5.3 Installing the pump/unit
5
Installation at site
Before placing the baseplate on the foundation, make sure that
the concrete foundation is clean and smooth. The complete
pump unit must be aligned horizontally with the help of a
precision spirit level.
5.1 Safety regulations / Special instructions
Electrical equipment operated in potentially
explosive atmospheres must comply with the
relevant explosion protection regulations. This is
indicated on the motor rating plate. If the equipment is
installed in potentially explosive atmospheres, the
applicable local explosion protection regulations and the
regulations of the test certificate supplied with the
equipment and issued by the responsible approval
authorities must be observed and complied with. The test
certificate supplied must be kept close to the location of
operation for easy access (e.g. foreman’s office).
It is imperative that the factory-aligned unit mounted on the
baseplate be re-aligned after it has been fastened on the
foundation and after the piping has been connected (precision
alignment).
After placing the pump unit on the foundation, align it with the
help of a spirit level placed on the shaft/discharge nozzle. The
correct distance between the coupling halves as specified in
the general arrangement drawing must be observed. Shims
shall be fitted between the baseplate/foundation frame and the
foundation itself; they shall always be inserted to the left and
right of the foundation bolts and in close proximity to these bolts.
For a bolt-to-bolt clearance > 800mm, additional shims shall be
used. All shims must lie perfectly flush.
Centrifugal pumps will only give trouble-free
operation if carefully installed and properly serviced.
Note: The pump’s name plate shows the type series, pump
size, version, main operating data and the works number (see
also section 4.2).

not warped in axial or radial direction.
Proceed with utmost care when aligning the unit, as the pump
unit will only give trouble-free operation when correctly aligned.
Non-compliance with these instructions will lead to forfeiture of
all warranty claims.
Channel section baseplates (up to 400 mm wide) are
torsion-resistant in their own right; they need not be grouted.
After fastening, baseplates more than 400 mm wide shall be
grouted up to the upper frame edge using low shrinkage
concrete, making sure that no cavities remain.
Close-coupled pumps
This unit must not be operated beyond the limit
values for capacity, speed and temperature
specified on the name plate. Make sure that operation is in
accordance with the instructions laid down in this manual
or in the contract documentation. All values stipulated for
electrical connection of the unit as well as instructions
given for installation and maintenance must be adhered to
without fail. Operation of the unit outside the
above-mentioned conditions may result in overloads the
unit cannot withstand.
It is essential to make sure that the pump is not warped in axial
or radial direction.
If pump and motor are supplied separately, place the pump onto
the foundation without the motor, align with the help of a
precision spirit level (on the upper flange of the drive lantern),
then fasten.
To align the pump, shims shall be fitted between the pump foot
and the foundation itself; they shall always be inserted to the left
and right of the foundation bolts and in close proximity to these
bolts. All shims must lie perfectly flush. Tighten the foundation
bolts evenly and firmly.
Skilled, properly trained personnel is essential to ensure
trouble-free operation of the unit.
KSB shall not accept any liability if the instructions set
forth in this manual are not complied with.
In case of damage or if you need further information please
contact our nearest customer service centre.
5.2 Foundation / Checks to be carried out prior to
installation
All structural work required must have been prepared in
accordance with the dimensions stated in the dimension table /
general arrangement drawing.
Shim
The concrete foundations shall have sufficient strength (min.
class X0) to ensure safe and functional installation in
accordance with DIN 1045 or equivalent standards.
Make sure that the concrete foundation has set firmly before
placing the unit on it. Its surface shall be truly horizontal and
even.

Prior to checking the alignment/realignment, loosen the pump
feet and re-tighten without transmitting any stresses or strains.
Coupling check and realignment must be
effected even if pump and motor are supplied
completely assembled and aligned on a common baseplate.
Caution
This will avoid that any increase in pump length due to
thermal expansion will lead to warping and deformation.
The increase in height of pump and drive due to thermal
expansion may differ; this has to be considered when
aligning the coupling of pump units handling temperatures of
100LC and higher.
The following equation can serve as a guide to estimate by
how much the motor has to be elevated in relation to the
pump:

Max. permissible pipeline forces
(material codes 10, 11, 12, 13)
Suction lift lines shall be laid with a rising slope towards the
pump and suction head lines with a downward slope towards
the pump, to prevent the formation of air pockets.
With short pipelines, the nominal diameters should be at least
equal to the nominal diameters of the pump nozzles. For long
pipelines, the most economical nominal diameter has to be
determined from case to case.
Adapters to larger diameters should have a diffuser angle of
approx. 8L in order to avoid any pressure losses caused by the
formation of air pockets or gas.

