3.0 Planning of the installation
3.1 Pipework
CAUTION
• Suction branch axial, discharge branch radially
upwards.
• The diameters of the piping are not determined
by those of the pump delivery and suction
branches. On short delivery pipe resistance
constitutes but a small portion of the delivery
head. For long pipe runs the most economic
pipe diameter must be assessed in each
particular case.
• Make sure that the flange gaskets do not
protrude into the bore.
• Make sure that the piping is cleaned before
installing the pump.
• Support the piping in such a way that it is free
of stress (danger of breach of pump parts).
Once the flange bolts have been loosened, the
flanges must not yield more than the amount
corresponding to the gasket thickness, nor
must they be cut of parallel nor bear against
each other under stress.
• Avoid abrupt changes of the pipe cross-
sections and changes of direction.
• Connect different nominal diameters with an
eccentrically taper piece. Thus, the formation
of air pockets in the piping will be avoided.
• Unfavourable installed pipe runs, especially on
the suction side (i. e. bends in various planes
immediately before the suction branch) can
affect the performance of the pump.
• The flow velocity in the piping not be less than
1 m/sec because otherwise there is the danger
of sedimentation.
3.1.1 Suction or feed line
Feed line. To prevent collection of air or gas the
feed line must be horizontal or show a gradual
slope towards the pump
Suction line. Since the pump is not of the self
priming type and a foot valve cannot be used in
the case of contaminated liquid, can be started
only after prior evacuation (evacuating unit). The
suction line must be horizontal or rise
continuously all the way to the pump.
Feed operation suction operation
When handling a fluid containing gas, a suction
head of at least 0,5 m. should be available to the
pump, since the under pressure at the entry of the
impeller would otherwise cause a separation of
gas and a loss prime.
The bore of the feed or suction pipe should be set
as deeply as possible below the suction side liquid
level. In case the bore should face downwards it
must, however, be so far away from the bottom
that the inlet losses will not become too great,
thus reducing the delivery performance.
When delivery sludge, we recommend to lay the
suction line horizontal, preferably immediately at
the bottom of the suction side collecting tank
(figure 1ª). The suction line should be as short as
possible.

(Sterling Fluid Systems BV) 2003
The isolating valves in the suction or feed line
must remain fully open during operation. NEVER
use this valves for regulating. If possible, isolating
valves in the suction line should be mounted with
the spindle in horizontal position to avoid air
pockets forming in the spindle cap. To avoid
ingress of air, it is advisable to use isolating
valves with sealing water connection or with water
seal.
3.1.2 Delivery line
Install a gate valve in the delivery line close to the
pump branch. It is recommended to install a non-
return valve between pump branch and regulating
valve, thus protecting the pump against reverse
rotation and water hammer which may occur in
the piping in case of sudden shut-down of the
pump.
3.1.3 Inlet and outlet connections
(see also arrangement drawing)
The various connecting points are shown in
Chapter 10.
3.1.3.1 Sealing liquid connection Xa,b
(a = inlet, b = outlet)
At Xa a sealing liquid line is normally connected
up. The pressure of the connected clear liquid
should be about 1 bar higher than the maximum
operating pressure of the pump (pump delivery
branch, pressure gauge connection I). The sealing
water prevents abrasive particles contained in the
delivery liquid from entering the stuffing box, thus
avoiding premature wear of the shaft sleeves
under the stuffing box packing. When delivering
raw sewage or storm water, an automatic grease
gun may olso be provided for sealing purposes.
When delivery biologics sludge or liquids without
abrasive additions under suction head conditions,
no sealing is required. Whilst sealing by a clean
liquid is necessary when handling raw sludge,
putrid sludge or pasteurised sludge and liquids
with abrasive additions, as well as, in the case of
operation under suction lift conditions.
The pipe running to this connection Xa should
incorporate a pressure reducing valve, if the
pressure in the mains line is far above the
required one. In order to keep the sealing water
consumption as low as possible, we recommend
to install a magnetic valve which will be opened
during pump operation only.
3.1.3.2 Flushing liquid connectionXXIIIa
For special applications of delivery liquids with a
very high content of solids or tendency towards
crystallisation this connection can be additionally
drilled. Besides, the lantern ring will then be
situated at the bottom of the stuffing box chamber.
The flushing liquid is taken directly to the shaft
sleeve before the packing, thus preventing the
entry of solids between stuffing box packing and
shaft sleeve.

