SAFETY - SECTION A
This information applies to 0 Series
electric motor driven pumps. Refer to
the manual accompanying the motor
before attempting to begin operation.
This manual will alert personnel to
known procedures which require spe
cial attention, to those which could
damage equipment, and to those which
could be dangerous to personnel. How
ever, this manual cannot possibly pro
vide detailed instructions and precau
tions for each specific application or for
every situation that might occur during
maintenance of the unit. Therefore, it is
the responsibility of the owner, installer
and/or maintenance personnel to en
sure that applications and/or mainte
nance procedures not addressed in this
manual are performed only after estab
lishing that neither personal safety nor
pump integrity are compromised by
such applications or procedures.
Before attempting to open or service the
pump:
1. Familiarize yourself with this man
ual.
2. Disconnect the incoming power to
the motor and lock it out to ensure
that the pump will remain inopera
tive.
3. Allow the pump to completely cool
if overheated.
4. Check the temperature before
opening any covers, plates, or
plugs.
5. Close the suction and discharge
valves.
6. Vent the pump slowly and cau
tiously.
7. Drain the pump.
This pump is designed to handle petro
leum products or other industrial liq
uids that do not contain large entrained
solids. Do not attempt to pump volatile,
corrosive, or flammable materials which
may damage the pump or endanger per
sonnel as a result of pump failure.
This pump is designed to handle petro
leum products or other industrial liq
uids that do not contain large entrained
solids. All controls must meet industry
standards and codes for use in an ex
plosive atmosphere. Do not attempt to
pump liquids for which the pump and/or
controls have not been approved, or
which may damage the pump or endan
ger personnel as a result of pump fail
ure.
Be certain proper safety practices are
followed before operating or servicing
the pump. Provide adequate ventilation,
prohibit smoking, wear static‐resistant
clothing and shoes. Clean up all fuel
spills immediately after occurrence.
Do not install and operate a non‐explo
sion proof motor in an explosive atmo
sphere. Install, connect, and operate
the motor in accordance with the Na
tional Electric Code and all local codes.
If there is a conflict between the instruc
tions in the manual accompanying the
unit and the National Electric Code or

0 SERIESOM-01060
PAGE A - 2 SAFETY
the applicable local code, the National
or local code shall take precedence.
Because this pump is designed to han
dle volatile and/or flammable liquids,
overheating may produce dangerous
fumes. Take precautions to ensure the
area surrounding the pump is ade
quately ventilated. Allow the pump to
cool and use extreme caution when
venting the pump, or when removing
covers, plates, plugs, or fittings.
After the pump has been positioned,
make certain that the pump and all pip
ing connections are tight, properly sup
ported and secure before operation.
Do not remove plates, covers, gauges,
pipe plugs, or fittings from an over
heated pump. Vapor pressure within the
pump can cause parts being disen
gaged to be ejected with great force. Al
low the pump to cool before servicing.
Do not operate the pump against a
closed discharge valve for long periods
of time. If operated against a closed dis
charge valve, pump components will
deteriorate, and the liquid could come
to a boil, build pressure, and cause the
pump casing to rupture or explode.
Overheated pumps can cause severe
burns and injuries. If overheating of the
pump occurs:
1. Stop the pump immediately.
2. Ventilate the area.
3. Allow the pump to completely cool.
4. Check the temperature before
opening any covers, plates,
gauges, or plugs.
5. Vent the pump slowly and cau
tiously.
6. Refer to instructions in this manual
before restarting the pump.
The electrical power used to operate
this pump is high enough to cause inju
ry or death. Obtain the services of a qu
alified electrician to troubleshoot, test
and/or service the electrical compo
nents of this pump.
Death or serious personal injury and
damage to the pump or components
can occur if proper lifting procedures
are not observed. Make certain that
hoists, chains, slings or cables are in
good working condition and of suffi
cient capacity and that they are posi
tioned so that loads will be balanced
and the pump or components will not be
damaged when lifting. Suction and dis
charge hoses and piping must be re
moved from the pump before lifting. Lift
the pump or component only as high as
necessary and keep personnel away
from suspended objects.
Pumps and related equipment must be in
stalled and operated according to all na
tional, local and industry standards.

PAGE B - 1INSTALLATION
INSTALLATION - SECTION B
Review all SAFETY information in Section A.
Since pump installations are seldom identical, this
section offers only general recommendations and
practices required to inspect, position, and ar
range the pump and piping.
Most of the information pertains to a standard
static lift application where the pump is posi
tioned above the free level of liquid to be pumped.
If installed in a flooded suction application where
the liquid is supplied to the pump under pressure,
some of the information such as mounting, line
configuration, and priming must be tailored to the
specific application. Since the pressure supplied
to the pump is critical to performance and safety,
be sure to limit the incoming pressure to 50% of
the maximum permissible operating pressure as
shown on the pump performance curve.
For further assistance, contact your Gorman‐Rupp
distributor or the Gorman‐Rupp Company.

