4 INSTALLATION

Equipment operated in hazardous locations

must comply with the relevant explosion protection

regulations. See section 1.6.4, Products used in

potentially explosive atmospheres.

4.1 Thrust bearing pot installation

Pots are either delivered to the customer fully

assembled except for the oil/cooling piping

extension, or pre-installed in the pump.

Before installation remove all items from the pump

discharge head.

a) Remove any debris and thoroughly clean the

surface receiving the pot with solvent. Apply a

thin film of mineral oil to the surface.

b) Remove the screws [6570.2] from the pot, the

adjusting nut [2909] and the oil flinger, oil

thrower [2540].

c) Remove the key [6700.1] from the pump shaft.

Thoroughly clean, with solvent if necessary, the

exposed surface of the shaft and apply a thin

film of mineral oil to it.

d) Install the pot and the rest of the assembly in

the pump. Take care not to damage the pump

shaft during the pot installation and to properly

match the alignment fits of the pump and pot.

e) Rotate the pot assembly on its receiving

surface to match up the holding holes.

f) Install the key [6700.1]. The keyway position is

reached by turning the centering sleeve [2470].

g) Re-install the pot holding bolts.

h) Re-install the oil flinger, oil thrower [2540].

i) Re-install the adjusting nut [2909].

j) Regulate the pump rotor axial play by turning,

as necessary, the adjusting nut [2909].

k) Re-install the screws [6570.2].

l) Re-install the items removed from the

discharge head and the pot piping extensions.

Use Heldite or similar proprietary pipe thread

sealant to seal the piping extensions, where

customer practices permit PTFE based pipe

sealants or PTFE tape these can also be

utilized.

m) Fill the pot with lubricant up to the required

level. Open the vent plug [6521] while filling.

For 7000s and 7000s + 6000s series

the oil level is the centre of the oil level sight

glass; for 29000s + 22000s series the oil level

is indicated in the sectional drawing.

n) Check the oil level before operation. Also,

when specified, check that the piping system is

ready to provide proper cooling to the pot.

edges on the shaft keyway and trademark

stamps on the shaft.

d) Thoroughly clean the shaft and housing bore.

e) Concentricity of the housing bore to the shaft is

to be maintained within 0.13 mm (0.005 in.)

TIR.
