A - GENERAL INFORMATION
TO THE PURCHASER:
Congratulations! You are the owner of one of the ¿nest
pumps on the market today. These pumps are products
engineered and manufactured of high quality components.
With years of pump building experience along with a
continuing quality assurance program combine to produce
a pump which will stand up to the toughest applications.
Check local codes and requirements before installation.
Servicing should be performed by knowledgeable pump
service contractors or authorized service stations.
RECEIVING:
Upon receiving the pump, it should be inspected for
damage or shortages. If damage has occurred, ¿le a claim
immediately with the company that delivered the pump.
If the manual is removed from the crating, do not lose or
misplace.
STORAGE:
Short Term - Pumps are manufactured for ef¿cient
performance following long inoperative periods in storage.
For best results, pumps can be retained in storage, as
factory assembled, in a dry atmosphere with constant
temperatures for up to six (6) months.
Long Term - Any length of time exceeding six (6) months,
but not more than twenty four (24) months. The units
should be stored in a temperature controlled area, a roofed
over walled enclosure that provides protection from the
elements (rain, snow, wind blown dust, etc..), and whose
temperature can be maintained between +40 deg. F and
+120 deg. F. Pump should be stored in its original shipping
container and before initial start up, rotate impeller by hand
to assure seal and impeller rotate freely.
SERVICE CENTERS:
For the location of the nearest Deming Service Center,
check your Deming representative or Crane Pumps &
Systems Service Department in Piqua, Ohio, telephone
[phone] or Crane Pumps & Systems Canada, Inc.,
Bramton, Ontario, [phone].
B - INSTALLATION
1. LOCATION
The pump should be installed as near the source of liquid as
possible with a minimum of piping on the suction side of the
pump. The discharge piping should be as direct as possible
with a minimum of ¿ttings to lower friction loss.
The unit should be installed with adequate head room and
a maximum area for inspection and service. The installation
shouldbedry,wellventilated,andprotectedagainstmoisture
and Àooding.
2. FOUNDATION
The pump foundation should be suf¿ciently substantial
to form a level, rigid support for the combined weight
of the pump and driver and maintain alignment of the
installed unit. Foundation bolts, of the proper size, should
be imbedded in the concrete. A pipe sleeve, about 2½”
diameters larger than the bolt, should be used to allow for
¿nal positioning of the bolts. See Figure 1.
3. MOUNTING:
Pumps and drivers that are received from the factory
with both machines mounted on a common base plate,
were accurately aligned before shipment. All baseplates
are Àexible to some extent and, therefore, must not be
relied upon to maintain the factory alignment. Preliminary
alignment is necessary after the complete unit has been
leveled on the foundation, and again, after the unit is
piped, and rechecked periodically as outlined in the
following paragraphs.
Position unit on foundation and level the base plate,
using rectangular metal blocks and shims, or wedges
having a small taper. A gap of 3/4” to 1½” should be
allowed between the base plate and foundation for
grouting.
Adjust the metal supports or wedges until the shafts of
the pump and driver are level. Check the coupling faces,
as well as the suction and discharge Àanges of the pump
for horizontal or vertical position by means of a level.
Correct the positions, if necessary, by adjusting the
supports or wedges under the base plate, as required.
Figure 1. Foundation Bolt Location and Anchorage

4. FLEXIBLE COUPLING ALIGNMENT
AÀexible coupling should not be used to compensate for
misalignment of the pump and driver shafts. The purpose
of the Àexible coupling is to compensate for temperature
changes and to permit end movement of the shafts without
interference with each other, while transmitting power from
the driver to the pump.
CAUTION! - Remove and lock out power to
driver.
FACTORY ALIGNMENT
Pump and drivers that are received from the factory
with both machines mounted on a common baseplate,
were accurately aligned before shipment. All baseplates
are Àexible to some extent and, therefore, must not be
relied upon to maintain the factory alignment. Preliminary
alignment is necessary after the complete unit has been
leveled on the foundation and again, after the unit is piped,
and rechecked periodically as outlined in the following
paragraphs.
