Principles of the Coro-Flo®Pump
The Corken Coro-Flo®is a special type of pump known as
a regenerative turbine. The liquid flows through the inlet
nozzle and passageways on each side of the impeller (the
rotating element) and is recirculated constantly between
the teeth of the impeller and passageways as the
impeller rotates. The fluid makes a complete revolution
inside the pump case before it is diverted through the
outlet nozzle. As the differential pressure increases,
the horsepower required to drive the pump increases
but the capacity decreases. Differential pressure is the
difference between the pressure at the inlet and outlet
of the pump.
The impeller is the only moving part and does not contact
the pump casing. Consequently, there is very little
impeller wear when pumping volatile liquids with little to
no lubricating qualities such as LP-Gas and ammonia.
Exclusive Features of the
Coro-Flo®Pump
Pumping volatile liquids is one of the most difficult
applications. Unlike other pumping operations, more
attention must be given to the design, manufacture,
installation, and operation of the pump.
In addition to being well suited for handling volatile
liquids, the Coro-Flo®pump has several other features
that make it easier to operate and maintain.
• The pump models listed in this manual are mounted
directly to an electric motor (direct mount) or to a
separate frame (frame mount) that connects to the
motor using a flexible coupling.
• Underwriters’ Laboratories, Inc. has tested and
inspected all of the pumps listed in this manual and
approved them for use in LP-Gas and ammonia
applications. The nameplate on the pump shows the
UL label.
• Ductile iron, a metal with the strength of steel, is used
for all parts under pressure of the liquid.
• The impeller floats on a shaft and can be easily
replaced without disturbing the piping or driver by
simply removing the pump cover. No special tools
are needed.
• The mechanical seal assembly can be replaced
without disturbing the piping or driver and no special
tools are required.
• Pressure gauge connections with 1/4" pipe thread are
located on the inlet and outlet nozzles.

Chapter 1—Installation
1.1 Location
NOTE: Must be installed in a well ventilated area.
The installation of a Coro-Flo®pump is a simple matter.
However, in order for the pump to deliver the performance
expected, the principles discussed in this book must be
followed exactly. The piping instructions in Appendix H
illustrate methods proved by hundreds of installations.
Different installations may require slight variations but
should not compromise the method.
No pump can discharge more liquid than it receives, so
the location and the inlet piping must be given careful
attention. If the inlet piping does not meet the demand of
the pump, expect trouble!
The pump must be located as near the storage tank as
possible. The complete inlet line, including the vertical
line from the tank must not exceed 12 feet in length.
The bottom of the tank should not be less than two
feet above the pump inlet nozzle. Four feet above the
pump nozzle is standard.
For the transfer of flammable liquids like LPG, the pump
assembly must be installed according to the applicable
local safety and health regulations. The installer and/or
user must take into account the following:
• Potential risk due to local conditions regarding the
installation and operation (e.g. poor ventilation and
additional risks due to other elements in the vicinity etc.)
• Qualification of the personnel
• Type of liquid being transferred
• Specific safety measures to be applied (e.g. gas
detection, automatic shut-off valves, personal
protection equipment etc.)
The following table shows the weight of the bare pump
for each model. For handling a bare pump, lifting slings
should be placed around the inlet and outlet flange neck
of the pump. To minimize damage to the paint, web slings
are preferred over metal slings.
Pump Weights
Model Shipping Weight in lbs (kg)
Frame mount 63 (28.6)
Direct mount 75 (34.0)
1.2 The Inlet Should Include
the Following
1. The tank Excess Flow Valve (EFV) should have a flow
rate of 1-1/2 to 2 times the capacity of the pump. Do
not use an EFV without knowing its flow capacity.
2. Pressure gauge at pump suction nozzle.
3. The tank shutoff valve should be a full port ball or
internal valve.
4. A “Y” type strainer with a 20 mesh screen should be
placed on the inlet line of the pump.
5. To accommodate piping strains, a flexible connection
should be used on the pump inlet and outlet.
6. To change line size, an eccentric swage at the pump
inlet nozzle is recommended (flat side up, to avoid
vapor formation.)
7. The inlet line must be level or slope downward to
the pump.
1.3 The Outlet Piping Should
Include the Following
1. A pressure gauge should be installed in the opening
provided on the outlet nozzle or in the outlet piping
near the pump. This pressure gauge shows how the
pump is operating on the inside so be sure to have
one installed.
2. A hydrostatic relief valve is required to be installed in
the outlet piping.
3. If the outlet piping exceeds 50 feet in length, a check
valve should be installed near the pump outlet.
1.4 The Bypass System Must
Include the Following
1. A bypass system for the pump must be installed. Without
this system, the pump has little chance of performing.
2. A Corken B166 bypass valve allows the pump to vent
vapors from the pump and act as a differential relief
valve making it ideal for the bypass system.
3. The bypass line must rise uninterrupted to an
opening in the vapor section of the storage tank. The
tank fitting must be either an excess flow valve or a
vapor return valve. It should never be a filler or back
check valve.
4. To meet the specifications for Underwriters
5

