2.1 Operating principle
The pump operates by alternating contraction and
relaxation of a specially designed elastomeric hose.
Two shoes attached 180° apart to a central wheel comp-
ress the hose against the pump body in a fluidtight manner.
Rotation of the wheel causes a flow by displacing the
product into the hose.
The pump body is filled with a special lubricant allowing
shoes to slide easily over the hose, which avoids over-
heating.
2.2 Hose compression
2.3 Pumped liquid
Under normal operation, the pumped liquid is only in
contact with the hose and the inserts which must be
compatible with it.
Three different quality elastomeric hoses are available :
• NR (natural rubber) . . . . . . . . . . . White marking
• NBR (perbunan or buna) . . . . . . . Yellow marking
• EPDM . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Red marking
Inserts are available in AISI 316 stainless steel, in polypro-
pylene (PPH) and in polyfluoride vinylidene (PVDF).
This pumping technology is specially suited to handle
abrasive products.
During the compression stage, abrasive particles may
penetrate the hose wall without damaging it.
Immediately after, these particles are released into the
liquid (the size of particles does not however have to
exceed 15 % of the internal diameter of the hose).
You can contact our Technical Services at any time to ask
for the information you require.
2.4 Pipe diameters
The location of the pump in the transfer or recycling circuit
should always be determined so as to reduce the suction
height and length of the piping as much as possible.
The diameter of the pipes must be determined as a func-
tion of their length on the one hand, and the flow and vis-
cosity of the product on the other, so that head loss
remains within design limits. Therefore it is difficult to
give general and precise directions.
However, we recall that it is never prejudicial to plan for
wide piping diameters, particularly regarding the intake.
For the discharge, it is also possible to plan for a diame-
ter equal to that of the pump's orifices, and on the inta-
ke, for a wider diameter if suction is very strong. In the
case of viscous products, the determination of this dia-
meter is very important since the variation of head loss
is proportional to the viscosity and inversely proportional
to the power of 4th of the diameter. Therefore a small
reduction of piping diameter can have major consequen-
ces. Our Technical Services are always available to pro-
vide you with precise data if you give them accurate
information or, better still, the installation plans.
2.5 Piping assembly
Wherever possible, siphons and reverse slopes in the
suction piping must be avoided and all the gaskets must
be installed with great care to avoid air from entering the
piping.
The elbows must always have a large radius and must
not be assembled too close to the pump flanges, at the
inlet as well as the outlet side.
The stresses exerted by the piping on the pump can
deform the pump parts, increase wear, misalign the bea-
rings and even cause parts to break.
The pipes must be designed to allow thermal expansion
and contraction and be firmly secured (the use of flexi-
ble hoses and expansion loops is recommended).
We recommend placing isolating valves close to the pump
flanges to permit dismantling and replacement without
having to drain the installation. These valves should have
the same diameter as the pipes and, by preference, be a
full bore model.

6/16
NT 1101-B00 11 13 A15 - AS15 e
If the liquid may freeze or solidify, prepare for draining
the piping by installing drain taps at the low points and
air vents at the high points.
In the case of a very high intake or if you wish to prevent
the piping from emptying at shutdown, you can install a
foot valve. It should have a large diameter so as not to
generate additional head loss.
2.6 Direction of rotation
The MOUVEX pump is reversible, this allows it to always
circulate the liquid in the desired direction by choosing
the corresponding direction of rotation.
The intake and discharge sides are determined as follows :
When an observer is placed on pump cover side (oppo-
site to the shaft output), if rotation takes place clockwise,
the intake is on the bottom, on the contrary if the rotation
is anticlockwise, the intake is on the top.
2.7 Liquids containing a high proportion of
particles
In the case where the pumped fluid contains particles,
use the upper flange as the inlet flange.
This facilitates discharge of the sediments formed by the
build-up of the particles contained in the fluid, so this
reduces friction between the hose and the shoes.
Therefore, the pump may be re-started more easily.
2.8 Working with vaccum on the suction side
Because of the operating principle of the pump, using it
with suction pressure lower than the atmospheric pres-
sure will cause a resulting loss of flow more or less in
line with the conditions of the application (hose material,
rotation speed, temperature, etc.).
In order for the pump to generate the normally required
flow, MOUVEX recommends using a vacuum draw kit
inside the body of the pump.
In all cases, when using a vaccum kit, suction pressure
must not be lower than -0,9 barg (-13 psig).
If a vacuum draw kit is not used on an ABAQUE pump
operating with suction pressure lower than atmospheric
pressure, MOUVEX no longer guarantees the perfor-
mance of the pump.
2.9 Handling
The maximum weight of the pump is :
• A15.................................44 kg (97 lb)
• AS15 ..............................26 kg (57 lb)
2.10 Pump location
Provide sufficient clearance around the pump for main-
tenance operations.
Particularly, make sure that there is sufficient clearance
for replacing the hose; the distance between the pump
flanges and the closest obstacle must allow the hose to
be removed, as shown below :
2.11 Anchoring the pump units
The correct seating of the pump is vital for its efficient
operation and its longevity.
The surface must be resistant enough to absorb the
stresses due to the pump unit without deformation.
In the case where the unit is fastened by anchor lugs or
bolts, it must be carefully wedged to prevent any defor-
mation of the chassis when tightening the bolts.