FIELD ALIGNMENT - Horizontal Units
The faces of the coupling halves should be spaced far
enough apart so that they cannot strike each other when
the driver rotor is moved toward the pump. The necessary
tools for checking the alignment of a Àexible coupling are a
straight edge and a taper gauge or a set of feeler gauges.
NOTE: In most cases where extreme accuracy is
necessary, a dial indicator may be used to align coupling.
Angular alignment check is made by inserting a taper
gauge or feelers between the coupling faces at 90-degree
intervals around the coupling. The unit will be in angular
alignment when the coupling faces are exactly the same
distance apart at all points. (See Figure 2).
Parallel alignment check is made by placing a straight
edge across both coupling rims at the top, bottom and
at both sides. The unit will be in parallel alignment when
the straight edge rests evenly on the coupling rim at all
positions. Allowance may be necessary for temperature
changes and for coupling halves that are not of the same
outside diameter. Care must be taken to have the straight
edge parallel to the axis of the shafts. Correction for
Angular and Parallel Misalignment is made by adjusting
the shims under the driver. After each change, it is
necessary to recheck the alignment of the coupling halves,
as adjustment in one direction may disturb adjustments
already made in another direction.
The permissible amount of coupling misalignment will vary
with the type of pump and driver, but should be limited to
approximately .002 inches per inch of shaft diameter when
¿nal adjustment is made. When the units are lined up cold,
it is necessary to make allowance for the vertical rise of
the driver caused by heating when in operation. When the
preliminary alignment has been completed the foundation,
bolts should be tightened evenly, but not too ¿rmly. Figure 2

WARNING - Coupling guards must be used to
avoid serious injury to operating personnel.
FIELD ALIGNMENT - Vertical Units
To protect the pump and motor during shipment, the motor
and Àexible shaft coupling may be shipped unmounted
and must be installed on the pump and properly aligned at
the pump site. Clamp an extender to the pump shaft and
by using a dial indicator, positioned against the ¿nished
bore of the top plate of the vertical frame, rotate the pump
shaft checking alignment of the pump shaft with the
vertical mounting frame. Use the jackscrews in the base
of the mounting frame or metal shims under the feet of
the pump casing and adjust the pump so that the T.I.R. is
within .004”. Lock jack screws with the jam nuts. The shaft
position in relation to the ¿nished surface at the top plate of
the mounting frame should be within T.I.R. of .005”.
Install coupling halves on motor shaft and pump shaft but
do not tighten coupling set screws. Position the motor over
the pump and complete the coupling assembly according
to manufacturer’s recommendation, as the motor comes to
rest on the top plate of the vertical mounting frame. Insert
and tighten the motor cap screws.
Using an indicator on both the motor shaft and the pump
shaft, make sure that the shafts are concentric within .004”
and are aligned axially. Tighten coupling set screws.
It is recommended that the motor and pump be dowelled
to the vertical mounting frame when the correct alignment
has been established. Use Loctite on all dowel pins.
5. GROUTING
Grouting compensates for unevenness in the foundation
and prevents vibration and shifting after mounting is
complete. Build a form around the base plate to contain
the grout, and sprinkle area with water to obtain a good
bond. The base should be completely ¿lled with a good
quality, non-shrinking grout. The usual mixture for grouting
is one part Portland cement and two parts sand with
suf¿cient water to Àow freely. It is also desirable to grout
the leveling pieces, shims or wedges in place. Foundation
bolts should be fully tightened when grout has hardened,
usually about 48 hours after pouring.
6. PIPING
The pump suction and discharge connections are not
intended to indicate the required suction and discharge
pipe sizes. The pipe diameter must be selected according
to the requirements of the pumping system and
recommended friction losses for the liquid being pumped.
Usually, it is advisable to increase the size of both the
suction and discharge pipes at the pump nozzles to have
minimum acceptable friction loss, suction pipe should
never be smaller in diameter than the pump suction
nozzle. When suction pipe is of larger diameter than the
pump suction nozzle, an eccentric reducer is required to
eliminate possible air or vapor pockets at the pump suction
inlet.
