PAGE A -- 1SAFETY

SAFETY --- SECTION A

This information applies to T Series ba-sic pumps. Gorman-Rupp has no con-trol over or particular knowledge of thepower source which will be used. Referto the manual accompanying the powersource before attempting to begin oper-ation.

This manual will alert personnel toknown procedures which require spe-cial attention, to those which coulddamage equipment, and to those whichcould be dangerous to personnel. How-ever, this manual cannot possibly antici-pate and provide detailed instructionsand precautions for every situation thatmight occur during maintenance of theunit. Therefore, it is the responsibility ofthe owner/maintenance personnel toensure that only safe, established main-tenance procedures are used, and thatany procedures not addressed in thismanual are performed only after estab-lishing that neither personal safety norpump integrity are compromised bysuch practices.

Before attempting to open or service thepump:

1. Familiarize yourself with this man-ual.

2. Disconnect or lock out the powersource to ensure that the pump willremain inoperative.

3. Allow the pump to completely coolif overheated.

4. Check the temperature beforeopening any covers, plates, orplugs.

5. Close the suction and dischargevalves.

6. Vent the pump slowly and cau-tiously.

7. Drain the pump.

This pump is designed to handle low pHresistance residues and slurries con-taining large entrained solids. Do not at-tempt to pump volatile or flammable ma-terials which may damage the pump orendanger personnel as a result of pumpfailure.

After the pump has been positioned,make certain that the pump and all pip-ing connections are tight, properly sup-ported and secure before operation.

Do not operate the pump without theguards in place over the rotating parts.Exposed rotating parts can catch cloth-ing, fingers, or tools, causing severe in-jury to personnel.

Do not remove plates, covers, gauges,pipe plugs, or fittings from an over-heated pump. Vapor pressure within thepump can cause parts being disen-gaged to be ejected with great force. Al-low the pump to cool before servicing.

T SERIESOM--03199

PAGE A -- 2 SAFETY

Do not operate the pump against aclosed discharge valve for long periodsof time. If operated against a closed dis-charge valve, pump components willdeteriorate, and the liquid could cometo a boil, build pressure, and cause thepump casing to rupture or explode.

Use lifting and moving equipment ingood repair and with adequate capacityto prevent injuries to personnel or dam-age to equipment. Suction and dis-charge hoses and piping must be re-moved from the pump before lifting.

PAGE B -- 1INSTALLATION

INSTALLATION --- SECTION B

Review all SAFETY information in Section A.

Since pump installations are seldom identical, thissection offers only general recommendations andpractices required to inspect, position, and ar-range the pump and piping.

Most of the information pertains to a standardstatic lift application where the pump is posi-tioned above the free level of liquid to be pumped.

If installed in a flooded suction application wherethe liquid is supplied to the pump under pressure,some of the information such as mounting, line

configuration, and priming must be tailored to thespecific application. Since the pressure suppliedto the pump is critical to performance and safety,be sure to limit the incoming pressure to 50% ofthe maximum permissible operating pressure asshown on the pump performance curve.

For further assistance, contact your Gorman-Ruppdistributor or the Gorman-Rupp Company.

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, damagedthreads, 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.

PAGE B -- 2 INSTALLATION

c. Carefully read all warnings and cautions con-tained in this manual or affixed to the pump,and perform all duties indicated. Note the di-rection of rotation indicated on the pump.Check that the pump shaft rotates counter-clockwise when facing the impeller.

Only operate this pump in the direction in-dicated by the arrow on the pump bodyand on the accompanying decal. Refer toROTATION in OPERATION, Section C.

d. Check levels and lubricate as necessary. Re-fer to LUBRICATION in the MAINTENANCEAND REPAIR section of this manual and per-form duties as instructed.

e. If the pump and power source have beenstored for more than 12 months, some of thecomponents or lubricants may have ex-ceeded their maximum shelf life. These mustbe inspected or replaced to ensure maxi-mum pump service.

If the maximum shelf life has been exceeded, or ifanything appears to be abnormal, contact yourGorman-Rupp distributor or the factory to deter-mine the repair or updating policy. Do not put thepump into service until appropriate action hasbeen taken.

POSITIONING PUMP

Lifting

Use lifting equipment with a capacity of at least7,400 pounds (3356,6 kg). This pump weighs ap-proximately 1,474 pounds (669 kg), not includingthe weight of accessories and base. Customer in-stalled equipment such as suction and dischargepiping must be removed before attempting to lift.

The pump assembly can be seriouslydamaged if the cables or chains used to liftand move the unit are improperly wrappedaround the pump.

Mounting

Locate the pump in an accessible place as close aspractical to the liquid being pumped. Level mount-ing is essential for proper operation.

The pump may have to be supported or shimmedto provide for level operation or to eliminate vibra-tion.

SUCTION AND DISCHARGE PIPING

Pump performance is adversely effected by in-creased suction lift, discharge elevation, and fric-tion losses. See the performance curve and oper-ating range shown on Page E-1 to be sure youroverall application allows pump to operate withinthe safe operation range.

Materials

Either pipe or hose maybe used for suction anddischarge lines; however, the materials must becompatible with the liquid being pumped. If hose isused 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 aspossible 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.

Connections to Pump

Before tightening a connecting flange, align it ex-actly with the pump port. Never pull a pipe line intoplace by tightening the flange bolts and/or cou-plings.

