					1.6.3 Safety action   
					1.6 Safety   
					This is a summary of conditions and actions to   
					prevent injury to personnel and damage to the   
					environment and to equipment. For products   
					used in potentially explosive atmospheres   
					section 1.6.4 also applies.   
					1.6.1 Summary of safety markings   
					These User Instructions contain specific safety   
					markings where non-observance of an instruction   
					would cause hazards. The specific safety markings   
					are:   
					NEVER DO MAINTENANCE WORK   
					WHEN THE UNIT IS CONNECTED TO POWER   
					This symbol indicates electrical safety   
					instructions where non-compliance will involve a   
					high risk to personal safety or the loss of life.   
					GUARDS MUST NOT BE REMOVED WHILE   
					THE PUMP IS OPERATIONAL   
					This symbol indicates safety instructions where   
					non-compliance would affect personal safety and   
					could result in loss of life.   
					DRAIN THE PUMP AND ISOLATE   
					PIPEWORK BEFORE DISMANTLING THE PUMP   
					The appropriate safety precautions should be taken   
					where the pumped liquids are hazardous.   
					This symbol indicates “hazardous substances   
					and toxic fluid” safety instructions where non-   
					compliance would affect personal safety and could   
					result in loss of life.   
					FLUORO-ELASTOMERS (When fitted.)   
					When a pump has experienced temperatures over   
					250 ºC (482 ºF), partial decomposition of fluoro-   
					elastomers (example: Viton) will occur. In this   
					condition these are extremely dangerous and skin   
					contact must be avoided.   
					This symbol indicates safety   
					instructions where non-compliance will involve some   
					risk to safe operation and personal safety and would   
					damage the equipment or property.   
					HANDLING COMPONENTS   
					Many precision parts have sharp corners and the   
					wearing of appropriate safety gloves and equipment   
					is required when handling these components. To lift   
					heavy pieces above 25 kg (55 lb) use a crane   
					appropriate for the mass and in accordance with   
					current local regulations.   
					This symbol indicates explosive atmosphere   
					zone marking according to ATEX. It is used in safety   
					instructions where non-compliance in the hazardous   
					area would cause the risk of an explosion.   
					This symbol is used in safety instructions to   
					remind not to rub non-metallic surfaces with a dry   
					cloth; ensure cloth is damp. It is used where non-   
					compliance in the hazardous area would cause the   
					risk of an explosion.   
					THERMAL SHOCK   
					Rapid changes in the temperature of the liquid within   
					the pump can cause thermal shock, which can result   
					in damage or breakage of components and should   
					be avoided.   
					NEVER APPLY HEAT TO REMOVE   
					IMPELLER   
					Trapped lubricant or vapor could cause an explosion.   
					This sign is not a safety symbol but indicates   
					an important instruction in the assembly process.   
					1.6.2 Personnel qualification and training   
					All personnel involved in the operation, installation,   
					inspection and maintenance of the unit must be   
					qualified to carry out the work involved. If the   
					personnel in question do not already possess the   
					necessary knowledge and skill, appropriate training   
					and instruction must be provided. If required the   
					operator may commission the manufacturer/supplier   
					to provide applicable training.   
					HOT (and cold) PARTS   
					If hot or freezing components or auxiliary heating   
					supplies can present a danger to operators and   
					persons entering the immediate area action must be   
					taken to avoid accidental contact. If complete   
					protection is not possible, the machine access must   
					be limited to maintenance staff only, with clear visual   
					warnings and indicators to those entering the   
					immediate area. Note: bearing housings must not be   
					insulated and drive motors and bearings may be hot.   
					Always coordinate repair activity with operations and   
					health and safety personnel, and follow all plant   
					safety requirements and applicable safety and health   
					laws and regulations.   
					If the temperature is greater than 68 °C (175 °F)   
					or below 5 °C (20 °F) in a restricted zone, or   
					exceeds local regulations, action as above shall   
					be taken.

					FM USER INSTRUCTIONS ENGLISH 71576526 - 03/07   
					1.6.4 Products used in potentially explosive   
					atmospheres   
					HAZARDOUS LIQUIDS   
					When the pump is handling hazardous liquids care   
					must be taken to avoid exposure to the liquid by   
					appropriate sitting of the pump, limiting personnel   
					access and by operator training. If the liquid is   
					flammable and/or explosive, strict safety procedures   
					must be applied.   
					The following instructions for pumps and pump   
					units when installed in potentially explosive   
					atmospheres must be followed to help ensure   
					explosion protection.   
					The terminology and procedures ensure that the   
					installed pump is in compliance with the European   
					Directive 94/9/EC, known as the ATEX Directive, which   
					is mandatory in Europe and may also be specified in   
					other countries. Where applicable, both electrical and   
					non-electrical equipment must meet the requirements   
					94/9/EC.   
					Gland packing must not be used when pumping   
					hazardous liquids.   
					PREVENT EXCESSIVE EXTERNAL   
					PIPE LOAD   
					Do not use pump as a support for piping. Do not   
					mount expansion joints, unless allowed by   
					Flowserve in writing, so that their force, due to   
					internal pressure, acts on the pump flange.   
					Even if the installation is in a region where ATEX is not   
					the applicable regulation, the general measures   
					described shall be followed to ensure safe operation.   
					The measures are explained under the headings of:   
					ENSURE CORRECT LUBRICATION   
					(See section 5, Commissioning, startup, operation   
					and shutdown.)   
					 