Laboratories (UL), an external bypass valve must be
connected in the piping between the pump discharge
nozzle and the supply tank for pump recirculation. When
bypassing the full output of the pump, the external bypass
valve should be set according to the latest UL guidelines.
1.5 Pump Foundation for Frame
Mounted Models
The pump assembly must be secured to a concrete
foundation using all of the mounting holes in the baseplate.
The total weight of the concrete foundation should be
approximately twice the weight of the pump assembly.
The foundation must be level and deep enough to get
below the frost line in the region. There are many ways
to construct a foundation so the example in figure 1.5 is
only a suggestion.

1.6 Level Base
After the concrete has set, confirm the pump mounting is
level. If necessary place metal shims under the baseplate
near the anchor bolts as shown in figure 1.6. Tighten the
anchor bolts once again and confirm the base is level.
Repeat this process until the pump mounting is level side
to side and front to back.

1.7 Coupling Alignment—F-Models
For a long service life, the coupling alignment must be
near perfect. The shafts of the pump and driver are
carefully aligned at the factory but should always be
checked after the pump is installed and before the
initial operation.
Lay a straight edge across both coupling halves on the
top and side. For proper alignment, both coupling faces
must be parallel and concentric (figure 1.7).
If misalignment exists, adjust the shims between the pump
and baseplate until exact alignment is accomplished.

1.8 Driver Installation
Wiring the electric motor correctly is extremely
important. An improperly wired motor causes expensive
motor difficulties so a competent electrical contractor
is recommended. The wire sizing chart indicates the
minimum standards for wire sizes.
Wiring the motor for the proper voltage is critical as well.
If low voltage is suspected, call the local power company
and confirm the voltage provided and wire accordingly.
Connecting to improper voltage will completely destroy
the motor.
6

With explosion-proof motor applications in humid climates,
the normal breathing and alternating temperatures of the
motor (i.e. warm during operation and cold when stopped)
often cause moist air to be drawn into the motor housing.
The moist air condenses and may eventually add enough
free water to the inside of the motor causing it to fail. To
prevent this, make a practice of running the motor and pump
at least once a week on a bright, dry day for at least an
hour using the pump's bypass system. During this time, the
motor heats up and vaporizes the condensed moisture. No
motor manufacturer guarantees an explosion-proof or totally
enclosed motor against damage from moisture.
Engine drivers require special consideration so the
manufacturer's instructions must be followed. When the
Coro-Flo®Pump is equipped with an engine from the
factory, the engine speed should normally not exceed 3600
rpm. Excessive engine speed will overload the engine and
cause early failure. The engine loses 3% of its power for
every 1,000 feet above sea level, so if the installation is at a
higher altitude than normal, consult the factory.