3.1.3.3 Flushing liquid connectionXXIIIb
Here the suction side clearance gap between
wear plate and impeller can be flushed, if required
– especially when pumping strongly contaminated
delivery fluids.
3.1.3.4 Leakage water connections IX
The leakage line must be sized amply enough forthe liquid to flow off freely. It should be designedso that it can be cleaned easily.

Vent III
Drain VII
Please, see connection dimensions drawing.
3.2 Electrical connections

4. Unpacking, storage, handling
4.1 General advises
• Do not lift heavy equipment overhead of
personnel.
• A safe distance must be kept when lifting and
moving the equipment.
• Use only approved and suitable lifting equip-
ment.
• The length of the lifting equipment should be
such that the pump or the set are lifted in hori-
zontal position.
• Do not attempt to lift the pump or the pump set
using eyebolts on pump components.
• Do not remove protection covers from the
pump branches, as they prevent contamination
of the pump.
4.2 Unpacking
Do not unpack the pump until it has been carefully
checked for damage that may have occurred in
transit. Report any damage on the counterfoil or
delivery note.
Claims must be made immediately on the carrier
or the transport insurance.
4.3 Intermediate storage
If the pump or the pump set is not to be installed
immediately it should be stored in a dry and vibra-
tion-free room.
The packing should be checked for damage on a
monthly basis.

5. Installing the pump
5.1 General advises
• The foundation of the pump must be level and
have a minimum of vibration. It is recom-
mended to use a baseplate.
• Concerning the pipework, the pump must not
be considered as a fixpoint.
• Care should be taken that the pipework forces
and moments acting on the pump branches do
not exceed the permissible pump branch loads
acc. to ISO 5199 (see chapter 9).
• The pump must be properly aligned
• The pipework must be properly installed.
• Incorrect pump installation or alignment will
lead to an overload on the machine which
could be hazardous to personnel and
environment if the pump is operated in a
potentially explosive atmosphere.
• Leakage due to improper pipe or supply line
connections may lead to the formation of
explosive mixtures and be hazardous to the
personnel and the environment if the pump is
operated in a potentially explosive atmosphere.
• The coupling must be installed, started-up and
operated in accordance with the operating
instructions of the coupling manufacturer.
Misalignment of the coupling may result in
inadmissible temperatures at the coupling and
pump and motor bearings. It has to be
ensured, that the half couplings are correctly
aligned at all times.
5.2 Prerequisites
Only appropriately trained staff must undertake
the work described in this chapter.
5.2.1 Fitting tools
Standard tools and lifting equipment are used.
These should be available at the customer's end.
5.2.2 Permissible environment
The ambient temperature range should be from
-20 °C to +60 °C (for restrictions see also chapter
2).
The atmospheric humidity should be low in order
to avoid corrosion.
5.2.3 Space utilisation
The space required by the pump or the pump set
can be seen from the attached table of dimen-
sions or the arrangement drawing.
Clear and easy access to the shut-off and regu-
lating valves and the measuring instruments must
be ensured.
5.2.4 Installation position
DBS pumps are installed in horizontal position.

