OPERATIONAL SAFETY DATA:

CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING:

Warning:

This product and related accesso- ries contain chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.

CAUTION

MAINTENANCE SAFETY DATA:

Do not exceed rated pressures. Do not operate under minimum rated flow. Do not operate with discharge or suction valves closed. Do not adjust or disassemble any pressure containing component or shaft seal prior to depressurizing the system.

Warning: Relieve Pressure

Relieve system pressure prior to servicing the pump. Failure to do so can cause personal injury or property damage.

Use quality fasteners (OEM supplied) of proper size and material. Do not use force to draw piping flanges to pump as this may cause dangerous strains within the pump case and misalignment between the pump and driver. Do not disassmble or adjust any pressure containing component or shaft seal prior to relieving the pressure from the primary and auxiliary fluid systems. This will ensure no hazardous or high pressure fluid is ejected causing personal injury or equipment damage.

Warning:

Do not operate unless the suction is primed with fluid.

Never run pump dry. Do not operate without liquid supplied to the mechanical seal. Running the mechanical seal dry

(even for limited runs) can cause failure and fluid release.

Personal injury can occur.

CAUTION

Do not touch the pump while it is connected to hot or cold fluids. Doing so could cause personal injury.

INTRODUCTION:

RECEIVING SHIPMENT: Upon receiving shipment, check items against packing list. Be sure to inspect entire box for any additional parts and read all special instruction tags attached to the pump.

STORAGE: If the unit will not be installed immediately, the unit should be kept dry and in the shipping container until ready for installation.

HANDLING:

CAUTION

Heavy pumps and components. Serious injury or damage to the equipment could result from improper lifting and support.

You may hoist the isolated pump using the eyebolt in the bearing frame. If the pump is mounted on a baseplate, place a sling under the motor end and a sling under the pump end to hoist. If the pump and baseplate also contain a motor you may hoist by placing a sling under the motor end and a sling under the pump end.

Do not hoist the pump, motor and base assembly using the eyebolts in the pump or motor.

INSTALLATION:

MOTOR REQUIREMENTS AND SPECIFICATIONS:

The motor power rating cannot exceed the maximum power limitations of the pump. Consult the chart below to ensure proper power limitations.

3500 SERIES / MODEL 3550

FOUNDATION: The foundation must maintain alignment under normal and abnormal conditions as this is one of the most controlling aspects for the overall reliability of the pump. The foundation must be as heavy as possible and nonresonant so it can minimize vibration. The length and width of the foundation should project beyond the anchor bolts at least 6" (152mm) while considering a generous factor of safety when determining the thickness of the base.

Certified pump elevation drawings can be supplied. These drawings will include general information on determining the size and thickness of the base and dimensions for locating the anchor bolts.

Anchor bolts must be accurately situated and provided with sleeves. The sleeve bore diameter should be nearly double the diameter of the bolt, providing no less than .5" (13mm) clearance around the bolt.

Use an acceptable foundation for pump installation.

LEVELING: Acceptable parallel machined bearing plates or chock blocks need to be placed under the base along the sides and ends to distribute the load evenly. These must be leveled, lengthwise and widthwise, before installation of the base can begin.

GROUTING: The anchor bolts are for hold-down only.

The grouting withstands end thrust and side thrust while compensating for the nonuniformity between the base and the foundation, preventing the pump from shifting.

Use nonexpanding, nonshrinking and high strength grouting mixture.

Allow proper setting of grouting before tightening anchor bolts.

Check coupling alignment after tightening to ensure it has not changed. Realign as required in the Coupling Alignment instructions.

COUPLING ALIGNMENT:

Warning:

Always lock out electrical power to the driver before performing alignment. Failure to lock out power could result in serious injury.

NOTICE: Check rotation direction of the driver before coupling it to the pump. The front surface of the pump casing has indications of rotation direction. Damage to the pump will occur if the direction of rotation is not correct.

Good alignment through the flexible coupling will result in good service life of the driver and pump.

COUPLING INFORMATION:

• Use flexible type coupling for motor and pump.

• When aligning the shafts, the coupling should be disconnected and the halves should be brought into alignment.

