Piping
Piping
• Pump MUST be installed horizontally on a solid flat
surface, with discharge on top.
• Allow adequate space for servicing and ventilation.
Protect the unit from weather and water damage due to
rain or flooding or freezing temperatures.
• Piping should be no smaller than the suction and dis-
charge connections and kept short as possible, avoiding
unnecessary fittings to minimize friction losses.
• All piping MUST be independently supported and
MUST NOT place any piping loads on the pump.
NOTICE: DO NOT FORCE PIPING INTO PLACE
AT PUMP SUCTION AND DISCHARGE
CONNECTIONS.
• All pipe joints MUST be airtight.
• The use of Teflon
for ALL pipe joints.

tape, or equivalent, is recommended
• Total suction lift, including elevation and pipe friction
loss, should not exceed 25 feet of head.
• Install an airtight union in the suction line close to the
pump. See Figure 1.
• Installation of a foot valve at liquid source is recom-
mended.
NOTICE: FOR INSTALLATIONS WITH LONG
SUCTION PIPING, BOTH A FOOT VALVE
AND A CHECK VALVE ARE
RECOMMENDED.
• To avoid air pockets, no part of the piping should be
above the pump suction connection and piping should
slope upward from liquid source.
• For installations with long suction piping, fill the suction
pipe with water before connecting to pump.
DISCHARGE
• Install a tee at the discharge connection of the pump.
The top opening of the tee is required for initial priming.
See Figure 1.

• Clean and inspect all parts before reassembly.
1. Inspect seal seat bore for wear and debris, clean and
replace as necessary.
NOTICE: MECHANICAL SEAL MUST BE REPLACED
WHENEVER SEAL HAS BEEN REMOVED.
FOLLOW SEAL MANUFACTURER’S
INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY.
2. If necessary, seat ring may be lubricated with water or
glycerin to aid in installation. DO NOT contaminate
the seal face. Fully and squarely install the stationary seat into the adapter. With a clean, lint free cloth,
CAREFULLY wipe the seat face clean of debris. DO
NOT damage the seal seat face.
3. Reinstall the motor adapter on the motor, making sure
that the motor shaft does not dislocate or damage the
stationary seal seat.
4. Fully and squarely install the seal rotary assembly
against the stationary seat. Be sure rotating seal face
does not drop out of holding collar and DO NOT
damage seal face.
5. On three phase units, impeller MUST be installed with
LOCTITE® “Purple”. Hold shaft from rotating, as
explained in the “DISASSEMBLY” section of the
manual, and install impeller by turning CLOCKWISE
until tight against motor shaft shoulder.
6. Replace guidevane. Align to prevent impeller rub.
7. Install new diaphragm and new guidevane seal ring.
8. Install motor and liquid end into casing.
9. Check impeller for binding by rotating the motor
shaft. If binding occurs, loosen casing bolts, readjust
guidevane until impeller hub turns freely. Retighten
casing bolts in a crossing pattern.
10. Replace all drain plugs and motor end components.
11. Reprime and operate according to instructions in the
“OPERATION” section of this manual.

3. Impeller binding.
4. Motor improperly wired.
5. Defective motor.
6. Pump is not primed, air or gases in pumpage.
7. Discharge, suction plugged or valve closed.
8. Incorrect rotation. (3 phase only)
9. Low voltage or phase loss.
10. Impeller worn or plugged.
11. System head too high.
12. NPSHA too low – excessive suction lift or loss.
2. For the electric motor, refer to instructions provided by
the motor manufacturer.
SEAL REMOVAL:
1. Disconnect electrical service to pump.
2. Relieve system pressure by opening a faucet or drain
valve until water stops flowing.
3. Disconnect pressure switch tubing at the barbed fitting
on the pump case. If tubing does not slide off barbed
fitting easily, cut it as close to the fitting as possible.
4. Remove four cap screws which hold down the pump
seal plate and motor to the pump case. Piping need not
be disturbed.
5. Remove the pumping assembly, as one piece, (motor,
seal plate, diffuser and impeller) by carefully prying
them apart from the pump case. Exercise care as not to
damage impeller.
6. Remove the diffuser from the seal plate, exposing
the impeller.
7. Insert regular slotted screwdriver into the slot in the
motor shaft.
8. While holding the motor shaft with the screwdriver,
unscrew the impeller by turning counterclockwise.
9. Slide rotating part of seal assembly from shaft (as
shown in Figure 3). Separate seal plate from motor.
10. Remove stationary part of seal assembly (including
rubber seal boot) from seal plate.
NEW SEAL INSTALLATION:
1. Clean polished surface of stationary seal with a clean
cloth.
2. Wet the outer edge of the rubber seal boot with a
soapy solution.
3. Insert rubber seal boot and ceramic seal (polished side
exposed) into seal plate. Make a cardboard washer to
cover the ceramic seal surface to be used while pressing
seal into position. Cardboard washer is used to avoid
scratching ceramic surface. Discard cardboard washer
after ceramic seal installation.
4. Reposition seal plate onto motor and slide rotating seal
assembly onto motor shaft with carbon sealing face first
until rubber end ring slides over shaft shoulder.
5. Screw impeller clockwise onto motor shaft using
screwdriver in shaft end slot to hold the shaft.
6. Reattach diffuser to seal plate and carefully reposition
the pumping assembly to the pump case. Attach with
the four cap screws through motor bracket to case.
7. Connect the pressure tubing by pressing on to barb
fitting on pump case until tubing shoulders against stop
edge of fitting. If tubing was cut off, carefully remove
excess tubing from barb fitting with a knife, taking care
not to scratch the fitting.
MOTOR REMOVAL:
1. Follow Steps 1 - 10 of “Seal Removal” in this section.
MOTOR REPLACEMENT:
1. Follow Steps 1 - 7 of “New Seal Installation” in
