Goulds Pumps IC - IOM - Manual (Page 59)

WARNING:
• Never use heat to disassemble the pump due to the risk of an explosion from trapped liquid.
5. Tighten the jackscrews evenly, using an alternating pattern, in order to remove the back pull-out
assembly.
You can use penetrating oil if the adapter to the casing joint is corroded.
6. Remove the back pull-out assembly from the casing (102V).
7. Mark and remove the shims from under the frame foot and save them for reassembly.
8. Remove and discard the casing gasket.
You will insert a new casing gasket during reassembly.
9. Remove the jackscrews.
10. Clean all gasket surfaces.
Clean surfaces prevent the casing gasket from partially adhering to the casing due to binders and
adhesives in the gasket material.
Remove the coupling hub
1. Clamp the frame adapter securely to the workbench.
2. Remove the coupling hub.
Mark the shaft for relocation of the coupling hub during reassembly.
Remove the impeller
WARNING:
Never apply heat to remove an impeller. The use of heat may cause an explosion due to trapped liquid,
resulting in severe physical injury and property damage.
CAUTION:
Wear heavy work gloves when you handle impellers. The sharp edges can cause physical injury.
1. If the impeller has back vanes, note the axial clearance (a) between the impeller (230) and the casing
cover (161).
