls for proper
installation procedure. Procedures for some of the
more common controls are provided in Appendix I.

Checking Rotation

Rotation should have been checked prior to
coupling alignment and installation. Refer to
previous section if this has not been done.

Check For Free Turning

Before pump is started, rotate the pump by hand to
be sure it turns freely and does not rub or bind.

Motor Bearing and Coupling

Check to be sure the motor bearings and coupling
are properly lubricated, if required. Refer to
manufacturers recommendations.

Check Impeller Clearance

Improper impeller adjustment could
cause contact between the rotating
and stationary parts, resulting in a

spark and heat generation.

WARNING

Check impeller clearance before

starting pump.

The pump efficiency is maintained when the proper
impeller clearance is set. The clearance is initially
set at the factory. The settings from the factory
could change due to piping attachment. Refer to
Section 5 for procedures on setting impeller
clearance.

Coupling Guard and Safety Devices

Insure coupling guard and any other safety devices
are properly installed.

Priming

Pumps that are not self-priming must
be fully primed at all times during
operation.

Never start the pump until it has been properly
primed. The pump casing should be fully
submerged prior to starting the pump.

CAUTION
Do not run the pump dry, as this may
damage the pump and/or steady
bearings.

CV#3171#IOM#05/11# 23

For Dry Pit/Outside tank mount units:

1. Suction supply line must have adequate fluid
head to prime the pump.

2. Slowly open the suction valve.

Starting the Pump

1. Before the pump is started, the external
bearing flush (if specified) must be started.

2. Make sure the pump shaft is freely rotating.

3. Partially open the discharge valve.

4. Start driver.

5. Slowly open discharge valve until the desired
flow is obtained.

CAUTION
Observe pump for high vibration
levels, bearing temperature, and
excessive noise. If normal levels are

exceeded, shut down and resolve.

Immediately observe pressure gauges. If
discharge pressure is not quickly attained, stop
driver, check submergence level, and attempt to
restart.

Start Up Precautions

1. All equipment and personal safety-related
devices and controls must be installed and
operating properly.

2. To prevent premature pump faiure at initial
start up due to dirt or debris in the pipe
system, ensure the system has been
adequately cleaned and flushed.

3. Variable speed drivers should be brought

to rated speed as quickly as possible.

4. Variable speed drivers should not be
adjusted or checked for speed governor or
overspeed trip settings while coupled to the
pump at initial start up. If settings have not
been verified, uncouple the unit and refer to
driver manufacturer’s instructions for

assistance.

6. Pumpage tempartatures in excess of 200°F
will require warmup of pump prior to
operation. Circulate a small amount of
pumpage through the pump until the casing
temperature is within 100°F of the pumpage
temperature and evenly heated.

CAUTION
When starting pump,
immediately observe pressure
gauges. If discharge pressure
is not quickly attained, stop

driver, reprime, and attempt to restart.

OPERATION

General Considerations

CAUTION
Always vary capacity with
regulating valve in the
discharge line. Never throttle

flow from the suction side.

CAUTION

Driver may overload if the
pumpage specific gravity

(density) is greater than
originally assumed, or the rated flow rate is
exceeded.

CAUTION
Always operate the pump at or
near the rated conditions to
prevent damage resulting from

cavitation or recirculation.

4!

24 CV#3171#IOM#05/11#

Operating At Reduced Capacity

WARNING
DO NOT operate pump below
minimum rated flows or with
discharge valve closed. These

conditions may create an explosive hazard due
to vaporization of pumpage and can quickly
lead to pump failure and physical injury.

A centrifugal pump should never be operated
continuously near shut-off or zero capacity, or with
the discharge valve closed. To do so may shorten
the life of the pump and greatly increase down time
and maintenance.

CAUTION

Damage occurs from:

1. Increased vibration levels - affects
bearings, stuffing box or seal chamber, and
mechanical seal.

2. Increased radial loads – Stresses on shaft
and bearings.

3. Heat buildup - Vaporization causing
rotating parts to score or seize.

4. Cavitation - Damage to internal surfaces of
pump.

CAUTION
Serious damage may result if
the pump is run in the wrong
direction.