2.12 Alignment of motor / pump and reduction
gearbox / pump shafts
To check the alignment and coupling, use a set square to
control the axial misalignment and feeler gauges for angu-
lar misalignment.
It is important to control the alignment at every step of
installation in order to ensure that none of these steps
generates stress on the pump unit or the pump itself :
• after fastening on foundations
• after fastening the piping
• after the pump has operated at normal operating
temperature.
REMINDER :
Do not rely on the flexible coupling to compensate for
misalignment.
2.13 Electric motors
Check that the supply voltage matches the indications
on the motor rating plate.
Comply with the wiring diagram, make sure the wires are
rated for the power and take care with the contacts
which must be thoroughly tightened.
The motors must be protected by appropriate circuit
breakers and fuses.
Connect the regulatory ground connections.
Check the direction of rotation :
This fundamental checking of the pump must be done
without any product, with the inlet and outlet circuit open
to the air, for example, to avoid any risk of an unexpec-
ted pressure rise. Start the pump empty to check the cor-
rect operation of the connections and check that the
direction of rotation corresponds to installation's inlet
and outlet direction. Follow the instructions below if
necessary to change the direction of rotation.
Three phase motor : switch any two wires of the current
supply.
Two phase motor : switch the two wires of the same
phase.
Single phase motor : comply with the instructions of the
manual supplied with the motor.

3.1 Pump storage
If the pump is inactive for more than 3 months, remove
the hose.
If you do not wish to remove the hose, operate the pump
for 5 minutes once a week.
NOTE :
Check that the wheel is always positioned so that a shoe
is not in the lubricant and not against the hose.
For storage at temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F), specific
precautions must be taken. Refer to § LUBRICATION.
3.2 Hose storage
Hose shelf life is limited to two years from the date of
purchase.
The hoses must be stored in a cool place protected from
light. Exposure to ultraviolet rays accelerates deteriora-
tion of the material, thus reducing shelf life.
3.3 Pumping hot products
When pumping products at high temperatures, take care
when starting the pump for the fist time, tighten the bolts
to compensate for expansion effects.
3.4 Pump filled with product at shutdown
In the case where the pumping circuit is situated between
isolating valves and/or has a check valve, you must bear
in mind the variations in temperature that can occur, lea-
ding in particular to the expansion of the product in the cir-
cuit. In this case, provide a means of releasing the expan-
sion volume. The use of a relief valve can suffice for this
function. The opening pressure of this valve must be com-
patible with the pressure allowed by the parts composing
the circuit.
With products including particles that settle at shutdown, it
is necessary to ensure that the consistency of the deposi-
ted products will not affect the start-up of the pump.
3.5 Starting-up the pump
Before starting up the pump, always ensure that the pum-
ping conditions are correct, with the corresponding valves
open, especially the inlet valve.
For use at temperatures below 0 °C (32 °F), specific pre-
cautions must be taken. Refer to § LUBRICATION.
3.6 Shutting down the pump
When shutting down the pump, we recommend waiting
for the pump to stop completely before closing the val-
ves, especially the inlet valve.
3.7 In the event of the hose breaking
When the hose breaks, there is a risk that the lubricant
may be contaminated by the pumped liquid.
3.8 Scrapping
The pump must be scrapped in compliance with the
regulations in force.
During this operation, particular care must be paid to the
drainage stages of the pump (pumped product).

4.1 Replacing the hose
4.1.1 DISASSEMBLING THE HOSE
Close the inlet and discharge valves, purge the pipes.
Disconnect the pump from inlet and discharge piping.
If the pump is equipped with the "leak detection kit",
which allows the pump to be stopped in the event of the
hose breaking, first the capacitive sensor must be removed
by unscrewing the large PVC ring. See the kit Instructions
for further information.
Drain the lubricant by unscrewing the level plug 33 and
collect the lubricant in a tub.
Put the lubricant level plug 33 back in place.
Retighten cover screws 33 until they make contact.
Free the space as required and explained in § PUMP
LOCATION.
Remove circlips 24 from the suction and discharge
ports.
Loosen and remove screws 48 with their washers 49
and remove brackets 18 from the suction and discharge
ports.
Loosen inlet and discharge clamps 7and 9.
Remove the 2 inserts 12.
Place a tub under the lower port so that the lubricant in
the pump is collected.
NOTES
To insure an optimal life cycle of the hose, it is recom-
mended to replace the worn lubricant by some new
lubricant during any replacement of hose.
The hose may contain a certain volume of the pumped
fluid, but this will be expelled when restarting the pump.
Evacuation of this fluid may also be carried out by run-
ning the pump after having taken all the safety measu-
res required for personal and property protection.
If maintenance of the pump is not carried on site, check
the wheel rotation direction to determine the inlet and
discharge ends.

