I. INSTALLATION - MECHANICAL

All installations should be performed by personnel expe-rienced with the placement, connection, and alignment of pumping equipment. The following instructions are gen-eral in nature, and may not deal with the specifics of your installation. Read these instructions thoroughly before installing and operating your PACO Type KP Double Suction Centrifugal Split Case Pump. Suc-cessful operation depends on careful attention to the pro-cedures described in Sections I, II, III and IV of this manual. Keep this instruction manual handy for future use.

A. PUMP IDENTIFICATION

• All PACO Pumps are identified by Catalog and Serial Numbers. These are stamped on the pump nameplate (Figure 1) affixed to each pump casing and should be referred to in all correspondence with the Company.

PACOPACOPACOPACOPACO

FIGURE 1a

B. RECEIVING

• Check pumping unit for shortages and damages immediately upon arrival. Pump accessories, when required, are packaged in a separate container and shipped with the unit.

• If equipment is damaged in transit, immediately report the damage to the truck line’s agent.

Make a complete report on the freight bill to speed satisfactory adjustment by the carrier.

• Unload and handle the equipment with a sling or tow motor. Do not lift unit by lifting lugs on the pump case or eye.

• Eyebolts on the motor! These are not intended to support the complete pump assembly but to aid in

C. TEMPORARY STORAGE

• If the pump is not to be installed and operated within a few days after arrival, store in a clean, dry area of moderate ambient temperature.

• Rotate the shaft by hand monthly to coat the bear-ings with lubricant and retard oxidation and corro-sion.

• Where applicable, follow motor manufacturer’s storage recommendations.

D. LOCATION

• Locate the pump as close to the suction supply as possible. Use the shortest and most direct suc-tion piping practical. Refer to paragraph H. SUC-

TION (INLET) PIPING.

• Locate the pump below system level wherever possible. This will facilitate priming, assure a steady liquid flow, and provide a positive suction head.

• Make sure sufficient NPSH (Net Positive Suction Head) is provided at the suction end by considering the pump’s location in relation to the entire sys-tem. Available NPSH must always equal or exceed required NPSH specified on the pump performance curve.

• Always allow sufficient accessibility for mainten-ance and inspection. Provide a clear space with ample head room for use of a hoist strong enough to lift the unit.

• Make sure a suitable power source is available for the pump motor. Electrical characteristics should match those specified on the motor data plate, within the limits covered in Sections II & III.

• Avoid pump exposure to sub-zero temperatures to prevent pump liquid from freezing. If freezing conditions exist during shutdown periods, seeSec-tions IIIE and IIIF for specific recommendations.

E. PUMP FOUNDATION

• Your Type KP pump should be permanently installed on a firm, concrete foundation mounting pad of suffi-cient size to dampen any vibration and prevent any deflection or misalignment. The pad may float on springs or be a raised part of the equipment room floor. The foundation should be poured without in-terruption to 3/4 to 1-1/2 inches below the final pump elevation. The top surface should be well scored or

PUMPS

grooved before the concrete sets to provide a suit-able bonding surface for grout. Anchor bolts should be set in pipe sleeves for positioning allowance, as shown in Fig. 2a. Allow enough bolt length for grout, lower base plate flange, nuts and washers. Allow the foundation to cure several days before proceed-ing with pump installation.

F. SECURING THE BASE PLATE

• After the concrete pad has been poured and set, lower the pump base plate over the anchor bolts and rest it on loose adjustment wedges or shims placed

G. PIPING-GENERAL

• Do not use pump as a support for piping! Use pipe hangers or other supports at proper intervals to provide complete piping support near the pump.

• Both suction and discharge piping should be inde-pendently supported and properly aligned to insure no strain is transmitted to the pump when the bolts are tightened. Use of expansion joints or vibration pads does not preclude the need to properly support the piping.

• Do not spring or force piping when making connections!

• Make sure all piping is as direct as possible.

• Avoid unnecessary bends and fittings.

H. SUCTION (INLET) PIPING

The sizing and installation of suction piping is particu-larly important. It must be selected and installed in a manner that minimizes pressure loss and permits suffi-cient liquid flow into the pump during starting and opera-tion. Many NPSH problems can be traced directly to improper design of suction piping systems. Observe the following precautions when installing piping:

• Suction piping should be as direct as possible, and ideally the length should be at least ten times the pipe diameter. Short suction piping can be the same diameter as the suction opening. Longer piping should be one or two sizes larger (depending on length), reducing to the diameter of the suction open-ing near the pump.