CAUTION

Operation of the unit without
proper lubrication will cause
bearing failure, and pump

seizure.

Operating At Reduced Head

On motor driven pumps, when discharge head is
dropped below the rated point, the motor should be
watched for overloading. If this condition is likely
to persist, arrangements should be made to either
manually or automatically throttle the discharge
valve to build up head to prevent overloading.

Operating With Surge Conditions

If pump is installed with a quick closing valve in the
discharge line that closes when the pump is
running, dangerous pressure surges may be built
up that can cause damage to the pump or line.
In services of this kind, some cushioning
arrangement must be provided to protect the
pumping equipment.

Operating Under Freezing Conditions

Exposure to freezing conditions while pump is idle
could cause liquid to freeze and damage the pump.
Liquid inside pump should be drained.

Final Alignment/Clearance Check

1. Run the unit under actual operating conditions
for a sufficient length of time to bring the pump
and driver up to operating temperature.

2. Check alignment while unit is still hot per
alignment procedure.

3. Reinstall coupling guard.

The coupling guard used in an
ATEX classified environment
must be constructed from a

non-sparking material.

GENERAL COMMENTS

A routine maintenance program can extend the life of your pump. Well-maintained
equipment will last longer and require fewer repairs. Accurate records should be kept
as they will identify trends and help pinpoint potential causes of problems.

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE

ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

 Bearing lubrication

 Discharge pressure

 Temperature monitoring

 Vibration analysis

 Seal monitoring (when applicable)

ROUTINE INSPECTIONS

 Check for unusual noise, vibration and thrust

bearing temperatures

 Check float controls for proper setting and

operation

 Inspect pump and piping for leaks
 Check grease for thrust bearing. Refer to

Table 1, Section 5 for lubrication intervals.

 Grease steady bearings if applicable, adjust

grease cups if supplied

 Check upper stuffing box leakage. Adjust or

replace packing if required (when applicable)

3 MONTH INSPECTIONS

 Check anchor bolts for tightness
 If pump has been idle, check carbon steel

shafts (if applicable) for rust and seizing by
rotating the shaft several turns. Replace if
required.

 Ball (thrust) bearing grease should be changed

at least every 3 months or according to Table 1,
whichever occurs first. Change grease more

often if there are any adverse conditions which
may contaminate the grease. Grease should be
injected while turning the shaft until fresh
grease comes out.

• Check coupling alignment and realign if
required

ANNUAL INSPECTIONS

• Check pump capacity, pressure and power. If
pump performance does not satisfy your
process requirements, and process
requirements or the piping system has not
changed, pump should be disassembled,
inspected, and worn parts should be replaced. If
there is no sign of wear, a system inspection
should be done.

The Preventive Maintenance section
must be adhered to in order to keep the

applicable ATEX classification of the
equipment. Failure to follow these procedures
will void the ATEX classification for the
equipment.

Inspection intervals should be
shortened appropriately if the

pumpage is abrasive and/or corrosive,
or if the environment is classified as potentially
explosive.

26 CV#3171#IOM#05/11#

MAINTENANCE OF BALL/STEADY BEARINGS

BALL BEARINGS

The angular contact (thrust) bearing is pre­lubricated at the factory. Regrease the bearing

according to Table 1.

STEADY BEARINGS

Steady bearings requiring grease lubrication are
pre-lubricated at the factory. Most bearings are set
up to automatically dispense lubrication via grease
cups mounted on the support plate.

Metallic steady bearings are grease lubricated. It
becomes difficult to keep grease in the housings
when handling hot liquids, caustic solutions or
solvents. Lack of lubrication can cause galling and
eventual seizing.

Sealed bearings are grease lubricated but they
retain the grease due to their dual seals on top and
bottom. If pressure cups are used they must be
kept full of grease at all times.

If manual greasing is used, regrease according to
Table 1.

REGREASE PROCEDURE ­BALL BEARING:

NOTE: When regreasing there is danger of
impurities entering the bearing shell. The
grease, the greasing device, and fittings must
be clean.

