These numbers are stamped on the pump nameplate (Fig. 1)
affixed to each pump volute casing, and should be referred to in
all correspondence with the Company.
Fig. 1 Nameplate
4.2 Receiving
• Check pumping unit for shortage and damage immediately
upon arrival. Pump accessories when required are packaged
in a separate container and shipped with the unit.
• If equipment is damaged in transit, promptly report this to the
carrier's agent. Make complete notations on the freight bill to
speed satisfactory adjustment by the carrier.
• Unload and handle the unit with a sling. Do not lift unit by eye
bolts on the motor!
4.3 Temporary storage
• If pump is not to be installed and operated soon after arrival,
store it in a clean, dry area of moderate ambient temperature.
• Rotate the shaft by hand periodically to coat bearing with
lubricant to retard oxidation and corrosion.
• Follow motor manufacturer's storage recommendations where
applicable.
4.4 Location
• Locate the pump as close to the suction supply as possible.
TM 05 8912 3712
Use the shortest and most direct suction piping practical.
Refer to 3.9 Suction (inlet) piping.
• Locate the pump below system level wherever possible. This
will facilitate priming, assure a steady liquid flow, and provide
a positive suction head.
• Make sure sufficient NPSH (Net Positive Suction Head) is
provided at the suction end by considering the pump's location
in relation to the entire system. Available NPSH must always
equal or exceed required NPSH specified on the pump
performance curve.
• Always allow sufficient accessibility for maintenance and
inspection. Provide a clear space with ample head room for
use of a hoist strong enough to lift the unit.
• Make sure a suitable power source is available for the pump
motor. Electrical characteristics should match those specified
on the motor data plate, within the limits covered in
4. Installation-electrical and 5. Operation.
• Avoid pump exposure to sub-zero temperatures to prevent
pump liquid from freezing. If freezing conditions exist during
shutdown periods, see Sections 5.6 Pump shutdownand
5.7 Short duration shutdown for specific recommendations.

4.5 Horizontal pump foundation
Horizontal pumps should be permanently installed on a firm,
concrete foundation mounting pad of sufficient size to dampen
any vibration and prevent any deflection or misalignment. The
pad may float on springs or be a raised part of the equipment
room floor. The foundation should be poured without interruption
to 3/4 to 1 - 1/2 inches below the final pump elevation. The top
surface should be well scored or grooved before the concrete
sets to provide a suitable bonding surface for the grout. Anchor
bolts should be set in pipe sleeves for positioning allowance, as
shown in Fig. 2. Allow enough bolt length for grout, lower base
plate flange, nuts and washers. Allow the foundation to cure
several days before proceeding with pump installation.

4.9 Suction (inlet) piping
The sizing and installation of suction piping is particularly
important. It must be selected and installed in a manner that
minimizes pressure loss and permits sufficient liquid flow into the
pump during starting and operation. Many NPSH problems can
be traced directly to improper design of suction piping systems.
Observe the following precautions when installing suction piping:

• After the concrete pad has been poured and set, lower the
pump base plate over the anchor bolts and rest it on loose
adjustment wedges or shims placed near each anchor bolt and
at intervals not to exceed 24" along each side. Shims or
wedges must be placed to raise the bottom of the base 3/4" to
1 - 1/4" above the pad, allowing clearance for grout. Level the
pump shaft, flanges, and base plate using a spirit level,
adjusting the wedges or shims, as required.
• Check to make sure that the piping can be aligned to the pump
flanges without placing any strain on either flange.
• After pump alignment has been established (LF), put nuts on
foundation bolts and tighten them just enough to keep the unit
base plate from moving. Construct a form or dam around the
concrete pad and pour grout in and around the pump base, as
shown in Fig. 2. Grout compensates for uneven foundation,
distributes the weight of the unit, and prevents shifting. Use an
approved, non shrinking grout (such as Embeco 636 by
Master Builders, Cleveland, Ohio or equivalent). Allow at least
24 hours for this grout to set before proceeding with piping
connections.
• After the grout has thoroughly hardened, check the foundation
bolts and tighten if necessary. Recheck the pump alignment
after the foundation bolts are secured.
• No alignment or grouting required for LCS pump.
4.7 Vertical mount
The PACO LCV Vertical Close Coupled pump need not be
grouted to its foundation, but should be anchored with 4 anchor
bolts set in concrete similar to the horizontal anchoring
arrangement Fig. 2.
4.8 P
iping-general
• Do not use pump as a support for piping! Use pipe hangers or
other supports at proper intervals to provide complete piping
support near the pump.
• Both suction and discharge piping should be independently
supported and properly aligned so that no strain is transmitted
to the pump when flange bolts are tightened.
• Make sure piping is as straight as possible, avoiding
unnecessary bends and fittings. Where necessary, use 45 ° or
long-sweep 90 ° pipe fittings to decrease friction loss.
• Where flanged joints are used, make sure that inside
diameters properly match and mounting holes are aligned.
• Do not spring or force piping when making any connections!

