1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Introduction
Persons responsible for the equipment covered in this manual must ensure
that it is properly and safely installed and maintained, and operated at the
specified conditions. Only appropriately qualified staff, applying acceptable
standards of engineering practice and the recommendations contained in
this manual, must be employed in these activities.
Any similar instructions for the overall plant in which the equipment is to be
incorporated, which have an influence on the equipment application, must
be strictly followed.
The Uniglide-e range is a new generation of axial split pumps. The range
has been developed by Clyde Union Limited following an extensive
consultation of major users. This has produced an advanced pump which
will provide total reliability and reduced whole life costs.
2 SAFETY
Handle Safely
Obtain Approval
Electrical Isolation
Hydraulic Isolation
Emergency Stops
The equipment must be fitted with one or more emergency stop devices
(not supplied by SPX-CUP). The emergency stop devices must be fitted by
the buyer prior to putting the pump packages in to service.
When installing and operating the pump, the safety instructions contained
in this manual, all relevant national safety/accident prevention regulations
and any other site service and safety instructions issued by the plant
operator must be observed.
Guards for moving parts (i.e. coupling and spray guards) must not be
removed from the unit whilst it is in operation.
Before the pump or system is dismantled in any way, the electrical supply
must be physically disconnected or isolated and locked out, the nature of
the pumped fluid must be ascertained and the pump drained and
neutralised as necessary.
3 GENERAL INFORMATION
Your pump will give you satisfactory and trouble-free service when the
instructions in this manual are carefully followed.
If the pump is to be used for any operating conditions other than those
specified in our final order acceptance including all amendments (e.g.
changes of head, capacity, NPSH, temperature, liquid, environment, prime
mover etc.), our written confirmation for suitability of the pump under such
changed conditions should be obtained.
(2) Due skill and care is not exerted when installing, operating and
maintaining the unit.
(3) Our written confirmation for suitability of the pump under changed
operating conditions is not obtained.
3.2 Nameplate
Every Clyde Union Pump has a nameplate that provides information about
the pump, the nameplate is located on the bottom half casing feet.
3.3 Storage
Protect bearings and couplings against the ingress of sand, grit and other
foreign matter. Store in a vibration-free area, preferably on wood or resilient
packing. Turn the pumpset by hand at least once weekly.
3.4 Lifting
Insert lifting hooks at the four corners and use slings or chains to connect to
the crane.
4 INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS
(2) Check holding down bolt hole pockets and concrete plinth/foundation,
referring to the foundation drawing.
(3) Using station vertical and horizontal datums, mark off all centrelines
onto the site foundation.
(5) Set and level off packing plates of nominally 25 mm thickness on each
side of the foundation bolt pockets ready to support the baseplate.
The foundation plinth should be kept approximately 25 mm low to
allow final levelling of baseplate.
(6) Using steel straight edge and spirit level, check the preliminary height
level of all packers relative to the previously marked centrelines and
datum.
(7) Where possible, arrange pipework so that the pump operates with
positive suction.
(8) The suction pipework should be adequately sized, free from bends
and air pockets, and as direct as possible, apart from such provision
as may be necessary for expansion.
(9) Check the integrity of suction piping joints and valve stuffing boxes by
leak testing the system.
(10) Where the discharge pipework does not rise continuously, and air
pockets can form, it is important to provide some form of air release
valve.
4.2 Installation
WARNING
war
(1) All parts of the assembly must be cleaned before installation. All
traces of rust preventative must be removed from the suction and
discharge flange faces, exposed shafting and all coupling surfaces.
(2) Before positioning the pump, clean the underside of the baseplate.
Locate the foundation bolts in the baseplate, retaining them with the
nuts, having first greased all threads. Temporary collars or coiled wire
can be used to assist in centralising the bolts in the baseplate. Check
that holding-down bolt pockets are clean and dry.
(4) Ensure that the pump discharge and suction branch flanges are level.
(5) Make the final pipework connections to the pump, (refer to Section 3),
then grout in the pump foundation bolts. The bolts should be grouted
to within 20 mm of the top of the holding down bolt pocket, thus
providing a key for the final grouting of the baseplate. (Grout using
Armorex L2 or equivalent).
(6) When foundation bolt grouting has cured, torque holding down bolt
nuts, re-check and ensure level, and that centres and datum have
been maintained.
Do not fit the coupling bolts until the motor has been
given an uncoupled test run, (see operation
procedures in Part 5).
Store bolts and coupling guard safety.
NOTE
Fig. 2
(iv)
(ii) Set the dial to zero and chalk mark the coupling half where
the button rests. Place a separator between the coupling
halves so bearing slack does not effect the readings.
Rotate both shafts by the same amount.
(iii) The dial readings will indicate whether the driver has been
raised, lowered or moved the either side. Accurate
alignment of shaft centres can be obtained with this
method even where faces or outside diameters of the
coupling are not square or concentric with the bores. After
each adjustment, recheck both parallel and angular
alignments.
(8) Check that the distance between shaft ends (DBSE) dimension is as
shown on General Arrangement Drawing.
