Explanation/comment
Checked
Check that there is a strong, rigid support for the
suction and discharge lines.
As a rule, ordinary wire or band hangers are not
adequate to maintain proper alignment.
Check that the suction or discharge lines are not
forced into position.
Component failure will result if suction or
discharge lines are forced into position.
Check that fittings for absorbing expansion are
installed in the system when considerable
temperature changes are expected.
This helps to avoid strain on the pump.
Check that eccentric reducers, if used, are installed
with the flat side on top.
This eliminates air pockets.
Check that a three-valve bypass has been installed
between the suction and discharge connections.
This is a recommended field option.
Check that the piping to which optional vibration
eliminators are connected is properly anchored to the
floor.
This is necessary for maximum effectiveness.