Fig. 3 Inlet piping
• Suction piping should be as direct as possible, and ideally the
length should be at least ten times the pipe diameter. Short
suction piping can be the same diameter as the suction
opening. Longer piping should be one or two sizes larger
(depending on length), reducing to the diameter of the pump
suction opening.
• Use an eccentric reducer, with the eccentric side down Fig. 3
when reducing the pipe diameter to the diameter of suction
opening.
• At no point should suction piping be smaller in diameter than
the pump suction opening.
• Horizontal suction lines should follow an even gradient, if
possible. A gradual upward slope to the pump is
recommended for suction lift conditions, and a gradual
downward slope for positive suction head.
• Avoid any high points, such as pipe loops Fig. 4, that may
create air pockets and throttle the system or produce erratic
pumping.
• Install a valve in the suction line to isolate the pump during
shutdown and maintenance, and facilitate pump removal.
Where two or more pumps are connected to the same suction
line, install duplicate gate valves to isolate each pump from
the line.
• Gate valves should always be installed in positions that avoid
air pockets. Globe valves should not be used, particularly
when NPSH is critical.
• During pumping operation, valves on suction line must always
be at FULL OPEN.
• Properly sized pressure gauges can be installed in gauge taps
on pump suction and discharge nozzles. Gauges enable the
operator to monitor pump performance and determine that the
pump conforms to the parameters of the performance curve. If
cavitation, vapor binding, or other unstable operation occurs,
pressure gauges will indicate wide fluctuation in suction and
discharge pressures.

PACO Pumps
Fig. 4 Air pocket prevention
4.10 Discharge (outlet) piping
• Short discharge piping can be the same diameter as the pump
discharge opening. Longer piping should be one or two sizes
larger depending on length.
• An even gradient is best for long horizontal runs of discharge
piping.
• Install a valve near the discharge opening to prime and start
the pump. The discharge gate valve is also used to isolate the
pump during shutdown, maintenance, and facilitate pump
removal.
• Any high points in discharge piping may entrap air or gas and
thus retard pump operation.
• If the possibility of liquid hammer exists, (i.e. check valves are
used) close the discharge gate valve before pump shutdown.
4.11 Shaft sealing-general comments
• PACO offers both mechanical seals and packed stuffing boxes
as a means to seal the shaft. Pumps with stuffing boxes are
normally packed before shipment. If the pump is installed
within 60 days after shipment, the packing material will be in
good condition for operation with a sufficient supply of
lubrication. If the pump is stored for a longer period, it may be
necessary to repack the stuffing boxes.
• The stuffing box must be supplied at all times with a source of
clean, clear liquid to flush and lubricate the packing. When
pumps are equipped with mechanical seals, no maintenance
or adjustment is required. Mechanical seals are preferred to
packing on most applications because they require less
maintenance.
4.13 Mechanical seals
All PACO Type L pumps that are equipped with mechanical seals
are matched to conditions for which the pump was sold. Observe
the following precautions to avoid seal damage and obtain
maximum seal life:
• Do not exceed temperature or pressure limitations for the
mechanical seal used.
• DO NOT RUN THE PUMP DRY OR AGAINST A CLOSED
VALVE! Dry operation will cause seal failure within minutes.
• Clean and purge suction piping in new installations before
installing and operating pump. Pipe scale, welding slag and
TM05 4792 2613
other abrasives can cause rapid seal failure.
Fig. 5 Checking parallel alignment
TM05 4795 2613TM05 4794 2613
4.12 Packing gland adjustment
With the pump running, the packing gland should be adjusted to
permit 40 to 60 drops per minute leakage. This is required for
shaft lubrication. After initial start up, additional packing and
adjustment may be required. Pumps with mechanical seals
require no adjustment.
10
Fig. 6 Checking alignment
4.14 Coupling alignment (LF)
• The following anchoring and alignment procedure is typical
and, if performed with care, should result in a smooth running,
trouble-free installation.
• If the pump and motor were shipped mounted on the pump
base as an assembly, remove the coupling guard.
• The pump and motor were accurately aligned at the factory,
but handling during shipment usually alters this pre-alignment.
Using a small straight edge and feeler gauges or a dial
indicator, check for horizontal, vertical, and angular
misalignment of the coupling hubs Fig. 5 and Fig. 6.
• Coupling alignment is correct when the dial indicator reads no
more than .005" run out in any direction (or when the straight
edge contacts both hubs evenly in both horizontal and vertical
positions). If misalignment is detected, loosen the motor and
shift or shim as necessary to re-align, then re-tighten bolts.
Always align the motor to the pump as piping strain will occur
if the pump is shifted. Never reposition pump on base!
• After final piping connections to the pump have been made,
motor wiring compared, correct rotation has been established,
and piping filled with liquid, check shaft alignment once again.
• Leave the coupling guards off until the pump priming
procedure is completed for a final shaft alignment check.
• To protect personnel from rotating machinery, Always install
coupling guards after installation is complete; before starting
pump!
4.15 Coupling alignment (LCS)
• No alignment of the pump and motor is required.

