SITE/FOUNDATION
A pump should be located near the supply of liquid
and have adequate space for operation,
maintenance, and inspection. Be sure to allow for
crane or hoist service.
Baseplate mounted pumps are normally grouted on
a concrete foundation which has been poured on a
solid footing. The foundation must be able to absorb
any vibration and to form a permanent, rigid support
for the pumping unit.
The location and size of foundation bolts are shown
on the outline assembly drawing provided with the
pump data package.
Foundation bolts commonly used are sleeve type
(Fig. 3) and J type (Fig. 4).
