NOTE Not all components or sub-
assemblies of a pumping unit are
necessarily supplied by Flowserve
or part of this delivery.
These user instructions apply only
to the components or sub-

NOTE The following description refers to
pumps without auxiliary carriers.
Should the pump be delivered on an
auxiliary carrier, refer to the pump