(Sterling Fluid Systems BV) 2003
5.2.5 Preparatory checks
The following checks should be made prior to
installation:
− ease of running (check that the shaft is free to
rotate by hand)
− direction of rotation of the motor
− shut-off valve in the suction or feed line and
regulating valve in the discharge line must be
closed
− power to the equipment must be disconnected
5.2.6 Alignment of the pump set
After aligning the set the axial clearance between
the two coupling halves measured at one point of
the coupling must be the same over the complete
circumference of the coupling, the permissible
tolerance being ± 0.05 mm.
Carry out the radial alignment of the coupling
using a bevelled straight edge and a feeler gauge.
Aligning the coupling clearance
The indications given before are general rules.
Always the operation instruction of the coupling
manufacturer must be considered.
5.2.7 Pumps with V – belt drive
Please, follow the instructions of the V – belt
manufacturer.
5.3 Foundation
5.3.1 Placing the pump set Prior to placing the pump set on the foundationwhich should be well set, the following preparatorywork must be carried out:
− check the dimensions of the foundation
− roughen and clean foundation surface
− remove shuttering/cores from the anchor holes
− blow the anchor holes clean
− check the positions and dimensions of the
anchor holes against the arrangement drawing
The complete set mounted on the baseplate must
be placed on the foundation with its foundation
bolts suspended.
− Place shims under the baseplate on both sides
of the foundation bolts, 10 mm from the base-
plate edge
− Use a spirit level to align the set
− If necessary, place shims between the founda-
tion bolts to prevent the baseplate from sag-
ging. Care should be taken to minimise distor-
tion of the baseplate during installation
− The foundation bolts should be embedded in
concrete using quick-setting grout
− Tighten the nuts of the foundation bolts cross-
wise (when the grout is set)
− Re-check the alignment with a spirit level
• Care should be taken at every check that the
axial play of the pump rotor is taken into con-
sideration.
• Avoid distortions when finally tightening the
bolts.

5.3.2 Grouting the baseplate
Prior to grouting the baseplate, carry out the fol-
lowing preparatory work:
− Check the dimensions with regard to height
and adjustment of flanges
− Re-adjust baseplate, if necessary
Ram earth-humid concrete under the baseplate or
add shrinkage-free grout until the entire space
under the baseplate is filled. Grouting should be a
continuous process so as to ensure that no air
pockets are left.
When the grout is set re-tighten the foundation
bolts and re-check the alignment of the coupling.
5.4 Pump installation in the piping
system
− Remove the protection covers from the pump
flanges and the auxiliary pipeline connections
− Correctly insert the flange seals
− Connect the suction or feed line
− Connect the discharge line
5.5 Hydrostatic test
• For the hydrostatic test of pressure containing
pump parts (casing, casing cover), a maximum
pressure of 1.5 x nominal pump pressure
should be applied.
• If the piping system is to undergo a hydrostatic
test, the pump must be excluded from such
testing.
5.6 Cleaning, flushing and pickling ofthe pipework
When the pipework is cleaned, flushed or pickled,
the pump should be excluded.

