Noise Level
The noise generated by a pump depends on different factors. Most important are: power,
speed and brand name of the motor, whether there is cavitation or not, operating point of
the pump, and handling of small quantities of air. A guide value for the sound pressure level
measured in dB (A) at a distance of 3 feet from the pump with a 2 pole motor operating
at 60 Hz in ideal circumstances with cold water is 78 dB(A) for pumps up to 5 hp, 83 to
85 dB(A) for pumps with motors ranging from 7.5 to 50 hp. For pumps with 4 or 6 pole
motors, the value can be decreased with +/- 8 dB(A).

Installation
IV. Installation
Description
This section covers the general information and cautions about installing your pump as well
as specific steps to take during installation.
Location
Locate the pump as near to the liquid source as practical and below the level of the liquid
for automatic self priming. If the pump must be above the liquid source, a foot valve must
be provided on the suction pipe.
Allow adequate space around the pump for servicing and ventilation.
Protect the pump and piping from freezing temperatures.
Provide other weather protection consistent with the motor enclosure rating. The maximum
ambient temperature for the pump is 104°F (40°C).
For installation at altitudes greater than 3,000 feet (1,000 meters), the pump selection
should be de-rated due to the difference in barometric pressure. Contact your Goulds Water
Technology distributor for assistance in selection.
Foundation
The unit must be securely affixed to a leveled concrete or metal base foundation that is
adequate to absorb vibration and to provide permanent, rigid support for the pump and
motor assembly. If the unit is to be installed on a concrete foundation, hold down bolts
should be sunk in concrete and aligned with the holes in the feet. When the concrete has
dried, tighten nuts to keep the pump firmly in position.
Your SMVT pump has been supplied with a rigid base pump body with two feet. The
mounting dimensions are shown in Figure 2.
Figure 2: Base Mounting Dimensions
Installation of Mechanical Seal to Pump Assembly
Your SMVT pump has been shipped with the pump assembly and mechanical seal
disassembled.
1. Remove the (2) coupling guards.
2. Lubricate the inside of the mechanical seal assembly (supplied with pump) with grease
(such as Armored AutoGroup “STP” or Dow Corning “111 Grease”) or a mixture of
equal parts non-petroleum hand soap and water. Be sure that there is an o-ring at the
back of the gland ange.
SMVT Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual 11
Installation (continued)
3. Take care to make sure that the pump shaft is clean; it should be free of all burrs, oil, and
grease. The pump shaft should be completely dry before moving on to the next step.
4. To install the mechanical seal assembly, carefully slide it down the pump shaft until the
gland contacts the mounting surface on the top of the seal housing.
5. Install the (4) hex head bolts on the seal gland to the seal housing. See the “Engineering
Data” section on page 8 of this manual for the proper torque value.
6. Move on to the next section; “Installation of Motor to Pump Assembly”.
Installation of Motor to Pump Assembly
Your SMVT pump has been shipped with the pump assembly and motor disassembled.
1. With an adequately sized crane carefully lower the motor assembly onto the motor
adapter located on the top of the pump.
2. Secure the motor to the motor adapter with the (4) hex head bolts supplied with pump.
See the “Engineering Data” section on page 8 of this manual for the proper torque value.
3. Disassemble the coupling (supplied with pump) by removing the (6) socket head screws
and machine washers between the coupling halves (see Figure 3). Retain bolts and dowel
pin for reassembly.
Figure 3: Motor Coupling
Item Quantity Description
A 2 Coupling Half
B 6 Socket Head Cap Screw
C 6 Lock-washer
D 1 Dowel Pin
4. Take care to make sure that the pump and motor shafts are clean; they should be free
of all burrs, oil, and grease. Both the pump and motor shafts should be completely dry
before moving on to the next step.
5. Install the dowel pin on the pump shaft and loosely assemble the shaft coupling. Do not
tighten the coupling at this point; it should be left loose enough to receive the motor
shaft in the following section.
6. Insert the impeller shim (supplied with the pump) between the shaft coupling and seal
gland. This will lift the shaft/impellers to the running position.
7. Very lightly tighten the (2) socket head cap screws on the pump end of the coupling (refer
to Figure 4). Tighten the coupling evenly; ensure that the coupling is symmetrical on both
the pump and motor shafts. Do NOT torque the cap screws in this step.