Figure 3

7
Figure 4

8
Both suction and discharge pipes must be supported
independently near the pump, so that when piping is
connected to the pump, no strain will be transmitted to the
pump. Piping should be arranged with as few bends as
possible, and, preferably, with long radius elbow whenever
possible.
Where vibration noises must be kept to a minimum a
Àexible connection is recommended on both the suction
and discharge lines. This will eliminate any sound being
telegraphed through the pipe system.
NOTE: Flexible connector should have limiting bolts to
contain hydraulic forces.
SUCTION PIPING
A horizontal suction line must have a gradual rise to the
pump. Any high point in the suction pipe can become ¿lled
with air and prevent proper operation of the pump and may
cause loss of prime. The pipe and ¿ttings must be free of
all air leaks.
Any valves or ¿ttings should located at a distance equal
to 5 to 10 times the diameter of the suction pipe from the
pump suction nozzle. If an elbow must be installed at the
pump suction, it should be installed in a vertical position
to reduce unequal Àow into the pump, which may cause
cavitation in the pump (See Figure 4).
There is always uneven Àow in an elbow when it is
installed in any position other than a vertical position. This
unequal Àow allows more water to enter one side of the
impeller than enters the other side causing a reduction
in capacity and ef¿ciency. This condition may also cause
cavitation which would be characterized by noisy operation
and shorter pump life.
An eccentric rather than straight reducer and gate vale with
stem horizontal rather than vertical should be installed in
suction piping. (See Figure 4).
NOTE: A gate valve in the suction piping should not be
used as a throttling device, as this may cause the liquid to
overheat during operation.
DISCHARGE PIPING
A silent type check valve and a gate valve should be
installed in the discharge line. The check valve, placed
between the pump and the gate valve, is to protect the
pump against pressure surges and to prevent water
running back through the pump in case of failure of the
driver. The gate valve is used in priming, starting and when
shutting down the pump. This is especially important when
the pump is operated against a high static head.
if increasers are used on the discharge side increase the
size of discharge piping, they should be placed between
the check valve and pump.
7. LUBRICATION
Grease Lubricated Bearings
Grease lubricated bearings are prelubricated at the
factory before shipment. See LUBRICATION Section C for
recommended lubricants.
Oil Lubricated Bearings
Pumps furnished with oil lubricated bearings are shipped
WITHOUT oil in the housings (31) & (33). To ¿ll the oil
reservoir in the housing:
1. Install the Trico Opto-Matic constant level oiler (125)
with piping as shown with the moveable oiler body at
its lowest position.
2. Unscrew the plastic bottle from the oiler.
Fill bottle of the oiler and screw ir onto the lower
reservoir. Several ¿llings of the bottle will be required
before the oil level in the bearing reservoir is equal
to the level for which the oiler is adjusted. NEVER
FILL FRAME RESERVOIR THRU LOWER
RESERVOIR OF THE OILER. See LUBRICATION,
Section C, for recommended lubricants. When
proper oil level is obtained, re¿ll and replace the
plastic bottle on the oiler. See LUBRICATION,
Section C, for proper oil level.
Packing Box
The pump may be furnished with packing or mechanical
shaft seal, as ordered.
Packing is continuously lubricated internally with pumped
Àuid. External lubrication may be provided through tapping
opening, provided by-pass is plugged with item (263).
Mechanical seals ca be lubricated by:
1. The internal by-pass which leads from the volute
to the packing box. When using the internal by-pass
it is recommended that the tap in the seal gland be
used for the vent.
2. Plugging the internal by-pass with a socket head
pipe plug (263) and using an outside source. When
using an outside source, it is recommended to use
the tap in the seal gland for the inlet and outside tap
of the internal by-pass for the vent.
Other Lubrication
For proper lubrication of driver bearings and shaft
couplings, see manufactures instructions.