6. Start-up and shut-down operations
6.1 General advises
�� Observe the pump operating limits documented by Sterling Fluid Systems (if there is any doubt, please contact Sterling Fluid Systems).
�� Safety measures should be taken at the customer's end to ensure (for example by means of a relief valve) that the permissible pump casing pressure is not exceeded during operation.
�� If the liquid handled is hot, the pump must be filled slowly so as to avoid distortions or heat shocks.
�� The flowrate must be changed at constant speed only on the discharge side. During operation the shut-off valve in the suction or feed line should always be kept open, in order not to run the risk of cavitation.
�� Do not run the pump with the regulating valve closed for any length of time, if there is no bypass line (for restrictions, see also annex).
�� The operator is to ensure the permissible
maximum temperature of the liquid handled as a function of the temperature class is not exceeded. Specific limitations or restrictions resulting from pump design or mode of operation must be taken into consideration (see annex). Otherwise temperatures in excess of the temperature of the pumped liquid may occur on the pump casing which could be hazardous to personnel and environment if the pump is operated in a potentially explosive atmosphere.
�� The operator is to ensure that a dry operation of the shaft seal is prevented. For pumps equipped with packing, the gland be tightened until there is a slight leakage and are only allowed to be operated when primed. Pumps with a single-acting mechanical seal are only allowed to be operated when primed. For pumps equipped with double-acting mechanical seal, also the seal chamber must be flushed or sealed.
�� If the operator cannot warrant this condition, appropriate monitoring devices must be used. Improper installation (e.g. vertical installation) may impair the self-venting properties of the seal chamber, so that gas bubbles may be collected in the pump and cause the mechanical seal to run dry.
�� High negative pressure on the suction side (e.g. due to clogged suction-side strainers or low system pressure) may result in air intake at the shaft seal forming gas bubbles in the pump. This may also cause the mechanical seal to run dry. Suitable monitoring facilities shall be installed, if necessary.
�� The direction of rotation of the motor is only allowed to be checked with the pump primed (for pumps with packing and single-acting mechanical seal) and, also, with flushed or sealed seal chamber.
6.2 Electrical connections The motor has to be connected according to the scheme in the terminal box. 6.3 Control before first start-up Check the following points before start-up: 1. Are all the pipes connected and the
connections tight? 2. Are pumps and pipework orderly filled?

3. Is the control valve in the discharge line closed?
4. Is the isolation valve in the suction or feed line entirely open?
5. Is the motor ready for operation? 6. Is the direction of rotation of the motor
correct? (Check by short start of the motor) 7. Has the coupling been aligned properly?
(see 5.2.6 ) 8. If there is a shaft sealing supply line, is it
entirely open? 9. Is the bearing housing correctly filled with
oil? (see 7.4.1) 6.4 Start-up For the start-up, proceed as follows: 1. Entirely open the isolating valve in the
suction or feed line. 2. If existing, entirely open the valves of the
shaft sealing supply line. 3. Close the discharge valve. 4. Start motor. 5. Check the manometer at the pressure
gauges. If the pressure does not build up continually with increasing number of revolutions, turn off motor and de-aerate the pump once more
6. Once the pump has reached the operating, revolution regulates the point of operation by using the discharge control valve (admissible operating conditions see data sheet, annex).
Avoid the maximum casing pressure to be exceeded due to system failure by means of safety measures on the installation side (e.g. overflow valve). An alteration of the service duty, which might necessary may be effected by throttling with the gate valve in the delivery line, to the extent warrantable taking into account the risk of clogging due to the nature of the liquid.
On pumps, which are driven via V – belts the speed and thus the performance can be changed by altering the transmission ratio. The coupling alignment should be re-checked when the pump has reached the operation temperature. If necessary, pump or driver has to be re-aligned. 6.5 Operation 6.5.1 Switching frequency For a start with the regulating valve closed or slightly opened and for uniform start-stop intervals, the following numbers of switching actuations apply:
P kW max switching frequency equally spaced per hour
< 12 12 < P <100
>100
8 8 5
6.5.2 Alignment The alignment of the set should be re-checked at operating temperature (see 5.2.6). Re-align the set, if necessary. 6.6 Special notes Observe the following points during operation: �� Control revolutions and head of the pump. �� Ensure that the pump runs smoothly without
vibrating. �� Control liquid level in the suction or feed tank. �� Control the bearing temperature (maximum
temp. 80°C) �� During the run-in period a slight leakage may
occur. �� Should the temperature of the mechanical seal
rise during run-in shut down pump to allow the seal to cool down.