1. Wipe dirt from grease fittings.

2. Fill grease cavity through grease fitting (193B)
on bearing shell (134). Use recommended
grease and fill until fresh grease comes out of
the relief fitting (113) on the opposite side of the
bearing shell (See Figure 9).

3. Wipe excess grease from grease and relief
fittings.

4. Ensure relief port closes.

NOTE: The bearing temperature usually rises
after regreasing due to an excess supply of
grease. Temperature will return to normal after
the pump has run and purged the excess from
the bearings, usually two to four fours.

For most operating conditions a lithium complex
soap based grease of NLGI consistency No. 2 is
recommended. This grease is acceptable for
bearing temperatures of 5°F to 230°F (-15°C to
115°C). Bearing temperatures are generally about
20°F (18°C) higher than bearing housing outer
surface temperature.

CAUTION
Never mix greases of different
consistency (NLGI 1 or 3 with NLGI 2)
or different thickener. For example,

never mix a lithium based grease with a
polyurea based grease.

Figure#9#

CV#3171#IOM#05 /11# 27#

The original grease from the factory is a lithium
based NLGI 2. Table 2 lists some various
manufacturers compatible greases.

Temperature extremes (either high or low) may
require a different grease.

NOTE: If it is necessary to change the grease
type or consistency, the bearing must be
removed and all the old grease eliminated from
the housing and bearing.

Bearings must be lubricated properly
in order to prevent excess heat
generation, sparks and premature

failure.

Throughout this section on bearing
lubrication, different pumpage

temperatures are listed. If the
equipment is ATEX certified and the listed
temperature exceeds the applicable value
shown in Table 1 under ATEX identification,
then that temperature is not valid. Should this
situation occur, please consult with your ITT
Goulds representative.

INSPECTIONS

The pump parts must be inspected to the following
criteria before they are reassembled to insure the
pump will run properly. Any part not meeting the
required criteria should be replaced.

Casing and Adapter

1. The casing (100) and adapter (108A) should be
inspected for excessive wearing or pitting. They
should be replaced if they exceed:

A. Localized wear or grooving greater than

1/8” (3.2 mm) deep.

B. Pitting greater than 1/8” (3.2 mm) deep.

2. Inspect casing gasket seat surface for
irregularities.

3. Check ID of casing collar (155) per the
dimensions in Table 3. If ID is greater than
allowable, pry or pull the casing collar from its
seat on the backside of the adapter (Figure 30).

4. Check ID of the steady bearing (197) per the
dimensions in Table 3. If ID is greater than
allowable, remove the inner and outer retaining
rings (369) and seals (333H) (if applicable),
then press out the steady bearing (197) using a
small press.

5. Check bore of adapter (108A) per Table 3. If
bore is excessive, replace.

6. Inspect casing-to-column connection area for
any cracks or excessive corrosion damage.
Replace if any of these conditions exist.

Impeller

1. Inspect impeller (101) vanes for damage.
Replace if grooved deeper than 1/16” (1.6 mm)
or if worn evenly more than 1/32” (0.8 mm).

2. Inspect back pumpout vanes for damage.
Replace if worn more than 1/32” (0.8 mm).

3. Inspect leading and trailing edges of the vanes
for pitting, erosion, or corrosion damage.

Column Sections

1. Inspect column section(s) (306,192) for any
cracks or excessive corrosion damage. Replace
if any of these conditions exist.

Steady Bearing Housings

1. Check the ID of steady bearings (197) per the
dimensions in Table 3. If ID is greater than
allowable, remove the inner and outer retaining
rings (369) and seals (333H) (if applicable),
then press out the steady bearing (197) using a
small press.

2. Check bore of steady bearing housing (213) per
Table 3. If bore is excessive, replace.

APPENDIX I

FLOAT CONTROLS

Square D 9036 Simplex and 9038
Duplex.

A single float and rod assembly is used with the
9036 float switch on a simplex unit or the 9038
Duplex alternator. Refer to manufacturer’s wiring
diagram for correct wiring of the switch.

1. If a Pit Cover is supplied by Goulds with the
pumps, the holes for the float switch support
pipe (435) and the upper rod guide (337) will be
located and installed by the factory. If the pit
cover is to be supplied by others, it will be
necessary to locate, drill, and tap the holes prior
to installing the switch. See Figure 45 for hole
size and locating procedure.