• Use an eccentric reducer, with the eccentric side down, as shown in (Fig. 3a on page 5) when reducing pipe diameter to the diameter of the pump suction opening.

• At no time should suction piping be smaller in diameter than the pump suction opening.

• Horizontal suction lines should follow an even gradient, if possible. A gradual upward slope to the pump is recommended for suction lift conditions, and a gradual downward slope for positive suction head.

• Avoid any high points, such as pipe loops, as shown in (Fig. 4a on page 5), that may create air pockets and throttle the system or produce erratic pumping.

24" along each side.

• Shims or wedges must be placed to raise the bottom of the base 3/4" to 1-1/4" above the pad, allowing clearance for grout. Level the pump shaft, flanges, and base plate using a spirit level, adjusting the wedges or shims, as required.

• Check to make sure the piping can be aligned to the pump flanges without placing any strain on either flange.

• After pump alignment has been established, put nuts on foundation bolts and tighten them just enough to keep the unit base plate from moving. Construct a form or dam around the concrete pad and pour grout in and around the pump base. (See Fig. 2a). Grout compensates for uneven foundation, distributes the weight of the unit, and prevents shifting. Use an ap-proved, non-shrinking grout (such as Embeco 636 by Master Builders, Cleveland, Ohio or equivalent).

Allow at least 24 hours for this grout to set before proceeding with piping connections.

• After the grout has thoroughly hardened, check the foundation bolts and tighten if necessary. Recheck the pump alignment after the foundation bolts are se-cured.

PACOPACOPACOPACOPACO

PUMPS

• Install a valve in the suction line to isolate the pump during shutdown and maintenance.

• Valves should always be installed in positions that avoid air pockets. Globe valves should not be used, particularly when NPSH is critical.

• During pumping operation, valves on the suction line must always be at FULL OPEN.

• Pressure gauges properly sized for the range of operation, should be installed in gauge taps on the pump suction and discharge nozzles.

I. DISCHARGE (OUTLET) PIPING

• Short discharge piping can be the same diameter as the pump discharge opening. Longer piping should be one or two sizes larger depending on length.

• Any high points in discharge piping may entrap air or gas and thus retard pump operation. Air vents or bleed valves as a means to release entrapped air are recommended.

• An even gradient is best for long horizontal runs of discharge piping.

• Install a valve near the pump discharge opening to prime and start the pump. The discharge valve is also used to isolate the pump during shutdown and maintenance.

J. SHAFT SEALING-GENERAL COMMENTS

• PACO offers both mechanical seals and packed stuffing boxes as a means to seal the shaft. Pumps with stuffing boxes are normally packed before ship-ment. If the pump is installed within 60 days after shipment, the packing material will be in good condi-tion for operation with a sufficient supply of lubrica-tion. If the pump is stored for a longer period, it may be necessary to repack the stuffing boxes (see Pack-ing Replacement, Page 11, to repack the boxes).

• The stuffing box must be supplied at all times with a source of clean, clear liquid to flush and lubricate the packing (see Packing Replacement, Page 11). When pumps are equipped with mechanical seals, no main-tenance or adjustment is required.

K. GLAND ADJUSTMENT

• Make sure the flushing fluid lines are connected and their valves are open. After pump start-up, with the pump running,the packing gland should be ad-justed to permit 40 or 60 drops per minute leakage, this is required for shaft sleeve lubrication.

FIGURE 3a:

Suction Piping (Eccentric vs. Concentric).

FIGURE 4a: Suction Piping (Avoid high points).

4/06 Supercedes 8/05

PACOPACOPACOPACOPACO

PUMPS

• The packing gland should be tightened evenly to pro-vide uniform compression on the packing material.

Do not operate packing dry, and do not over tighten packing gland to eliminate leaking as the shaft sleeve will become damaged. After initial start up, additional packing and adjustment may be required until the packing is properly seated.

L. MECHANICAL SEALS

• All PACO Type KP Double Suction Centrifugal Split Case Pumps that are equipped with mechanical seals are matched to the conditions for which the pump was sold. Observe the following precautions to avoid seal damage and obtain maximum seal life.

