DESIGN FEATURES
Suction Housing: Stainless steel
Bearing Housing: Cast iron
Pump Rotor: Chrome plated, 300 series stainless steel
Pump Stator: Nitrile, EPDM, Fluoroelastomer
Shaft: 300 series stainless steel
Bearings: Prelubricated, fully sealed ball bearings
Seal: Single or double mechanical seals, packing
Flexible Joint: Prelubricated and sealed
INSTALLATION
Mounting. Provide the proper alignment between the pump
and drive by mounting both to a common flat base. Pump may
be mounted in any position. When mounting vertically, it is
necessary to keep bearings above seals to prevent possible
seal leakage into bearings. Loosen screws on body support
and stator support to rotate pump to desired position.
Pre-Wetting. Prior to connecting pump, wet pump elements
and mechanical seal or packing by adding fluid to be pumped
into suction port. Turn shaft over several times in a clockwise
direction when viewed from the shaft end to work fluid into
pump elements.
Piping. Piping to pump should be self-supporting to avoid
excessive strain on pump housings. The suction port is 1-1/2"
NPT and the discharge port is 1-1/4" NPT. Use pipe “dope” or
tape to facilitate disassembly and to provide seal.
Drive. On belt driven units, adjust belt tension to point of non-
slip. Do not overtighten.
On direct drive units, coupling components should be aligned
and spaced at least 1/16" apart.
– Pump rotation must be clockwise when facing shaft. –
Check direction of rotation before startup.
– Maximum speed is 1750 rpm.
OPERATION
Self-Priming. With wetted pumping elements, the mechanical
seal model pump is capable of 15 feet of suction lift when
operating at 1750 rpm with pipe size equal to port size.
DO NOT RUN DRY. Unit depends on liquid pumped for
lubrication. For proper lubrication, flow rate should be at least
10% of rated capacity.
Storage. Always drain pump for extended storage periods
using pipe plug in suction housing.
Pressure Limits. See Table 1 for maximum discharge
pressure of each model.

Temperature Limits. Unit is capable for service at 10°F to
210°F with nitrile, and to 260°F with EPDM, and 350°F with
fluoroelastomer. Note: an undersize rotor may be required for
elevated temperature applications.
TROUBLESHOOTING
WARNING: Before making adjustments, disconnect power
source and thoroughly bleed pressure from
system. Failure to do so could result in
electric shock or serious bodily harm.
Failure to Pump.
1. Belt or coupling slip: Adjust belt tension or tighten set screw
on coupling.
2. Wrong rotation: Rotation must be clockwise when facing
shaft.
3. Excessive suction lift, vacuum or obstruction in suction
piping.
4. Flexible joint broken; possible excessive pressure: Replace
joint, check pressure at discharge port.
Will Not Start.
1. Insufficient horsepower: Check motor starting torque for
minimum model starting torque given on performance
curves.
2. Low voltage: Check power supply.

Page 2
Noisy Operation.
1. Starved suction: Check fluid supply, length of suction line, and
obstructions in pipe.
2. Bearings worn: Replace parts; check alignment, belt tension,
pressure at discharge port.
3. Broken flexible joint: Replace part; check pressure at discharge
port.
4. Insufficient mounting: Mount to firm base. Vibration-induced
noise can be reduced by using mount pads and hose on
suction and discharge ports.
Pump Overloads.
1. Excessive discharge pressure: Check discharge pressure for
maximum rating given in Table 1. Check for obstruction in
discharge pipe.
2. Excessive temperature.
3. Belt or coupling slip: Check pressure at discharge port.
4. Loose bond in stator: High temperature and caustics will cause
bond between rubber and tube to fail. Replace stator. Check
fluid temperature and pressure at discharge port.
5. Fluid viscosity too high: See chart below for recommended
maximum RPM.
Viscosity CP Limit RPM
1-1,000 1750
1,000-2,500 1200
2,500-5,000 600
5,000-10,000 300
10,000-20,000 175
20,000-50,000 80
Based on 60% min. volumetric efficiency. See PEC449 or consult
Moyno representative for exact values.
6. Motor connected incorrectly: Motor wired for 230 VAC,
connected to 115 VAC service.
Poor Performance.
1. Low pressure; worn stator: Replace stator: Check for
excessive abrasive material in fluid. Check for run dry
condition.
Mechanical Seal Leakage.
1. Leakage at startup: If leakage is slight, allow pump to run
several hours to let faces run in.
2. Persistent seal leakage: Faces may be cracked from freezing
or thermal shock. Replace seal.
Pump Will Not Prime.
1. Air leak on suction side: Check pipe connections. Suction lift
over 15 ft. will cause seal faces to open.
2. Defective mechanical seal: Inspect and repair as necessary.
MAINTENANCE
General. These pumps have been designed for a minimum of
maintenance. The pump is one of the easiest to work on in that
the main elements are very accessible and require few tools to
disassemble.
Bearing Lubrication. The prelubricated, fully sealed bearings do
not require additional lubrication.
PUMP DISASSEMBLY
WARNING: Before disassembling pump, disconnect power
source and thoroughly bleed pressure from
system. Failure to do so could result in electric
shock or serious bodily harm.
1. Disconnect power source.
2. Remove suction and discharge piping.
3. Discharge coupling (9) may be removed from stator (21) by
unscrewing in a counter-clockwise direction (RH thread).
4. Remove stator support clamp screw and remove top half of
stator support (38).
5. Stator (21) may be removed from suction housing (2) by
unscrewing in a counter-clockwise direction (RH thread). Use
strap wrench on stator to avoid crushing with a pipe wrench.
Pull stator (21) from rotor (22). To assist removal of stator, hold
drive shaft (26) from turning and turn stator clockwise when
facing suction housing after disengaging thread.
6. Remove screws (112) holding suction housing (2) to bearing
housing (1) or adapter (74). Remove suction housing and
suction housing gasket (83). Gaskets on cast iron models only.