ALIGNMENT CHECKS:

• Check cold alignment before and after grout has been applied to the baseplate.

• Prior to cold alignment piping should be connected to the pump.

3500 SERIES / MODEL 3550

• Operate the pump and driver for an adequate amount of time to achieve maximum operating temperature before the final or hot alignment is performed.

• Repeated checks of alignment should be performed to ensure proper, smooth and continuous operation.

• If any changes occur in process conditions it is recommended to perform an alignment check.

Warning:

Install coupling guard once alignment is completed. Ensure coupling guard is properly installed before operating the pump.

NOTICE: Inspect the alignment between the pump and driver to ensure no misalignment was caused in the transportation and handling of the unit.

Do not align if base and mounting flanges have not been tightened. Perform alignment when the pump and driver are at normal operating temperatures.

ALIGNMENT METHOD: There are many ways to ensure proper alignment, and specific alignment choices are the customer’s choice. If you require information on the double dial indicator method, contact the Aurora factory for details. Check

Hydraulic Institute Standards for additional information.

ALIGNMENT CRITERIA: Complete alignment occurs when the unit’s parallel and angular Total Indicator Run-out

(TIR) measures less than .005" (.13mm). Measure the parallel alignment on the rim of the coupling, and the angular alignment on the face of the coupling. Corrections need to be made if any values exceed those stated.

Warning:

Never use force to draw piping to pump flanges. This can cause excess strain on the pump case and misalignments can occur between the pump and driver resulting in serious injury and damage to the equipment.

Check Hydraulic Institute Standards for proper piping details.

PIPING FORCES AND MOMENTS: The discharge and suction piping flanges must be aligned concentric and parallel to the pump flanges. All piping must be independently supported near the pump to eliminate any forces that could be transmitted to the pump after the nuts and bolts have been securely fastened. Always tighten bolts 180° across from each other in an alternating fashion to ensure even gasket compression.

The piping system must be designed to allow for thermal expansion while not creating excessive forces on the pump due to the expansion/contraction, or the weight of the pipe and fluid.

NOTICE: Do not draw the piping to the pump by force.

Excess forces and moments on the pump will reduce seal and bearing life.

loops.

3500 SERIES / MODEL 3550

Excess forces and moments on the pump may occur due to:

• Thermal expansion and contraction of the piping indicating improper piping design and/or lack of expansion joints or

• Improper pipe support due to use of rod hangers (instead of spring hangers), anchors or restraints used when installing the piping.

• Misalignment of the pump suction and discharge flanges to the piping flanges.

SUCTION PIPING:

• Suction piping should not be less than the size of the pump suction nozzle. Suction piping should be no more than one size larger than the pump suction nozzle.

• Suction line velocities should not exceed 10 ft./sec. This will prevent cavitation of the pump.

• Fluid velocity guidelines are 4 to 6 ft./sec. for suction and 6 to 10 ft./sec. for discharge.

• Pressure drop across permanent suction strainers needs to be considered when calculating pump inlet suction pressure.

• Tee branches and valve stems must be installed perpendicular to the pipe centerline. Installing them parallel is incorrect.

NPSH: The pump must have enough positive suction head to prevent cavitation. The NPSH available (NPSHa) must be greater than the NPSH required (NPSHr). To locate NPSHr information, refer to the pump’s performance curve.

For submerged suction, the inlet must be located deep enough to prevent vortexing. If needed to prevent the formation of a vortex, provide vortex breakers in the suction vessel.

The suction piping must be free of all air pockets. An eccentric reducer may be used to reduce the chances of air pockets forming if joining different sizes of suction piping.

NOTICE: Never control the pump flow by throttling a valve in the suction line. The only function of the suction valve is to isolate the pump from the system for maintenance.

A straight length of suction piping (at least five times the diameter of the pipe) is recommended directly in front of the suction flange. Never insert an elbow directly in front of the suction flange.

All elbows in suction piping should be long radius.

When operating from the same supply source, separate suction lines are recommended.

Suction strainers need to have a total free area of at least three times the suction piping area.

A straight length of suction piping at least five times the diameter of the pipe is recommended directly in front of the suction flange.