					 
					 
					 
					 
					Avoiding excessive surface temperature   
					Preventing build up of explosive mixtures   
					Preventing the generation of sparks   
					Preventing leakages   
					START THE PUMP WITH OUTLET   
					VALVE PART OPENED   
					Maintaining the pump to avoid hazard   
					(Unless otherwise instructed at a specific point in the   
					User Instructions.)   
					1.6.4.1 Scope of compliance   
					Use equipment only in the zone for which it is   
					appropriate. Always check that the driver, drive   
					coupling assembly, seal and pump equipment are   
					suitably rated and/or certified for the classification of   
					the specific atmosphere in which they are to be   
					installed.   
					This is recommended to minimize the risk of   
					overloading and damaging the pump motor at full or   
					zero flow. Pumps may be started with the valve   
					further open only on installations where this situation   
					cannot occur. Pump outlet valve shall may need to   
					be adjusted to comply with the duty following the   
					run-up process. (See section 5, Commissioning   
					start-up, operation and shutdown.)   
					Where Flowserve has supplied only the bare shaft   
					pump, the Ex rating applies only to the pump. The   
					party responsible for assembling the pump set shall   
					select the coupling, driver and any additional   
					equipment, with the necessary CE Declaration of   
					Conformity establishing it is suitable for the area in   
					which it is to be installed.   
					NEVER RUN THE PUMP DRY   
					INLET VALVES TO BE FULLY OPEN   
					WHEN PUMP IS RUNNING   
					Running the pump at zero flow or below the   
					recommended minimum flow continuously will cause   
					damage to the seal.   
					The output from a variable frequency drive (VFD) can   
					cause additional heating affects in the motor and so, for   
					pumps sets with a VFD, the ATEX Certification for the   
					motor must state that it is covers the situation where   
					electrical supply is from the VFD. This particular   
					requirement still applies even if the VFD is in a safe   
					area.   
					DO NOT RUN THE PUMP AT   
					ABNORMALLY HIGH OR LOW FLOW RATES   
					Operating at a flow rate higher than normal or at a   
					flow rate with no backpressure on the pump may   
					overload the motor and cause cavitation. Low flow   
					rates may cause a reduction in pump/bearing life,   
					overheating of the pump, instability and   
					cavitation/vibration.

					1.6.4.2 Marking   
					The responsibility for compliance with the   
					specified maximum liquid temperature is with the   
					plant operator.   
					An example of ATEX equipment marking is shown   
					below. The actual classification of the pump will be   
					engraved on the nameplate.   
					Temperature classification “Tx” is used when the   
					liquid temperature varies and the pump could be   
					installed in different hazardous atmospheres. In this   
					case the user is responsible for ensuring that the   
					pump surface temperature does not exceed that   
					permitted in the particular hazardous atmosphere.   
					II 2 GD c IIC 135 ºC (T4)   
					Equipment Group   
					I = Mining   
					II = Non-mining   
					If an explosive atmosphere exists during the   
					Category   
					2 or M2 = High level protection   
					3 = normal level of protection   
					installation, do not attempt to check the direction of   
					rotation by starting the pump unfilled. Even a short   
					run time may give a high temperature resulting from   
					contact between rotating and stationary   
					components. Furthermore, confinement of liquid in   
					the pump and pipes must be avoided (valve closed).   
					If the liquid heats up this may cause excessive   
					pressure and lead to bursting of pump components.   
					Gas and/or Dust   
					G = Gas; D= Dust   
					c = Constructional safety   
					(in accordance with EN 13463-5)   
					Gas Group (Equipment Category 2 only)   
					IIA – Propane (typical)   
					IIB – Ethylene (typical)   
					Where there is any risk of the pump being run against   
					a closed valve generating high liquid and casing   
					external surface temperatures it is recommended that   
					users fit an external surface temperature protection   
					device.   
					IIC – Hydrogen (typical)   
					Maximum surface temperature (Temperature Class)   
					(see section 1.6.4.3)   
					Avoid mechanical, hydraulic or electrical overload by   
					using motor overload trips, temperature monitor or a   
					power monitor and make routine vibration monitoring   
					checks.   
					1.6.4.3 Avoiding excessive surface temperatures   
					ENSURE THE EQUIPMENT TEMPERATURE   
					CLASS IS SUITABLE FOR THE HAZARD ZONE   
					In dirty or dusty environments, regular checks must   
					be made and dirt removed from areas around close   
					clearances, bearing housings and motors.   
					Pumps have a temperature class as stated in the   
					ATEX Ex rating on the nameplate. These are based   
					on a maximum ambient of 40 °C (104 °F); refer to   
					Flowserve for higher ambient temperatures.   
					1.6.4.4 Preventing the build up of explosive   
					mixtures   
					The surface temperature on the pump is influenced   
					by the temperature of the liquid handled. The   
					maximum permissible liquid temperature depends   
					on the temperature class and must not exceed the   
					values in the table that follows.   
					ENSURE PUMP IS PROPERLY FILLED AND   
					VENTED AND DOES NOT RUN DRY.   
					Ensure pump and relevant suction and discharge   
					pipeline system is totally filled with liquid at all times   
					during the pump operation, so that an explosive   
					atmosphere is prevented. In addition it is essential to   
					make sure that seal chambers, auxiliary shaft seal   
					systems and any heating and cooling systems are   
					properly filled.   
					The temperature rise at the seals, bearings and due   
					to the minimum permitted flow rate is taken into   
					account in the temperatures stated.   
					Temperature limit of liquid   
					Maximum   
					surface

					Temperature   
					class to   
					EN 13463-1   
					handled (* depending on   
					material and construction   
					variant - check which is   
					lower)   
					If the operation of the system cannot avoid this   
					condition the fitting of an appropriate dry run   
					protection device is recommended (eg liquid   
					detection or power monitor).