Lines near the pump must be independently sup-ported to avoid strain on the pump which couldcause excessive vibration, decreased bearing life,and increased shaft and seal wear. If hose-typelines are used, they should have adequate supportto secure them when filled with liquid and underpressure.

OM--03199T SERIES


Gauges

Most pumps are drilled and tapped for installingdischarge pressure and vacuum suction gauges.If these gauges are desired for pumps that are nottapped, drill and tap the suction and dischargelines not less than 18 inches (457,2 mm) from thesuction and discharge ports and install the lines.Installation closer to the pump may result in erraticreadings.

SUCTION LINES

To avoid air pockets which could affect pump prim-ing, the suction line must be as short and direct aspossible. When operation involves a suction lift, theline must always slope upward to the pump fromthe source of the liquid being pumped; if the lineslopes down to the pump at any point along thesuction run, air pockets will be created.

Fittings

Suction lines should be the same size as the pumpinlet. If reducers are used in suction lines, theyshould be the eccentric type, and should be in-stalled with the flat part of the reducers uppermostto avoid creating air pockets. Valves are not nor-mally used in suction lines, but if a valve is used,install it with the stem horizontal to avoid air pock-ets.

Strainers

If a strainer is furnished with the pump, be certainto use it; any spherical solids which pass through astrainer furnished with the pump will also passthrough the pump itself.

If a strainer is not furnished with the pump, but isinstalled by the pump user, make certain that thetotal area of the openings in the strainer is at leastthree or four times the cross section of the suctionline, and that the openings will not permit passageof solids larger than the solids handling capabilityof the pump.

This pump is designed to handle up to 3 inch (76,2)diameter spherical solids.

Sealing

Since even a slight leak will affect priming, head,and capacity, especially when operating with ahigh suction lift, all connections in the suction lineshould be sealed with pipe dope to ensure an air-tight seal. Follow the sealant manufacturer’s rec-ommendations when selecting and applying thepipe dope. The pipe dope should be compatiblewith the liquid being pumped.

Suction Lines In Sumps

If a single suction line is installed in a sump, itshould be positioned away from the wall of thesump at a distance equal to 1 1/2 times the diame-ter of the suction line.

If there is a liquid flow from an open pipe into thesump, the flow should be kept away from the suc-tion inlet because the inflow will carry air down intothe sump, and air entering the suction line will re-duce pump efficiency.

If it is necessary to position inflow close to the suc-tion inlet, install a baffle between the inflow and thesuction inlet at a distance 1 1/2 times the diameterof the suction pipe. The baffle will allow entrainedair to escape from the liquid before it is drawn intothe suction inlet.

If two suction lines are installed in a single sump,the flow paths may interact, reducing the efficiencyof one or both pumps. To avoid this, position thesuction inlets so that they are separated by a dis-tance equal to at least 3 times the diameter of thesuction pipe.

Suction Line Positioning

The depth of submergence of the suction line iscritical to efficient pump operation. Figure 2 showsrecommended minimum submergence vs. veloc-ity.

NOTEThe pipe submergence required may be reducedby installing a standard pipe increaser fitting at theend of the suction line. The larger opening size willreduce the inlet velocity. Calculate the requiredsubmergence using the following formula basedon the increased opening size (area or diameter).

OM--03199 T SERIES


Figure 2. Recommended Minimum Suction Line Submergence vs. Velocity

DISCHARGE LINES

Siphoning

Do not terminate the discharge line at a level lowerthan that of the liquid being pumped unless a si-phon breaker is used in the line. Otherwise, a si-phoning action causing damage to the pumpcould result.

Valves

If a throttling valve is desired in the discharge line,use a valve as large as the largest pipe to minimizefriction losses. Never install a throttling valve in asuction line.

With high discharge heads, it is recommended thata throttling valve and a system check valve be in-stalled in the discharge line to protect the pumpfrom excessive shock pressure and reverse rota-tion when it is stopped.

If the application involves a high dischargehead, gradually close the dischargethrottling valve before stopping the pump.

Bypass Lines

Self-priming pumps are not air compressors. Dur-ing the priming cycle, air from the suction line mustbe vented to atmosphere on the discharge side. Ifthe discharge line is open, this air will be ventedthrough the discharge. However, if a check valvehas been installed in the discharge line, the dis-charge side of the pump must be opened toatmos-pheric pressure through a bypass line installed be-tween the pump discharge and the check valve. Aself-priming centrifugal pump will not prime ifthere is sufficient static liquid head to hold the dis-charge check valve closed.

NOTEThe bypass line should be sized so that it does notaffect pump discharge capacity; however, the by-pass line should be at least 1 inch in diameter to

OM--03199T SERIES


minimize the chance of plugging.

In low discharge head applications (less than 30feet), it is recommended that the bypass line be runback to the wet well, and located 6 inches belowthe water level or cut-off point of the low levelpump. In some installations, this bypass line maybe terminated with a six-to-eight foot length of 1 1/4inch I.D. smooth-bore hose; air and liquid ventedduring the priming process will then agitate thehose and break up any solids, grease, or othersubstances likely to cause clogging.

A bypass line that is returned to a wet wellmust be secured against being drawn intothe pump suction inlet.

It is also recommended that pipe unions be in-stalled at each 90_ elbow in a bypass line to easedisassembly and maintenance.

In high discharge head applications (more than30 feet), an excessive amount of liquid may be by-passed and forced back to the wet well under thefull working pressure of the pump; this will reduceoverall pumping efficiency. Therefore, it is recom-mended that a Gorman-Rupp Automatic Air Re-lease Valve be installed in the bypass line.