Problems may occur if the elbow bolts directly to the pump’s suction. The liquid tends to follow the longer radius, creating a void or reverse flow along the shorter radius, which starves part of the impeller.

5 DIAMETERS

Piping for elevated source should be in one plane. A straight length of suction piping at least five times the diameter of the pipe is recommended directly in front of the suction flange.

5 DIAMETERS

NOT RECOMMENDED

Avoid situations where there are many elbows in many planes.

NOT RECOMMENDED

REDUCERS:

• Suction piping is usually no more than one diameter larger than pump suction nozzle.

SUCTION

3500 SERIES / MODEL 3550

ORIENTATION:

• For suction above centerline: Eccentric – Flat side on bottom. Concentric.

Install an isolation valve to prevent the pump, at start-up, from running in excess of the pump curve by throttling while the system is being filled. The isolation valve is also used to isolate the pump for maintenance.

Undersized valves can cause excessive flow restriction. Install reducers between the check valve and the pump to prevent this.

If system demands require long periods of near shut-off operation, a recirculation line should be installed. Install the recirculation line off the discharge line, which returns to the supply reservoir below the liquid level. Install a valve or orifice in the bypass line to regulate flow. An automatic valve may be needed to regulate flow or to prevent excessive stops and starts. Automatic valves are needed especially when using large motors.

Quick acting valves should be installed to protect the pump from surges and water hammer in the system.

MECHANICAL SEAL:

• For suction below centerline: Eccentric – Flat side on top.

Concentric not recommended.

PIPING INSTALLATION:

• To minimize friction losses, piping runs should be as short as possible.

• Flanges should be concentric allowing the bolts to be inserted into the flange holes with finger pressure only. Do not use spud wrenches or come-a-longs to align the flange holes.

• To prevent excessive nozzle loads, piping should be anchored, restrained and supported separate from the pump, near the suction and discharge.

• Limit parallelism of the flange gasket surfaces to .002"/in. of normal pipe size with a maximum parallelism of .03".

EXAMPLE USING 4" PIPE:

4 x .002" = .008" max.

• 3" and under pipe sizes are flexible. These allow a .008" maximum out-of-parallelism without causing shaft alignment problems.

• Be sure to have the pump grouted and aligned prior to connecting the last 20' of piping to the pump suction and discharge.

• To monitor movement when the piping is bolted up, install dial indicators from the driver to the pump. The maximum acceptable movement is .002".

• Tighten flange bolt to 2/3 torque using crisscross pattern for first pass. Finish the final bolt torque in a clockwise pattern.

DISCHARGE PIPING: Install a check valve between the isolation valve and the pump to protect the pump from running backward when it is shut down.

Warning:

Never operate the pump without liquid supplied to the mechanical seal. Running the mechanical seal dry, even for short periods, can cause seal damage and/or failure. Physical injury can occur if mechanical seal fails.

The mechanical seal is flushed and cooled by the pumped fluid or an external source. If using an external source, the media must be clean, solid-free and compatible with the pumped fluid.

Quench, vent and/or drain ports are available as seal options.

Make proper connections when required by the application.

Always follow all seal instructions.

BEFORE PUMP OPERATION:

Confirm that:

• All set screws are tightened to the shaft.

• All centering clips are removed.

• All required mechanical seal auxiliary systems are properly installed and connected.

Because seal life is dependent on a variety of factors

(cleanliness of process, operating conditions, etc.), it is difficult to predict seal life for a given application.

LUBRICATION:

BEARING OIL LUBE: Fill pump bearing frame with high quality, antifoaming turbine oil. Oil should contain rust and oxidation inhibitors.

SUGGESTED OILS:

Mobil DTE Heavy Medium

Royal Purple Synfilm IOS VG 68 (synthetic)

Shell Turbo NO. T68

Shell Omala 68

Texaco Regal R + O NO. 68

Change oil every 12 months. Oil should be changed more frequently under severe environmental conditions (dust, moisture, corrosive atmospheres, etc.).

