SAFETY ‐ SECTION A
This information applies to D Series
electric motor driven diaphragm
pumps. Refer to the manual accompa
nying the motor before attempting to
begin operation.
Before attempting to open or service the
pump:
1. Familiarize yourself with this man
ual.
2. Lock out incoming power to the
motor to ensure that the pump will
remain inoperative.
3. Allow the pump to completely cool
if overheated.
4. Close the discharge valve (if
used).
5. Drain the pump.
This pump is designed to handle non‐
volatile non‐flammable liquids contain
ing specified entrained solids. Do not
attempt to pump volatile, corrosive, or
flammable liquids which may damage
the pump or endanger personnel as a
result of pump failure.
After the pump has been installed, block
the wheels and secure the pump to pre
vent creeping. Make certain that the
pump and all piping or hose connec
tions are tight, properly supported and
secure before operation.
Do not operate the pump without the ec
centric and coupling guards in place
over the rotating parts. Exposed rotat
ing parts can catch clothing, fingers, or
tools, causing severe injury to person
nel.
The gearbox provided on this pump is
designed for operation at 1750 RPM
maximum input speed. If operated at a
higher RPM, pump components may be
destroyed.
Install and operate only an explosion
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
the applicable local code, the National
or local code shall take precedence.
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 make all electrical
connections. make certain that the
pump and motor are properly
grounded; never use gas pipe as an
electrical ground. Be sure that the in
coming power matches the voltage and

D SERIESOM-01516
PAGE A - 2 SAFETY
phase of the pump and motor before
connecting the power source. Do not
run the pump if the voltage is not within
the limits.
All electrical connections must be in ac
cordance with the National Electric
Code. If there is a conflict between the
instructions provided and N.E.C. speci
fications, N.E.C. specifications shall
take precedence. All electrical equip
ment supplied with this pump was in
conformance with N.E.C. requirements
in effect on the date of manufacture.
Failure to follow applicable specifica
tions, or substitution of electrical parts
not supplied or approved by the man
ufacturer, can result in severe injury or
death.
Never install a positive shut‐off valve in the
discharge line; discharge restrictions will
cause excessive friction loss resulting in
overloading and destruction of pump and
drive components. It is strongly recom
mended that unless absolutely necessary,
no positive shut‐off valve be installed in the
suction line; excessive restriction will
cause incomplete filling of the diaphragm
chamber and result in shortened dia
phragm life.

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.
For further assistance, contact your Gorman‐Rupp
distributor or the Gorman‐Rupp Company.
Pump Dimensions
See Figure 1 for the approximate physical dimen
sions of this pump.
OUTLINE DRAWING
Figure 1. Model 4D-X3 3P
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 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 tags, decals, and markings
on the pump assembly, and perform all duties
indicated.
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

OM-01516 D SERIES
PAGE B - 2 INSTALLATION
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.
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.
The pump assembly can be seriously
damaged if the cables or chains used to lift
and move the unit are improperly wrapped
around the pump.
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 pump may have to be supported or shimmed
to provide for level operation or to eliminate vibra
tion.
After the pump has been positioned, block the
wheels and secure the pump to prevent creeping.
SUCTION AND DISCHARGE PIPING
Pump performance is adversely effected by in
creased suction lift, discharge elevation, and fric
tion losses. See Page E‐1 to be sure your overall
application allows the 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.
Never pull a line into place by tightening connec
tions at the pump. Lines near the pump must be in
dependently supported to avoid strain on the
pump which could cause excessive vibration and
increased diaphragm and gear train wear. If hose‐
type lines are used, they should have adequate
support to secure them when filled with liquid and
under pressure.
Fixed, Rigid Piping
This pump is equipped with an integral suction ac
cumulator chamber which promotes an efficient
flow of liquid and acts as an air cushion against
shock. Since the air in this chamber will leak away
during pump operation, the air must be replen
ished periodically. To introduce air into the cham
ber, stop the pump and remove the suction accu
mulator plug and integral gasket; this will break
prime and allow the liquid in the chamber to drain
away through the suction line.
If the pump is mounted in a system with fixed, rigid
piping, it is recommended that a flexible connec
tion be installed at or near the suction and dis
charge ports to absorb shock which would other
wise be transmitted through the drive train and
greatly accelerate pump wear.
In a fixed piping installation, properly sized surge
suppressors must be installed in both suction and
discharge lines. If commercial surge suppressors
are not readily available, air chambers may be fab
ricated from pipe as shown in Figure 2.