• Do not exceed temperature or pressure limitations for the mechanical seal used.

• Do not run the pump dry or against a closed valve! Dry operation will cause seal failure within minutes.

• Purge all air from the seal chambers and recircula-tion lines prior to operating the pump.

• Clean and purge suction piping in new installations before installing and operating pump. Pipe scale, welding slag and other abrasives can cause rapid seal failure.

• The mechanical seal does not leak at all during normal operation, therefore if any appreciable leak-age occurs, the seal should be removed, inspected and if necessary replaced. Mechanical seals should be stocked as spare parts to reduce equipment down time.

M. COUPLING ALIGNMENT

• The following anchoring and alignment procedure is typical and, if performed with care, should result in a smooth running, trouble-free installation.

• If the pump and motor were shipped mounted on the pump base as an assembly, remove the coupling guard.

• The pump and motor were accurately aligned at the factory, but handling during shipment usually alters this pre-alignment. Using a small straight edge and feeler gauges or a dial indicator, check for horizon-tal, vertical, and angular misalignment of the cou-pling hubs (Fig. 5a).

• Coupling alignment is proper when the dial indicator reads no more than .005" runout in any direction (or when the straight edge contacts both hubs evenly

FIGURE 5a: Checking Angular Alignment.

Checking Angular Alignment

Checking Parallel Alignment in both horizontal and vertical positions). If misalign-ment is detected, loosen the motor and shift or shim as necessary to re-align, then re-tighten bolts. Al-ways align the motor to the pump as piping strain will occur if the pump is shifted.

Never reposition pump on base!

• After final piping connections to the pump have been made, motor wiring compared, correct rotation has been established, and piping filled with liquid, check shaft alignment once again.

• Leave the coupling guards off until the pump prim-ing procedure is completed for a final shaft align-ment check.

• To protect personnel from rotating machinery, Always install coupling guards after installation

WARNING: In the interest of operator safety, the unit must not be operated above the nameplate condi-tions. Such operation could result in unit failure causing injury to operating personnel. Consult in-struction book for proper operation and maintenance of the pump and its supporting components.

Make the following inspections before starting your PACO Type KP Double Suction Centrifugal Split Case Pump:

����� Make sure the suction and discharge piping has been cleaned and flushed to remove dirt and debris before operating pump.

����� Make sure all wiring connections to the motor (and starting device) match the wiring diagram and pro-duce proper rotation.

����� If the motor has been in storage for an extended length of time, either before or after installation, refer to motor instructions before starting.

����� Check the voltage, phase, and line circuit frequency with the motor nameplate.

����� Turn rotating element by hand to make sure it ro-tates freely.

����� Tighten plugs in gauge and drain taps. If the pump is fitted with pressure gauges, keep gauge clocks closed when not in use.

����� Recheck the motor to pump alignment per Coupling Alignment, M, section �.

����� Check suction and discharge piping for leaks, and make sure all flange bolts are securely tightened.

C. MOTOR ROTATION

CAUTION: Never check driver rotation unless pump and driver couplings are disconnected and physically separated. Failure to follow this instruction can re-sult in serious damage to pump and driver if rotation is wrong.

After the unit has been wired and checked to ensure that all components in the system (disconnect device, mag-netic starters, pilot devices and motors) are properly con-nected, check motor rotation as follows:

• Make sure coupling is disconnected, then momen-tarily energize the motors to insure that rotation is correct as indicated by the arrow cast into the pump casing. If rotation is incorrect, interchange is complete; before starting pump!

II. INSTALLATION - ELECTRICAL

A. MOTORS - GENERAL

• All electrical installations should be accomplished by qualified electrician. Disconnect and lock out the electrical power source, before starting any installation or service work.

• Read and match the starting and overload control devices with motor nameplate information. Always follow control manufacturer’s instructions for proper installation and connection.

• Grease lubricated motors are fully lubricated at the time of manufacture and do not require further lubri-cation if prompt installation follows. If the motor has been in storage for six months or longer, refer to Motor Lubrication (page 8), and lubricate before start-ing.

III. OPERATION

A. PRIMING

• The PACO Type KP Double Suction Centrifugal Split Case Pump is not self-priming, and must be com-pletely primed (filled with liquid) before starting.