8. WIRING
For electric motor drives, connect power supply to conform
with national and local codes. Line voltage and wire capacity
must match the ratings stamped on the motor nameplate.
9. ROTATION
Before starting the pump, check the required direction
of rotation of the pump. The proper direction is indicated
by a direction arrow on the pump casing. Separate the
coupling halves, then start motor to see that it rotates in
the direction required by the pump. If it does not, reverse
any two main leads of the 3-phase wiring to the motor.
The coupling halves can be reconnected and the pump
primed for starting.

C - OPERATION
1. PRIMING
Install pet cock (248) on top of casing as shown.
CAUTION: Before starting the pump, the casing and suction
line must be ¿lled with liquid. The pump must not be run until
it is completely ¿lled with liquid, because of danger of injuring
some of the parts of the pump which depend upon liquid for
lubrication. Wearing rings will not seize when the pump is
¿lled with liquid but are very liable to do so when the pump is
run dry.
Vertical units must be primed through the recirculation line at
the top inboard seal gland.
Priming By Suction Pressure
When operating with suction pressure (Àooded suction),
priming may be accomplished by bleeding all the air out of the
pump by opening the petcock located at the top of the upper
casing or at the top seal gland.
A pump operating under a suction lift may be primed by
any of the following methods, as may be best suited to the
conditions. The discharge valve should be closed during
priming operation.
Priming by Ejector or Exhauster
This method is used when steam, high pressure water, or
compressed air is available.
1. Attach an air ejector to the highest point in the pump
casing. This will remove the air from the pump and
suction line.
Vertical units must be primed through the recirculation
line at the top inboard seal gland.
2. As soon as the ejector waste pipe throws water
continuously, the pump may be started. After starting, a
steady stream of water from the waste pipe indicates
the pump is primed. If this stream of water is not
obtained, the pump must be stopped at once and the
process of priming repeated. A foot valve is unnecessary
when this kind of device is used.
3. Open the discharge valve slowly and close off the
ejector.
Priming With Foot Valve
When it is not practicable to prime by ejector or exhauster,
the pump may be primed by the use of a foot valve. The
foot valve will prevent liquid running out through the suction
inlet and the pump can be completely ¿lled with liquid from
some outside source. Pet cocks on the top of the pump
should be opened during ¿lling to allow the air to escape.
A tight foot valve will keep the pump constantly primed so
that the pump may be used for automatic operation. The
valve must be inspected frequently, however, to see that
it does not develop leaks and thus allow the pump to be
started dry.
Priming by Vacuum Pump
When neither of the above methods of priming are practical,
the pump may be primed by the use of a vacuum pump to
exhaust the air from the pump casing and suction line. A
wet vacuum pump is preferable, as it will not be injured
if water enters it. When a dry vacuum pump is used, the
installation must be such as to prevent liquid being taken
into the air pump. The vacuum pump manufacturer’s
instructions should be followed.
2.STARTING THE PUMP
Position of Discharge Valve on Starting
A high or medium head centrifugal pump, when primed
and operated at full speed with the discharge gate valve
closed, requires much less power than when operated at
its rated capacity and head with the discharge gate valve
open. For this reason it is usually advantageous to have
the discharge gate valve closed when the pump is being
started. The pump must not be throttled by the use of a
valve in the suction line.
WARNING! - Operating the pump with a closed
discharge valve can result in excessive heat
build-up and should be limited to the shortest
practical duration. Operating the pump at
close to shut-off head usually places greater bending
strains on the shaft than at operating points near the
best ef¿ciency.
The following important items should be checked as pump
is started and placed in operation.
a. Pump and driver securely bolted
b. Coupling properly aligned
c. Piping complete
d. Correct pump rotation
e. Pump shaft turns freely
f. Discharge valve closed
g. Suction valve open (if used)
h. Coupling Guard installed
i. Pump fully primed
j. Pump and driver properly lubricated
k. Seal water valve (if used) open
Only after these items have been checked should the
pump be started.
