3Applications
A-C Fire Pump Horizontal Split Case Centrifugal Fire
Pumps are designed to provide water to stand pipe,
sprinkler, and hydrant systems for fire suppression in
industrial and commercial facilities.
WARNING
Using the pump in an application other than
as described is considered improper use. A-C
Fire Pump shall assume no liability for
product that is used improperly.
4 Operational Limits
WARNING
Do not operate the pump at pressures, flow
rate or liquid temperature other than those for
which the pump has been rated. Failure to
follow these instructions could result in
serious personal injury or death, or property
damage.
Pumps are not to be operated outside the operating limits
as stated on the nameplate.
4.1 Pumped liquids
The pumps are suitable for clean water that does not
contain solid particles or fibers.
4.2 Liquid temperature
Maximum permissible liquid temperature for motor driven
pump units is 105°F [40°C].
Maximum permissible liquid temperature for engine driven
pump units is dependent on the cooling water
requirements as identified in the Engine Manufacturer’s
Installation Manual.
The pump is designed to handle temperatures up to 250°F
[120°C].
4.3 Pressure limits
The maximum working pressure for the horizontal split-
case series of pumps are as follows:
Type Casing
Material
Maximum
Working
Pressure
psi [bar]
8100 Cast Iron 225 [15]
Ductile Iron 375 [25]

Ductile Iron 650 [45]
9100 Cast Iron 250 [17]
Ductile Iron 375 [25]
Table 1 Maximum Working Pressure
4.4 Ambient temperature
Maximum ambient temperature for motor drive pump units
is 105°F [40°C], based on the maximum ambient rating of
the motor.
Maximum ambient temperature for engine driven pump
units is identified in the engine manufacturer’s installation
manual.
4.5 Pump Speed
The pump speed is listed on the nameplate on the pump
unit.

6.4 Design detail
6.4.1 Casing
The pump casing is made from Cast Iron or Ductile Iron,
and is an axially-split double suction volute design with the
suction and discharge flanges and mounting feet cast
integrally with the lower casing half.
Tapped and plugged holes are provided for priming, vent,
drain, and gauge connections. The upper casing half can
be removed without disturbing the suction or discharge
piping. Pump flanges are made with ANSI Class 125 or
250 drillings, and come in the following combinations,
[Suction/Discharge]: 125/125; 125/250; and 250/250.
The suction and discharge are on a common centerline in
the vertical direction for all pump model types; and on a
common horizontal centerline for model types 8100, 8150,
and 9100.
6.4.2 Impeller
The impeller is an enclosed double suction type made of
bronze, which is statically and hydraulically balanced. The
impeller is firmly secured to the shaft by a key positioned
by shaft sleeves and both locked in place by shaft sleeve
lock nuts.
6.4.3 Shaft
The shaft is made of AISI 1045 or 4140 steel and of ample
size to operate under load with a minimum deflection.
6.4.4 Shaft sleeves
The shaft sleeves are made of bronze and protect the
shaft from wear and from contact with the pumped liquid.
Shaft sleeves are locked in place by threaded bronze
shaft sleeve nuts. An O-ring is furnished under the sleeve
to prevent leakage.
6.4.5 Stuffing Box
The stuffing box consists of die formed, graphite coated,
synthetic fiber packing rings; and a split type gland to
permit removal and access to the packing. The 8100
stuffing box housing is made of cast iron, and is separate
from the pump casing. The stuffing box housing is drilled
and tapped for drain connections.
6.4.6 Casing Rings
The casing rings are made of bronze and are installed
with an anti-rotation device and designed to restrict
leakage across the ring fit.
6.4.7 Bearings
The bearings are grease lubricated rolling type selected to
carry radial and thrust loads. The outboard bearing is
retained to handle the axial thrust.
6.4.8 Bearing Housings
The bearing housings are bolted to the pump and are
piloted to positive alignment of the rotating element. The
housings provide a fit for the inboard bearing that allows
freedom for thermal expansion while the outboard
bearing(s) are clamped in place in order to take all the
thrust loads and keep the rotating element in its proper
axial location. Openings for adding grease and draining
grease are provided.
6.4.9 Baseplate
The baseplate is welded construction, manufactured from
steel and is sufficiently rigid to support the pump and the
driver.
6.4.10 Coupling
The coupling is of the flexible type. The coupling hubs are
secured to the driver and the driven shafts by a setscrew
located over the key.
6.4.11 Coupling Guard
The coupling guard is made of metal, and meets the
requirements of EN ISO 13857.
6.4.12 Rotation
Pumps have a clockwise or counterclockwise rotation
when viewed from its driven end.

6.5 Noise characteristics
The maximum measured A-weighted sound pressure level
[LpA] for the pump and motor, measured at a distance of
3.3 ft. [1m] from the pump, under full load, in accordance
with EN ISO 3746 is 90dB.
The maximum measured A-weighted sound pressure level
[LpA] for the pump and diesel engine, measured at a
distance of 3.3 ft. [1m] from the pump, under full load, in
accordance with EN ISO 3746 is 106dB.
6.6 Scope of supply
The pump unit includes the following items:
Pump
Driver, (motor or engine)
Baseplate
Coupling

6.7 Dimensions and weights
Refer to the general dimensional drawing supplied with
the pump unit
7 Installation
This section describes the installation of a complete
pump unit.
CAUTION
Installations should be performed by persons
qualified in the setting up of pumping
equipment.
WARNING
All electrical work should be carried out by
qualified personnel.
7.1 Location
WARNING
Engine-driven pump units:
The engine must be provided with adequate
ventilation to satisfy the requirements of the
combustion system, and allow adequate
dissipation of radiated heat and exhaust
emissions.
Install the pump in a well-ventilated, dry place above the floor
level wherever possible. Take care to prevent the pump from
freezing during cold weather when not in operation.
The pump should be installed with sufficient space around it
to facilitate ventilation and accessibility for inspection,
maintenance and service. A clear space with ample head
room should be allowed for the use of an overhead crane or
hoist to lift the unit.
Install the pump as near to the suction supply as possible,
with the shortest and most direct suction pipe practical. The
total dynamic suction lift (static lift plus friction losses in
suction line) should not exceed the limits for which the pump
was sold.
When installing the pump, consider its location in relation to
the system to assure that sufficient Net Positive Suction Head
[NPSH] is available at the pump inlet connection. Available
NPSH [NPSHA] must always equal or exceed the required
NPSH [NPSHR] of the pump.
The pump must be primed before starting. Whenever
possible, the pump should be located below the fluid level to
assure priming. This condition provides a positive suction
head on the pump. It is also possible to prime the pump by
pressurizing the suction vessel.
7.2 Foundation
We recommend that the pump unit should be installed on a
concrete foundation, sufficiently substantial to absorb
vibration and to form a permanent, rigid support for the
baseplate.
A base of concrete weighing 3 to 5 times the weight of the
pump unit is recommended.
The foundation should be 3 to 6 inches [75 to 150mm] longer
and wider than that of the baseplate that will be installed.
Foundation bolts must match those of the base plate. The
foundation should be poured without interruption to within 1/2
to 1-1/2 inches [12.7 to 38.1mm] of the finished height. The
top surface of the foundation should be well scored and