explosive surroundings, the rules and
regulations generally or specifically imposed by
the relevant responsible authorities or trade
organizations must be observed.
5.2 Installation wiring
• Mount the control panel or motor starter(s) in close proximity
to the pump to provide convenient control and ease of
installation.
• Wire panel or starter(s) to motor(s) and pilot device(s): Wires
to each motor must be sized for at least 125 % of the motor
nameplate full load amps. AWG #16 Type THW stranded wire
is recommended for wiring of pilot devices (float switches).
• Check incoming power source to ensure that it is the same as
the voltage and phase of the motors.
• Verify that the starters are suitable to operate the pump motors
on voltage and phase that is available.

Operation
6.
5.1 Priming
• The PACO Type L pump is not self-priming, and must be
completely primed (filled with liquid) before starting.
• If the pump will operate with a positive suction head, prime by
opening the suction valve and allowing liquid to enter pump
casing. Open air vents at this time, and make sure all air is
forced from pump by liquid before closing.
• Rotate the shaft by hand to free entrapped air from impeller
passageways.
• If pump has a suction lift, priming must be accomplished by
other methods. The use of foot valves or ejectors, or manual
filling of the pump casing and suction line with liquid are
possible methods suggested for this purpose.
• CAUTION: Never run the pump dry in the hope that it will
prime itself! Serious damage to the mechanical seal will result.
Never run the pump dry in the hope that it will
prime itself! Serious damage to the shaft seals,
pump wear rings and shaft sleeves will result.
6.2 Pre-start checklist
Warning
In the interest of operator safety, the unit must
not be operated above the nameplate conditions.
Such operation could result in unit failure
causing injury to operating personnel. Consult
instruction book for proper operation and
maintenance of the pump and its supporting
components.
Make the following inspections before starting your PACO Type L
pump:
1. Make sure the suction and discharge piping has been cleaned
and flushed to remove dirt and debris before operating pump.
2. Double check rotation must be clockwise operating in reverse
will destroy the impeller and shaft.
3. Make sure all wiring connections to the motor (and starting
device) match the wiring diagram and produce clockwise
rotation as viewed from the back of the motor.
4. If the motor has been in storage for an extended length of
time, either before or after installation, refer to motor
instructions before starting.
5. Check the voltage, phase, and line circuit frequency with the
motor nameplate. Turn rotating element by hand to make sure
it rotates freely.
6. Tighten plugs in gauge and drain taps. If the pump is fitted
with pressure gauges, keep gauge clocks closed when not in
use.
7. Check suction and discharge piping for leaks, and make sure
all flange bolts are securely tightened.
6.3 Motor rotation
Never check driver rotation unless pump and
driver couplings are disconnected and physically
separated. Failure to follow this instruction can
result in serious damage to pump and driver if
rotation is wrong.
After the unit has been wired and checked to insure that all
components in the system (disconnect device, magnetic starters,
pilot devices and motors) are properly connected, check motor
rotation as follows:
• For 3 phase units only—momentarily energize the motors to
ensure that the rotation is correct as indicated by the arrow
cast into the pump volute. If rotation is incorrect, interchange
two wires at the motor starter terminals T1 and T2.
• IMPORTANT: The pumps must not be operated while dry. Use
extreme caution that motors are energized only momentarily to
determine proper rotation.
6.4 Starting the pump
Warning
The pump must not be operated without an
approved coupling guard in place. Failure to
observe this warning could result in injury to
operating personnel.
1. Install coupling guard on coupled units.
2. Fully open gate valve (if any) in suction line, and close gate
valve in discharge line.
3. Fill suction line with liquid and completely prime pump.
4. Start the motor (pump).
5. Immediately make a visual check of pump and suction piping
for pressure leaks.
6. Immediately after pump reaches full operating speed, slowly
open the discharge gate valve until complete system flow is
achieved.