Installation (continued)
Figure 4: Coupling Socket Head Screws
8. Very lightly tighten the remaining (4) socket head screws on the coupling. Tighten the
coupling evenly; ensure that the coupling is symmetrical on both the pump and motor
shafts. Do NOT torque the cap screws in this step.
9. Torque the socket head cap screws on the coupling. Refer to Figure 5 for the proper
torque pattern. See the “Engineering Data” section on page 8 of this manual for the
proper torque value.
Figure 5: Coupling Torque Pattern Figure 5a: Run Out Measurement Location
10. Remove the impeller shim and retain for future use.
11. Visually inspect the gaps between the coupling to ensure they are symmetrical on both
sides and consistent throughout the length of the coupling.
12. Inspect run out of the shaft between the bottom of the coupling and the mechanical seal
as shown in Figure 5a. If the run out exceeded 0.005”, the coupling must be adjusted. It
is usually most effective to adjust the four bolt section of the coupling.
13. Tighten the set screws on the seal gland. See the “Engineering Data” section on page 8 of
this manual for the proper torque value.
14. Install the (2) coupling guards.
Piping
General: Guidelines for piping are given in the “Hydraulic Institute Standards” and should
be reviewed prior to installation.
Warning: Never draw piping into place by using force on the suction and
discharge connections of the pump. This may impose dangerous strains on the
unit causing misalignment, poor operation and physical injury and damage to the
equipment.
1. All piping must be supported independently of and line up naturally with the pump suction
and discharge. It MUST NOT place piping loads on the pump.
2. Piping should be no smaller than the pump’s suction and discharge connections and kept as
short as possible, with minimal fittings to minimize friction losses.
SMVT Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual 13
Installation (continued)
3. DO NOT connect piping to pump until pump and/or driver are securely fastened to a
supporting structure.
4. When pumping liquids at elevated temperatures, it is recommended that expansion loops or
joints be used in the suction and discharge piping. Refer to Figure 6 for correct placement
to avoid pump strain or misalignment due to linear expansion of piping.
Figure 6: Correct Placement of Expansion Joint
5. The piping should be arranged to permit pump isolation on both the suction and discharge
sides so that the pump can be drained during maintenance and repair.
6. Carefully clean all pipe parts, valves and ttings and pump branches prior to assembly.
7. All pipe joints MUST be airtight.
8. Proper placement of any temperature probes should be at the top end of the pump
Suction Piping
unit casing in one of the provided ports. Ports will come from factory plugged. Proper
temperature probe location is shown in Figure 7.
Figure 7: Correct Placement of Temperature Probes
Warning: NPSH available must always exceed NPSH required by the pump. For
suction lifts over 10 feet (3 meters) and liquid temperatures over 120°F (49°C),
consult the performance curve for your pump to determine NPSH required.
Properly installed suction piping is a necessity for trouble-free pump operation. Suction
piping should be ushed BEFORE connection to the pump.
1. Use of elbows close to pump suction should be avoided. There should be a minimum of two
pipe diameters of straight pipe between elbow and suction inlet (Reference Figure 8). All
elbows should be long-radius.
14 SMVT Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual
Installation (continued)
Figure 8: Piping Elbows
2. Use suction pipe that is one or two sizes larger than the pump suction with a reducer at the
suction. Suction piping should never be smaller diameter than the pump suction.
3. Reducers should be eccentric at the pump suction with sloping side down and horizontal
side at the top (Reference Figure 9).
Figure 9: Eccentric Reducer
4. Suction strainers, when used, must have a net “free area” of at least three times the suction
pipe area.
5. Separate suction lines are recommended when more than one pump is operating from the
same source or supply.
Suction Lift Conditions
If pump is to be installed above the liquid source, the following MUST be provided:
1. No part of the suction piping can be above the pump suction (to avoid air pockets).
2. Suction piping must slope upwards to the pump on any horizontal pipe sections.
3. All joints MUST be airtight.
4. A means of maintaining prime during intermittent duty, such as a foot valve, must be
provided.
5. The suction strainer or suction bell MUST be at least three times the diameter of the
suction.
6. Ensure that the size and minimum submergence over the suction inlet is sufcient to prevent
air from entering the pump through a suction vortex. See typical intake piping arrangements
in Figures 10-13.

2. Keep suction pipe free from air pockets.
3. Piping should be level or slope gradually downward from the source of supply.
4. No portion of the piping should extend below pump suction.
5. The size of the entrance from the supply should be one or two sizes larger than the suction
pipe.
6. The suction pipe must be adequately submerged below the liquid surface to prevent vortices
and air entrainment at the supply. See above illustrations.
Discharge Piping
1. Isolation and check valves should be installed in the discharge line. Locate the check valve
between the isolation valve and the pump. This will permit inspection of the check valve.
The isolation valve is required for priming, regulation of ow and for inspection and
maintenance of the pump. The check valve prevents pump or seal damage due to reverse
ow through the pump when the driver is off.
2. Increasers, if used, should be placed between the pump and check valves.
3. Cushioning devices should be used to protect the pump from surges and water hammer if
quick closing valves are installed in the system.
WARNING: Do not use the isolation/gate valve to throttle the pump as this
may cause loss of prime, excessive temperatures and damage to pump, voiding
warranty.

