9.3.2
RE‐ASSEMBLY
Before starting assembly of the pump consult the sectional
drawing.
Respect screws and bolts tightening torques.
Check that threads, bearing and gaskets surfaces are clean.
9.3.2.1
ASSEMBLY OF BEARING BRACKET
1. Clean with care the inside of the bearing housing 3200 and the surface
of ball bearings housings.
2. The following methods are recommended to fit the bearings on the
shaft :
rst
1
method : Use a hot plate, hot bath, oven or an induction heater to
heat the bearing race so that it can be easily slided onto the shaft. It will
then shrink and grip the shaft. Heating temperature should never exceed
100°C.
nd
2
method : Press the bearing onto the shaft using a hand press. Make
sure the force is applied on inner bearing race. Take care to avoid
damaging the shaft or the bearing.
3. Slide the assembly in the bearing housing.
4. Install bearing cover and tighten fastening screws.
9.3.2.2
ASSEMBLY OF MECHANICAL SEAL
Assembly is performed in the reverse steps of dismantling.
Using the section drawing of the pump will be necessary.
Extreme cleanliness is required when installing the mechanical
seal onto the shaft sleeve. Avoid damaging the seal faces and the
O'Ring. (shaft must be free from scratches, burrs, ...).
It is recommended to apply lightly grease or a neutral oil to ease
assembly.
Make sure the leap seal is installed in the indicated direction. See sketch
below :
Location of the rotating part of the mechanical seal don't have to
be set. Mechanical seal is set per construction.
All gaskets should be replaced by new ones before assembly. Make sure
PFTE and fiber based gaskets are not bent or broken when handled and
installed.
9.3.3
MOTOR
In order to ensure an optimum lifetime of the integrated motor a
minimum maintenance is necessary : clean cooling fins regularly, check
coupling alignment (if any), check cable gland tightening, ...
Ball bearing lifetime depends on axial and radial forces applied on motor
shaft therefore on the pump design (close‐coupled pump, pump sets
with elastic coupling, ...).
Motor can be fitted with lifetime lubricated ball bearings (identified ZZ
or 2Z) or greased. Greasing nipples are located at the ball bearings and
re‐greasing quantities are indicated on motor nameplate.
See motor instructions manual to find data about maintenance work to
be performed.
9.4 TIGHTENING TORQUES
Tightening torques depend on the material used in the assembly and on
the type of lubricant that is used.
Refer to applicable regulation to know the tightening torques for
the fastening of cast iron or stainless steel made flanges.
The values given below should be only indicative. If real tightening
torques are required please ask our technical services.