1 Each country may use a different form of wire size measurement (AWG, SWG,

Electrical Code (NEC) guidelines for America Wire Gauge (AWG) sizes. These
wire sizes and distances are based on nominal supplied voltages. Additional
derating is necessary when the voltage is less than that shown. Consult local
standards and regulation for specific wiring requirements.
Chapter 2—Operation
The pump operator should be fully informed of the
recommended operation procedures and safety
precautions. See Appendix B and Appendix C for
operating specifications and performance curves. The
operator must be made aware of the specific risks
generated by the product handled and familiar with
the purpose and function of all piping, valves, and
instrumentation of the installation.
The following steps should be performed before and
during the initial pumping operation:
1. Close shutoff valve on the end of the delivery hose.
2. Open the storage tank bottom shutoff valve.
3.
Open the storage tank shutoff valve of the bypass system.
4. Check the motor for the proper voltage. (See
instructions in section 1.8 Driver Installation.)
5. Record pressure gauge readings on suction of pump.
6. Start the pump and circulate liquid through the
bypass system.
7. Adjust the B166 bypass valve by turning the adjusting
screw out until the pump pressure gauge shows
nearly the same pressure it did prior to starting
the pump. Screw the adjusting screw in until the
pressure gauge indicates the pump is starting to
lose discharge pressure and the pointer is rapidly
fluctuating. Then back the adjusting screw out a turn
or two until the pressure gauge again indicates a
steady pressure. Tighten the lock nut and permit the
pump to circulate liquid for a half hour or more. If the
motor overload protection device stops the motor
during this period, this indicates the bypass system
valve is set too high and should be readjusted by
turning the adjusting screw out until the motor can
run constantly for this period of time.
When properly installed and operated, Coro-Flo®
pumps should not exceed a 80 dBA noise level at a
distance of one meter (3.281 ft.) from the surface of
the pump.
2.1 Filling New Cylinders and Tanks
All new containers are full of air and since air will not
liquefy under reasonable filling pressures, it must be
purged. To ensure containers are filled easily and
the proper amount of gas is supplied to burners and
carburetors, purging the air is essential.
Some cylinders are difficult to fill when equipped with a
fill tube that extends down into the liquid portion of the
7

container. If possible, these cylinders should be refitted
so the incoming liquid enters the vapor section of the
cylinder. If refitting is impossible or impractical, rock the
cylinder as it is being filled so that liquid will splash up into
the vapor section. This will help keep the cylinder filling
pressure down to a reasonable limit. A properly fitted
cylinder and filling manifold will permit filling a cylinder at
no more than 50 to 60 psi differential pressure. When the
pump is new, it is recommended to record the flow rate,
discharge pressure, and suction pressure.
2.2 Pumping From
Underground Tanks
Pumping boiling liquids, like LPG and other liquefied
gases, offers a unique set of challenges for underground
tank installations. When the piping system is designed
to function with a pump, Coro-Flo pumps offer superior
performance in these applications. Liquefied gases are
stored at exactly their boiling points. Any increase in
temperature, as well as any decrease in pressure, cause the
product to boil and form vapor. To minimize the amount of
vapor formation at the pump’s suction, properly designed
suction piping is critical. For boiling liquids, the net positive
suction head available (NPSHA) of an installation is reduced
to the height of the liquid level above the pump minus the
frictional losses. With an underground tank where the pump
is located above the liquid level, the net static suction head
becomes the net suction lift, which is negative not positive.
This means the installation NPSHA is always negative so
the pump will always have vapor in the liquid stream.
Coro-Flo regenerative turbine pumps are designed to
handle some vapor without the damaging effects of
cavitation. They are designed with a free floating impeller
that helps minimize wear and noise in this type of
application. When properly installed, Coro-Flo pumps
provide excellent service in underground tank applications.
Design Criteria for Underground Applications
• Minimize frictional losses:
— Pump should be as close as possible to the tank’s
liquid outlet connection.
— Use a minimal number of fittings and elbows.
— No strainer is necessary since the tank itself acts
as a gravity collector.
— Use full-port ball or low restriction valves.
— Use adequate piping sizes and do not go below
the inlet and outlet size of the pump.
• Limit the net static suction lift to approximately 14 feet
(4.3 meters) maximum.
• Use vapor eliminator valves and return to the vapor
space of the tank. A Corken B166 bypass valve has
this feature.
• An excess flow valve should be used in parallel for
additional vapor elimination.
• Always use back-pressure check valves downstream of
the pump.
• Limit the capacity of the pump to a maximum of 1.5%
of the tank’s capacity. For example, with a 1,000 Gal
(3,785 L) tank, limit the capacity of the pump to 15 gpm
(56.8 L/min).
For more details on underground piping systems, see
Appendix H.
Chapter 3—Preventative
Maintenance
Purpose
An effective preventive maintenance program minimizes
downtime and manpower requirements while maximizing
the performance of the equipment.
Scope
The preventive maintenance chart in figure 3.1 includes
items to be inspected with a recommended time schedule.
These are basic maintenance recommendations so
each company should develop a comprehensive
preventive maintenance schedule based on operational
requirements for the application.
Only a properly trained technician that follows all of the
applicable safety procedures should perform maintenance.
Procedures
Every procedure herein recommended must be performed
in a safe manner utilizing tools and/or equipment free of
hazards. Be certain to follow the safety codes of practice
set by the authorities having jurisdiction. These are
general guidelines and are not intended to cover all the
safety aspects that must be considered and followed
while performing these procedures.
1. Visual inspection:
This includes checking for leaks, corroded areas,
condition of hose, piping and fittings, and any
unsafe conditions which may hinder the safety of the
personnel and/or the facility.
2. Clean inlet strainer screen:
A clogged strainer screen restricts flow causing
vapor to form and leads to cavitation. The presence
of cavitation reduces the pump’s capacity and
accelerates wear on internal parts.
8

