8.2.7 Remove the last stage impeller and last stage

diffuser.

NOTE: Further disassembly will require removal of the

mechanical seal. It is recommended that a new

mechanical seal be installed at reassembly.
8.2.8 Lubricate the shaft with a 50/50 solution of

glycerin and water. Remove the rotary portion

of the mechanical seal.

8.2.9 Remove the pump body and motor adapter as-

sembly from the motor.

8.2.10 Remove the stationary portion of the mechan-

ical seal from the pump body.

8.2.11 Remove the motor adapter from the pump

body.

8.2.12 To remove the pump shaft from the motor.

Heat must be applied to the pump shaft at the

largest diameter. This is required to break the

bond of the Loctite

®

#271 between the pump

and motor shafts.

9. REASSEMBLY

9.1 All parts should be cleaned before reassembly.
9.2 Refer to parts list to identify required replacement

items. Specify pump index or catalog number when

ordering parts.

9.3 Reassembly is the reverse of disassembly.

Observe the following when reassembling the pump:
9.4
Check the shaft runout. Maximum permissible is

.010” TIR at the end of the shaft.

9.5 Apply Loctite ‘PrimerN’ and Loctite

®

#271 to motor

shaft, thread pump shaft in place and torque to 30 lb.

of torque.

9.6 Lubricate pump shaft and pump body stationary seat

holder with a 50/50 glycerin and water solution prior

to installation of mechanical seal components.

9.7 Inspect casing o-ring and impeller o-rings for damage

or wear and replace if necessary.

9.8 O-rings may be lubricated with glycerin and water

solution or petroleum jelly to ease assembly.

9.9 Tighten casing screws to 10 lb.ft. of torque using a

star pattern to prevent o-ring binding.

10. TROUBLESHOOTING CHART

MOTOR NOT RUNNING

(See causes 1 through 6)
LITTLE OR NO LIQUID DELIVERED

(See causes 7 through 17)
POWER CONSUMPTION TOO HIGH

(See causes 4, 17, 18, 19, 22)
EXCESSIVE NOISE AND VIBRATION

(See causes 4, 6, 9, 13, 15, 16, 18, 20, 21, 22)

PROBABLE CAUSE
1. Tripped thermal protector
2. Open circuit breaker
3. Blown fuse
4. Rotating parts binding
5. Motor wired improperly
6. Defective motor
7. Not primed
8. Discharge plugged or valve closed
9. Incorrect rotation
10. Foot valve too small, suction not submerged,

inlet screen plugged

11. Low voltage
12. Phase loss (3-phase only)
13. Air or gasses in liquid
14. System head too high
15. NPSHA too low:

Suction lift too high or suction losses excessive

Check with vacuum gauge

16. Impeller worn or plugged
17. Incorrect impeller diameter
18. Head too low, causing excessive flow rate
19. Viscosity or specific too high
20. Worn bearings
21. Pump or piping loose
22. Pump and motor misaligned