Caution
when the pump is already installed, the electric
welding equipment must not be earthed on the pump or
baseplate, to prevent current flowing through the rolling element
bearings, which could cause their premature destruction (pitting
effect).
Example:
Multitec 50 with radial suction nozzle
Thermal expansions of the pipelines must be
compensated by appropriate measures so as not to
impose any extra loads on the pump.
Expansion joints may have to be used. An excessive,
impermissible increase in the pipeline forces may cause leaks
on the pump where the fluid handled can escape into the
atmosphere.

Protection against foreign matter
Before commissioning new installations thoroughly clean, flush
and blow through all vessels, pipelines and connections. Often
welding beads, scale and other impurities only come off after a
certain period of operation. Fit a strainer in the suction line to
prevent them from entering the pump. The total cross-section of
the holes in the strainer shall be three times the cross-section of
the pipeline in order to avoid excessive pressure loss across
the strainer due to clogging. Conical strainers with laid in wire
mesh having a mesh width of 0.5 mm and a wire diameter of
0.25 mm, of corrosion-resistant material, shall be used.

Where liquid has to be pumped out of a vessel under vacuum, it
is advisable to install a vacuum balanceline. Thisline shallhave
a minimum nom. diameter of 25 mm and must extend above the
highest permissible liquid level of the vessel.
An additional pipeline fitted with a shut-off valve – from the
pump discharge nozzle to the balance line – facilitates venting
of the pump before start-up.

6.1.2 Priming the pump and checks to be carried out
Fig. 15
Before each start-up, the pump and the suction line must be
completely vented and primed with the fluid to be pumped. The
pump has several plugged holes for venting; adequate venting
devices can be used in the pipelines. The shut-off valve in the
suction or feed line must be fully open.
The seal chamber has to be vented when the
pump is in cold condition before start-up. When
Caution
venting in hot condition, steam will escape at the vent plug
during the venting process (risk of scalding!) Should it not be
possible to avoid opening the seal chamber in hot condition,
due to the situation in the plant, a pipe with valve (not included in
KSB’s scope of supply) must be installed at the vent hole, in
order to lead the steam escaping during venting to another
place where there is no danger of scalding. Make sure that this
valve cannot be opened during operation.
Fully open all auxiliary connections provided and check the
throughflow.
Open shut-off valve ”C” in the vacuum balance line (if any), and
close the vacuum-tight shut-off valve ”E” (see 5.4.1).
Dry running will lead to increased wear on the unit

temperatures or leakage, switch off the unit
immediately and re-start it only after the cause for the problem
has been eliminated.
Increased temperatures at the rolling element bearings after
commissioning are caused by the running-in process. The final
bearing temperature will be reached only after a certain
operating period (up to 48 h, depending on operating
conditions).
Mechanical seal
The mechanical seal assembly has beenadjusted andinstalled
in the factory. It is maintenance-free. Check the seal for leakage
occasionally.
During commissioning, increased leakage may occur for a
short period of time. If leakage remains high, immediately
switch off the pump and investigate the leakage cause, e.g.
contaminated fluid handled or previous dry running due to
inadequate venting of the pump unit.
6.1.6 Shutdown
Close the shut-off valve in the discharge line.
If the discharge line is equipped with a non-return or check
valve, the shut-off element may remain open if there is sufficient
backpressure.
Cooled mechanical seal (seal code 64)
If the pump is fitted with a cooled mechanical seal (seal code
64), vent the seal chamber as described in 6.1.1.

-
-
Switch off the motor, making sure that the unit runs down
smoothly to a standstill.
For prolonged shutdown, close the shut-off valve in the
suction line. Also close the auxiliary feed lines.
The shaft seal in pumps where the liquid is fed in under
vacuum must also be supplied with barrier liquid during
standstill.
6.2
Operating limits
The hydraulic system is designed for pure or slightly
contaminated liquids (max. solids content: 20 ppm). Make sure
that the operating limits indicated in the order confirmation are
complied with.
-
In the event of frost and/or prolonged shutdowns, the pump
must be drained or otherwise protected against freezing.

