These instructions are f or the m aintenance per sonnel f or m aintenance and/or r epair of the indic ated pum p s eries.
Disassembly and assembly procedures should be carried out by qualified personnel. Prior to working on the pumps the
maintenance person should be fully knowledgeable of the material outlined in this manual. Instructions relating to safety
of operation, installation and m aintenance will be f ound in the “ OPERATING MANUAL F OR CENT RIFUGAL PUMPS”
and in the “ DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY INST RUCTIONS F OR SELF -PRIMING MULT ISTAGE CENT RIFUGAL
PUMPS” which is usually supplied with the pump or it can be requested from your POMPETRAVAINI representative.
CAUTION!
Pumps series TBK and TBAK create a high magnetic field. Personnel should take proper precautions i
they are wearing pace-makers or if they are using instrumentation sensitive to magnetic fields.
The listed below minimum distances must be kept:
- When the magnetic rotor parts are disassembled:
users of pace-maker = 2 meters
floppy disk; magnetic cards, etc. = 1 meter
- When the magnetic rotor is mounted in the pump:
users of pace-maker = 1 meter
floppy disk; magnetic cards, etc. = 0,5 meter
Proper attire is necessary prior to beginning any work on the pum ps. Therefore, for your safety, always wear safety hat,
eyeglasses, gloves, shoes etc. and be sure to have proper tools necessary for the work to be done.
Do not f orce or s ubject pum p or any of its c omponents to s udden s hocks or violent im pact. Do not dam age w ith
markings or scratches the mechanical seal surface areas, the engagement surfaces and sealing areas. Do not damage
gaskets, and O-Rings. Do not leave in the pump foreign matter such as screws, nuts, bolts, washers, rags, etc.
When requesting spare parts or technical information for the pum p, always quote the pum p model number and s erial
number which is printed on the pump nameplate: therefore it is recommended not to remove the pump nameplate or, in
case this action will be necessary, write the serial number on the pump (for example on the flange).
Should additional inf ormation be r equired, pleas e do not hesitate to c ontact PO MPETRAVAINI or the closest
representative. Should there be any difficulties in repairing the pum p, it is recommended to send the pump for repair to
POMPETRAVAINI or the local authorised representative.
POMPETRAVAINI will not and c annot be r esponsible f or w ork done on the pum p by the c ustomer or non-authorised
personnel.
NOTE: Pump parts are identified by item numbers (VDMA). Item numbers can be found in the parts list under chapter
10 and cross-referenced with the sectional drawings under chapter 11.
All drawings given in these instructions are only schematics and not certified.

1 – ACTION TO BE TAKEN PRIOR PUM P DISASSEMBLY
Prior starting disassembly activities it is required:
- Shut down the pump following usual shut down procedures.
- Disconnect electric motor from electric supply in order to make sure that it may accidentally start up.
- Close valves installed on pump suction and discharge.
- Wait and make sure that temperature is equal to ambient temperature prior to start any activity.
- Unlock the drain plug in order to drain completely the spiral casing.
Follow extra carefully this procedure in case pumped liquid is dangerous by contact or by inhalation.
At this regard it is mandatory to be provided with proper safety wear.
- Disassembly pipes and auxiliary connections in case connected to pump.
Remove coupling guard and, if present, spacer coupling.
- Loose the s upport foot VDMA 183 and, depending on needs , it is possible take away pump casing from piping and
baseplate and/or remove the electric motor.
2 – “TBK” PUMP SERIES DISASSEMBLY TO REPLACE BUSHING

VDMA 310 or 310.3 ( in f unction if pum p
execution is /1 or /2) by means, if necessary,
of the s ame s crews as ex tractors in the
threaded holes available in the support self.
Later on, by m eans of a suitable extractor,
extract the bushing support (see fig. 1 or 2).