Gorman-Rupp Automatic Air Release Valves arereliable, and require minimum maintenance. SeeAUTOMATIC AIR RELEASE VALVE in this sectionfor installation and theory of operation of the Auto-matic Air Release Valve. Consult your Gorman-Rupp distributor, or contact the Gorman-RuppCompany for selection of an Automatic Air ReleaseValve to fit your application.

If the installation involves a flooded suction such asa below-ground lift station. A pipe union and manu-al shut-off valve may be installed in the bleed line toallow service of the valve without shutting down thestation, and to eliminate the possibility of flooding.If a manual shut-off valve is installed anywhere inthe air release piping, it must be a full-opening balltype valve to prevent plugging by solids.

If a manual shut-off valve is installed ina bypass line, it must not be left closedduring operation. A closed manual shut-off valve may cause a pump which haslost prime to continue to operate with-out reaching prime, causing dangerousoverheating and possible explosiverupture of the pump casing. Personnelcould be severely injured.Allow an over-heated pump to cool be-fore servicing. Do not remove plates,covers, gauges, or fittings from an over-heated pump. Liquid within the pumpcan reach boiling temperatures, and va-por pressure within the pump can causeparts being disengaged to be ejectedwith great force. After the pump cools,drain the liquid from the pump by re-moving the casing drain plug. Use cau-tion when removing the plug to preventinjury to personnel from hot liquid.

When properly installed and correctly adjusted tothe specific hydraulic operating conditions of theapplication, the Gorman-Rupp Automatic Air Re-lease Valve will permit air to escape through the by-pass line, and then close automatically when thepump is fully primed and pumping at full capacity.

Theory of Operation

Figures 3 and 4 show a cross-sectional view of theAutomatic Air Release Valve, and a correspondingdescription of operation.

Figure 3. Valve in Open Position

OM--03199 T SERIES


During the priming cycle, air from the pump casingflows through the bypass line, and passes throughthe Air Release Valve to the wet well (Figure 3).

Figure 4. Valve in Closed Position

When the pump is fully primed, pressure resultingfrom flow against the valve diaphragm com-presses the spring and closes the valve (Figure 4).The valve will remain closed, reducing the bypassof liquid to 1 to 5 gallons per minute, until the pumploses its prime or stops.

Some leakage (1 to 5 gallons per min-ute) will occur when the valve is fullyclosed. Be sure the bypass line is di-rected back to the wet well or tank toprevent hazardous spills.

When the pump shuts down, the spring returns thediaphragm to its original position. Any solids thatmay have accumulated in the diaphragm chambersettle to the bottom and are flushed out during thenext priming cycle.

NOTEThe valve will remain open if the pump does notreach its designed capacity or head. Valve closingpressure is dependent upon the discharge head ofthe pump at full capacity. The range of the valveclosing pressure is established by the tension rateof the spring as ordered from the factory. Valve clos-ing pressure can be further adjusted to the exactsystem requirements by moving the spring retain-ing pin up or down the plunger rod to increase ordecrease tension on the spring. Contact your Gor-man-Rupp distributor or the Gorman-Rupp Com-pany for information about an Automatic Air Re-lease Valve for your specific application.

Air Release Valve Installation

The Automatic Air Release Valve must be inde-pendently mounted in a horizontal position andconnected to the discharge line of the self-primingcentrifugal pump (see Figure 5).

NOTEIf the Air Release Valve is to be installed on a stagedpump application, contact the factory for specificinstallation instructions.

Figure 5. Typical Automatic Air Release Valve Installation

The valve inlet line must be installed between thepump discharge port and the non-pressurized sideof the discharge check valve. The valve inlet is atthe large end of the valve body, and is providedwith standard 1 inch NPT pipe threads.

The valve outlet is located at the opposite end ofthe valve, and is also equipped with standard 1inch NPT pipe threads. The outlet should be con-nected to a bleed line which slopes back to the wetwell or sump. The bleed line must be the same sizeas the inlet piping, or larger. If piping is used for thebleed line, avoid the use of elbows whenever pos-sible.

NOTEIt is recommended that each Air Release Valve befitted with an independent bleeder line directedback to the wet well. If multiple Air Release Valvesare installed in a system, they must be fitted with in-dependent bleeder lines; never use a commonmanifold pipe. Contact your Gorman-Rupp dis-tributor or the Gorman-Rupp Company for informa-tion about installation of an Automatic Air ReleaseValve for your specific application.

ALIGNMENT

The alignment of the pump and its power source iscritical for trouble-free mechanical operation. Ineither a flexible coupling or V-belt driven system,the driver and pump must be mounted so that theirshafts are aligned with and parallel to each other. Itis imperative that alignment be checked after thepump and piping are installed, and before opera-tion.

NOTECheck Rotation, Section C, before final alignmentof the pump.

When mounted at the Gorman-Rupp factory, driverand pump are aligned before shipment. Misalign-ment will occur in transit and handling. Pumpsmust be checked and realigned before operation.Before checking alignment, tighten the foundationbolts. The pump casing feet and/or pedestal feet,and the driver mounting bolts should also be tightlysecured.

OM--03199 T SERIES


When checking alignment, disconnectthe power source to ensure that thepump will remain inoperative.

Adjusting the alignment in one directionmay alter the alignment in another direc-tion. Check each procedure after alteringalignment.