NOTE: INSTALL AIR CHAMBERS OFF FLOW LINE TEES
TO AVOID SURFACE TURBULENCE WITHIN CHAMBERS.
Figure 2. Fixed Piping Installation
Note that the air chambers have not been installed
directly in the flow line, but have been installed off
tees to avoid turbulence within the chambers. The
air chambers are fitted with valves to permit intro
duction of small amounts of compressed air to fur
ther dampen shock; this compressed air will leak
away during operation, and should be replaced
from time to time. If the suction chamber floods,
open the suction chamber valve to break prime
and allow the liquid in chamber to drain through
the suction line.
Gauges
If discharge pressure and vacuum suction gauges
are desired, 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.
NOTE
Maximum pump performance is realized at suction
lifts of 5 feet (1,5 m) or less. Use the shortest possi
ble length of suction hose or piping; lengths of 25
feet (7,6 m) or longer will reduce the capacity of the
pump.
It is strongly recommended that no positive shut‐
off valve be installed in the suction line; excessive
restrictions will cause incomplete filling of the dia
phragm chamber and result in short diaphragm
life.
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. The suction line
should not be restricted more than 1 inch below the
nominal suction size.

OM-01516 D SERIES
PAGE B - 4 INSTALLATION
The use of pipe couplings in the suction line is not
recommended.
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 2‐1/4 inch
(57 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.
DISCHARGE LINES
The discharge line must be the same size
as, or larger than, the suction line. Never in
stall or operate the pump with a discharge
line smaller than the suction; a restricted
discharge line will cause excessive friction
loss resulting in overloading and destruc
tion of pump and drive components.
Valves
The pump is provided with integral suction and dis
charge check valves.
Never install a positive shut‐off valve in the
discharge line; discharge restrictions will
cause excessive friction loss resulting in
overloading and destruction of pump and
drive components. It is strongly recom
mended that unless absolutely necessary,
no positive shut‐off valve be installed in the
suction line; excessive restriction will
cause incomplete filling of the diaphragm
chamber and result in shortened dia
phragm life.
ALIGNMENT
Before attempting to open or service the
pump:
1. Familiarize yourself with this man
ual.
2. Shut off incoming power to the mo
tor and lock it out to ensure that the
pump will remain inoperative.
3. Allow the pump to completely cool
if overheated.
4. Close the discharge valve (if
used).
5. Drain the pump.
It is imperative that alignment be checked
before the pump is operated.
The pump and motor were aligned and secured at
the factory, but fastening hardware may have loos
ened during shipment. It is imperative that this
hardware and the alignment be checked after the
pump is installed and before operation. Adjust
ments may be made by loosening the securing
hardware and shifting or shimming components
as required.
To check coupling alignment, use a feeler gauge or
taper gauge between the coupling halves every

D SERIES OM-01516
PAGE B - 5INSTALLATION
90_. The coupling is in alignment when the hubs
are the same distance apart at all points.
To check parallel adjustment, lay a straightedge
across both coupling halves at the top, bottom and
sides. The horizontal parallel adjustment is correct
when the straightedge rests evenly on both halves
of the coupling at all points. Use a feeler gauge be
tween the coupling to measure any misalignment.
Do not operate the pump without the ec
centric and coupling guards in place
over the rotating parts. Exposed rotat
ing parts can catch clothing, fingers, or
tools, causing severe injury to person
nel.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Before connecting the motor to the incoming pow
er, check that the electrical service available
matches the pump motor requirements stamped
on the motor nameplate.
The pump must be operated in the direc
tion indicated by the arrow on the gearbox
and on the accompanying decals. Reverse
rotation could cause pump components to
be destroyed.
Only install an explosion proof motor in an explo
sive atmosphere. Be sure the motor is compatible
with the intended application.
Install and operate only an explosion
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
the applicable local code, the National
or local code shall take precedence.