3. INITIAL ADJUSTMENTS
Open discharge valve as soon as operating speed has
been reached. After the pump has been started the
packing box glands should be tightened to eliminate
excessive liquid loss. (Applies only to pumps having
packed stuf¿ng boxes.) Packing should not be pressed too
tight, as this may result in burning the packing and scoring
the shaft or shaft sleeve. The best adjustment will allow
the liquid to drip slowly from the packing box gland. This
will permit proper lubrication of the shaft and dissipate
generated heat.

10
As soon as the pump and driver have reached the normal
operating temperature, the unit should be shut down for
¿nal coupling alignment. This should be done by following
the instructions found in Section B, Part 4.
After the unit has been running for about one week,
the coupling halves should be given a ¿nal check for
misalignment caused by pipe strains or temperature
strains. If the alignment is correct, both pump and driver
may be dowelled to the baseplate if desired.
D. MAINTENANCE
1. LUBRICATION
Grease Lubricated Pump
Pump bearings are properly lubricated with grease at the
factory before shipment. Periods of subsequent lubrication
depend on local conditions, loads, speeds, hours of
operation and temperature.
Periodic inspection of bearing lubrication should be made
and additional grease added as needed. At this time the
plug in the bottom of the bearing cover should be removed
and the bearing Àushed with clean grease. A Chevron
SRI-2 or Shell Dolium “R” grease is recommended for
most installations. Do not overgrease as this causes high
bearing temperatures and shortens bearing life. The pump
should be run a short time to eject any excess grease and
the plug then replaced in the bearing cover.
Oil Lubricated Pump
The pump is shipped without oil in the bearing housings.
Fill the reservoir to the proper level from shaft centerline as
follows:
The following lubricants are recommended at the operating
temperature indicated. See Figure 5 for correct oil levels.
0°F - 150°F, - S.A.E. #10 Wt. Non-detergent oil
150°F - 250°F, - S.A.E. #20 Wt. Non-detergent oil
Motor bearings should have periodic attention and
lubricated in accordance with the motor manufacturer’s
recommendations.
2. PACKING BOX
The packing glands should be adjusted occasionally to
insure proper packing lubrication. A slow dripping through
the gland is recommended for good lubrication and long
packing and shaft sleeve life.
When installing new rings of packing, clean packing box
and inspect parts for any damage. If the shaft sleeve is
worn or grooved, it should be replaced. New packing will
not do an adequate sealing job on a worn shaft sleeve.
Insert two new rings of packing in front of lantern ring.
Stagger joints to minimize leakage.
Tamp each ring in place. Replace lantern ring. Add two
rings of packing behind lantern ring. Replace gland and
bolts, rotate shaft and tighten gland securely. Loosen the
gland and add the ¿nal ring of packing. Be sure lantern
ring is positioned to receive lubrication through ori¿ce.
Tighten nuts securely to seat packing and rotate shaft.
After rotating several turns, loosen nuts to ¿nger tight for
starting.
3. WEARING RINGS
Wearing rings are ¿tted in the casing on all pumps and
are standard on the impeller of all pumps with 8” or larger
discharge. (Optional on smaller units). These wearing rings
provide a close running clearance, to reduce the quantity
of liquid leaking from the high pressure side to the suction
side. These rings depend on the liquid in the pump for
lubrication. They will eventually wear so that the clearance
becomes greater and more liquid passes into the suction.
This rate of wear depends on the character of the liquid
pumped. When worn excessively these rings will cause
the pump to loose ef¿ciency and should be replaced.