To dis assembly the ex ternal m agnetic r otor w ith s mall s ize dr agging ( sealing c ontainer Ø 75, see fig. 6 and 10) is
necessary to remove the adaptor ring VDMA 502 loosening the grub screw VDMA 904.
Loosen screw VDMA 900.1 and remove the junk ring VDMA 550.1.
Extract then the fly wheel VDMA 132 with the external magnetic rotor VDMA 818.2.

bearing cover VDMA 360.1, the elastic ring VDMA 935 and circlip VDMA 932.1.
Loosen screws VDMA 900 and extract the internal bearing cover VDMA 360.2.
Apply now a strong pressure on the primary shaft VDMA 210 drive end to extract the bearing VDMA 320 and remove the
same shaft with bearing VDMA 320.1 from the support VDMA 330.
Remove circlip VDMA 932 and if necessary remove from shaft also bearing VDMA 320.1.
Verify that all parts are undamaged and w ear or tear scratches are not pr esent: if necessary replace those parts with
original spare parts before starting assembly, executing each step reverse to disassembly steps.
5 - COMPLETE DISASSEM BLY FOR PUMPS SERI ES “TBK”
Complete pump disassembly becomes necessary if, f or example, the pum p does not per form as expected due to an
excessive wear of impellers VDMA 230 and/or suction and discharge elements VDMA 109 and 114.
Replacing or machining the worn-out parts will be a question of economics and /or time available to complete the rapair.
This c hapter w ill c onsider the dis assembly of a pump without non-drive end s leeve bear ing hous ing and dr ive end
bearing and mechanical s eal hous ing ( see f ig. 3) : dis assembly and as sembly of thes e c omponents have been
addressed in chapters 2 – 3 – 4.
NOTE: where the mechanic is not familiar with the pump, it is advisable to draw a reference line along the pum p. Mark
each part with its location, rotation and assembly sequence; however the main components are already marked at
the ex ternal upper par t w ith reference logs to pr ovide the pr oper pos ition (see the attached “Disassembly and

8 – ASSEMBLY OF “TBK” AND “TBAK” PUMPS SERIES
Check that all the pump components are in good condition, clean them with the proper clearing product.
If hydraulic components (VDMA 230 and 230.2 im pellers, VDMA 109 e 114, elem ents.) could be re-installed but require
machine tooling, please follow the included “Assembly and Disassembly of self-priming centrifugal pumps” instructions.
In case of assembly of old components with new original spare part sit is necessary to check full compatibility no matter
if old components have been machined or not.
For suggested spare parts please read chapter 9.
About bus h inner diam eter please r efer to tab 3 values considering pump type and bus h VDMA num ber. Pr oceed to
assembly the pum p following the “ Assembly and Dis assembly of self-priming centrifugal pumps” instructions reversing
the indic ated s teps of dis assembly. Be c areful about s equential s teps and components reference point for assembly
position.
Once pump assembly is completed, connect the pum p to s upporting assembly completed with external magnetic rotor,
being aware of the strong attraction between the two parts.
Finally make the pump r otating by ac ting by hand on VDMA 210 drive s haft. Pum p s hould r otate f reely w ithout
generating any noise and or crackling.

When ordering the pump it is good practice to also order the necessary spare parts, especially when there are no standby pum ps in the ins tallation. T his w ill m inimise unnec essary dow n tim es in the event of pum p f ailure or r outine
maintenance. Following spare parts are suggested for each pump size:
1 or more Impellers
1 or more Suction plates
1 or more Discharge plates
1 Shaft assembly
1 Bearing set
2 Sets gaskets
1 Set of bearing spacer rings
However for proper parts management, consult the VDMA 24296 standard that recommends the quantity of spare parts
to be stocked in relation to the number of pumps installed.
On the pum p nam eplate ar e pr inted the pum p m odel, the y ear of m anufacture and the pump serial number: always
provide this information when requesting spare parts.
Specify also the VDMA num ber of the required part, as seen on the pum p sectional drawing (chapter 11) and parts list
(chapter 10) for proper identification of spare parts.
We recommend the use of original spares: in case this is not respected, POMPETRAVAINI declines any responsability
for eventual damages caused by not original spare parts.