• If the pump will operate with a positive suction head, prime by opening the suction valve and allow-ing liquid to enter the pump casing. Open the air vent at the top of the upper pump casing and the top of each suction dome, and make sure all air is forced from the pump by liquid before closing.

• IMPORTANT: Rotate the shaft by hand while prim-ing and venting to free entrapped air from the impeller passageways.

• If the pump has suction lift, priming must be accom-plished by other methods. The use of foot valves, ejectors or vacuum pumps, or by manual filling of the pump casing and suction line with liquid are possible methods suggested for this purpose.

• CAUTION: Never run the pump dry in the hope that it will prime itself! Serious damage to the shaft seals, pump wear rings and shaft sleeves will result.

B. PRE-START CHECKLIST

4/06 Supercedes 8/05

PACOPACOPACOPACOPACO

PUMPS

• For overnight or temporary shutdown periods under non-freezing conditions, the pump may remain filled with liquid. Make sure the pump is fully primed be-fore restarting.

• For short or frequent shutdown periods under freez-ing conditions, keep fluid moving within the pump casing and insulate or heat the pump exterior to pre vent freezing.

G. EXTENDED PERIOD SHUTDOWN

• For long shutdowns or to isolate the pump for main-tenance, close the suction and discharge valves. If no suction valve is used and the pump has positive suction head, drain all liquid from the suction line to terminate liquid flow into the pump suction nozzle. If applicable, turn off any external source of cooling or lubricating fluid to the shaft seals. Remove plugs in pump drain and vent taps, as required, and drain all liquid from the pump casing. Remove packing, if ap-plicable.

• If freezing conditions will exist during long shut down periods, after draining the pump, blow out all liquid in passages and pockets with compressed air.

Freezing of pump liquid can also be prevented by filling the pump with antifreeze solution.

• Rotate the shaft by hand monthly to coat bearings with lubricant and retard oxidation and corrosion.

• Where applicable follow motor manufacturer’s storage recommendations.

IV. MAINTENANCE

A. MOTOR LUBRICATION

WARNING: Do not attempt any maintenance, inspection, repair or cleaning in the vicinity of rotating equipment. Such action could result in personal injury to operating personnel.

Before attempting any inspection or repair on the pump, the driver controls must be in the "OFF" position, locked and tagged to prevent injury to personnel performing service on the pump.

• Always follow motor manufacturer’s lubrication instructions if available, and periodically check grease fittings and drain plugs for leaks.

• If lubricating instructions do not accompany motor, refer to (Table 6a) for recommended lubrication peri-ods.

two wires at the motor starter terminals T1 and T2.

• For Wye-Delta motors rotation has to be verified for both wye and delta connections.

D. STARTING THE PUMP

WARNING: The pump must not be operated without an approved coupling guard in place. Failure to ob-serve this warning could result in injury to operating personnel.

• Install coupling guard on flexible coupled units.

• Fully open valve (if any) in suction line, and close valve in discharge line.

• If applicable, turn on any external source of cooling or lubricating fluid to the shaft seals.

• Start the motor (pump).

• Immediately after the pump reaches full operating speed, slowly crack open the discharge valve, and open bleed valves at system high points. Do not open discharge valve completely until system is full of liquid, purged of air and checked for leaks.

• After entirely filling the system, fully open discharge valve and close system bleed valves.

• If the pump is fitted with pressure gauges, open gauge cocks and record pressure reading for future reference. Verify that the pump is performing in ac-cordance with the parameters specified on the per-formance curve.

• Check and record voltage, amperage per phase, and kilowatts, if a watt meter is available.

E. PUMP SHUTDOWN

• The following shutdown procedures will apply in most normal shutdowns for the PACO Type KP Double Suction Centrifugal Split Case Pump. If the pump will be inoperative for an extended length of time, follow storage procedures in Extended Period Shut-down.

• Always close the discharge valve before stopping the pump. Close the valve slowly to prevent hydraulic shock.

• Cut and lock off power to the motor.

• Table 7a lists the recommended types of grease for motor lubrication. These types have all been thor-oughly tested and should be used whenever possible.

B. PUMP BEARING LUBRICATION-

GENERAL COMMENTS

WARNING: Operation of the unit without proper lu-brication can result in overheating of the bearings, bearing failures, pump seizures and actual breakup of the equipment, exposing operating personnel to personal injury.