7. Check discharge piping for pressure leaks.
8. If pump is fitted with pressure gauges, open gauge cocks and
record pressure reading for future reference. Verify that the
pump is performing in accordance with parameters specified
on performance curve.
9. Check and record voltage, amperage per phase, and
kilowatts, if a wattmeter is available.
12
6.5 Voltage regulation
The motor will operate satisfactorily under the following
conditions for voltage and frequency variation, but not necessarily
in accordance with the standards established for operation under
rated conditions:
• The voltage variation may not exceed 10 % above or below
rating specified on the motor data plate.
• The frequency variation may not exceed 5 % above or below
motor rating.
• The sum of the voltage and frequency variations may not
exceed 10 % above or below motor rating, provided the
frequency variation does not exceed 5 %.
6.6 Pump shutdown
The following shutdown procedures will apply in most normal
shutdowns for the PACO Type L pumps. If the pump will be
inoperative for an extended length of time, follow storage
procedures in Extended Period Shutdown.
• Always close the discharge valve before stopping the pump.
Close the valve slowly to prevent hydraulic shock.
• Cut and lock off power to the motor.
6.7 Short duration shutdown
• For overnight or temporary shutdown periods under nonfreezing conditions, the pump may remain filled with liquid.
Make sure the pump is fully primed before restarting.
• For short or frequent shutdown periods under freezing
conditions, keep fluid moving within the pump casing and
insulate or heat the pump exterior to pre vent freezing.
6.8 Extended period shutdown
• For long shutdown periods, or to isolate the pump for
maintenance, close suction gate valve. If no suction valve is
used and the pump has positive suction head, drain all liquid
from suction line to terminate liquid flow into pump suction
nozzle. Remove plugs in pump drain and vent taps, as
required, and drain all liquid from the pump volute casing.
• If freezing conditions will exist during long shutdown periods,
completely drain the pump and blow out all liquid passages
and pockets with compressed air. Freezing of pump liquid can
also be prevented by filling the pump with antifreeze solution.
7. Maintenance
Warning
Do not attempt any maintenance, inspection,
repair or cleaning in the vicinity of rotating
equipment. Such action could result in personal
injury to operating personnel.
Before attempting any inspection or repair on the pump, the driver
controls must be in the "OFF" position, locked and tagged to
prevent injury to personnel performing service on the pump.
7.1 Motor lubrication
Always follow motor manufacturer's lubrication instructions if
available, and periodically check grease fittings and drain plugs
for leaks. If lubricating instructions do not accompany motor, refer
to for recommended lubrication periods.
• To lubricate the motor while running or at rest, remove grease
drain plug (if any) and filler plug on grease fitting. Grease with
clean lubricant until grease appears at drain hole or along
motor shaft.

• To lubricate regreasable bearings, remove grease drain plug
(if any) and filler plug. Add clean ball bearing lubricant until
grease appears at drain hole or along shaft. On units with
drain hole, all old grease can be purged out ahead of new. In
such cases, the drain should be left unplugged for several
minutes during pump operation to allow excess grease to be
forced out.
• Lubricate bearing frame bearings at intervals of one to three
months, depending on severity of environment. Pumps in a
clean, dry, moderate temperature (100 °F maximum)
environment should be regreased at three month intervals.
Too much grease can cause premature bearing failure-do not
overgrease.
On those PACO Type LF Centrifugal End Suction pumps
•
ordered with oil lubricated bearings, Fig. 7. A regular oil
maintenance program must be enforced.
After the first 200 hours of operation the oil should be
•
changed. To change the oil, remove the drain plug at the
bottom of the bearing cover and the filler plug (that also acts
as a vent plug) at the top of the housing. After draining oil,
replace the fittings and refill with an acceptable oil selected
from Table , “List of acceptable Lube oils,” on page 11. After
the first oil change, the oil should be changed again at 2000
hours and then at intervals of 8000 hours or once yearly,
thereafter.