Recommended wear ring clearances are as follows:
Model C.I. or Bz. Stainless Steel
5061 .009/.014 .019/.024
5062 .011/.016 .021/.026
5063 .013/.018 .023/.028
5064 .016/.023 .029/.036
4. DISASSEMBLY
The following procedure is for complete disassembly of the
pump. If complete disassembly is not necessary, use only
those steps which apply.
a. Disconnect coupling from driver before proceeding.
b. Disconnect seal water lines (if used). Remove oiler
piping on oil lube pumps.
c. Remove split gland and clips.
d. Remove bolts and nuts and lift off upper half casing
(1B).
e. Remove gasket (73) and soak in water.
f. Match mark and remove bearing caps (41) and (43).
g. Lift out rotating element.
h. Remove bearing caps.
i. On grease lubricated pumps, open tangs of bearing
lockwasher (69), unscrew and remove bearing lock
nut (22). Remove lockwasher. For oil lubricated
pumps, remove both oil rings (60). Unscrew and
remove both bearing lock nuts (22).

o. If impeller wearing rings are to be replaced remove
all twelve set screws (296) and chisel ring (8) from
impeller (2).
5. REASSEMBLY
The following procedure is for the complete assembly of
the pump. This procedure must be followed for satisfactory
operation. If pump is not completely disassembled, use
only the steps that are applicable.
1. Press impeller wearing rings (8) onto impeller (2)
making sure they are evenly and fully seated.
(Impeller wearing rings are standard on pumps with
8” or larger discharge and optional on smaller units.)
2. Position impeller key (32) on pump shaft (6).
3. Slide impeller onto shaft. Center between shaft
threads.
IMPORTANT! - When placed in casing, the
rotational curve of the impeller blades in
relation to the position of the pump discharge
must be as shown in Figure 6.
4. Slide shaft sleeve gasket (38) over shaft and place
one gasket against each side of the impeller.
5. Thread shaft sleeves (14) and (20) onto shaft,
one right and one left hand thread, but do not draw
up to impeller nut.
6. Place lantern rings (29), or seals (65), seal gaskets
(259) and seal glands (251), on the shaft along with
deÀectors (40).
7. Press lip seals (47) into bearing housings (31) and
(33) with the retaining spring toward the bearings.
Lip seal must be continually lubricated both during
and after assembly.
8. Slide bearings (16) and (18) into bearing housings
(31) and (33). Press only on the outer bearing race
if required.
9. Place bearing assemblies onto shaft. Press only on
the inner bearing race if required.
10. On grease lubricated pumps, place the lock washer
(69) on the shaft and secure the thrust bearing in
place with a lock nut (22).
For oil lubricated pumps, lock the thrust bearing
in place with two nuts (22). Lock nuts must be
installed so that a groove is created between them.
Press a shaft collar (68) onto shaft and against
the inboard bearing. Place an oil ring (60) in the
groove between the two lock nuts and shaft collar.
11. Press bearing dust cover (123) into bearing cover
(37). Then place gaskets (303), (use only on oil
lubricated pumps) and bearing covers (35) and (37)
on bearing housings and secure with cap screws

NOTE: On grease lubricated pumps, the grease
¿tting (207) must match the dowel pin hole in the
bearing housing.
On oil lubricated pumps, the air vent (235) must
match the dowel pin hole in the bearing housing.
12. Position casing wearing rings (7) on the rotating
element and lower the complete assembly into the
lower casing. The tongue on the casing ring must
match the slot in the lower casing.
13. Match bearing caps (41) and (43) to marks on the
casing and position on dowel pins (247) which
extend from the bearing housings. Fasten securely
with cap screws (239).
14. Position impeller in the center of the casing and
tighten both shaft sleeves against the impeller.
15. Position the casing gasket on the lower casing.
NOTE: On pumps with mechanical seals, allow
the gasket to overhand the casing where the
seal gland gasket (259) mates. Trim the excess
prior to tightening the seal gland.
Inspect inside of both casing halves and remove
all foreign objects. Then carefully lower upper
casing (1B) onto dowel pin (246).
16. Place swing bolts (209) in proper positions and
secure the two casing halves together with nuts
(213) and cap screws (215).
For pumps using ring type packing:
Place packing rings (13) over the pump shaft and
slide into stuf¿ng box. Alternate position of ring
splices 120° apart. Position lantern ring so that seal
water passage is in line with the lantern ring.