PROPERTIES OF LUBRICATING OIL:

3500 SERIES / MODEL 3550

ISO GRADE VG...................................................................... 68

Approximate SSU at 100°F (40°C) ....................................... 300

300 Kinematic Viscosity at 100°F (40°C)(cSt) ....................... 68

BEARING FRAME: Use the optional cooling coil for water cooling of the bearing frame. The cooling coil is required only when the pumped media temperature surpasses 400°F (204°C) at 1800 RPM or 300°F (149°C) at 3600 RPM. Under these conditions, ambient temperature water at 1–3 gallons/minute

(.23 to .68 m 3 /hr.) is required for appropriate cooling of the oil.

To keep the oil temperature below the maximum recommended, higher flows may be necessary.

OIL LEVEL: The oil level in the bearing frame should be one-half (1/2) of the way up the oil sight glass when the unit is not operating.

BEARING FRAME OIL VOLUMES:

Turn on the cooling water before allowing the hot process fluid to enter the pump.

SEAL CHAMBER: Water jacketed seal chambers are available. Requirements for the jacket are based on the type of mechanical seal and selection of elastomers.

Bearing Frame Oil Capacity

Frame Pints (ml)

S 1.0 (473)

2.6 (1,230)

3.0 (1,420)

7.4 (3,502)

Ambient temperature water at 2–3 gallons/minute (.45 to .68 m /hour) is required for appropriate cooling of the seal chamber when a jacket is installed.

A jacket is recommended for any application over 350°F

(177°C). Consult the factory for specific recommendations.

BEARING GREASE LUBE: Choose premium quality lithium grease. The grease should have an NLGI 2 or 3 consistency and a base oil viscosity of 68 centistokes minimum at 40°C. Pregrease the bearings after assembly onto the shaft when reassembling the pump. Pack the bearings full with grease; pack the bearing housing adjacent to the bearings onethird (1/3) to one-half (1/2) full.

SEAL FLUSH: The seals may be cooled and/or heated 1) from an external source or 2) by passing pump discharge fluid through a heat exchanger and then into the seal flush connection. A double seal may use cooled/heated barrier fluid from an external source or convection system.

Always follow all required seal operating instructions as listed in the seal instruction booklet.

OPERATION:

START-UP INSPECTION:

NOTICE: Never mix greases of different consistencies.

SUGGESTED GREASES:

Chesterton #615

SKF LGMT2/LGMT3

REGREASING INTERVALS: For back-to-back angular contact, single and double row bearings, add several shots of grease from a grease gun at the following intervals:

RPM

1180 RPM

1750 RPM

3550 RPM

Hourly Interval

5000 hours

4000 hours

1250 hours

1. Check Installation. Examine the entire pump package for proper alignment. Confirm that all auxiliary systems are connected and ready for use.

2. Check Rotation Direction.

NOTICE: Improper rotation direction will damage the pump.

Bearings need regreasing more frequently at bearing temperatures above 150°F (66°C). Halve greasing intervals for every 27°F (15°C) increase. Grease temperature should not exceed 185°F (85°C). Replace the grease completely at every third regreasing interval or at least once a year minimum.

NOTICE: Overgreasing is the most common cause of bearing overheating and contributes to premature bearing failure.

COUPLING LUBRICATION: Consult the coupling manufacturer’s instructions for lubrication information.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL:

NOTICE: Normal operating oil temperature should be below 160°F (71°C) and should NEVER surpass 180°F

(82°C).

Warning:

Lock out driver to prevent accidental start-up and physical injury.

The coupling must be totally disconnected from the pump and driver when checking for proper rotation direction.

Operate the driver independently to check for proper rotation. The pump rotation should be clockwise when viewed from the coupling end. The rotation direction is distinguished by an arrow on the front of the casing.

3. Check Impeller Clearance.

NOTICE: Setting impeller clearance is crucial for maintaining maximum pump efficiency. Be sure to compensate for additional thermal growth in high temperature applications. Consult Appendix I (page 22) of the manual to set impeller clearance.

Set impeller clearance.

a. When making adjustments, unseat the mechanical seal from the shaft.

3500 SERIES / MODEL 3550

START-UP:

b. Check total clearance. Confirm that it follows the given instructions.

NOTICE: Before start-up, confirm that the shaft turns freely by hand (clockwise when facing the coupling end).

c. Set the proper operating clearance on the suction side of the impeller.