3. Inspect drive coupling and guard:
Check the coupling alignment and realign if necessary.
Inspect the rubber spider gear for cuts, broken
sections, excessive wear and replace if necessary.
4. Lubricate pump bearings:
Use only ball bearing grease, applied with a manual
lubrication pump or gun. Always clean the grease
openings thoroughly before inserting any grease.
NOTE: A low temperature ball bearing grease with
a minimum rating of at least -25°F to 250°F is
recommended. The lubricant used by the factory is
Mystik JT-6 Low Temperature Extreme Grease.
5. Lubricate motor bearing:
Follow the recommendations of the electric motor
manufacturer for the type of grease to use and the
lubrication frequency.
6. Performance test:
A. While transferring liquid with the pump, check the
pressure at the pump’s inlet port. The pressure drop
in the inlet piping should not be greater than 3 psi.
B. Again, while transferring liquid with the pump,
close the discharge valve(s) so the full flow will
be directed back to the storage tank through
the bypass valve. Then slowly close the valve
downstream of the bypass valves. The discharge
pressure of the pump should increase to the
maximum differential pressure of the pump at zero
flow conditions (see Appendix C).
C. If the maximum differential pressure is not obtained,
the pump should be serviced. Refer to the seal
replacement instructions in this manual and visually
inspect the pump’s impeller.
Replace the impeller if damaged, warped, or
shows signs of excessive wear.
Uniform wear of the impeller is not visually detected. If
the impeller has no visible damage, it can be re-used
as long as the pump's performance has not fallen off.