PAGE B - 2 INSTALLATION
PREINSTALLATION INSPECTION
The pump assembly was inspected and tested be
fore shipment from the factory. Before installation,
inspect the pump for damage which may have oc
curred during shipment. Check as follows:
a. Inspect the pump and motor for cracks,
dents, damaged threads, and other obvious
damage.
b. Check for and tighten loose attaching hard
ware. Since gaskets tend to shrink after dry
ing, check for loose hardware at mating sur
faces.
c. Carefully read all warnings and cautions con
tained in this manual or affixed to the pump,
and perform all duties indicated. Note the di
rection of rotation indicated on the pump.
Check that the pump shaft rotates counter
clockwise when facing the impeller.
Only operate this pump in the direction in
dicated by the arrow on the pump body
and on the accompanying decal. Refer to
ROTATION in OPERATION, Section C.
d. Check levels and lubricate as necessary. Re
fer to LUBRICATION in the MAINTENANCE
AND REPAIR section of this manual and per
form duties as instructed.
e. If the pump and motor have been stored for
more than 12 months, some of the compo
nents or lubricants may have exceeded their
maximum shelf life. These must be inspected
or replaced to ensure maximum pump serv
ice.
If the maximum shelf life has been exceeded, or if
anything appears to be abnormal, contact your
Gorman‐Rupp distributor or the factory to deter
mine the repair or updating policy. Do not put the
pump into service until appropriate action has
been taken.
The electrical power used to operate
this pump is high enough to cause inju
ry or death. Obtain the services of a qu
alified electrician to troubleshoot, test
and/or service the electrical compo
nents of this pump.
POSITIONING PUMP
Lifting
Pump unit weights will vary depending on the
mounting and drive provided. Check the shipping
tag on the unit packaging for the actual weight, and
use lifting equipment with appropriate capacity.
Drain the pump and remove all customer‐installed
equipment such as suction and discharge hoses
or piping before attempting to lift existing, installed
units.
Death or serious personal injury and
damage to the pump or components
can occur if proper lifting procedures
are not observed. Make certain that
hoists, chains, slings or cables are in
good working condition and of suffi
cient capacity and that they are posi
tioned so that loads will be balanced
and the pump or components will not be
damaged when lifting. Suction and dis
charge hoses and piping must be re
moved from the pump before lifting. Lift
the pump or component only as high as
necessary and keep personnel away
from suspended objects.
Mounting
Locate the pump in an accessible place as close as
practical to the liquid being pumped. Level mount
ing is essential for proper operation.
The intermediate is equipped with mounting foot
holes for mounting the pump to a base.

OM-011600 SERIES
PAGE B - 3INSTALLATION
SUCTION AND DISCHARGE PIPING
Pump performance is adversely effected by in
creased suction lift, discharge elevation, and fric
tion losses. See the performance curve and oper
ating range shown on Page E‐1 to be sure your
overall application allows pump to operate within
the safe operation range.
Materials
Either pipe or hose maybe used for suction and
discharge lines; however, the materials must be
compatible with the liquid being pumped. If hose is
used in suction lines, it must be the rigid‐wall, rein
forced type to prevent collapse under suction. Us
ing piping couplings in suction lines is not recom
mended.
Line Configuration
Keep suction and discharge lines as straight as
possible to minimize friction losses. Make mini
mum use of elbows and fittings, which substan
tially increase friction loss. If elbows are necessary,
use the long‐radius type to minimize friction loss.
Connections to Pump
Before tightening a connecting flange, align it ex
actly with the pump port. Never pull a pipe line into
place by tightening the flange bolts and/or cou
plings.
Lines near the pump must be independently sup
ported to avoid strain on the pump which could
cause excessive vibration, decreased bearing life,
and increased shaft and seal wear. If hose‐type
lines are used, they should have adequate support
to secure them when filled with liquid and under
pressure.
Gauges
Most pumps are drilled and tapped for installing
discharge pressure and vacuum suction gauges.
If these gauges are desired for pumps that are not
tapped, drill and tap the suction and discharge
lines not less than 18 inches (457,2 mm) from the
suction and discharge ports and install the lines.
Installation closer to the pump may result in erratic
readings.
SUCTION LINES
To avoid air pockets which could affect pump prim
ing, the suction line must be as short and direct as
possible. When operation involves a suction lift, the
line must always slope upward to the pump from
the source of the liquid being pumped; if the line
slopes down to the pump at any point along the
suction run, air pockets will be created.
Fittings
Suction lines should be the same size as the pump
inlet. If reducers are used in suction lines, they
should be the eccentric type, and should be in
stalled with the flat part of the reducers uppermost
to avoid creating air pockets. Valves are not nor
mally used in suction lines, but if a valve is used,
install it with the stem horizontal to avoid air pock
ets.
Strainers
If a strainer is furnished with the pump, be certain
to use it; any spherical solids which pass through a
strainer furnished with the pump will also pass
through the pump itself.
If a strainer is not furnished with the pump, but is
installed by the pump user, make certain that the
total area of the openings in the strainer is at least
three or four times the cross section of the suction
line, and that the openings will not permit passage
of solids larger than the solids handling capability
of the pump.
This pump is designed to handle up to 3/8‐inch
(9,5 mm) diameter spherical solids.
Sealing
Since even a slight leak will affect priming, head,
and capacity, especially when operating with a
high suction lift, all connections in the suction line
should be sealed with pipe dope to ensure an air
tight seal. Follow the sealant manufacturer's rec
ommendations when selecting and applying the
pipe dope. The pipe dope should be compatible
with the liquid being pumped.