(9) After levelling and alignment is completed and all foundation bolts
pulled down tightly, preparation for grouting the baseplate can
commence. Shuttering should be erected all round the baseplate to a
height of at least 76 mm (3 inches) above the upper flange of the
baseplate to give a slight head on the grout; thus the boarding should
normally be 102 mm - 115 mm (4-4 1/2 inches) high.The shuttering
should be positioned such that when it is removed a rectangular
section of grout 76 mm (3 inches) X 50 mm (2 inches) wide should
remain around the outside of the bedplate.
(10) Saturate the top of the rough foundation with water and pour the grout
between the shuttering and the baseplate until it passes beneath the
lower flanges, so that when hardened it supports these by rising about
50 mm (2 inches) above the lower flanges. The flow should be
assisted by agitating with a bent wire (or similar) from all sides and
from the centre of the baseplate.
(11) Grout should comprise one part Portland cement and two parts sand
(no aggregate) with sufficient water to produce a free flowing heavy
cream consistency. The mixture described should flow easily under
the baseplate and, in order to minimise settlement, it is best to mix the
grout and let it stand for two hours, re-mixing it thoroughly before use
but adding no more water.
(12) The exposed surfaces should be covered with hessian to prevent the
grout cracking by too rapid drying. The hessian should be kept damp
until the grout is sufficiently set.
(14) If power is available, check the motor for correct direction of rotation
before connecting the coupling. Refer to the general arrangement
drawing.
(2) When installing pipework, the pump branch flange face should be the
final closure joint. Prior to connection of the pipework, carefully
monitor the alignment of the mating faces. The pipes must never be
pulled into place to align with pump discharge or suction branches.
(Refer to Table 2.1).
(3) All pipework and pipe fittings local to the pumpset must be
independently supported and suitably anchored against forces and
moments. Refer to Arrangement Drawing for details of maximum
foundation loadings.
(4) Take every precaution to keep equipment clean and prevent the
ingress of dirt and moisture. If necessary, temporarily seal off
openings as pipework installation progresses. Check all pipework for
internal cleanliness, before installation.
(5) Before finally welding or bolting pipes and fittings into place, check
that vent, drain, instrument connections and flange drillings, are
correctly orientated. Similarly, confirm the flow direction and
handwheel position of all valves and fittings are correct and that visual
or physical access is available as necessary during subsequent
operations.
(6) Re-check and record pump shaft to motor alignment after pipework
has been connected. This should show no appreciable difference
from the previous checks. If the alignment has altered, the pipework
should be freed from discharge and suction branches, demonstrating
return of pre-pipe connection coupling alignment. All adjustments
should be carried out on pipework and not on pumpset.
Provided the pump is operated within the limits stated on the nameplate,
the pump will not generate a pressure in excess of the maximum allowable
discharge pressure.
This unit should not be pressure tested in the fully assembled condition
without the prior agreement of Clyde Union Limited.

5 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The following instructions must be used in conjunction with those for the
system in which the pump operates.
Before starting the pump for the first time after installation carry out the
following checks:-
(1) Ensure that all installation procedures have been completed. (See
Part 4).
(2) Check that all associated valves and pipework are correctly installed,
and adequately supported. Check that all valves are operational, and
any temporary blanks, gauze filters etc. are removed.
(3) Check that holding-down bolts are torqued to their correct value.
(Refer to the General Arrangement drawing).
(4) Check that all control and any instrumentation connections are
complete and valves/ cocks etc. are set correctly.
(7) Check that pump and motor rotating assemblies are free to turn by
hand. If either shaft is found to be binding, do not operate until the
cause of the trouble is found.
(8) Check that motor air intakes and outlets are clear and clean.
(9) Check that pumpset is properly earthed and that all electrical
connections are correct and secure.
(10) Open up suction valve, open casing vent and prime pump. When fully
primed, close casing vent. Check for leaks at flange connections and
glands.
(11) Remove all debris, tools, lifting gear etc., from around pumpset and
cordon off area ready for commissioning runs of pumpset.
5.2 Priming
The pump is of the centrifugal type and will only operate when completely
full of water. The pump must, therefore, be carefully primed before starting.
Priming of the pump involves removal of air, gas or vapour from the suction
pipework and pump casing via the air release valve.
CAUTION
In a new system the pump should remain fully primed from shut-down to
start-up, making further action unnecessary. Foot valves, however, are
liable to wear or jam and may lose the prime after a short period. It is
advisable, therefore, to check the state of prime before start-up.
(1) Obtain formal approval to carry out an uncoupled motor test run.
(2) Confirm that coupling bolts are not fitted. Check motor shaft is free to
turn.
(4) Arrange for electrical power to be made available to motor. Set motor
controls to MANUAL and, where relevant, transfer operation to local
starting panel. Attach notices to electrical panels to warn others of
intended test procedure.
(7) When satisfied with motor light load running performance, stop the
motor. Note the time taken for motor to come to rest.
WARNING
5.5 Start-up
(1) Immediately after start-up, check and record the pump discharge
pressure and motor current. If the readings are outside expected
figures, the motor may be running in the wrong direction of rotation.
Refer to the wiring diagram to correct.