6.1 Lubrication
The hose is lubricated with a special mixture. MOUVEX
lubricant is recommended to lengthen the service life of
the hose.
It is recommended to change the lubricant when :
• Replacing the hose.
• Replacing the hose due to maintenance operation.
• After 2000 hours of operation.
Amount of lubricant required :
The minimum working or storage temperature for the
pump lubricant is 0°C (32°F).
For use / storage at lower ambient temperatures, it is
necessary to add ethylene glycol to the MOUVEX lubri-
cant. To maintain optimum lubrication, the volume of
ethylene glycol should remain between 4% and 6% of
the total volume of lubricant, and the total quantity of
lubricant present in the pump must be in compliance
with the value specified above.
In any case, the ambient temperature should never be
lower than -20°C (-4°F).
6.2 Hose
Some pumped liquids require the hose to be cleaned
after each operation to prevent solidification of the fluid
inside the hose.
The hose can be easily washed with a cleaning agent
that is compatible with the hose material and the pumped
product.
It is recommended that the hose be monitored so that it
can be replaced before any breakdown should occur.
Preventive replacement is advisable.
Temperature threshold values for the liquid pumped
depend directly on the materials that make up the hose.
Refer to technical characteristics on the cover page for
the corresponding values.
It is important to note that the temperature of the pumped
liquid influences the limits of use of the pump and that a
rise of the temperature of the pumped liquid has to come
along with a modification of the service pressure / of the
speed of rotation so as to respect the limits defined in §
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS.
When required, you can contact our Technical Services
at any time to ask for the information you require.
6.3 Seals
6.3.1 SHAFT SEAL 26
The shaft seal 26 must be replaced if lubricant leakage
is observed near the drip strip, located on the rear side
of the pump body 1.
6.3.2 COVER SEAL 10
The cover seal 10 must be checked when removing the
cover 2and replaced if necessary (see § DISASSEM-
BLING THE COVER).
A15 and AS15 pumps require
0,5 liter of lubricant.
6. MAINTENANCE

15/16
NT 1101-B00 11 13 A15 - AS15 e
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
Electric power supply failure.
Check the connections :
xThere must be 3 phases
xThe connections are suitable for the voltage
(delta-star)
xIf possible, check the parameters for the different
motor frequencies (starting torque, power input…)
When the pump has not been used for a long
period of time, the boss of the wheel has not
been dipped in the lubricant.
As it has not been lubricated, it causes a lot of
resistance on start up.
Operate the pump intermittently to try to free the wheel
but do not be too insistent to prevent the reduction
gear from being damaged.
If the wheel remains stuck, contact your local dealer for
instructions.
THE PUMP
WILL NOT
START
Sediments or other substances have built up
inside the hose and are blocking the pump.
Reverse the pump rotation direction or disassemble
the hose.
If the wheel remains stuck, contact your local dealer for
instructions.
The inlet or discharge valve is partially closed. Open the inlet or discharge valve.
Air is entering the inlet piping. Check the inlet line.
The pumped liquid is too viscous.
Significant pressure drop at inlet.
Check the inlet line
(see § 2.4 PIPE DIAMETERS).
WEAK FLOW
The pump hose is damaged. Replace the hose (see § 4.1 REPLACING THE HOSE).
The lubricant is not suitable. Empty the pump body and replace the lubricant with
one that is recommended by MOUVEX.
The lubricant is dirty or too old. Empty the pump body and replace the lubricant with a
new MOUVEX lubricant.
Temperature of the pumped fluid is too high. Check the maximum fluid temperature allowed for the
hose material.
TEMPERATURE
TOO HIGH
Pump speed too high. Reduce speed.
Lubricant is not suitable. Empty the pump body and replace the lubricant with
one that is recommended by MOUVEX.
Chemical incompatibility between the hose and
the pumped fluid.
Check the compatibility of the hose with the fluid and
replace the hose with another one made of suitable
material.
Temperature of pumped fluid too high. Check the maximum temperature permitted for the
hose.
The discharge pressure is too high. Check the maximum pressure allowed for the pump.
Reduce pressure drop at discharge.
HOSE LIFE TOO
SHORT
Pump speed is too high. Reduce speed.
The pumped fluid contains impurities or
sediments.
Reverse the pump rotation direction and use the upper
port for inlet.
THE HOSE IS
PULLED INTO
THE PUMP
BODY AT INLET Clamp 9is not sufficiently tightened. Retighten the clamp.