					FM USER INSTRUCTIONS ENGLISH 71576526 - 03/07   
					Where there is a risk from such tools or materials;   
					maintenance must be conducted in a safe area.   
					It is recommended that a maintenance plan and   
					schedule is adopted. (See section 6, Maintenance.)   
					1.6.4.5 Preventing sparks   
					To prevent a potential hazard from mechanical   
					contact, the coupling guard must be non-sparking.   
					To avoid the potential hazard from random induced   
					current generating a spark the ground contact on the   
					baseplate must be used.   
					1.7 Nameplate and safety labels   
					1.7.1 Nameplate   
					For details of nameplate, see the Declaration of   
					Conformity, or separate documentation included with   
					these User Instructions.   
					Avoid electrostatic charge: do not rub non-   
					metallic surfaces with a dry cloth, ensure cloth is   
					damp.   
					Where applicable the coupling must be selected to   
					comply with 94/9/EC and correct alignment must be   
					maintained.   
					1.7.2 Safety labels   
					Additional requirements for metallic pumps on   
					non-metallic baseplates   
					When metallic components are fitted on a non-   
					metallic baseplate they must be individually earthed   
					(grounded).   
					1.6.4.6 Preventing leakage   
					The pump must only be used to handle liquids   
					for which it has been approved to have the correct   
					corrosion resistance.   
					Avoid entrapment of liquid in the pump and associated   
					piping due to closing of suction and discharge valves,   
					which could cause dangerous excessive pressures to   
					occur if there is heat input to the liquid. This can occur   
					if the pump is stationary or running.   
					Bursting of liquid containing parts due to freezing   
					must be avoided by draining or protecting the pump   
					and ancillary systems.   
					Oil lubricated units only:   
					Where there is the potential hazard of a loss of a   
					seal barrier fluid or external flush, the fluid must be   
					monitored.   
					If leakage of liquid to atmosphere can result in a   
					hazard, the installation of a liquid detection device is   
					recommended.   
					1.8 Specific machine performance   
					For performance parameters see section 1.5, Duty   
					conditions. When the contract requirement specifies   
					these to be incorporated into User Instructions these   
					are included here. Where performance data has   
					been supplied separately to the purchaser these   
					should be obtained and retained with these User   
					Instructions if required.   
					1.6.4.7 Maintenance to avoid the hazard   
					CORRECT MAINTENANCE IS REQUIRED   
					TO AVOID POTENTIAL HAZARDS WHICH GIVE A   
					RISK OF EXPLOSION   
					The responsibility for compliance with   
					maintenance instructions is with the plant   
					operator.   
					To avoid potential explosion hazards during   
					maintenance, the tools, cleaning and painting   
					materials used must not give rise to sparking or   
					adversely affect the ambient conditions.

					FM USER INSTRUCTIONS ENGLISH 71576526 - 03/07   
					Similarly the motor noise assumed in the “pump and   
					motor” noise is that typically expected from standard   
					and high efficiency motors when on load directly   
					driving the pump. Note that a motor driven by an   
					inverter may show an increased noise at some   
					speeds.   
					1.9 Noise level   
					Attention must be given to the exposure of personnel   
					to the noise, and local legislation will define when   
					guidance to personnel on noise limitation is required,   
					and when noise exposure reduction is mandatory.   
					This is typically 80 to 85 dBA.   
					If a pump unit only has been purchased for fitting   
					with your own driver then the “pump only” noise   
					levels in the table should be combined with the level   
					for the driver obtained from the supplier. Consult   
					Flowserve or a noise specialist if assistance is   
					required in combining the values.   
					The usual approach is to control the exposure time   
					to the noise or to enclose the machine to reduce   
					emitted sound.   
					You may have already specified a limiting noise level   
					when the equipment was ordered, however if no   
					noise requirements were defined, then attention is   
					drawn to the following table to give an indication of   
					equipment noise level so that you can take the   
					appropriate action in your plant.   
					It is recommended that where exposure approaches   
					the prescribed limit, then site noise measurements   
					should be made.   
					The values are in sound pressure level LpA at 1 m   
					(3.3 ft) from the machine, for “free field conditions   
					over a reflecting plane”.   
					Pump noise level is dependent on a number of   
					operational factors, flow rate, pipework design and   
					acoustic characteristics of the building, and so the   
					values given are subject to a 3 dBA tolerance and   
					cannot be guaranteed.   
					For estimating sound power level LWA (re 1 pW)   
					then add 17 dBA to the sound pressure value.   
					Typical sound pressure level LpA at 1 m reference 20 μPa, dBA

					FM USER INSTRUCTIONS ENGLISH 71576526 - 03/07   
					In areas where the staff has to intervene, remember   
					that when the level of the sound pressure is:   
					To lift machines or pieces with one or several   
					suspension rings, only use hooks and chains in   
					compliance with the local regulations concerning   
					safety.   
					 
					below 70 dBA: it is not necessary to take special   
					precautions.   
					 
					above 70 dBA: people working continuously in   
					the machine room must be supplied with   
					protective devices against noise.   
					below 85 dBA: no particular measures need to   
					be taken for casual visitors staying in the room   
					during a limited period.   
					above 85 dBA: the room must be considered as   
					a dangerous area because of the noise and a   
					warning sign must be fixed at each entry   
					warning the people coming into the room, even   
					for a short period, that they must wear hearing   
					protection.   
					Never put cables, chains or ropes directly on or in   
					the suspension rings. Cables, chains or lifting ropes   
					must never present excessive bending.   
					 
					 
					Never bend the lifting hooks, suspension rings,   
					chains, etc... which should only be made to endure   
					stresses within calculated limits. Remember that the   
					capacity of a lifting device decreases when the   
					direction of the lifting force direction makes an angle   
					with the device axis.   
					To increase the safety and the efficiency of the lifting   
					device, all the lifting elements must be as   
					perpendicular as possible. If necessary a lifting   
					beam can be placed between the winch and the   
					load.   
					 
					above 105 dBA: special hearing protection   
					adapted to this noise level and to the spectral   
					noise components must be installed and a   
					warning sign to this effect erected at each entry.   
					The staff in the room must wear ear protection.   
					When heavy pieces are lifted up, never stay or work   
					under the load or in the area which could be in the   
					path of the load if it were to swing or fall away.   
					Make sure that the noise, which travels through the   
					walls and windows, does not generate too high   
					noise levels in the machine room's surroundings.   
					Never leave a load hanging from a winch. The   
					acceleration or the slowing-down of lifting equipment   
					must stay in the safety limits for the staff.   
					2 TRANSPORT AND STORAGE   
					2.1 Consignment receipt and unpacking   
					Immediately after receipt of the equipment it must be   
					checked against the delivery and shipping   
					documents for its completeness and that there has   
					been no damage in transportation.   
					A winch must be positioned in such a way that the   
					load will be raised perpendicularly. Where possible   
					necessary precautions must be taken to avoid the   
					swing of the load, using for example two winches   
					making approximately the same angle, below 30°,   
					with the vertical.   
					Any shortage and or damage must be reported   
					immediately to the Flowserve and received in writing   
					within one month of receipt of the equipment. Later   
					claims cannot be accepted.   
					2.2.2 Pump masses