7. Remove and discard seal spring and retainer.
8. remove and discard seal seat from seal cap (2N) and
thoroughly clean the inside cavity of seal cap.
9. Interior surface of bellows on new seal head is coated with
bonding agent that adheres to motor shaft. When old seal
head is removed, bonding agent no longer exists and bellows
may crack or split during removal. Installation of new
mechanical seal is always recommended if it becomes
necessary to remove existing seal from shaft.
10. Clean and lubricate shaft (6A) with water-soluble lubricant
and make sure no sharp edges exist to cut or scratch bellows
of new seal.
11. Press new seal seat firmly into seal cap. Avoid direct contact
of seal face with metallic or abrasive objects and wipe clean
after installation to ensure abrasive free sealing surface.
12. Slide new seal head assembly onto shaft by applying even
pressure to base of assembly.
13. Install seal cap (2N) down shaft.
14. See reassembly instructions.
7.5 Wear ring replacement
1. Complete preparations.
2. Back-pull rotating assembly.
3. It may be necessary to remove volute (1A) from piping, to
facilitate easy access to interior of volute. If necessary,
remove flange bolts at piping.
4. To remove worn Case Wear Ring (4A), drill two holes slightly
smaller than width of ring into exposed edge of ring. Once
holes are drilled, a chisel may be used to completely sever
ring at holes and break ring into two halves for easy removal.
5. Clean the ring cavity in the volute prior to installing wear ring
to ensure a properly aligned fit.
6. To reassemble, press fit new wear ring squarely into volute
casing cavity. Ring may be tapped into place to make sure it
is completely impressed into cavity.
Do not use metal tooling against wear ring
surfaces. Use only rubber, rawhide, wood or
other soft material to prevent damage to ring.

7.6 Reassembly of pumps
1. All parts should be cleaned before reassembly.
2. Refer to parts list to identify required replacement items
Specify pump serial or catalog number when ordering parts.
3. Reassembly is the reverse of disassembly.
4. Observe the following when reassembling the liquid end:
• All mechanical seal components must be in good condition or
leakage may result. Replacement of complete seal assembly
is recommended.
• New shaft sleeves are installed by bonding to shaft with
hydraulic setting locktite.
5. Re-install coupling guards on coupled pumps.
7.7 Ordering parts
Grundfos Pumps has over 90 years of experience in the design,
manufacture, and application of centrifugal pumps and pumping
systems. Grundfos's commitment to state-of-the-art pump design
and quality manufacturing assures maximum user benefits with
optimum equipment life at lower cost.
Grundfos's commitment to their customers continues through an
extensive service organization. Highly trained technicians can
assist customers with initial startup, troubleshooting, repair, and
system analysis.
PACO maintains an extensive stock of replacement parts and
parts kits for our most popular model pumps. Shipment of these
parts is normally made within three days after receipt of an order.
On larger pumps, where it is impractical for our factory to
inventory low usage parts, replacement parts are normally
manufactured and shipped within 15 working days of receipt of an
order. In order to reduce pump repair time and shorten
inconvenient pump service interruptions, it is suggested that the
pump user stock spare parts. For suggested spare parts see
Replacement Parts Guide A1b.2, attached, and contact your local
PACO Sales Representative (see back cover for the number of
your nearest PACO Sales office). Since spare parts requirements
and quantities vary for specific pump constructions, allow your
PACO Representative to help in defining your spare part
requirements. To ensure that the proper replacement parts are
ordered for your particular pump model, when you call:
• Identify all pertinent data from the pump name plate (see
Pump Identification ). This should always include the pump
Catalog or Model Number, and the pump Serial Number.
• For replacement impellers, also include from the nameplate
the operating conditions (GPM and TDH) and the impeller
diameter.
• Identify all parts by item number and description as indicated
by the appropriate assembly drawing in this manual, for your
particular pump model.
Warning
Coupling guard must be reinstalled and in place
prior to operation.