OM-01516
D SERIES
OPERATION PAGE C - 1
OPERATION - SECTION C
Review all SAFETY information in Section A.
Follow the instructions on all tags, labels and
decals attached to the pump.
This pump is designed to handle non‐
volatile non‐flammable liquids contain
ing specified entrained solids. Do not
attempt to pump volatile, corrosive, or
flammable liquids which may damage
the pump or endanger personnel as a
result of pump failure.
After the pump has been installed, block
the wheels and secure the pump to pre
vent creeping. Make certain that the
pump and all piping or hose connec
tions are tight, properly supported and
secure before operation.
Pump application will affect its performance, espe
cially discharge velocities. Consult the Gorman‐
Rupp factory for actual performance levels for the
pump.
Install the pump and piping as described in IN
STALLATION. Make sure that the piping connec
tions are tight, and that the pump is securely
mounted. Check that components are properly lu
bricated (see LUBRICATION in MAINTENANCE
AND REPAIR).
Make certain that any positive shut‐off
valve installed in the suction line is open
before operating the pump; excessive re
striction will cause incomplete filling of the
diaphragm chamber and result in short
ened diaphragm life. No positive shut‐off
valve should be installed in the discharge
line.
STARTING
Consult the operations manual furnished with the
motor before starting the pump. Open any valves
installed in the suction line and start the pump.
OPERATION
The pump is designed to operate at ap
proximately 52 cycles per minute through
a gearbox with A 33.34:1 ratio and a 1750
RPM maximum input drive. Make certain
that the electric motor installed does not
exceed this rpm; otherwise, pump compo
nents may be destroyed.
Priming
The pump may not prime immediately because the
suction line must first fill with liquid. If the pump fails
to prime within five minutes, stop the motor and
check the suction line for leaks.
OPERATION CHECKS
Gearbox Check
Check that the gearbox is properly lubricated (see
LUBRICATION in MAINTENANCE AND RE
PAIR).
Leakage Check
No leakage should be visible at pump mating sur
faces, connections or fittings. Keep all line connec
tions and fittings tight to maintain maximum pump
efficiency.
Strainer Check
If a suction strainer has been installed, check and
clean it as necessary. It should be cleaned if pump

OM-01516 D SERIES
OPERATIONPAGE C - 2
flow begins to drop. If a vacuum suction gauge has
been installed, monitor and record the readings
regularly to detect strainer blockage.
Accumulator Chamber Check
Check periodically to ensure that there is sufficient
air in the integral suction accumulator chamber.
Replenish as required (see Fixed, Rigid Piping in
Section B for details).
STOPPING
After stopping the pump, shut off incoming power
to the motor and lock it out to ensure that the pump
will remain inoperative.
If the pump will be idle for more than a few hours, or
if it has been pumping liquids containing a large
amount of solids, flush it with clean water.
Cold Weather Preservation
The primary construction materials of this
pump are aluminum, with neoprene flap
valves and diaphragm. Do not attempt to
clean or flush this pump with any liquid
which would attack pump fittings or com
ponents. avoid cleaning with cleaning sol
vent.
In below freezing conditions, drain the water from
the pump and the lines when the pump is not in op
eration. Also, clean out any solids by flushing with a
hose.
GEARBOX TEMPERATURE CHECK
The gearbox runs higher than ambient tempera
tures because of heat generated by friction. Tem
peratures of approximately 200_F (93_C) are con
sidered normal, and can operate intermittently at
250_F (121_C).
Checking gearbox temperatures by hand is inac
curate. Place a contact‐type thermometer against
the housing and record this temperature for future
reference.
A sudden increase in gearbox temperature is a
warning that the bearings are at the point of failing.
Make certain that the bearing lubricant is of the
proper viscosity and at the correct level (see LU
BRICATION in Section E). Bearing overheating
can also be caused by shaft misalignment and/or
excessive vibration.
When pumps are first started, the bearings may
seem to run at temperatures above normal. Con
tinued operation should bring the temperatures
down to normal levels within 20 minutes or less.