2. Attach the lower guide arm (366) and the float
rod guide (336) to the correct suction cover bolt
(based on layout) prior to installing the pump in
the sump.

3. Thread the float switch support pipe (435) and
the upper rod guide (337) into the pit cover.

4. Attach float switch bracket (398) to the float
switch support pipe.

5. Install the Float Rod (334), Collars (335), and
Float (342) as shown on figure 46.

The on and off levels are controlled by adjusting the
collars (335). As the liquid level rises, the float rises
to contact the upper collar and the upward
movement of the float rod causes the mechanical
switch inside the control to close, completing the
circuit to the starter. Operation continues until the
liquid level drops low enough for the float to contact
the lower collar. This pulls the rod down opening the
switch and turning off the pump.

The Square D 9038 Duplex Alternator is installed
the same as above. The difference is in the
operating sequence. The first pump will start as the
water level rises allowing the float to contact the
upper collar. When the water level drops down and
shuts off the first pump, a lever arm inside the
control mechanically switches to the second pump
and it will come on for the next cycle.

Should the first pump fail to keep up with demand,
or not come on at all, a continued rise in the level
will turn both pumps on. Both pumps will run until
the low water level is reached. Should both pumps
be unable to keep up with demand, an optional high
water alarm switch can be supplied in the Alternator
to close a switch if the water level rises past the

Figure#46#

Figure 45

7!

48 CV#3171#IOM#05/11#

second pumps on level. This switch can be wired
into a customer-supplied alarm, horn, or light.

APEX High Level Alarm

The APEX high level alarm is an independent
device used to sense fluid level and closes a switch
activating a separate alarm. The switch is mounted
on a pipe above the support plate (Figure 47). The
pipe must extend into the sump 4-6” below the
required actuation point. As the liquid level rises in
the pipe, trapped air causes a bellows inside the
switch to inflate and trips a micro switch. The switch
can then activate a light, horn, relay, solenoid valve,
or other electric device.

APPENDIX II

UPPER STUFFING BOX AND VAPOR PROOF CONSTRUCTION

The Model CV 3171 is normally a sealless design.
When temperatures exceed 180 degree F, it is
necessary to move the thrust bearing away from the
heat source in the sump. This is accomplished by
adding the upper stuffing box. Air is then allowed to
circulate around the bearing keeping it cool. The upper
stuffing box is also used to minimize vapor emissions
when handling controlled substances. Proper
installation and maintenance of a vapor proof pump
along with the correct sealing device can give you
vapor free installations. Refer to Figure 48 for stuffing
box layout.

Packed Stuffing Box

Packed stuffing boxes are not allowed in
an ATEX classified environment

The stuffing box is packed at the factory. A grease cup
supplied with the pump lubricates the packing.

Fill the grease cup with any Lithium based #2 grease.

Packing Replacement

1. Should it become necessary to replace the
packing, the sequence is three rings of
packing, lantern ring and then two rings of
packing followed by the gland.

2. Install the grease cup on the tapped opening
on the stuffing box.

3. Turn the cap on the grease cup several turns
to inject grease into the packing.

4. Make sure gland nuts are finger tight. Final
adjustment is made.

Operation and Maintenance

1. Keep the grease cup full of grease at all times.

2. Periodically make several turns on cap on the
grease cup injecting fresh grease into the stuffing
box. Lubrication interval will vary depending upon
the temperature and gland tightness. Experience
will dictate the best interval for your service. Start
by checking the pump daily, and extend the interval
as required until you are comfortable that the
proper maintenance interval has been achieved.

CAUTION

Do not over tighten the gland as this will lead to shaft
damage. The pump is sealing only vapors so finger

tight is adequate.

50 CV#3171#IOM#05/11#

Mechanical Seals

When mechanical seals are furnished, a
manufacturer’s reference drawing is supplied with the
pump data package. This drawing must be kept for
future use when performing maintenance and
adjusting the seal.

If oil lubed seals are supplied, the seal faces must be
lubricated by oil at all times.