Chapter 4—Repair Service
CAUTION: Relieve system pressure before
performing any maintenance to the pump. All
maintenance must be performed in a safe manner by
qualified personnel. Maintenance personnel should
utilize tools and/or equipment free of hazards and
follow the applicable safety codes of practice set by
the local authorities having jurisdiction.
After a long service life, repairs are limited to replacing
the impeller or mechanical seal.
Since the only wear part influencing the pumping action
is the impeller, perform pumping efficiency test prior to
attempting any repairs. The trouble may lie in the piping
system rather than with the pump. If the pump produces
as much differential pressure when circulating through
the bypass system as it did when it was new, the problem
is elsewhere. Conversely, if the pump does not produce
as much pressure as it did new, remove the cover and
inspect the impeller.
Generally, uniform wear of the impeller is not visually
detected. If the impeller has no visible damage, it can be
re-used. Newer models starting with serial number prefix
YU no longer use a shim for clearance. The impeller
is locked in place with two retainer clips: one in front
and one behind the impeller. Generally, the only time
the impeller is replaced is when foreign material enters
the pump casing causing damage to the impeller or
performance is less than what it was new.
NOTE: On older models prior to serial number prefix YU,
undetected impeller wear is compensated by removing
the adjustment shim between the pump casing and
cover. This tightens the tolerance between the pump's
casing, impeller, and cover. If the pump is not performing
like it did when new, remove the adjustment shim and
re-tighten the pump cover. If the pump rotates freely, this
should improve performance. If the pump does not rotate
freely after removing the shim, install a new impeller for
better performance.
If visual inspection indicates the impeller is in good
condition, remove the shim and reinstall the cover
and make sure the pump spins freely. Many times this
procedure adjusts for slight impeller wear. If the pump
does not spin freely or the impeller is badly damaged or
scored, it must be replaced.
This is a matter of removing the cover and the old
impeller from the shaft. If the old impeller does not slide
off the shaft, the threaded bolt holes in the impeller can
be used for jacking/pulling. The new impeller should slide
freely over the shaft. If it does not “float” on the shaft,
sand the shaft lightly to achieve the proper fit.
Replacing the mechanical seal is simple procedure.
The pumps are configured with a variety of O-rings.
Selection of O-ring materials is based on the product
being transferred. The most compatible O-ring materials
must be selected. Consult the factory or distributor
for recommendations if the pump is not handling the
product for which it was initially purchased. The model
identification code on the nameplate indicates the
materials of construction. Refer to Appendix A and
Appendix B for details.

Chapter 5—Seal Replacement
Instructions (NOTE: Models
Beginning with Serial Number
Prefix YU)
Caution
Bleed all pressure from the pump and piping before
installing a new seal assembly.
Scan QR code to view list of
maintenance videos.
Cleanliness
The smallest amount of dirt on a new seal can cause
premature seal failure. Keep all parts, tools, and hands
clean while handling the seal. Avoid touching the smooth
lapped faces of the carbon rotor or seal seat. When
pumping LP-gas, anhydrous ammonia, and similar light
liquids, the fluid is five to ten times thinner than water so
the new seal needs to be as clean as possible.
Workmanship
This pump is a precision piece of equipment with very
close tolerances so treat it with care and never use
excessive force during disassembly and re-assembly.
DISASSEMBLY:
STEP 1
Remove the pump cover: Remove
the bolts and pull the pump cover
and O-ring from the pump case.
NOTE: On older models there is a
clearance shim as well. This is a
close tolerance fit so if the cover
does not slide out easily, use two
flathead screwdrivers to carefully pry
the cover from the pump casing.
STEP 2
Remove the retainer ring, impeller,
and impeller key: Using a pick or
small flathead screwdriver, carefully
remove the retainer ring from the pump
shaft. NOTE: A retainer ring is not
used on older models prior to serial
number 226858AG. If the impeller does
not slide off the shaft freely, insert
two cover bolts in the threaded holes
and gently pull outward as shown.
Forceful removal can warp the impeller
or damage the case O-ring groove
so use care during this step. Lastly,
remove the impeller key. If the impeller
key does not slide off the shaft freely,
use a pair of side cutters, pick, or small
screwdriver to pry the key out of the
key way at the end of the pump shaft.
STEP 3
Remove retainer ring: Using a
flathead screwdriver or pick, pry
up the rear retainer ring from the
groove and slide off the shaft. Do not
damage the shaft while removing the
retainer ring.

STEP 4
Remove seal sub assembly: Slide
the seal sub assembly (seal and seal
sleeve) off the shaft and remove the
seal sleeve O-ring from the shaft.
STEP 5
Remove seal housing: Using a 90°
pick or hook tool inserted behind
the face of the seal housing, slowly
pull out around the circumference
of the seal housing until it can
removed from the pump casing.
STEP 6
Remove seal housing O-ring and
inspect the bearings: Use a pick to
remove the old seal housing O-ring
inside the pump casing. Clean the
O-ring groove and shaft and remove
any burrs around the keyway. Inspect
the pump shaft bearings for wear by
applying up and down and in and out
movement. Since the seal assembly
resides on the pump shaft, excess
movement can cause a seal leak.
Lastly, turn the shaft and check
the bearings for any roughness.
Change the bearings if roughness or
movement is present.
STEP 7
Remove seal seat: The seal seat
is located inside of the seal housing
and is removed using a pick or
small screwdriver. Enter the inner
circumference on the back side
of the seal housing assembly and
gently pry out the seal seat evenly
as shown. NOTE: Clean the seal
housing assembly before inserting
the new seal seat.