					2.5 Recycling and end of product life   
					At the end of the service life of the product or its parts,   
					the relevant materials and parts should be recycled or   
					disposed of using an environmentally acceptable   
					method and local regulations.   
					All motors (for masses see the motor   
					description plate) must be handled with a winch.   
					For masses above 25 kg (55 lb), manual   
					handling is forbidden.   
					If the product contains substances which are harmful   
					to the environment, these should be removed and   
					disposed of in accordance with current regulations.   
					This also includes the liquids and or gases in the   
					"seal system" or other utilities.   
					2.3 Lifting   
					2.3.1 Slinging of motor pumps units   
					Use handling means in accordance with motor   
					pump unit mass mentioned on the CE plate. For the   
					masses of the pumps bare end of shaft see table §   
					2.2.2 and nameplate.   
					Make sure that hazardous substances or toxic   
					fluids are disposed of safely and that the correct   
					personal protective equipment is used. The safety   
					specifications must be in accordance with the current   
					regulations at all times.   
					To avoid distortion, lift up motor   
					pump unit as shown:   
					3 PUMP DESCRIPTION   
					Motor pump unit   
					3.1 Description and restrictions of use   
					The multi-stage centrifugal pump is designed for the   
					pumping of cold water or all clear liquids which are   
					not solid and liquid mixtures, non-corrosive, non-   
					abrasive or non-explosive when in contact with the   
					pump motor unit and its working parts (Important: for   
					other liquids consult Flowserve for beforehand   
					advice).   
					The FM type is a centrifugal, multi-stage, close-   
					coupled pump with an axial inlet and a vertical axis   
					outlet.   
					The pump must be stored in a non explosive,   
					ventilated location, sheltered from bad weather, dust   
					and vibrations.   
					When handling always wear gloves, safety   
					boots and an industrial safety helmet.   
					For masses above 25 kg (55 lb), manual   
					handling is forbidden.   
					2.4 Storage   
					Store the pump in a clean, dry   
					location away from vibration. Leave piping   
					connection covers in place to keep dirt and other   
					foreign material out of pump casing. Turn pump at   
					intervals to prevent brinelling of the bearings and the   
					seal faces, if fitted, from sticking.   
					The reliability of the delivered machine can only be   
					ensured if it is used according to the conditions   
					given in this manual. The maximum values specified   
					in this manual must never be exceeded.   
					Do not store pumps starting on the fan guard.   
					The pump may be stored as above for up to 6   
					months. Consult Flowserve for preservative actions   
					when a longer storage period is needed.

					a) Levelling on the suction flange with a frame level   
					or on the discharge flange with a levelling   
					instrument.   
					b) Admissible defect 0.5 mm for 1 meter (0.02 in   
					for 3.3 ft).   
					c) Wedge under the pump.   
					4 INSTALLATION   
					Equipment operated in hazardous locations   
					must comply with the relevant explosion protection   
					regulations. See section 1.6.4, Products used in   
					potentially explosive atmospheres.   
					All equipment must be grounded.   
					Level   
					Frame   
					level   
					4.1 Location   
					The pump should be located to allow room for   
					access, ventilation, maintenance and inspection with   
					ample headroom for lifting and should be as close   
					as practicable to the supply of liquid to be pumped.   
					4.3 Piping   
					The user must verify that the equipment is   
					isolated from any external sources of vibration.   
					Protective covers are fitted to the   
					pipe connections to prevent foreign bodies entering   
					during transportation and installation. Ensure that   
					these covers are removed from the pump before   
					connecting any pipes.   
					4.3.1 Suction and discharge piping   
					The dimensions of the pipes do not directly depend   
					on suction and discharge diameters of the pump:   
					a) First, choose a flow speed < 2 m/s (7 ft/s) at   
					suction, and about 3 m/s (10 ft/s) at discharge.   
					b) Take into account the available NPSH, which   
					must be superior to the required NPSH of the   
					pump.   
					4.2 Foundation   
					There are many methods of installing   
					pump units to their foundations. The correct method   
					depends on the size of the pump unit, its location   
					and noise vibration limitations. Non-compliance with   
					the provision of correct foundation and installation   
					may lead to failure of the pump and as such would   
					be outside the terms of the warranty.   
					Anchor bolts must be appropriate for the foot bolt   
					holes. Use anchor bolts of accepted standards and   
					sufficient length so that they may be clamped safely   
					in the grout.   
					Never use pump as a support for   
					piping.   
					Do not mount expansion joints in   
					such a way that their force, due to internal pressure,   
					may act on the pump flange.   
					Maximum forces and moments allowed on the pump   
					flanges vary with the pump size and type. These   
					external strains may cause misalignment, heating of   
					the bearings, vibrations and the possible failure of   
					the pump casing.   
					When designing the pipework (§ 5.3.1, § 5.3.2, §   
					5.3.3) take necessary precautions in order not to   
					exceed maximum allowed strains.   
					NF E 27 811   
					Provide sufficient space in the foundation to   
					accommodate the anchor bolts. If necessary, provide   
					concrete gullets.   
					Forces and moments applied to the pump flanges   
					must never exceed the values shown in the following   
					table:

					The non-return valve will be set in the discharge   
					pipe to protect the pump from any excessive   
					pressure surge and from reverse rotation.   
					It is important to be aware of the EUROPEAN   
					DIRECTIVE on electromagnetic compatibility when   
					wiring up and installing equipment on site. Attention   
					must be paid to ensure that the techniques used during   
					wiring/installation do not increase electromagnetic   
					emissions or decrease the electromagnetic immunity of   
					the equipment, wiring or any connected devices. If in   
					doubt, contact Flowserve for advice.   
					If necessary, a control manometer (pressure gauge)   
					can be connected on the piping.   
					Before connecting the electric power supply, if the   
					device has been kept in a damp atmosphere, have   
					the insulation resistance of the electric motor   
					checked.   
					Control manometer   
					This resistance should have a value of not less than   
					5 000 ohms for each volt of the supply.   
					Carry out the ground connections according to the   
					current local regulations.   
					Setting of the control manometer   
					The motor must be protected. The protection must   
					therefore be ensured by a magneto thermal breaker   
					located between the section switch and the motor.   
					Do not tighten flanges before the final   
					check (see § 4.3.4).   
					This breaker can be connected to fuses.   
					Never connect the electric motor   
					before the setting has been completely finished.   
					Use a breaker sized and provisionally adjusted to   
					the current specified on the description plate.   
					4.3.4 Final checks   
					a) Check the tightening of anchor bolts. Tighten   
					It is recommended to provide the power supply of   
					the electric motor with a monitoring device allowing   
					the machine to be shut down safely.   
					them if necessary.   
					b) Check that protective covers on suction and   
					discharge flanges are removed.   
					c) Check that holes of piping flanges are parallel   
					and correspond to those of the pump.   
					d) Tighten suction and discharge flanges.   
					e) If it is planned, connect piping (hydraulic,   
					pneumatic, sealing system).   
					A device to provide emergency stopping shall be   
					fitted.   
					4.4.2 Electrical supply   
					Make sure that the voltage of the electrical supply   
					line is correct for that specified on the motor   
					description plate.   
					f) Control seal and the working of auxiliary piping.