�� If the pump is equipped with an external flush or quench, the supply line has to be opened before the pump is started up.
�� After shutdown of the pump, allow the mechanical seal to cool down before the shaft seal supply lines or the intensive cooling are closed.
�� In general, a slight leakage of several cm³/h escapes from the mechanical seal as vapour or fog. Besides that, few drops may leak from the mechanical seal as well.
Should the initial leakage rate of the mechanical seal not reduce considerably after a run-in period of approx. 5 minutes, shut down the pump as soon as possible and check the seal. 6.7 Shut-down If there is no no-return valve flap, close the regulation valve in delivery line. Do not switch off driver until then. Close isolating valve in the feed line only if necessary. (Removal of pump) Shut off external sealing. If a vacuum gauge without relief valve is attached to the suction branch of the pump, then it must be isolated before stopping the pump set. If there is danger of the pump freezing up, the pump must be drained. 6.8 Re–starting Before re–starting the set, take care that the pump shaft is at rest and does not rotate backwards. Starting with the shaft rotating in opposite direction may lead to shaft damage.
If e.g. explosive, toxic, hot or crystalline liquids are pumped, you have to make sure that no danger arises to persons or the environment. Even if the pump is completely turned around residues of liquid, remain. If the pump has to be sent back, make sure it is free of any dangerous agents. For a longer standstill, the pump has to be conserved.

7. Maintenance, dismantling, assembly
7.1 General advises
�� Flush the pump thoroughly before disassembly to purge away the residual liquid left after draining the pump.
�� Ensure that people and the environment are not put at risk through explosive, toxic, hot, crystalline, or acid liquids handled.
�� The workplace for disassembly or assembly must be clean.
�� Ensure trouble-free bearing performance, for example by regular inspection of bearing tem-perature or vibration behaviour. The bearing temperature must not exceed 80°C, if oil-lubricated. Bearing operation must be free from vibrations. Heat exchange between the bearing housing and the environment must not be impaired, insulation is not permissible.
�� Inspect the mechanical seal leakage at regular intervals, e.g. by visual inspection. An amount of a few cm³ per hour in the form of vapour, mist or drops is permissible.
�� Assembly and disassembly of this pump must
only be performed by authorised and qualified personnel who have adequately familiarised themselves with the subject matter by studying this manual in detail. Otherwise the pump could be damaged and people and the environment can be put on risk if the pump is operated in a potentially explosive atmosphere.
�� Anti-friction bearings which are old or improperly lubricated may cause the machine temperature to increase and be hazardous to
personnel and environment if the pump is operated in a potentially explosive atmosphere.
�� Leakage from a pump equipped with a single-acting mechanical seal may lead to the forma-tion of explosive mixtures and be hazardous to personnel and environment if the pump is ope-rated in a potentially explosive atmosphere.
�� Only a pump set, which is properly operated and maintained in perfect technical condition, will give safe and reliable operation. This also applies to the reliable function of the rolling element bearings whose actual lifetime largely depends on the operating mode and operating conditions.
�� Regular checks of the lubricant and the running noises will prevent the risk of excessive temperatures as a result of bearings running hot or defective bearing seals.
�� Any auxiliary systems installed must be monitored, if necessary, to make sure they function correctly.
�� Static sealing elements shall be regularly checked for leakage.
�� The coupling guard and any other guards of fast rotating components must be regularly checked for deformation and sufficient distance from rotating elements.
�� Regularly verify the correct position and the status of plastic components exposed to the atmosphere.
�� It is strongly recommended to draw up a maintenance schedule, which includes the above-mentioned points.
7.2 Maintenance and inspection 7.2.1 Oil lubricated bearings The pump is supplied by the manufacturer without oilfilling. Before the first start up, fill in oil into the oil inlet hole until the oil level reaches the mark in the middle of the oil level sight glass.

Oil change intervals New bearings need renewal of the oil after about 200 operating hours and then annually, if the bearing temperature is constantly less then 50°C and there’s no soiling. If the bearing is used at a temperature up to 80°C and/or if the bearing might get soiled it requires a renewal of the oil every six month.