Commissioning, Startup, Operation and Shutdown
V. Commissioning, Startup, Operation
and Shutdown
Overview
This section covers the basic procedures to use in preparing your pump for startup, starting,
operating and shutting it down. DO NOT CONTINUE UNTIL ALL PARTS OF THE
INSTALLATION PROCESS (SECTION IV) HAVE BEEN COMPLETED.
Priming
Never start the pump until it has been properly primed. Several different methods of
priming can be used, depending upon type of installation and service involved.

shock, burns or death. Make sure motor guards are in place.
1. Make sure suction valve and any recirculation or cooling lines are open.
2. Fully close or partially open discharge valve as dictated by system conditions.
3. Start driver.
WARNING
Hazardous machinery
can cause personal
injury or death.
Operation
Warning: DO NOT operate unit without safety guards in place. To do so could
result in severe personal injury or death.
Caution: Immediately observe pressure gauges. If discharge pressure is not
quickly attained, stop driver, re-prime and attempt to restart.
4. Slowly open discharge valve until the desired ow is obtained.
Caution: Observe pump for vibration levels, bearing temperature and excessive
noise. If normal levels are exceeded, shut down and resolve.
5. After stabilizing the system at normal operating conditions, check the piping and adjust
supports if needed.
General considerations:
Caution: Always vary capacity with regulating valve in the discharge line. Never
throttle ow from the suction side.
Caution: Driver may overload if the pumpage specic gravity (density) or
viscosity is greater than originally assumed or the rated ow rate is exceeded.
Caution: Always operate the pump at or near the rated conditions to prevent
damage resulting from cavitation or recirculation.
SMVT Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual 21
Commissioning, Startup, Operation and Shutdown (continued)
Operating at reduced capacity:
WARNING
Warning: DO NOT operate pump below minimum rated ows or with suction
and or discharge valve closed. These conditions may create an explosive hazard
due to vaporization of pumpage and can quickly lead to pump failure, physical
injury or property damage.
Extreme heat can
cause personal injury
or property damage.
Caution: Damage can occur from:
1. Increased vibration levels – affects bearings and mechanical seal.
2. Increased radial loads – Stresses on shaft and bearings.
3. Heat build-up – Vaporization causing rotating parts to score or seize.
4. Cavitation – Damage to internal surfaces of pump.
Operating under Freezing Conditions
Exposure to freezing conditions while pump is idle could cause liquid to freeze and damage
the pump. Liquid inside the pump should be drained.
Shutdown
1. Slowly close the discharge valve.
2. Shut down and lock the driver to prevent accidental rotation.
Warning: When handling hazardous and or toxic uids, proper personal
protective equipment should be worn. If pump is being drained, precautions
must be taken to prevent physical injury. Pumpage must be handled and disposed
of in conformance with applicable environmental regulations.
22 SMVT Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual
VI. Maintenance
Overview
This section covers the procedures, precautions and schedule for maintenance of your
Goulds Water Technology pump. A routine maintenance program can extend the life of
your pump. Well maintained equipment will last longer and require fewer repairs.
Warnings
Failure to disconnect and lockout electrical power before attempting any
maintenance can cause shock, burns or death.
Failure to relieve system pressure and drain system before attempting any
maintenance can cause property damage, personal injury or death.
If piping is hazardous or toxic fluids, system must be flushed prior to performing
service involving liquid end disassembly.
Maintenance Schedule
Inspection intervals should be shortened appropriately if the pumpage is abrasive or
corrosive, or if the environment is classified as potentially explosive.
Maintenance
Routine Maintenance
• Motor Maintenance
• Seal monitoring
• Vibration analysis
• Discharge pressure
• Temperature monitoring
Routine Inspections
• Check for unusual noise, vibration and bearing temperatures
• Inspect pump and piping for leaks
• Check static seal leakage
• Mechanical seal: should be no leakage
3 Month Inspections
• Check the foundation and hold-down bolts for tightness.
• If the pump has been left idle, check the seal and replace if needed.
Annual Inspections
• Check the pump capacity, pressure and power. If pump performance does not satisfy
your process requirements and the process requirements have not changed, the pump
should be disassembled; inspected and worn parts should be replaced. Otherwise, a
system inspection should be done.
Motor Maintenance
Consult the motor manufacturer’s Installation, Operation, and Maintenance manual
supplied with your motor for proper maintenance procedure and schedule.