Increase the clearance on the suction side of the impeller if the pumpage temperature exceeds 100°F (38°C). Consult

Appendix I Table I of the manual for proper instructions.

Open the suction valve completely. Start the pump with the discharge valve open approximately 20% before gradually opening the valve until reaching design flow point. The discharge valve should be adjusted to achieve proper process flow, operating as close to the BEP as possible. The suction line should not be throttled or restricted at all during the operation.

4. Check Rotating Element. To confirm a free-rotating element, turn the shaft by hand several times (there will be a degree of resistance due to the bearings and the mechanical seal). Do not attempt to operate the pump if any rubbing noise occurs during this process. Instead, readjust the impeller clearance as outlined in Appendix I, then reset the mechanical seal according to its instructions.

PUMP PERFORMANCE: Once started, confirm that the pump is running at or close to the operating point on the pump performance curve. Throttle the discharge valve if the pump is overloading the motor or delivering too much flow. A restriction orifice at the pump discharge may be necessary to control pump capacity.

Monitor all the flows and pressures to the auxiliary components and adjust accordingly.

5. Check Lubrication. Inspect the pump, motor and coupling for proper lubrication.

Check the mechanical seal and all other connections for potential leakage. Tighten where necessary.

AUXILIARIES START-UP: The unit’s auxiliary components must be turned on where applicable before priming and starting the pump. Do not start the pump / motor until all the auxiliary systems are fully operating.

BEARING FRAME COOLING: Turn on the water to the cooling coil in the bottom of the oil sump if applicable. For proper flow requirements, consult page 8 of the manual.

Shut down the pump when it has run for one hour and is at maximum operating temperature. Then, turn the shaft by hand

(in the direction of the rotation arrow) to establish that the rotating element is not binding and the impeller is not rubbing.

Also check the shaft alignment. Consult page 5 for coupling alignment.

MECHANICAL SEAL: Turn on the flush, quench or barrier fluid to the mechanical seal if applicable. Regulate pressure and flow according to the seal manufacturer's installation instructions. Turn on the heating/cooling fluid if the seal flush includes a heat exchanger.

SEAL CHAMBER JACKET: Turn on the water to the cooling jacket attached to the seal chamber. For proper flow requirements, consult page 8 of the manual.

Danger:

Never operate the pump below minimum rated flow and/or with the discharge valve closed. These operating conditions could cause extreme temperature rise in the pump and an explosive hazard. Also, premature failure can result due to high radial loads and excess vibration.

SHUTDOWN:

PRIMING:

To shut down the pump:

The pump is now ready to be primed.

1. Close the pump discharge valve.

1. Turn off the pump and de-energize the motor. Be sure motor is locked out before attempting to work on the pump.

2. Open the pump suction valve.

Warning:

Never operate the pump dry. It is important that the pump never be subjected to thermal shock. The liquid must be allowed to enter the pump casing slowly. A centrifugal pump should never be started until all parts have been gradually brought to the ultimate intended pump temperature.

3. Confirm that all vent and/or ejector connections are closed after priming.

Warning:

Lock out driver to prevent accidental start-up and physical injury.

2. Close the discharge valve and the suction valve.

3. Drain the pump casing.

4. Turn off all auxiliary components in the reverse order from start-up.

5. To prevent damage from freezing in cold weather, the entire pump (including all auxiliary components) should be completely drained.

Tag valves as standard practice.

DIAL INDICATOR METHOD:

APPENDIX II: COUPLING GUARDS INSTALLATION

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Lock out power supply to motor.

2. Remove coupling guard and spacer.

3. Place a dial indicator with a magnetic mounting base on the surface of the pump baseplate. Indicator should be placed against face of pump shaft.

4. Loosen jacking bolts (370D) and jam nuts (423).

Warning:

Before assembly or disassembly of the coupling guard is performed the motor must be de-energized, the motor controller/starter put in a locked-out position and a caution tag placed at the starter indicating the disconnect. Replace coupling guard before resuming normal operation of the pump. Pump manufacturer assumes no liability if this requirement is not followed.

