Goulds Pumps 3296M - IOM - Manual (Page 82)

MOUNTING LOCATION
It is recommended to mount monitor in a control room to avoid excessive shock, vibration, dirt, moisture and oil.
The transmitter must be mounted on pump bearing frame, in hole provided. Run connecting wiring through conduit.
INSTRUCTION
1. After pump installation is complete, thread ½" NPT end of transmitter into hole provided in pump bearing
frame (Fig. 3). Tighten until snug.
NOTE: Hole is predrilled on M Group. Hole is only predrilled on S Frames at the factory when Vibration
Monitor System is ordered with the pump. The S Frame is scheduled to come from the factory predrilled in
1993.
2. Mount monitor in appropriate location.
3. Mount a junction box near transmitter and run conduit to monitor. Use flexible conduit from junction box to
transmitter.

! WARNING
Ensure electrical power is OFF until all connections are made and system is ready for operation.
4. Wire transmitter to monitor (Fig. 3).
5. Wire monitor to alarm circuit (Fig. 3).
NOTE: The design of the alarm and motor starter control circuits is the responsibility of the user.
6. Wire monitor to motor starter circuit (Fig. 3).
7. Wire rest for either automatic (Fig. 3) or remote (See Balmac, Inc. instruction).
8. If a relay mute is desired, wire according to Balmac, Inc. instructions.
9. Wire monitor to 120 VAC source (Fig. 3)
LIMIT SETTINGS
1. Limit 1 is intended to be an early warning to alert the operator of a potential problem. Set limit to trip at a
vibration level 25% over the baseline. The baseline is the vibration level measured during operation of a new
properly installed pump. If the baseline exceeds .3 in/sec., determine cause of vibration and correct. Set delay
1 to maximum delay (7 seconds) to avoid nuisance alarms that may occur during transient operation.
2. Limit 2 is intended to shut down the pump to prevent catastrophic failure. Set limit to trip at .5 in/sec. Set
delay 2 to minimum delay (1 second) for quick shutdown response.