					Make sure that the supply wires have sufficient load   
					capacity for the correct running of the installation.   
					4.4.1 Safety conditions about electrical   
					connections   
					4.4.3 Wiring Instructions   
					The motors are closed type IP 55 class E - 50 Hz   
					Electric connections must be carried   
					out by a qualified electrician, following the local rules   
					and regulations in force.   
					 
					 
					 230/ 400 V up to 3.7 kW - 50 H:   
					The motors can be directly supplied with 230 or

					Connection wiring diagram for three phase motors:   
					5 COMMISSIONING START-UP,   
					OPERATION AND SHUTDOWN   
					These operations must only be carried out   
					by qualified personnel.   
					5.1 Direction of rotation   
					Delta connection   
					Star connection   
					Starting or operating pumps with the   
					wrong direction of rotation can be harmful to the   
					pumps. Ensure that the pump rotation is the same   
					as the arrow on the pump casing.   
					Wire up the motor terminals according to the voltage   
					supply, in accordance with the description plate fixed   
					on the motor and with the connection wiring diagram   
					mentioned on the terminal box as opposite.   
					It is preferable to check the direction of rotation   
					before installing the coupling. If not, the pump must   
					be filled in with the liquid before start-up.   
					To avoid any risk of jamming, the   
					direction of rotation will be checked after priming of   
					the pump (§ 5.3.1, 5.3.2) and before the first start (§   
					5.4.2).   
					If maintenance work has been carried   
					out to the site's electricity supply, the direction of   
					rotation should be re-checked as above in case the   
					supply phasing has been altered.   
					4.5 Protection systems   
					The following protection systems are   
					recommended particularly if the pump is installed in   
					a potentially explosive area or is handling a   
					hazardous liquid. If in doubt consult Flowserve. If   
					there is any possibility of the system allowing the   
					pump to run against a closed valve or below   
					minimum continuous safe flow a protection device   
					should be installed to ensure the temperature of the   
					liquid does not rise to an unsafe level.   
					5.2 Guarding   
					Guarding is supplied fitted to the pump set.   
					If this has been removed or disturbed ensure that all   
					the protective guards around the pump coupling and   
					exposed parts of the shaft are securely fixed.   
					5.3 Priming and auxiliary supplies   
					If there are any circumstances in which the system   
					can allow the pump to run dry, or start up empty, a   
					power monitor should be fitted to stop the pump or   
					prevent it from being started. This is particularly   
					relevant if the pump is handling a flammable liquid.   
					Where there is any risk of the pump being run   
					against a closed valve generating high liquid and   
					casing external surface temperatures it is   
					recommended that users fit an external surface   
					temperature protection device.   
					If leakage of product from the pump or its associated   
					sealing system can cause a hazard it is   
					recommended that an appropriate leakage detection   
					system is installed.   
					Ensure all electrical, hydraulic,   
					pneumatic, sealant and lubrication systems (as   
					applicable) are connected and operational.   
					Ensure the inlet pipe and pump   
					casing are completely full of liquid before starting   
					continuous duty operation.   
					To prevent excessive surface temperatures at   
					bearings it is recommended that temperature or   
					vibration monitoring are carried out. See sections   
					5.5.4 and 5.5.5.   
					These operations must be carried out by personnel   
					with approved qualifications.   
					If a defect of cooling can lead to temperature higher   
					than those acceptable a system of cooling   
					surveillance must be installed.   
					5.3.1 Priming of a flooded pump   
					a) Close the discharge valve, fill the pump by   
					opening the suction valve. Let air escape by   
					removing the plug located on the piping.   
					b) The discharge pipe is headed and there is a by-   
					pass valve on the check valve, open slightly the   
					discharge valve and the by-pass of the check   
					valve.   
					Except when explicitly required by the customer in   
					the specifications, when a possibility of reverse   
					rotation exists the customer must install a reverse   
					rotation protection device.   
					The customer must install all equipment required to   
					avoid water hammer.   
					c) When the pump is totally free of air bubbles,   
					replace the plugs.

					5.4 Starting the pump   
					5.4.1 Bring controls and preparation before the   
					first starting and after each service call   
					Necessarily:   
					a) Check the tightening of the different plugs.   
					b) Check that the gland lightly tightens the packing   
					rings.   
					Air escape   
					c)   
					Risk of seal ring overheating.   
					d) Check the direction of rotation of the motor.   
					Refer to the rotation arrow of the pump.   
					e)   
					DO NOT FORGET TO REMOUNT THE   
					SHIELD GRID ON THE MOTOR STOOL   
					f) Open all inlet valves (if existing).   
					g) Close the outlet valve and the bypass valve.   
					h) Ensure inlet pipe and pump casing are   
					completely full of liquid.   
					Priming of a flooded pump   
					5.3.2 Priming of a sump suction pump   
					* With foot valve:   
					5.4.2 First pump start-up   
					a) Fill suction pipe and casing with liquid from an   
					independent source (pressure 1 to 2 bars or 15   
					to 30 psi).   
					b) Let air escape by removing the plugs located on   
					the piping.   
					Suction valves must be fully open   
					when pump is running. Never run the pump dry, it   
					will cause damage.   
					c) When the pump is totally free of air bubbles,   
					replace the plugs.   
					a) Start motor and check outlet pressure.   
					b) If pressure is satisfactory, slowly OPEN the   
					outlet valve.   
					Air escape   
					c) Do not run the pump with the outlet valve closed   
					for a period longer than 30 seconds.   
					d) If NO pressure, or LOW pressure, STOP the   
					pump. Refer to fault finding chart for fault   
					diagnosis.   
					External source   
					The pump should run smoothly and without   
					vibration.   
					The pump must never run at a capacity less than   
					10 % of the best efficiency point.   
					Never remove a plug when the pump is   
					running.   
					Priming of a sump suction configuration   
					with foot valve   
					5.5 Running the pump   
					5.5.1 Venting the pump   
					* Without foot valve:   
					Priming may be accomplished by means of venting   
					system.   
					Vent the pump to enable all trapped air to   
					escape taking due care with hot or hazardous   
					liquids.   
					Foot valves are not recommended when   
					the pumped liquid has suspended solid particles.   
					They may lodge between foot valve seat and   
					shutter.   
					Under normal operating conditions, after the pump   
					has been fully primed and vented, it should be   
					unnecessary to re-vent the pump.