Coupled Drives

When using couplings, the axis of the powersource must be aligned to the axis of the pumpshaft in both the horizontal and vertical planes.Most couplings require a specific gap or clearancebetween the driving and the driven shafts. Refer tothe coupling manufacturer’s service literature.

Align spider insert type couplings by using calipersto measure the dimensions on the circumferenceof the outer ends of the coupling hub every 90 de-grees. The coupling is in alignment when the hubends are the same distance apart at all points (seeFigure 6A).

Figure 6A. Aligning Spider-Type Couplings

Align non-spider type couplings by using a feelergauge or taper gauge between the coupling halvesevery 90 degrees. The coupling is in alignmentwhen the hubs are the same distance apart at allpoints (see Figure 6B).

Figure 6B. Aligning Non-Spider Type Cou-plings

Check parallel adjustment by laying a straightedgeacross both coupling rims at the top, bottom, andside. When the straightedge rests evenly on bothhalves of the coupling, the coupling is in horizontalparallel alignment. If the coupling is misaligned,use a feeler gauge between the coupling and thestraightedge to measure the amount of misalign-ment.

V-Belt Drives

When using V-belt drives, the power source andthe pump must be parallel. Use a straightedgealong the sides of the pulleys to ensure that the pul-leys are properly aligned (see Figure 6C). In drivesystems using two or more belts, make certain thatthe belts are a matched set; unmatched sets willcause accelerated belt wear.

they will slip; if the belts are too tight, there will beexcessive power loss and possible bearing failure.Select pulleys that will match the proper speed ra-tio; overspeeding the pump may damage bothpump and power source. Do not operate the pump without the

guard in place over the rotating parts.Exposed rotating parts can catch cloth-ing, fingers, or tools, causing severe in-jury to personnel.

OPERATION PAGE C -- 1

OPERATION --- SECTION C


Follow the instructions on all tags, labels and de-cals attached to the pump.

This pump is designed to handle mildindustrial corrosive, mud and slurriescontaining large entrained solids. Donot attempt to pump volatile, corrosive,or flammable liquids which may dam-age the pump or endanger personnel asa result of pump failure.

Pump speed and operating conditionsmust be within the performance rangeshown on page E-1.

PRIMING

Install the pump and piping as described in IN-STALLATION. Make sure that the piping connec-tions are tight, and that the pump is securelymounted. Check that the pump is properly lubri-cated (see LUBRICATION in MAINTENANCEAND REPAIR).

This pump is self-priming, but the pump shouldnever be operated unless there is liquid in thepump casing.

Never operate this pump unless there isliquid in the pump casing. The pump willnot prime when dry. Extended operation ofa dry pump will destroy the seal assembly.

Add liquid to the pump casing when:

1. The pump is being put into service for thefirst time.

2. The pump has not been used for a consider-able length of time.

3. The liquid in the pump casing has evapo-rated.

Once the pump casing has been filled, the pumpwill prime and reprime as necessary.

After filling the pump casing, reinstalland tighten the fill plug. Do not attemptto operate the pump unless all connect-ing piping is securely installed. Other-wise, liquid in the pump forced outunder pressure could cause injury topersonnel.

To fill the pump, remove the pump casing fill coveror fill plug in the top of the casing, and add cleanliquid until the casing is filled. Replace the fill coveror fill plug before operating the pump.

STARTING

Consult the operations manual furnished with thepower source.

Rotation

The correct direction of pump rotation is counter-clockwise when facing the impeller. The pumpcould be damaged and performance adversely af-fected by incorrect rotation. If pump performanceis not within the specified limits (see the curve onpage E-1), check the direction of power source ro-tation before further troubleshooting.

If an electric motor is used to drive the pump, re-move V-belts, couplings, or otherwise disconnectthe pump from the motor before checking motorrotation. Operate the motor independently whileobserving the direction of the motor shaft, or cool-ing fan.

If rotation is incorrect on a three-phase motor, havea qualified electrician interchange any two of the

T SERIESOM--03199

OPERATIONPAGE C -- 2

three phase wires to change direction. If rotation isincorrect on a single-phase motor, consult the liter-ature supplied with the motor for specific instruc-tions.

OPERATION

Lines With a Bypass

If a Gorman-Rupp Automatic Air Release Valve hasbeen installed, the valve will automatically open toallow the pump to prime, and automatically closeafter priming is complete (see INSTALLATION forAir Release Valve operation).

If the bypass line is open, air from the suction linewill be discharged through the bypass line back tothe wet well during the priming cycle. Liquid willthen continue to circulate through the bypass linewhile the pump is in operation.

Lines Without a Bypass

Open all valves in the discharge line and start thepower source. Priming is indicated by a positivereading on the discharge pressure gauge or by aquieter operation. The pump may not prime imme-diately because the suction line must first fill withliquid. If the pump fails to prime within five minutes,stop it and check the suction line for leaks.

After the pump has been primed, partially close thedischarge line throttling valve in order to fill the lineslowly and guard against excessive shock pres-sure which could damage pipe ends, gaskets,sprinkler heads, and any other fixtures connectedto the line. When the discharge line is completelyfilled, adjust the throttling valve to the required flowrate.

Do not operate the pump against aclosed discharge throttling valve forlong periods of time. If operated againsta closed discharge throttling valve,pump components will deteriorate, andthe liquid could come to a boil, build

pressure, and cause the pump casing torupture or explode.

