************************************************** ************************

NOTE: Large In-Line pumps can deliver up to 158 L per second 2500 gpm and 38 m 125
ft head at 1750 rpm. The use of large In-Line pumps is discouraged due to difficulty
in providing routine servicing and repair. Large in-line pumps including motor
can be more expensive than the preferred base-mounted, flexible coupled end
suction pumps. In some cases floor space is limited so large in-line pumps may
need to be used. Large In-Line pumps come in two basic configurations - split coupled
and close coupled. Split coupled configuration allows mechanical seal maintenance
without disturbing the pump or motor. However, split coupled pumps only allow
the motor shaft to be oriented vertically with motor shaft down. Close coupled
pumps may be mounted with the motor shaft vertical or horizontal but do not
allow mechanical seal maintenance without disturbing the pump or motor.
When mounted horizontally, it is critical that adequate support be provided to
avoid strain on pump parts and piping.

************************************************** ************************

bellows and gasket. The liquid cavity must have a tapped flush line with manual valve to remove air from the seal chamber to allow fast

initial start-up and insure mechanical seal cooling.

2.3.3.4 Spacer Coupling

************************************************** ************************

NOTE: Delete paragraph specifying spacer coupling below when close coupled
pumps are used.

************************************************** ************************

The axially split spacer coupling must be of high tensile aluminum, split to allow the servicing of the seal without disturbing the pump or
motor. Pump coupler must be aligned by the manufacturer before shipment. The motor bracket must contain a carbon steel coupler guard

Submit certified test results.

]PART 3 EXECUTION

3.1 EXAMINATION

After becoming familiar with all details of the work, verify all dimensions in the field and advise the
Contracting Officer of any discrepancy before performing the work.

3.2 INSTALLATION

************************************************** ************************

Page 22
Machine Translated by Google

NOTE: Pump and driver shaft alignment on base mounted, long-coupled

pumps is critical to reduce vibration, increase bearing life, increase coupler
life, and increase mechanical seal life.

Although shafts are typically aligned at factory, some misalignment will

occur during shipping and lifting. Dial indicators or laser devices are called
out to accurately perform final alignment of pump and driver shafts.
Scales, straight edges and calipers provide less accurate alignment and
are only suitable for initial alignment.

************************************************** ************************

Install each pump and motor in accordance with the written instructions of the manufacturer[ and under the direct
supervision of the manufacturer's representative]. Provide access space around the device for
servicing no less than the minimum recommended by the manufacturer.

[3.2.1 Base Mounted, Long-Coupled Pumps

Set the pump baseplate as follows.

to. Place two sets of shims or wedges for each foundation bolt. Lower
baseplate onto foundation bolts and level baseplate both lengthwise and across by adding or removing shims or
mount wedges. A maximum difference of 3 mm 0.125 inches lengthwise and 1.5 mm 0.059 inches

across is allowable.

b. Mount pump and driver on baseplate if not already mounted at

factory. Pump and driver shafts must have initial cold (pump and driver at ambient temperature) alignment
check and final hot (pump and driver at operating temperature) alignment check. Perform cold alignment check
before baseplate is grouted, after baseplate is grouted, and after piping is connected. Perform final alignment
check when pump and driver are at operating temperature. Move or shim only the driver to make
adjustments to prevent strain on the piping installations. Initial alignment may be performed with scales,
straight edges and calipers. Final alignment must be done with dial gauges or laser alignment devices. Final
alignment misalignment may not exceed coupling manufacturer's maximum parallel and angular misalignment
values. When using variable frequency drives, reduce the manufacturer's misalignment values by 50
percent. Remove flexible coupling when performing alignment.

c. Support the connecting piping to ensure that there are no piping loads at the pump flange connections and
connecting piping is not forced into position. [Use concrete for equipment foundations as specified in Section
03 30 00 CAST-IN-PLACE CONCRETE. Provide concrete foundations that are integral with and of the same
class as that of the building floor unless otherwise indicated. Use concrete having a compressive
strength of at least 17 MPa 2,500 psi in foundations that are entirely separated from the surrounding floor.

Install a premolded filler strip between the foundation and floor slab as shown. Furnish foundation bolts, as
required, for proper positioning during the placement of the concrete.]

]3.3 FIELD QUALITY CONTROL

After installation of the pumping units and appliances, including coupling guard, is complete, carry out operating
tests to ensure that

Page 23
Machine Translated by Google

the pumping installation operates properly.[ Make arrangements to have the manufacturer's representatives present when field equipment
tests are done.] Give each pumping unit a running field test in the presence of the Contracting Officer for a minimum of 2 hours. Operate
each pumping unit at its rated capacity or such other point on its head-capacity curve selected by the Contracting Officer. Provide an accurate
and acceptable method of measuring the discharge flow. Tests must assure that the units and appurtenances have been installed
correctly, that there is no objectionable heating, vibration, or noise from any parts, and that all manual and automatic
controls function properly. If any deficiencies are revealed during any tests, correct such deficiencies and reconduct the tests.

Submit test reports in booklet form showing all field tests performed to adjust each component and all field tests performed to prove compliance with
the specified performance criteria, upon completion and testing of the installed system. Each test report must indicate the final position of controls.

3.4 FIELD PAINTING

Do not paint stainless steel, galvanized steel, and nonferrous surfaces.

3.4.1 Touch-up painting

Factory painted items requiring touching up in the field must be thoroughly cleaned of all foreign material, and primed and
topcoated with the manufacturer's standard factory finish.

3.4.2 Exposed Ferrous Surfaces

Paint exposed ferrous surfaces with two coats of enamel paint conforming to SSPC Paint 21. Solvent clean factory primed surfaces before
painting. Surfaces that have not been factory primed must be prepared and primed with one coat of SSPC Paint 25 or in
accordance with the enamel paint manufacturer's recommendations.

3.5 CLOSEOUT ACTIVITIES