					5.5.2 Pump fitted with a stuffing box   
					2445   
					4200   
					4213   
					If the pump has a packed gland there must be some   
					leakage from the gland. Gland nuts should initially   
					be finger-tight only. Leakage should take place soon   
					after the stuffing box is pressurized. If no leakage   
					takes place the packing will begin to overheat. If   
					overheating takes place the pump should be   
					stopped and allowed to cool before being re-started.   
					When the pump is re-started it should be checked to   
					ensure leakage is taking place at the packed gland.   
					When adjusting an operating stuffing box   
					(shield grids removed for this operation), the   
					operator must be very careful. Safety gloves are   
					compulsory and loose clothes are not allowed   
					(above all to the arms) to avoid being caught by the   
					pump shaft.   
					4610   
					4240   
					With a mechanical seal, the   
					maximum temperature is limited to 80 °C (176 °F)   
					whatever the internal construction of the pump is   
					(Cast iron or Bronze).   
					The pump should be run for ten minutes with steady   
					leakage and the gland nuts tightened by 10 degrees   
					at a time until leakage is reduced to an acceptable   
					level.   
					NEVER RUN A MECHANICAL SEAL   
					DRY, EVEN FOR A SHORT WHILE.   
					The temperature of the gland should be checked   
					after each round of tightening. If the temperature   
					starts to climb rapidly then back off the gland nuts   
					until the temperature drops down. Wait for the   
					temperature to stabilize before tightening again.   
					SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WHEN THE PUMP IS   
					RUNNING:   
					If hot or freezing components of the machine   
					can present a danger to operators, they must be   
					shielded to avoid accidental contact. If a 100 %   
					protection is not possible, the machine access must   
					be confined to the maintenance staff only.   
					The leakage must not be reduced below a rate of 20   
					drops per minute. Bedding in of the packing may   
					take several hours.   
					If the temperature is greater than 80 °C (176   
					°F), a warning plate must be clearly placed on the   
					pump.   
					It is strictly forbidden to open switch   
					cupboards, switch boxes, or all other live electric   
					equipment. If it is necessary to open them in order to   
					take readings, to carry out tests or adjustments for   
					example, only a skilled technician may do them with   
					adapted tools. Make sure that physical protections   
					against electrical risks are used.   
					5.5.4 Bearings   
					Shield grids being removed during installation   
					of the gland packing, it must be ensured that they   
					are replaced as soon as this operation is completed.   
					If the pumps are working in a potentially   
					explosive atmosphere, temperature or vibration   
					monitoring at the bearings is recommended. If   
					bearing temperatures are to be monitored it is   
					essential that a benchmark temperature is recorded   
					at the commissioning stage and after the bearing   
					temperature has stabilized.   
					5.5.3 Pump fitted with a mechanical seal   
					A mechanical seal ensures a seal without leakage   
					and does not need any adjustment. Nevertheless if a   
					light leakage occurs during start-up, it should   
					disappear after the initial running in of the friction   
					faces.   
					 
					Record the bearing temperature (t) and the   
					ambient temperature (ta)   
					 
					Estimate the likely maximum ambient   
					temperature (tb)

					Set the alarm at (t+tb-ta+5) C [(t+tb-ta+10) F]   
					and the trip at 100 C (212 F) for oil lubrication   
					and 105 C (220 F) for grease lubrication   
					5.6 Stopping and shutdown   
					According to hydraulic conditions of   
					the installation and its automation degree, stop and   
					restart procedures can have different forms.   
					Nevertheless all of them must respect imperatively   
					the following rules:   
					It is important, particularly with grease lubrication, to   
					keep a check on bearing temperatures. After start up   
					the temperature rise should be gradual, reaching a   
					maximum after approximately 1.5 to 2 hours. This   
					temperature rise should then remain constant or   
					marginally reduce with time.   
					5.6.1 Stopping < 1 hour   
					a) Isolate motor.   
					5.5.5 Normal vibration levels, alarm and trip   
					For guidance, pumps generally fall under a   
					classification for rigid support machines within the   
					International rotating machinery standards and the   
					recommended maximum levels below are based on   
					those standards.   
					b) Avoid reverse rotation of the pump.   
					c) Make sure that the discharge line pressure does   
					not reach the foot valve.   
					5.6.2 Stopping < 1 month   
					a) Isolate motor.   
					b) Avoid reverse rotation of the pump.   
					c) Make sure that the discharge line pressure does   
					not reach the foot valve.   
					d) Close the outlet valve. Eventually close the inlet   
					valve.   
					Alarm and trip values for installed   
					pumps should be based on the actual   
					measurements (N) taken on site on the bearing   
					housings of the pump in the fully commissioned as   
					new condition.   
					e) Switch off external power supply,   
					flushing/quench, cooling liquid.   
					The example (N) value is given for the preferred   
					operating flow region (typically this may extend to 70   
					to 120 % of the pump best efficiency point); outside   
					the preferred flow region the actual vibration   
					experienced may be multiplied by up to 2.   
					5.6.3 Shutdown > 1 month   
					a) Isolate motor.   
					b) Avoid reverse rotation of the pump.   
					c) Make sure that the discharge line pressure does   
					not reach the foot valve.   
					These standard values can vary with the rotational   
					speed and the power absorbed by the pump. For   
					any special case, do not hesitate to consult us.   
					d) Close the outlet valve. Eventually close the inlet   
					valve.   
					e) Switch off external power supply,   
					flushing/quench, cooling liquid.   
					f) Keep the pump fully filled with water. In case of   
					pumped liquid other than water, drain the pump   
					entirely.   
					Measuring vibration at regular intervals will then   
					show any deterioration in pump or system operating   
					conditions.   
					g) Turn once per week the pump shaft of one or   
					Vibration Velocity -   
					unfiltered   
					Horizontal Configuration   
					mm/s (in./s) r.m.s.   
					two turns.