Leakage

No leakage should be visible at pump mating sur-faces, or at pump connections or fittings. Keep allline connections and fittings tight to maintain maxi-mum pump efficiency.

Liquid Temperature And Overheating

The maximum liquid temperature for this pump is160_ F (71_ C). Do not apply it at a higher operat-ing temperature.

Overheating can occur if operated with the valvesin the suction or discharge lines closed. Operatingagainst closed valves could bring the liquid to aboil, build pressure, and cause the pump to rup-ture or explode. If overheating occurs, stop thepump and allow it to cool before servicing it. Refill

the pump casing with cool liquid.

Allow an over-heated pump to cool be-fore servicing. Do not remove plates,covers, gauges, or fittings from an over-heated pump. Liquid within the pumpcan reach boiling temperatures, and va-por pressure within the pump can causeparts being disengaged to be ejectedwith great force. After the pump cools,drain the liquid from the pump by re-moving the casing drain plug. Use cau-tion when removing the plug to preventinjury to personnel from hot liquid.

As a safeguard against rupture or explosion due toheat, this pump is equipped with a pressure reliefvalve which will open if vapor pressure within thepump casing reaches a critical point. If overheatingdoes occur, stop the pump immediately and allowit to cool before servicing it. Approach any over-heated pump cautiously. It is recommended thatthe pressure relief valve assembly be replaced ateach overhaul, or any time the pump casing over-heats and activates the valve. Never replace thisvalve with a substitute which has not been speci-fied or provided by the Gorman-Rupp Company.

T SERIES OM--03199

OPERATION PAGE C -- 3

Strainer Check

If a suction strainer has been shipped with thepump or installed by the user, check the strainerregularly, and clean it as necessary. The strainershould also be checked if pump flow rate begins todrop. If a vacuum suction gauge has been in-stalled, monitor and record the readings regularlyto detect strainer blockage.

Never introduce air or steam pressure into thepump casing or piping to remove a blockage. Thiscould result in personal injury or damage to theequipment. If backflushing is absolutely neces-sary, liquid pressure must be limited to 50% of themaximum permissible operating pressure shownon the pump performance curve.

Pump Vacuum Check

With the pump inoperative, install a vacuum gaugein the system, using pipe dope on the threads.Block the suction line and start the pump. At oper-

ating speed the pump should pull a vacuum of 20

inches (508,0 mm) or more of mercury. If it doesnot, check for air leaks in the seal, gasket, or dis-charge valve.

Open the suction line, and read the vacuum gaugewith the pump primed and at operation speed.Shut off the pump. The vacuum gauge reading willimmediately drop proportionate to static suctionlift, and should then stabilize. If the vacuum readingfalls off rapidly after stabilization, an air leak exists.Before checking for the source of the leak, checkthe point of installation of the vacuum gauge.

STOPPING

Never halt the flow of liquid suddenly. If the liquidbeing pumped is stopped abruptly, damagingshock waves can be transmitted to the pump andpiping system. Close all connecting valves slowly.

On engine driven pumps, reduce the throttlespeed slowly and allow the engine to idle briefly be-fore stopping.

If the application involves a high discharge

head, gradually close the dischargethrottling valve before stopping the pump.

After stopping the pump, disconnect the powersource to ensure that the pump will remain inop-erative.

Cold Weather Preservation

In below freezing conditions, drain the pump toprevent damage from freezing. Also, clean out anysolids by flushing with a hose. Operate the pumpfor approximately one minute; this will remove anyremaining liquid that could freeze the pump rotat-ing parts. If the pump will be idle for more than afew hours, or if it has been pumping liquids con-taining a large amount of solids, drain the pump,and flush it thoroughly with clean water. To preventlarge solids from clogging the drain port and pre-venting the pump from completely draining, inserta rod or stiff wire in the drain port, and agitate theliquid during the draining process. Clean out anyremaining solids by flushing with a hose.

BEARING TEMPERATURE CHECK

Bearings normally run at higher than ambient tem-peratures because of heat generated by friction.Temperatures up to 160_F (71_ C) are considerednormal for bearings, and they can operate safely toat least 180_F (82_ C).

Checking bearing temperatures by hand is inaccu-rate. Bearing temperatures can be measured ac-curately by placing a contact-type thermometeragainst the housing. Record this temperature forfuture reference.

A sudden increase in bearing temperature is awarning that the bearings are at the point of failingto operate properly. Make certain that the bearinglubricant is of the proper viscosity and at the cor-rect level (see LUBRICATION in MAINTENANCEAND REPAIR). Bearing overheating can also becaused by shaft misalignment and/or excessive vi-bration.

When pumps are first started, the bearings mayseem to run at temperatures above normal. Con-tinued operation should bring the temperaturesdown to normal levels.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

Since pump applications are seldom identical, andpump wear is directly affected by such things asthe abrasive qualities, pressure and temperatureof the liquid being pumped, this section is intendedonly to provide general recommendations andpractices for preventive maintenance. Regardlessof the application however, following a routine pre-ventive maintenance schedule will help assuretrouble-free performance and long life from yourGorman-Rupp pump. For specific questions con-cerning your application, contact your Gorman-Rupp distributor or the Gorman-Rupp Company.