Re-greasing is effected by means of grease gun through the two grease nipples XX. In order to avoid the entry of impurities into the bearings together with the grease, take care that the grease container, greasing device and nipple are clean and that the lubricant does not become contaminated during the transfer procedure. For the individual pump speeds, the different re-greasing intervals have to be observed: Pump speed: r.p.m 1.500 1.800 3.000 Greasing intervals: hours 2.500 2.000 1.500 After approximately 10,000 operating hours, however, after two years at the latest, the rolling contact bearings should be removed, cleaned and replaced with a fresh grease filling (see “Grease properties”). In the case of extremely unfavourable operating conditions (dirty and wet operation, high ambient temperature) the re-greasing must be effected at considerably shorter intervals. During prolonged standstill periods, the

recommendations given by the respective lubricant manufacturers must be observed. Grease rated/grease types When installing the rolling contact bearings with a fresh grease charge, the spaces of the bearings should always be entirely filled with grease, however, then housing space on both sides should only be filled up to one third. If the bearings are overgreased (too much grease in the bearings) there is the danger of their running hot. Use only high-quality lithium soap grease, which is resin- and acid- free and has a rust inhibiting effect. Grease properties: Consistency nº. 2 (Work penetration 265-295) Usable temperature range up to 120ºC Dropping point � 170ºC 7.2.3 Mechanical seal The mechanical seal shows no or little visible leakage. Should the leakage become more intense the mechanical seal has to be checked. Normally the mechanical seal is a single-acting, carbide metal/carbide metal. For it a special casing cover is required which is not identical with the one used for the packed stuffing box. Normally for this mechanical seal, no flushing is required. When flushing is required for particular applications drilled of the flushing liquid connection XXIIIc has to be effected. 7.2.4 Packing The pumps are supplied by us with the packing installed. If, after prolonged operating time, the inserted packing material is worn it must be completely removed, as, other wise, the running surface
sleeve is damaged and this must be replaced too. If no pre-shaped packing rings are available cut packing material to suitable length, e.g. with a gauging plug of the same diameter as the shaft sleeve. A gap of 1 mm between the joints after fitting will, in any case, prove less detrimental than squeezing too long pieces together. Pre-shaped packing must be bent up sidewise and slipped over the shaft sleeve (fig.: 4)
Joint
Correct Incorrect Packing ring: L = mean diameter � �
Fig.: 4 After a certain running-in period, the gland should be tightened evenly until there is only slight leakage from the stuffing box. 7.2.5 Driver Carry out maintenance of the driver, according to the instructions of the manufacturer. 7.3 Disassembly 7.3.1 General If the pump has been maintained and services carefully, breakdowns which necessitate the pump being dismantled should not occur (see section 7 “maintenance”). If, however, faults occur, then before deciding to dismantle the pump the plant should be checked for possible sources of trouble (see section 8 “Breakdown – Cause – Remedy”). If technical personnel are not available, we recommend that you request the service of an erection engineer or prevision of special dismantling instructions or despatch of the pump to our works for checking.

If the pump is being stripped by yourselves, all parts must be handled with greatest care, avoiding blows and shocks. All parts must be carefully cleaned, tested with new parts. After assembly, the rotor must turn easily by hand. Otherwise the bearings, coupling, shaft seal and wear tings opposite the impeller may be damaged prematurely. Inspections of all components, especially of the new ones, to make sure that they do not present sharp edges or burrs and have completely clean surfaces. Make certain that the threads are not damaged. All grease nipples and plugs must be hermetically sealed with a Teflon tape. Prior to erection all flat gaskets should also be provided with grease. Check of the clearance on semi-open impellers On the semi-open impellers the hydraulic efficiency is influenced amongst others by the axial clearance between impeller and wear plate. Check and correct the setting of the axial clearance as show on fig. 5