					Shutdown Trip N x 2.0   
					When ambient temperatures are   
					likely to drop below freezing point, the pump and any   
					cooling and flushing arrangements must be drained   
					or otherwise protected.   
					5.5.6 Stop/start frequency   
					Pump sets are normally suitable for the number of   
					equally spaced stop/starts per hour shown in the table   
					below. Check actual capability of the driver and   
					control/starting system before commissioning.   
					5.6.4 Restarting in continuous running   
					a) Ensure that the pump is completely full of liquid.   
					b) Ensure a continuous supply with a sufficient   
					available NPSH.

					FM USER INSTRUCTIONS ENGLISH 71576526 - 03/07   
					If in doubt please consult your nearest Flowserve   
					office for advice and details of the minimum   
					allowable margin for your application.   
					5.7 Hydraulic, mechanical and electrical   
					duty   
					This product has been supplied to meet the   
					performance specifications of your purchase order,   
					however it is understood that during the life of the   
					product these may change. The following notes may   
					help the user decide how to evaluate the   
					implications of any change. If in doubt contact your   
					nearest Flowserve office.   
					5.7.5 Pumped flow   
					Flow must not fall outside the minimum and   
					maximum continuous safe flow shown on the pump   
					performance curve and or data sheet.   
					5.8 Pumps for Food Use or Potable   
					Water   
					5.7.1 Specific gravity (SG)   
					Pump capacity and total head in meters (feet) do not   
					change with SG, however pressure displayed on a   
					pressure gauge is directly proportional to SG. Power   
					absorbed is also directly proportional to SG. It is   
					therefore important to check that any change in SG   
					will not overload the pump driver or over-pressurize   
					the pump.   
					If the pump has not been specifically ordered for a food   
					or drinking water application it must not be used for   
					these types of applications. If it has been ordered for   
					this type of application the following recommendations   
					are to be followed.   
					5.8.1 Cleaning prior to operation   
					Pumps that are to be used for a food or drinking water   
					application should be cleaned before being put into   
					initial operation and after the installation of spare parts   
					that are in contact with the liquid.   
					5.7.2 Viscosity   
					For a given flow rate the total head reduces with   
					increased viscosity and increases with reduced   
					viscosity. Also for a given flow rate the power   
					absorbed increases with increased viscosity, and   
					reduces with reduced viscosity. It is important that   
					checks are made with your nearest Flowserve office   
					if changes in viscosity are planned.   
					Cleaning once the pump has been commissioned will   
					depend on the application and operating conditions.   
					The user must ensure that the cleaning procedures are   
					suitable for the application and operating conditions,   
					and local regulations.   
					5.7.3 Pump speed   
					Changing pump speed effects flow, total head,   
					power absorbed, NPSHR, noise and vibration. Flow   
					varies in direct proportion to pump speed, head   
					varies as speed ratio squared and power varies as   
					speed ratio cubed. The new duty, however, will also   
					be dependent on the system curve. If increasing the   
					speed, it is important therefore to ensure the   
					maximum pump working pressure is not exceeded,   
					the driver is not overloaded, NPSHA > NPSHR, and   
					that noise and vibration are within local requirements   
					and regulations.   
					6 MAINTENANCE   
					6.1 General   
					If a belt drive is used, the assembly and   
					tension of the belts must be verified during regular   
					maintenance procedure.   
					In dirty or dusty environments, regular checks   
					must be made and dirt removed from areas around   
					close clearances, bearing housings and motors.   
					5.7.4 Net positive suction head (NPSHA)   
					NPSH available (NPSHA) is the head available at the   
					impeller inlet, above the vapor pressure of the   
					pumped liquid.   
					It is the plant operator's responsibility to   
					ensure that all maintenance, inspection and   
					assembly work is carried out by authorized and   
					qualified personnel who have adequately   
					familiarized themselves with the subject matter by   
					studying this manual in detail (see also section   
					1.6.2).   
					NPSH required (NPSHR) is the minimum head required   
					at the impeller inlet, above the vapor pressure of the   
					pumped liquid, to avoid excessive cavitation and   
					extreme performance degradation.   
					Any work on the machine must be performed when it   
					is at a standstill. It is imperative that the procedure   
					for shutting down the machine is followed, as   
					described in section 5.6.   
					It is important that NPSHA > NPSHR. The margin   
					between NPSHA > NPSHR should be as large as   
					possible.   
					On completion of work all guards and safety devices   
					must be re-installed and made operative again.   
					If any change in NPSHA is proposed, ensure these   
					margins are not significantly eroded. Refer to the