ASSEMBLY
STEP 8
Verify the contents of the new
3189-1X_6 seal assembly and clean
pump shaft before installation.
NOTE: Install the two locator pins
before proceeding to STEP 9. One
goes into the seal sleeve and one
goes into the seal housing. Use the
old seal assembly for reference.
STEP 9
Assemble the seal housing and
seal seat: Make certain the locator
pin is installed inside the hole on the
seal housing. Clean the seal housing
inside and out before inserting the
new seal seat. Place a light coat of
oil on the seal seat O-ring. Insert
the seal seat with the notch pointing
down and in line with the locator pin
inside the seal housing as shown.
To protect the seal seat during
installation, cover the seal seat with
the small cardboard disk that came
with the new seal assembly. Make
sure the cardboard disk is clean.
Gently push on the cardboard disc
to install the seal seat. NOTE: Make
sure the locator pin is aligned with the
notch in the seal seat.
STEP 10
Install the seal housing O-ring
and seal housing: Apply a thin
coat of oil to the new seal housing
O-ring before installation. NOTE:
Insert the O-ring into the groove of
the pump casing and hold in place
with one finger. With a pick or small
screwdriver in one hand, use the
other hand to seat the O-ring using
a circular motion. Apply a thin coat
of oil to the seal housing and press
evenly into the pump casing until it
snaps into the groove.
Align notch and
locator pin

STEP 11
Install the seal sleeve O-ring: Clean
the pump shaft and install the new
seal sleeve O-ring. Make sure it is
seated on the shoulder of pump shaft.
STEP 12
Assemble the seal and seal sleeve:
Apply a thin coat of oil to the face of
the rotating carbon and the O-ring that
goes behind the rotating carbon. Insert
the seal sleeve into the seal by aligning
the locating pin on the seal sleeve with
the notch/hole on the seal. NOTE: The
current and previous seal assemblies
are shown to the right. Although the
installation photos show the new seal
design, the assembly instructions are
the same for the previous design.
STEP 13
Install the seal: Before installing the
new seal, make sure hands are clean.
Small debris or contamination can
cause the seal to leak. Align the seal
drive pin with the pump shaft keyway
and slide the seal assembly onto the
shaft until the seal assembly snaps
into place.
STEP 14
Install the first retainer ring: Install
the first retainer ring at the rear of the
shaft near the seal sleeve. NOTE: In
order to seat the retainer ring inside the
retainer ring groove, use the impeller
to compress the seal assembly. Place
the impeller on the shaft backwards
(hub side in) and push inward until the
retainer ring snaps into the groove on
the pump shaft. After the retainer ring
is seated into the groove, remove the
impeller. For quick removal, insert one
of the cover bolts into the impeller and
remove it from the shaft.

STEP 15
Install the rear impeller key: Install
a new impeller key into the keyway
slot located at the front end of the
pump shaft. Next, install the impeller
with the hub side out. The impeller
should slide freely on the shaft. If
it does not slide freely, carefully
remove any burrs from the impeller
key and/or keyway using a small file.
Remove all fillings from the pump
shaft and casing.
STEP 16
Secure the impeller and key with
the second retainer ring: Make
certain the impeller is pushed back
to the pump casing. To ensure the
impeller and key stay in place, install
the second retainer ring into the
groove located at the front of the
pump shaft.
STEP 17
Install the cover: Install the O-ring,
and pump cover. Torque each
cover bolt to 60 ft•lbs. Be certain
the Corken label on the cover is
horizontal and right side up. Rotate
the pump shaft and ensure the
impeller turns freely. NOTE: On older
models prior to serial number YU,
it may be necessary to install a
clearance shim if the pump does not
turn after installing the cover.
Before operating the pump,
pressurize the pump case with
vapor. After the pump has been
pressurized, slowly add liquid.