6.2.2 Switching frequency
Prolonged shutdown periods should be avoided in the case of
pumps in material variants 10, 13, 20 and 21 (cast-iron
variants), particularly if the pumps are handling aggressive
water qualities (high oxygen content). In such cases, the pump
should remain filled, and the operation check run should be
performed at least every other day, instead of once a month or
once every 3 months (see also 6.1.5).
In the event of frost and/or prolonged shutdowns, the pump
must be drained and protected against freezing and corrosion.
To drain the pump, open drain plug 6B.
The permissible number of start-ups in a given period of time
depends on the circumstances prevailing in the plant and the
operating conditions. Overloading of the motor may generally
result in:
-
an abnormal increase in motor temperature exceeding the
temperature limit of the winding or bearing grease
premature coupling wear
reduced service life of the pump components
irregularities or malfunctions in the plant
-
-
-
To prevent abnormal temperature increases in the motor and
excessive loads on the motor, coupling, pump, seals and
bearings, the switching frequency must not exceed the
following number of start-ups per hour (h):
In the case of horizontal pumps, virtually
Caution
complete drainage of the stage casings in

6.3.2 The pump is removed from the pipe and stored
Before putting the pump into storage, carry out all checks and
maintenance work specified in section 7.1. Then preserve as
follows:
from 4 to 11 kW
from 11 to 45 kW
45 kW and higher
Drain the pump as completely as possible. On vertical pumps,
this can be done by opening the drain plugs on the suction
casing.
Horizontal pumps with drain holes in the stage casings
(optional) can be drained almost completely by opening the
drain plugs. The pump can also be drained by bringing it into a
vertical position - suction nozzle pointing downwards - by crane
(see 3.1). Turn the rotor by hand. However, the seal housing
must still be drained separately by opening the respective drain
plug.
6.2.3 Minimum flows
The pump must not be operated against a closed gate valve.
The minimum flows required are defined as follows.
For MTC 32, MTC 50 and MTC 65, the required minimum flow
for continuous operation is:
t
-10 to + 100 LC
15 % of Qopt
20 % of Qopt
25 % of Qopt
t > 100 to + 140 LC
t > 140 to + 200 LC
If the pump cannot be drained completely, we
recommend to dismantle it and dry the individual
components.
For MTC 100, MTC 125 and MTC 150, the minimum flow
required for continuous operation, independent of the
temperature, is:
Afterwards fill the pump with a water-repellent preservative, e.g.
RUSTELO DEWATERING 924 (producer CASTROL)
OSYRIS DW (producer TOTAL) or equivalent.
Turn the pump rotor by hand several times, to ensure even
distribution of the preservative. Then drain the pump and close
the suction and discharge nozzle.
0.35 x Qopt.
For MTC 100, MTC 125 and MTC 150 an additional, short--term
minimum flow of 0.25 x Qopt. has been defined, which is
permitted for up to 1 hour’s uninterrupted operation and approx.
200 h/year.
The minimum flows indicated for MTC 32 to 150 above are for
single pump operation and will prevent thermal and mechanical
overloading of the pump. In case of parallel operation with
pumps of identical or different design higher flow rates may be
required in some cases, to guarantee a stable operating
behaviour.
Exposed blank metal parts must be treated with a suitable
anti-corrosive agent.
If the pump is preserved for a prolonged storage
Caution
period with KLÜBERTOP K 01-601 or another
glycol-base preservative, the preservative must not be drained.
In this case, the pump must be completely filled with
preservative for storage. The preservative must be drained
before the pump is returned to service. It can be re-used. Before
re-use, make sure that the water content in the preservative
does not exceed 20%.
6.2.4 Density of fluid pumped
The pump input power will increase in proportion to the density
of the fluid handled. To avoid overloading of the motor and
pump, the density of the fluid must comply with the data
specified on the purchase order.
6.4
Returning to service after storage
Before returning the pump to service, carry out all instructions
laid down in the sections on ”Commissioning” (6.1) and
”Operating limits” (6.2).
6.3
Shutdown / Storage / Preservation
Immediately following completion of the work, all
safety-relevant and protective devices must be re-installed
and/or re-activated.
6.3.1 The unit / pump remains installed; periodic check of
operation
In order to make sure that the pump is always ready for instant
start-up and to prevent the formation of deposits within the
pump and the pump intake area, start up the pump set regularly
once a month or once every 3 months for a short time (approx. 5
minutes) during prolonged shutdown periods. Follow the
instructions for commissioning (see 6.1).