• PACO Type KP Double Suction Centrifugal Split Case Pumps have bearings that may be “sealed-for-life” (requiring no lubrication), regreaseable or oil-lubed.

• Regreaseable bearings are packed with grease at our factory prior to shipping. This initial filling of grease is good for one year or 2000 hours of normal opera-tion, whichever occurs first. After this time, a regular grease maintenance schedule must be implemented.

(See Table 8a for recommended pump bearing greases).

SRI Grease NLGI No.2

Polystar RB2 NLGI No.2

• To lubricate motor while running or at rest, remove grease drain plug (if any) and filler plug on grease fitting. Grease with clean lubricant until grease ap-pears at drain hole or along motor shaft.

TABLE 8a: Recommended Bearing Grease For Pumps.

• Do not over-grease! Too much grease can cause over-heating and premature bearing failure. The bearing manufacturers recommend that the bottom 1/3 of the bearing be filled with grease. That is all!

• On those PACO Type KP Centrifugal Split Case Pumps ordered with oil lubricated bearings, (See Fig.

9a) a regular oil maintenance program must be enforced. Pumps with oil lubricated bearings are fitted with a transparent reservoir (85) (constant level oiler) that maintains the oil level about the centerline of the lower bearing. When necessary, the oil supply in the reservoir of the constant level oiler must be renewed. To refill, remove the reservoir and fill with oil. After filling with oil replace into operating posi-tion.

• After the first 200 hours of operation the oil should be changed. To change the oil, remove the drain plug (16K) at the bottom of the bearing cover and the filler plug (16B) (which also acts as a vent plug) at the top of the housing. After draining oil, replace the fittings and refill with an acceptable oil selected from Figure 10a. After the first oil change, the oil should be changed again at 2000 hours and then at intervals of 8000 hours or once yearly thereafter.

WATER LUBRICATION

• The stuffing box must be supplied at all times with a source of clean, clear liquid to flush and lubricate the packing. Only a sufficient volume of sealing liquid to create a definite direction of flow from the stuffing box inward to the pump casing is required. Piping from the pump discharge dome to the packing box is supplied on PACO Type KP Double Suction Centrifu-gal Split Case Pumps when requested.

D. PACKING MAINTENANCE

• The stuffing box should be packed with fresh packing before initial start-up, after repairs to the pump,and in case of excessive leakage. Any time the packing is replaced, the shaft sleeves should be inspected for wear, roughness or scouring and replaced with new ones, if necessary. For instructions on filling the stuffing box see Packing Replacement;

for seal gland adjustment see Gland Adjustment.

I. COMPONENT INSPECTION

• While the pump is disassembled, all components should be inspected for wear, damage, deteriora-tion or erosion.

• Shaft sleeves should be inspected and if worn or deeply scored should be replaced.

• Impeller wear ring (if used) and casing wear ring (4B) should be checked for erosion or wear and if badly deteriorated, replaced to renew original pump perfor-mance. The design clearance is .018" to .022" diametrically. Clearances greater than .040" effect pump performance and new rings should be installed.

• Examine the lapped faces of the mechanical seals for scoring, heat checking or cracking. Examine mechanical seal elastomers (rubber components) for deterioration or hardening. Replace mechanical seals if any damage exists.

• Check any external source of cooling or lubricating fluid lines, and/or recirculation lines and ports for clogs, kinks or other restrictions.

• Clean machined mating surfaces of all components to remove grit, grime and/or old sealing material before reassembling pump.

J. REASSEMBLY OF PUMPS

• Reinstall impeller (3D) and key (12A) on shaft (6A), centering impeller on shaft with respect to sleeve or lock nut threads. Be sure impeller is installed on shaft the same way it came off, with vane curvature and per mark made during disassembly. Note that pump will deliver little or no water if impeller is in-stalled backwards.

• Be sure a good O-ring gasket (17S) is in place on each sleeve, if shaft has sleeves. Replace as necessary.

• Replace shaft sleeves (5A, 5D) or nuts, turning them in opposite direction of pump rotation. Do Not place wrench on the part of sleeve that comes in contact with seal or packing. Tighten evenly so impeller position will not shift.