7.3.2 Spare parts The position numbers necessary for ordering spare parts is mentioned in the parts list (see annex). It is important to indicate the serial number that can be found on the type plate of the pump as well. 7.4 Special hints In order to facilitate the fitting of the rolling contact bearings on the shaft, these will be warmed up before on a heating plate. During this procedure the bearings should, however, not be warned up above 100ºC because at temperature of 130ºC they may already be affected. After fitting the bearings on the shaft, they and the grease chambers in the bearing housing have to be filled with grease according to 7.2.2. Once the lubricant, this amount of grease will be enough until the next re-engreasing is due (see 7.2.2). When fitting the bearings in the hosing take care that they will have cooled down; we recommend prior warming up of the housing. When removing the rolling contact bearings from the housing or from the shaft we recommend using a pull-off device or a pressing device because otherwise by driving them out with a hammer the rolling contact bearings may be damaged. 7.5 After dismantling Wash out with detergent all lubricants from the bearings, bearing housing; thereafter dry thoroughly by hand or with clean compressed air. Replace bearings that show signs of material deterioration on their running surfaces. Apply rust inhibiting oil to the bearings and wrap them in paper for protection.

Max. permissible temperature of pumping liquid The highest temperatures usually occur on the pump casing surface, on the bearing housing in the area of the anti-friction bearings and on the casing cover near the mechanical seal. The temperature occurring on the pump casing is almost the same as that of the liquid handled. A maximum temperature of 80 °C, if oil-lubricated, can be expected in the area of the anti-friction bearings, provided the requirements for appropriate pump operation are met and regular maintenance on the bearings is provided. Insulation of the bearing housing is not permissible. If the pump is adequately filled with liquid, the temperature of the liquid handled in the shaft seal area should not increase by more than 20 °K for dead end operation with a single-acting mechanical seal. With double-acting mechanical seals the temperature rise depends largely on the flushing or sealing liquid (if there is any doubt, please contact Sterling Fluid Systems). Thus, the following theoretical maximum temperature of the liquid handled as a function of the temperature class according to EN 13463-1 is obtained. The maximum operating temperature of the pump (see chapter 9) and the operating limits of the mechanical seal must be observed (if there is any doubt, please contact Sterling Fluid Systems or the mechanical seal manufacturer).
Temperature classes Permissible Max. permissible fluid as per EN 13463-1: surface temperature for compliance temperature with temperature class
T5 100 º C 80 º C T4 135 º C 115 º C T3 200 º C Temperature limit of pump T2 300 º C Temperature limit of pump T1 450 º C Temperature limit of pump
Make sure that the pump is always started up with the suction-side shut-off valve fully open and the discharge-side shut-off valve slightly open. However, the pump can also be started up against a closed swing check valve. Only after the pump has reached full rotational speed shall the discharge-side shut-off valve be adjusted to comply with the duty point. Safety note:

The permissible operating temperature of the pump in question is indicated in the technical data. If the pump is to be operated at a higher temperature, the technical data are missing or if the pump is part of a pool of pumps, the maximum permissible operating temperature must be requested from the pump manufacturer.
Pump operation with closed shut-off valves in the suction and / or discharge pipes is not permitted. In this case, there is a risk of the pump casing reaching a high surface temperatures after a very short time, due to a rapid temperature rise in the pumped fluid inside the pump. Additionally, the resulting rapid pressure build-up inside the pump may cause excessive stresses on the pump materials and even cause it to burst. The minimum flows indicated in the pump operating manual refer to water and water-like liquids. Longer operating periods with these liquids and at the flow rates indicated will not cause an additional increase in the temperatures on the pump surface. However, if the physical properties of the fluids handled are different from water, it is essential to check if an additional heat build-up may occur and if the minimum flow rate must therefore be increased. The calculation formula below can be used to check if an additional heat build-up may lead to a dangerous temperature increase at the pump surface.
To = Tf + ��
�� = ((g * H) / (c * �))*(1 - �)
c Specific heat of liquid [J / kg K] g Acceleration due to gravity [m2/s] H Pump head [m] Tf Temperature of fluid handled [º C] To Temperature of casing surface [º C] � Pump efficiency [-] �� Temperature difference [º C]