Servicing / maintenance
On grease-lubricated units, the rolling element bearings of the
MTC32 and the non-drive end rolling element bearings of the
MTC50 and MTC65 in design C and D are lubricated for life and
do not require re-lubrication. For this reason, no lubricating nip-
ples are provided on the bearing brackets.
7.1
General instructions
The operator is responsible for ensuring that all maintenance,
inspection and installation work be performed by authorized,
qualified personnel who are thoroughly familiar with the
manual.
A regular maintenance schedule will help avoid expensive
repairs and contribute to trouble-free, reliable operation of the
pump with a minimum of maintenance expenditure and work.
Before commencing any work on the unit, always
make sure that the drive unit (electric motor, turbine,
I.C. engine, ...) cannot be started up.
Pump
Depending on the pump version, the rolling element bearings
are either grease-lubricated or oil-lubricated.
Grease quality / Grease change
The bearings are packed with high-quality lithium-soap grease.
Depending on the size and the operating hours of the pump, the
rolling element bearings must be re-lubricated or the grease in
the rolling element bearings must be replaced.
Pumps handling liquids posing health hazards must
be decontaminated. When draining the fluid pumped
see to it that there is no risk to persons or the environment.
All relevant laws must be heeded.

Caution
Max. permissible room temperature 40 LC.
If re-lubrication intervals are short, we recommend to
completely replace the grease once a year. If this is not the
case, the grease fill must be replaced completely at least every
two years. For this purpose, the rolling element bearings must
be removed, cleaned and packed with new grease.
Under unfavourable operating conditions, e.g. high ambient
temperature, high atmospheric humidity, dust-laden air,
aggressive industrial atmosphere etc., the bearings shall be
checked earlier and cleaned and packed with new grease, if
required.
The bearing temperature may exceed room temperature by up
to 50 LC, but must never rise above 90 LC (measured on the
outside of the bearing bracket), see also section 7.4.4.1.
Do not run the pump against a closed shut-off valve for
prolonged periods of time so as to avoid heating up of the
fluid pumped.
Caution: For required minimum flows please refer to section
6.2.3.
During pump operation the shut-off valve in the suction
line must not be closed.
Use a high-quality lithium-soap grease, free of resin and acid,
not liable to crumble and with good rust-preventive
characteristics. The grease should have a penetration number
(NLGI class) between 2 and 3, corresponding to a worked
penetration between 220 and 295 mm/10. Its drop point must
not be below 175LC. The bearing cavities must only be
half-filled with grease.
If required, the bearings may be lubricated with greases of other
soap bases. Since greases of differing soap bases must not be
mixed, the bearings must be thoroughly cleaned beforehand.
The re-lubrication intervals required must then be adjusted to
the greases used.
The mechanical seal shows only slight or invisible (vapour)
leakage during operation. It is maintenance-free.
Gland packings must leak slightly (individual drops).
Any stand-by pumps installed shall be switched on and then
immediately off again once a week to keep them operational.
Attention shall be paid to the correct functioning of the auxiliary
connections.

Reassembly
The pump shall be reassembled in accordance
Caution
with the rules of sound engineering practice.
-
-
Under no circumstances use force.
Due to their weight, some pump components must be
supported during reassembly.
-
-
Before reassembly, the locating surfaces of the individual
components must be coated with a mounting aid in
compliance with hygienic and safety regulations.
The properties of new pump components must not be
altered without prior consultation with our technical
departments.
-
-
-
The parts must be clean and free from shavings or dust.
Reassembly is effected in reverse order to dismantling.
The tightening torques indicated must be complied with.
Avoid the use of mounting aids as far as possible. Should a
mounting aid be required after all, use a commercially
available contact adhesive, e.g. Pattex, Hylomar or Epple
33, after prior consultation with our technical departments.
The adhesive shall only be applied at selected points and in
thin layers. Do not use cyanoacrylate adhesives
(quick-setting adhesives).