Record keeping is an essential component of agood preventive maintenance program. Changesin suction and discharge gauge readings (if so

equipped) between regularly scheduled inspec-tions can indicate problems that can be correctedbefore system damage or catastrophic failure oc-curs. The appearance of wearing parts should alsobe documented at each inspection for comparisonas well. Also, if records indicate that a certain part(such as the seal) fails at approximately the sameduty cycle, the part can be checked and replacedbefore failure occurs, reducing unscheduled downtime.

For new applications, a first inspection of wearingparts at 250 hours will give insight into the wear ratefor your particular application. Subsequent inspec-tions should be performed at the intervals shownon the chart below. Critical applications should beinspected more frequently.

PUMP AND SEAL DISASSEMBLYAND REASSEMBLY


Follow the instructions on all tags, label and decalsattached to the pump.

This pump requires little service due to its rugged,minimum-maintenance design. However, if it be-comes necessary to inspect or replace the wearingparts, follow these instructions which are keyed tothe sectional views (see Figures 1 and 2) and theaccompanying parts lists.

Many service functions may be performed bydraining the pump and removing the back coverassembly. If major repair is required, the pipingand/or power source must be disconnected. Thefollowing instructions assume complete disassem-bly is required.

Before attempting to service the pump, disconnector lock out the power source and take precautionsto ensure that it will remain inoperative. Close allvalves in the suction and discharge lines.

For power source disassembly and repair, consultthe literature supplied with the power source, orcontact your local power source representative.



2. Disconnect or lock out the powersource to ensure that the pump willremain inoperative.





7. Drain the pump.

Use lifting and moving equipment ingood repair and with adequate capacityto prevent injuries to personnel or dam-age to equipment.

Cleanout Access And Suction Check ValveRemoval

Impeller Removal(Figure 2)

Unscrew the impeller (1) in a counterclockwise di-rection (when facing the impeller). Use cautionwhen unscrewing the impeller; tension on the shaftseal spring will be released as the impeller is re-moved.

Remove the impeller adjusting shims (23). Tie andtag the shims or measure and record their thick-ness for ease of reassembly.

Seal Removal

(Figure 2)

Remove the seal spring. Apply oil to the impellershaft and work it up under the bellows. Slide the ro-tating portion of the seal off the shaft as a unit.

Use a pair of stiff wires with hooked ends to removethe stationary portion of the seal.

An alternate method of removing the stationaryportion of the seal is to remove the hardware (25and 26) and separate the seal plate (3) and gasket(4) from the bearing housing (8). Remove the sealplate O-ring (29).

Position the seal plate on a flat surface with the im-peller side down. Use a wooden dowel or othersuitable tool to press on the back side of the sta-tionary seat until the seat, O-rings, and stationaryelement can be removed.

If no further disassembly is required, refer to SealInstallation.

Shaft and Bearing Removal and Disassembly

(Figure 2)

When the pump is properly operated and main-tained, the bearing housing should not require dis-assembly. Disassemble the shaft and bearingsonly when there is evidence of wear or damage.

Shaft and bearing disassembly in the fieldis not recommended. These operations

should be performed only in a properlyequipped shop by qualified personnel.

Remove the bearing housing drain plug (22) anddrain the lubricant. Clean and reinstall the drainplug.

Disengage the hardware (12 and 13) and slide thebearing cap (15), O-ring (21) and oil seal (11) offthe shaft. Remove the O-ring, and press the oil sealfrom the bearing cap.

Place a block of wood against the impeller end ofthe shaft and tap the shaft and assembled bear-ings (7 and 20) from the bearing housing.

Press the inboard oil seal (6) from the bearng hous-ing. Remove the bearing housing O-rings (5 and30).

After removing the shaft and bearings, clean andinspect the bearings in place as follows.

To prevent damage during removal fromthe shaft, it is recommended that bearingsbe cleaned and inspected in place. It isstrongly recommended that the bearingsbe replaced any time the shaft and bear-ings are removed.

Clean the bearing housing, shaft and all compo-nent parts (except the bearings) with a soft clothsoaked in cleaning solvent. Inspect the parts forwear or damage and replace as necessary.

Most cleaning solvents are toxic andflammable. Use them only in a well ven-tilated area free from excessive heat,sparks, and flame. Read and follow allprecautions printed on solvent contain-ers.

Clean the bearings thoroughly in fresh cleaningsolvent. Dry the bearings with filtered compressedair and coat with light oil.

OM--03199T SERIES


Bearings must be kept free of all dirt andforeign material. Failure to do so will great-ly shorten bearing life. Do not spin drybearings. This may scratch the balls orraces and cause premature bearing fail-ure.

Rotate the bearings by hand to check for rough-ness or binding and inspect the bearing balls. If ro-tation is rough or the bearing balls are discolored,replace the bearings.

The bearing tolerances provide a tight press fitonto the shaft and a snug slip fit into the bearinghousing. Replace the bearings, shaft, or bearinghousing if the proper bearing fit is not achieved.

If bearing replacement is required, remove the out-board bearing retaining ring (19), and use a bear-ing puller to remove the outboard bearing (20) andinboard bearing (7) from the shaft.

Shaft and Bearing Reassembly and Installation

(Figure 2)

Clean the bearing housing, shaft and all compo-nent parts (except the bearings) with a soft clothsoaked in cleaning solvent. Inspect the parts forwear or damage as necessary.


Inspect the shaft for distortion, nicks or scratches,or for thread damage on the impeller end. Dresssmall nicks and burrs with a fine file or emery cloth.Replace the shaft if defective.