5. Tighten bearing housing bolts (370C) evenly while slowly rotating the shaft. Continue rotating until the impeller begins to rub the casing. Set the dial indicator to zero.

6. Tighten jacking bolts (370D) evenly until they contact the bearing frame. Continue tightening the jacking bolts

(about one flat at a time), drawing the bearing housing away from the frame until the dial indicator shows appropriate clearance.

Simple design allows complete assembly of the coupling guard in about 15 minutes, including assembly of the end plate (pump end). Assembly can be accomplished in about five minutes if the end plate is already in place.

ASSEMBLY:

NOTE: If end plate (pump end) is already installed, make any necessary coupling adjustments and proceed to Step 2.

7. Tighten bearing housing bolts (370C) evenly before tightening jacking bolts (370D). Check that the dial indicator reading does not move from the appropriate setting. Rotate shaft to check for free turning.

8. Reinstall coupling spacer and guard.

1. S, M, L Models: Align end plate (pump end) to bearing frame (no impeller adjustment required).

XL Model: Align end plate (pump end) to pump bearing housing so that 1) large slots on end plate clear bearing housing tap bolts and 2) small slots are aligned to impeller adjusting bolts. Attach end plate to bearing housing using jam nuts on impeller adjusting bolts.

Check and reset impeller clearance after end plate is attached to bearing housing.

NOTE: Complete coupling adjustments before proceeding with coupling guard assembly.

2. Spread bottom of coupling guard half (pump end) slightly and place over pump end plate (the annular groove in the guard half is located around the end plate).

3500 SERIES / MODEL 3550

3. Once coupling guard half (pump end) is located around end plate, tighten it securely with a bolt, nut and two washers through the round hole at front end of guard half.

DISASSEMBLY: Remove the coupling guard for certain maintenance and adjustments to the pump. Specific instances include adjustment of the coupling, impeller clearance adjustment, etc. The coupling guard must be replaced after completing maintenance procedures.

4. Spread bottom of coupling guard half (driver end) slightly, then place over coupling guard half (pump end). Check that annular groove in coupling guard half (driver end) faces motor.

5. Place end plate (driver end) over motor shaft. Locate end plate in annular groove at rear of coupling guard half (driver end), then hand-tighten with a bolt, nut and two washers through the round hole at rear of guard half.

DO NOT resume pump operation with the coupling guard removed.

NOTE: For reverse order assembly, refer to diagrams.

1. Remove nut, bolt and washers from center slotted hole in coupling guard. Slide motor end coupling guard half toward pump.

6. To completely cover shafts and coupling, adjust length of coupling guard by sliding coupling guard half (driver end) toward motor. Secure with bolt, nut and two washers through slotted holes at center of guard and tighten. Inspect all nuts on guard assembly for proper tightness.

2. Remove nut, bolt and washers from coupling guard half

(driver end) and remove end plate.

3. Spread bottom of coupling guard half slightly and lift off.

Warning:

Before assembly or disassembly of the coupling guard is performed, the motor must be de-energized, the motor controller/starter put in a locked-out position and a caution tag placed at the starter indicating the disconnect. Replace coupling guard before resuming normal operation of the pump.

4. Remove remaining nut, bolt and washers from coupling guard half (pump end). Spread bottom of coupling guard half slightly and lift off.

Disassembly of the coupling guard is now complete.

NOTE: Bearing housing tap bolts are accessible without removing end plate if maintenance of internal pump parts is necessary. Therefore, it is unnecessary to remove end plate (pump end) from pump bearing housing.

BEARING ISOLATORS:

The Aurora model 3550 pump comes with Impro ® bearing isolators. These labyrinth seals are highly effective at keeping oil in the bearing frame while keeping contaminants out. The drain hole must be at the bottom (6 o’clock position) for proper operation. This seal has a theoretically infinite life as it is a noncontacting seal; however, it can be damaged through an outright bearing failure in close clearance situations. The rotor is driven by a replaceable O-ring which fits onto the pump shaft. The stator OD is sealed with a replaceable O-ring. A third O-ring is internal to the seal and cannot be replaced. Due to this, treat the seal as an assembly and replace it as such if necessary.