When packing is complete, place split gland (17),
gland clips (206), and nuts (210) on swing bolts.
Draw nuts down tight to seat bottom rings of
packing, then loosen nuts to ¿nger tight for starting.
For pumps using mechanical seal:
Place nuts on swing bolts and tighten. Attach piping
for seal water if used.
17. Be sure all pipe plugs are in place and rotating
element turns freely.

6. CONVERSION OF GREASE TO OIL
LUBRICATION
(or Oil to Grease Lubrication)
Follow steps 8 through 11 of the Disassembly and
Reassembly sections.
NOTE: Wash bearings, bearing housings and bearing
covers with a suitable solvent to completely remove all
old grease.
E - LOCATING TROUBLE
1. No Liquid Delivered
a. Pump not primed - See Priming
b. Speed too low - Check motor speed and nameplate
c. Discharge head too high
d. Suction lift too high
e. Impeller completely plugged
f. Wrong direction of rotation - Check wiring
g. NPSHA may be too low - pump cavitates check
total NPSHR
h. Suction or discharge valves closed
i. Impeller installed backwards
2. Not Enough Liquid Delivered
a. Air leaks in suction piping
b. Speed to low - Check motor speed
c. Discharge head higher than anticipated.
Check discharge valve/system requirements
d. Suction lift too high
e. Impeller partially plugged
f. Wrong direction of rotation
g. Not enough suction head for hot liquid
h. NPSHA may be too low - pump cavitates
i. Mechanical defects
1. Impeller damage
2. Wear rings worn
j. Air entrainment
k. Flow meter improperly calibrated
l. Impeller installed backwards
3. Not Enough Pressure
a. Speed too low - Check motor speed
b. Air or gas in liquid
c. Incorrect impeller diameter - Check system
requirements
d. Obstruction in pump or piping
e. Air leaks in suction piping
f. Speci¿c gravity lower than speci¿ed - May
require larger pump impeller
g. Defective pressure gauge
h. Mechanical defects
1. Impeller damaged
2. Wear rings worn
4. Pump Works For A While Then Quits
a. Air leaks in suction piping
b. Obstruction in pump or piping
c. Suction lift too high
d. Air or gas in liquid
e. Incomplete priming - See Priming
f. Air leak due to defective shaft packing
g. Air leak through stuf¿ng box when operating with
high vacuum or high suction lift. Install
recirculation piping or pressurize from outside
liquid source.
5. Pump Takes Too Much Power
a. Speed too high - Compare Pump and motor
nameplates
b. Head lower than rating - pumps too much liquid.
Check system requirements
c. Liquid speci¿c gravity or viscosity greater than
expected. Requires large motor.
d. Pump and driver misalignment - Check casing for
pipe strain. Support piping and realign unit
e. Wrong direction of rotation
f. Electrical defects - Check power supply and motor
g. Impeller oversized for system requirements
h. Partial freezing or thickening of liquid when
pumped. Check liquid characteristics.
i. Mechanical defects
1. Bent pump shaft.
2. Impeller binds in casing - Check impeller
adjustment
3. Stuf¿ng box packing too tight. See Packing
6. Excessive Pump Vibration
a. Cavitation at pump suction due to insuf¿cient
NPSHA. Alter installation to reduce NPSHR
b. Impeller out of balance - Check mechanical
(static) balance
c. Pump and motor misalignment
d. Obstruction in pump impeller
e. Pump shaft bent
f. Worn pump bearings
g. Impeller imbalance due to wear or corrosion
h. Motor imbalance
i. Base plate loose on foundation or insuf¿cient
strength to support the load
7. Pump and/or Motor Noise
a. Pump and motor misalignment
b. Pump cavitation
c. Base plate loose or not grouted
d. Pump bearings worn
e. Motor bearings worn or fan rubs housing
f. Foreign matter in pump
g. Broken shaft
h. Liquid velocity in pump or valves due to greater
liquid Àow than anticipated.
i. Pump impeller imbalance due to wear.