Position the inboard oil seal (6) in the bearing hous-ing bore with the lip positioned as shown in Figure2. Press the oil seal into the housing until the face isjust flush with the machined surface on the hous-ing.

To prevent damage during removal fromthe shaft, it is recommended that bearingsbe cleaned and inspected in place. It isstrongly recommended that the bearingsbe replaced any time the shaft and bear-ings are removed.

The bearings may be heated to ease installation.An induction heater, hot oil bath, electric oven, orhot plate may be used to heat the bearings. Bear-ings should never be heated with a direct flame ordirectly on a hot plate.

NOTEIf a hot oil bath is used to heat the bearings, both theoil and the container must be absolutely clean. Ifthe oil has been previously used, it must be thor-oughly filtered.

Heat the bearings to a uniform temperature nohigher than 250_F (120_C), and slide the bearingsonto the shaft, one at a time, until they are fullyseated. This should be done quickly, in one con-tinuous motion, to prevent the bearings from cool-ing and sticking on the shaft.

NOTEPosition the inboard bearing (7) on the shaft as indi-cated by the following illustration.

After the bearings have been installed and allowedto cool, check to ensure that they have not movedaway from the shaft shoulders in shrinking. Ifmovement has occurred, use a suitable sizedsleeve and a press to reposition the bearingsagainst the shaft shoulders.

If heating the bearings is not practical, use a suit-able sized sleeve, and an arbor (or hydraulic) pressto install the bearings on the shaft.

When installing the bearings onto theshaft, never press or hit against the outerrace, balls, or ball cage. Press only on theinner race.

Secure the outboard bearing on the shaft with thebearing retaining ring (19).

Slide the shaft and assembled bearings into thebearing housing until the retaining ring on the out-board bearing seats against the bearing housing.

When installing the shaft and bearings intothe bearing bore, push against the outerrace. Never hit the balls or ball cage.

Press the outboard oil seal (11) into the bearingcap (14) with the lip positioned as shown in Figure2. Replace the bearing cap O-ring (21), and secure

the bearing cap with the hardware (12 and 13). Becareful not to damage the oil seal lip on the shaftkeyway.

Lubricate the bearing housing as indicated in LU-BRICATION.

Seal Reassembly and Installation

(Figures 2 and 6)

Clean the seal cavity and shaft with a cloth soakedin fresh cleaning solvent.


The seal is not normally reused because wear pat-terns on the finished faces cannot be realignedduring reassembly. This could result in prematurefailure. If necessary to reuse an old seal in an emer-gency, carefully wash all metallic parts in freshcleaning solvent and allow to dry thoroughly.

Handle the seal parts with extreme care to preventdamage. Be careful not to contaminate precisionfinished faces; even fingerprints on the faces canshorten seal life. If necessary, clean the faces with anon-oil based solvent and a clean, lint-free tissue.Wipe lightly in a concentric pattern to avoidscratching the faces.

OM--03199T SERIES


Inspect the seal components for wear, scoring,grooves, and other damage that might cause leak-age. Clean and polish the seal area on the impellershaft. If any components are worn, replace thecomplete seal; never mix old and new seal parts.

If a replacement seal is being used, remove it fromthe container and inspect the precision finished

faces to ensure that they are free of any foreignmatter.

To ease installation of the seal, lubricate the O-rings and shaft with water or a very small amountof oil, and apply a drop of light lubricating oil on thefinished faces. Assemble the seal as follows (seeFigure 6).

This seal is not designed for operation attemperatures above 160_F (71_C). Do notuse at higher operating temperatures.Lubricate the stationary seat O-rings with water orlight oil, and install them in the stationary seat. In-stall the stationary seal element in the stationaryseat. Press this stationary subassembly into thefront of the seal plate (3) until it seats squarelyagainst the bore shoulder.

Install the seal plate gasket (5). Position the sealplate and stationary seat over the shaft and secureit to the bearing housing (8) with the hardware (25

and 26). Torque the capscrew to 45 ft. lbs. (540 in.lbs. or 6,2 m kg). Be careful not to damage the sta-tionary element on the shaft threads.

NOTEIt is recommended that a tapered sleeve be in-stalled over the threads of the impeller shaft to easeinstallation of the rotating seal components.

Lubricate the shaft with water or a small amount oflight oil and slide the rotating subassembly (con-sisting of the rotating element, bellows and retain-er) onto the shaft. Apply firm, steady pressure onthe seal retainer as it slides onto the shaft until theseal faces contact.

OM--03199 T SERIES


Install the seal spring. Lubricate the seal as indi-cated in LUBRICATION after the impeller is in-stalled.

Impeller Installation

(Figure 2)

Inspect the impeller, and replace it if cracked orbadly worn. Inspect the impeller and shaft threadsfor dirt or damage, and clean or dress the threadsas required.

The shaft and impeller threads must becompletely clean before reinstalling the im-peller. Even the slightest amount of dirt onthe threads can cause the impeller to seizeto the shaft, making future removal difficultor impossible without damage to the im-peller or shaft.

Install the same thickness of impeller adjustingshims (23) as previously removed. Apply ‘Never-Seez’ or equivalent to the shaft threads and screwthe impeller onto the shaft until tight. Be sure theseal spring seats squarely over the shoulder on theback side of the impeller.

NOTEAt the slightest sign of binding, immediately backthe impeller off, and check the threads for dirt. Donot try to force the impeller onto the shaft.

