4.11 For installations with a 2 piece seal split clamp/drive collar; align the seal clamp/

drive collar split lines and alignment key with the seal sleeve slots. This will

ensure maximum clamping force. See Figure 14.

4.12 Evenly tighten the split clamp/drive collar SHCS (group 1-3 standard), the 3

piece tapered ring SHCS (group 4-5 standard), or the cup point drive set screws

(special use with non-hardened shaft or shaft sleeve) to the proper torque val-

ues. See Figure 8.

4.13 Remove centering/setting plate locking bolts. With a screwdriver, pry centering/

setting plates clear of seal flange/gland. Turn centering/setting plates over and

swing outward and secure with locking bolts. Keep centering/setting plates with

seal at all times. See Figure 9.

A screwdriver is used to lever
the centering/setting plate out.

Note:

With motor coupling disconnected (or drive belts loosened) check equip-

ment for free shaft rotation by manually turning by hand 1-2 revolutions. This is

also a good time to check for the proper motor rotation when electrical wires are

being connected. If hard rubs occur or for any subsequent impeller or bearing

adjustments, reverse steps 4.13, 4.12, 4.11, make adjustments, and then repeat

steps 4.11, 4.12, and 4.13. Motor coupling can be reconnected (or drive belts

tightened).

Seal installation is complete. Skip forward to section 6 for any optional features of

your seal.

5 Dry (bearing side) Cartridge Installation

This section describes the installation of the seal cartridge from the dry or bearing side

of the equipment case. This type of cartridge is commonly used on ANSI or back pull

out bearing equipment designs. If your cartridge is designed to install from the wet or

impeller side of the equipment case, consult section 4.