7.4.1 Tightening torques - Tie bolts, part No. 905
Tighten the gland cover by hand at first. Use a feeler gauge to
check the level position of the gland cover. It must be easy to
turn the rotor by hand.
Leakage is normal during pump commissioning. After approx. 5
minutes’ operating period, the amount of leakage can be
reduced by steadily tightening the nuts of the gland cover by 1/6
of a turn. Keep an eye on the amount of leakage and the water
temperature. It takes several hours of pump operation for the
gland to be adjusted completely. There must be a high leakage
rate during the running-in period.

sequence of reassembly does not pose any special problems
and shall be realized in accordance with the detailed sectional
drawing and list of components. The components shall be
re-installed in the same place as before dismantling.
A clearance of 0.7 to 1.2 mm shall be set between the last

Gland packing
Before re-packing, thoroughly clean the packing chamber and
the gland cover.
Packing rings must be inserted so that the cut
edge of each ring is displaced by approx. 90L to
120L in relation to the previous one.
Caution
Slip the pre-stressed packing rings onto the shaft protecting
sleeve, press home the first packing ring with the help of the
gland cover. Each packing ring must be pressed into the
packing chamber individually, using the gland cover.
On gland packings with lantern ring (for vacuum operation), the
lantern ring is mounted instead of the next to last packing ring
(the last packing ring is located in the seal chamberon thepump
side).

Mechanical seals
Mechanical seals are precision components. The
seat ring and the spring-loaded ring must always
be replaced together, i.e. always replace the entire mechanical
seal.

Remove seal cover 471.1 (471.2 for bellows-type seals) and
check position of seat ring in the seal cover.
Check the O-ring on sleeve 523.1.
Caution
To ensure trouble-free operation of the mechanical seal, the
seal faces and the tools must be absolutely clean. Mechanical
seals must be installed with utmost care.
The contact faces shall only be cleaned immediately before
assembly takes place. They must not be greasy (grease,
smudges ...) or damaged.
Individual seal components such as O-rings made of EPDM
must never come into contact with oil or grease.
Mechanical seal reassembly is effected in reverse order to
dismantling.
When mounting the spring-loaded ring, we recommend to wet
the shaft protecting sleeve with clean fluid handled.
The seat ring and the spring-loaded ring shall always be
mounted by hand resp. fingers, making sure that pressure is
applied evenly, without tilting.

Radial bearing
7.5.2
Repairs
Versions C and D are equipped with a deep-groove ball bearing
as radial bearing. (The other versions are fitted with a plain
bearing in the suction casing). The outer race of the
deep-groove ball bearing must have axial play. The bearing is
installed without spacer discs 551.1.
Clearance between impeller 231 and suction casing:
Sizes 32 to 65 for material codes 10,11, 12, 13:
Re-working the suction casing and mounting a spare casing
wear ring as per ZN 1095 and re-working the impeller.
For other pump sizes and material codes:
Replacing the casing wear ring 502.1 with a spare ring as per
ZN 1095 and re-working the impeller.
Clearance between impeller 230 and disc 550.1 or casing
wear ring 502.2
(Sizes 125 and 150):
Replacing the casing wear ring 502.2 with a spare ring as per
ZN 1095 and re-working the impeller.
(Sizes 32 to 100):
Two repair methods are possible:
a) Replacing the impellers 230 and discs 550.1 by new ones.
Quick repair method, no re-work of parts required.
b) Re-working the impellers 230 at the impeller eye by deposit
welding and subsequently machining to the original diameter.
This repair method is used for impellers made of stainless steel.
Clearance gaps between impeller 230 and diffuser:
a) Re-working the impellers at the sealing gaps of the hubs.
Re-working the diffusers and installing an interstage bush as
per ZN 140.
b) Should hub thickness be insufficient after re-working, replace
the impeller or fit a spacer sleeve (see drawing below). The
spacer sleeve must be driven by the impeller key. Make sure
that the load-carrying key length in the impeller is at least 2/3 of
the total (load-carrying) key length.

7.4.4.1 Temperature of the rolling element bearings
The temperature of the rolling element bearings,
Caution
which run at 3000 1/min and more, can be 90LC.
Manual temperature checks are not sufficient !
-
The bearings only reach their normal operating temperature
after several hours of operation.
-
When a new pump is started up, the bearing temperature
may exceed 95LC. After 2 or 3 operating hours it will sink
slowly and level out to a constant value after approx. 1 week.
A temperature rise may occur after service activities
comprising replacement of the bearings or dismantling of the
hydraulic system.
-
Should the temperature exceed 100LC during start-up, switch
off the pump and perform the following checks:
-
-
Check whether the unit is correctly aligned.
Remove the bearings, check grease quantity.
Excessive amounts of grease will cause increased
temperatures.
-
-
Verify bearing type and arrangement (see 7.4.4.4)
Re-start the pump. Ensure tight press fit between outerraces
and cover (fixed bearing).