A clearance of .020 to .025 inch (0,50 to 0,64 mm)between the impeller and the seal plate is recom-mended for maximum pump efficiency. Measurethis clearance, and add or remove impeller adjust-ing shims as required.

NOTEIf the rotating assembly has been installed in thepump casing, this clearance may be measured byreaching through the priming port with a feelergauge.

After the rotating assembly is installed in the pumpcasing, coat the threads of the impeller capscrew(28) with ‘Never-Seez’ or equivalent compound,

and install the impeller washer (27) and capscrew;torque the capscrew to 90 ft. lbs. (1080 in. lbs. or12,4 m. kg.).

Rotating Assembly Installation

(Figure 1)

Install the bearing housing and seal plate O-rings(36 and 37), and lubricate them with light grease.Ease the rotating assembly into the pump casingusing the installation tool. Be careful not to dam-age the O-rings.

Install the pump casing ring (22), and secure it tothe rotating assembly with the inner hardware (25and 26).

NOTEThe inner capscrews are 1/4 inch (3,2 mm) shorterthan the outer capscrews.

Install an equal thickness of rotating assemblyshims (21) under the pump casing ring, and securethe ring to the pump casing with the outer hard-ware (23 and 24).

NOTEIf the pump has been completely disassembled, itis recommended that the wear plate (38) and suc-tion head (49) be reinstalled at this point. The suc-tion head must be in place to adjust the impellerface clearance.

A clearance of .020 to .025 inch (0,50 to 0,64 mm)between the impeller and the wear plate is also rec-ommended for maximum pump efficiency. Thisclearance can be obtained by removing an equalamount of shims from each rotating assemblyshim set until the impeller scrapes against the wearplate when the shaft is turned. Preload the shaftin the direction of the impeller when checkingthis clearance. After the impeller scrapes, add ap-proximately .020 inch (0,50 mm) of shims to eachshim set.

NOTEAn alternate method of adjusting this clearance is toreach through the suction port with a feeler gaugeand measure the gap. Add or subtract rotating as-sembly shims accordingly.

OM--03199T SERIES


Suction Head And Wear Plate Installation

(Figure 1)

Clean any debris from the contacting surfaces inthe pump casing that might prevent a good sealwith the suction head or interfere with the wearplate (38). Inspect the wear plate for wear or dam-age and replace as required. Slide the wear plateinto the pump casing until fully seated.

Replace the suction head gasket (40) and lubricateit with a generous amount of No. 2 grease. Use asuitable hoist and sling to position the suction headagainst the pump casing, and secure it with thehardware (42, 43, 44 and 45).

Suction Check Valve Installation

(Figure 1)

Inspect the check valve assembly (6) and replace itif badly worn.

Reach through the cleanout cover opening withthe check valve, and secure it with the hardware (8,9 and 10).

NOTEIf the check valve body (4) was removed, install thecheck valve and secure the body to the suctionhead with the shoulder type coupling (11)

PRESSURE RELIEF VALVEMAINTENANCE

(Figure 1)

The suction head is equipped with a pressure reliefvalve (46) to provide additional safety for the pumpand operator (refer to Liquid Temperature AndOverheating in OPERATION).

It is recommended that the pressure relief valve as-sembly be replaced at each overhaul, or any timethe pump overheats and activates the valve. Neverreplace this valve with a substitute which has notbeen specified or provided by the Gorman-RuppCompany.

Periodically, the valve should be removed for in-spection and cleaning. When reinstalling the relief

valve, apply ‘Loctite Pipe Sealant With Teflon No.592’, or equivalent compound, on the relief valvethreads. Position the valve as shown in Figure 1with the discharge port pointing down.

Final Pump Assembly

(Figure 1)

Install the shaft key (15, Figure 2) and reconnectthe power source. Be sure to install any guardsused over the rotating members.

Install the suction and discharge lines and open allvalves. Make certain that all piping connections aretight, properly supported and secure.

Be sure the pump and power source have beenproperly lubricated, see LUBRICATION.

Remove the fill cover (27) and fill the pump casingwith clean liquid. Reinstall the fill cover and tightenthe clamp bar screw (32) securing it. Refer to OP-ERATION, Section C, before putting the pumpback into service.

LUBRICATION

Seal Assembly

(Figure 2)

Before starting the pump, remove the vented plug(9) and fill the seal cavity with approximately 25ounces (0,7 liters) of SAE No. 30 non-detergent oil,or to a level just below the tapped vented plug hole.Clean and reinstall the vented plug. Maintain the oilat this level.

Bearings

(Figure 2)

The bearing housing was fully lubricated whenshipped from the factory. Check the oil level regu-larly through the sight gauge (17)and maintain it atthe middle of the gauge. When lubrication is re-quired, add SAE No. 30 non-detergent oil throughthe hole for the air vent (10). Do not over-lubricate.Over-lubrication can cause the bearings to over-heat, resulting in premature bearing failure.

NOTEThe white reflector in the sight gauge must be posi-

OM--03199 T SERIES


tioned horizontally to provide proper drainage.

Under normal conditions, drain the bearing hous-ing once each year and refill with approximately 32ounces (0,95 liter) of clean oil. Change the oil morefrequently if the pump is operated continuously orinstalled in an environment with rapid temperaturechange.

Monitor the condition of the bearing lubri-

cant regularly for evidence of rust or mois-ture condensation. This is especially im-portant in areas where variable hot andcold temperatures are common.

For cold weather operation, consult the factory or alubricant supplier for the recommended grade ofoil.
