Operators Handbook for
Diesel Driven Pump Sets
1. INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this handbook is to lay down
operating guidelines and simple routine
maintenance for the AUTOPRIME range of
diesel engine driven mobile pump sets fitted
with vacuum pumps.
Instructions and statements contained within
this handbook are given with our best
intentions and are correct at the time of
compilation. They are subject to alteration at
any time.
1.1 PUMP DESIGNATIONS
These are derived from the nominal size of the
pump discharge and suction pipes with prefix
and suffix letters to signify:
A = Air Cooled
C = Close Coupled
M = High Capacity Pump Design
e.g. An AC100 pump set has an air cooled
engine, is close coupled and has
100mm (4”) bore suction and delivery
connections, and -
1.2 PUMP TYPES
Pump Type Driver Starting Trailer
A 100M pump set is a 100m (4”) high
capacity pump. Note that these can be
supplied in open or canopied form with
either a four wheeled site trailer or two
wheeled road trailer chassis.
Vacuum pumps are supplied to suit pumping
requirements, there are four main sizes:-
10.2m3/hr (6ft3/min)
30.6m3/hr (18ft3/min)
42.6m3/hr (25ft3/min)
102m3/hr (60ft3/min).
This manual covers the range of units shown
below. Note that some units can be fitted with
either vacuum pressure seals or tandem
mechanical seals. Ensure that the correct
instructions and diagrams are being referred to
for the particular unit under consideration.
Other order specific components may also be
fitted. If in doubt over any item consult the unit
supplier.