					FM USER INSTRUCTIONS ENGLISH 71576526 - 03/07   
					Before restarting the machine, the relevant   
					instructions listed in section 5, Commissioning, start   
					up, operation and shut down must be observed.   
					d) Verify the condition of the gaskets   
					e) Gland packing must be adjusted correctly to give   
					visible leakage and concentric alignment of the   
					gland follower to prevent excessive temperature   
					of the packing or follower. Mechanical seals   
					should present no leakage.   
					f) Check for any leaks from gaskets and seals.   
					The correct functioning of the shaft seal must be   
					checked regularly.   
					Oil and grease leaks may make the ground   
					slippery. Machine maintenance must always   
					begin and finish by cleaning the ground and the   
					exterior of the machine.   
					If platforms, stairs and guardrails are required for   
					maintenance, they must be placed for easy access   
					to areas where maintenance and inspection are to   
					be carried out. The positioning of these accessories   
					must not limit access or hinder the lifting of the part   
					to be serviced.   
					g) Check bearing lubricant level, and if the hours   
					run show a lubricant change is required.   
					h) Check that the duty condition is in the safe   
					operating range for the pump.   
					i) Check vibration, noise level and surface   
					temperature at the bearings to confirm   
					satisfactory operation.   
					When air or compressed inert gas are used to clean   
					the machines, the operator and those people in the   
					vicinity must be careful and have appropriate gas-   
					protection, wearing at least eye protectors.   
					j) Check the tightness of the connections,.   
					k) Check dirt and dust is removed from areas   
					around close clearances, bearing housings and   
					motors.   
					l) Check coupling alignment and re-align if   
					Do not spray air or compressed inert gas on skin.   
					Do not direct an air or gas jet towards other people.   
					necessary.   
					m) Verify the correct operation of the system.   
					The equipment used for maintenance and   
					disassembly in an ATEX zone must be in conformity   
					with the requirements zone.   
					Never use air or compressed inert gas to clean   
					clothes.   
					Before working on the pump, take measures to   
					prevent an uncontrolled start. Put a warning board   
					on the starting device with the words:   
					Our specialist service personnel can help with   
					preventative maintenance records and provide   
					condition monitoring for temperature and vibration to   
					identify the onset of potential problems.   
					"Machine under repair: do not start".   
					With electric drive equipment, lock the main switch   
					open and withdraw any fuses. Put a warning board   
					on the fuse box or main switch with the words:   
					"Machine under repair: do not connect".   
					If any problems are found the following sequence of   
					actions should take place:   
					a) Refer to section 7, Faults; causes and remedies,   
					for fault diagnosis.   
					b) Ensure equipment complies with the   
					recommendations in this manual.   
					Never clean pieces with inflammable solvents or   
					carbon tetrachloride.   
					c) Contact Flowserve if the problem persists.   
					Protect yourself against toxic fumes when cleaning   
					pieces with cleaning agents.

					6.2.5 Gland packing   
					6.2.2 Routine inspection (daily/weekly)   
					6.2.5.1 Pump fitted with a packed gland   
					A well run in and correctly adjusted packing gland   
					requires little maintenance   
					If, after some time, the leakage becomes too great,   
					the gland should be tightened again in order to   
					return these to a normal level.   
					The following checks should be made   
					and the appropriate action taken to remedy any   
					deviations:   
					a) Check the behavior of the pump while running:   
					noise level, vibrations, bearings temperature,   
					flow rate and pressure.   
					b) Pump fitted with a stuffing box: leakage of 20   
					drops per minute.   
					If re-tightening is not possible, new packing must be   
					installed.   
					c) Pump fitted with a mechanical seal: no leakage.   
					d) Check the level and condition of oil lubricant. On   
					grease lubricated pumps, check running hours   
					since last recharge of grease or complete   
					grease change.   
					6.2.5.2 Gland packing inspection and removal   
					a) Remove the shield guards   
					b) Slide back the gland   
					c) Remove the packing rings with an extractor   
					designed for this purpose (including the lantern   
					ring if it exists; note its position and its direction   
					of rotation).   
					d) Inspect the state of the sleeve surface; the   
					presence of many marked grooves will indicate   
					that it must be replaced.   
					6.2.3 Periodic inspection (6 monthly)   
					Check pump running records for hourly usage to   
					determine if bearing lubricant requires changing.   
					If a check shows a bad running of the   
					motor pump unit, the user must:   
					e) Carefully clean the different pieces of the   
					packing gland.   
					a) Refer to the "fault finding chart" chapter 7 of this   
					leaflet to apply the recommended solutions.   
					b) Ensure that your equipment corresponds to the   
					arrangements of this leaflet   
					c) Contact Flowserve after-sales Department if the   
					problem persists.   
					6.2.5.3 Gland packing fitting   
					If the packing is supplied as cord the packing must   
					be cut so that the external diameter is lightly   
					tightened and there is an initial gap between the   
					sleeve and the packing ring.   
					6.2.4 Mechanical seals   
					For that purpose, wind the packing helically around   
					the shaft sleeve or a chuck of the same diameter.   
					(Take precautions to avoid damaging sleeve).   
					The current maintenance is limited to seal control. It   
					is necessary to detect any small leakage which   
					announces the beginning of the deterioration of   
					friction faces or secondary seal elements (rings,   
					bellows, synthetic membranes). It is advisable to   
					stop the pump as soon as possible. Have an   
					approved seal vendor replace or repair the seal.   
					Example of straight cut   
					Example of bevel cut   
					2445   
					4200   
					4213   
					Ensure a tightening on the stuffing   
					box housing and not on the sleeve.   
					SETTING OF PACKING   
					Follow the instructions:   
					a) Assembly of the packing in S.   
					b) Staggering by about 90° between two pickings.   
					c) Assemble packing after packing.

					FM USER INSTRUCTIONS ENGLISH 71576526 - 03/07   
					After setting the last packing, fix the gland on the   
					packing and screw up the nut by hand.   
					The pump size and serial number are shown on the   
					pump nameplate.   
					After this screwing phase, the shaft should turn by   
					hand as easily as before the setting of the packing.   
					To ensure continued satisfactory operation,   
					replacement parts to the original design specification   
					should be obtained from Flowserve.   
					Any change to the original design specification   
					(modification or use of a non-standard part) will   
					invalidate the pumps safety certification.   
					6.3.2 Storage of spares   
					Spares should be stored in a clean dry area away   
					from vibration. Inspection and re-treatment of   
					metallic surfaces (if necessary) with preservative is   
					recommended at 6 monthly intervals.   
					6.4 Recommended spares   
					[1410], [2250], [4610], [4130]

					6.5 Disassembly   
					6.2.6 Internal coating   
					Refer to section 1.6, Safety, and section 6   
					If the pump has an internal coating, this coating   
					must be inspected periodically. Any wear or cracks   
					of the coating found must be immediately repaired.   
					Failure to do this may lead to accelerated wear of   
					the coating during operation and corrosion of the   
					exposed base metal, depending on the material and   
					pumped liquid. Special attention must be paid to the   
					coating edges. Any loss of coating material is   
					considered to be normal wear and tear on the pump   
					and is not considered as warranty. Flowserve has   
					applied the coatings according to the supplier's   
					instructions but will not be held responsible for   
					coating wear or cracks that may develop over time.   
					Maintenance, before dismantling the pump.   
					Before dismantling the pump for   
					overhaul, ensure genuine Flowserve replacement   
					parts are available. Refer to sectional drawings for   
					part numbers and identification.
