VERTICAL CLOSE COUPLED INLINE CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS

PART I - GENERAL

1.01 DESCRIPTION

The Contractor shall furnish materials, equipment and labor to furnish, install and test the pumping system complete with the pumps, motors, mounting bases, piping, valves and appurtenances, as indicated on the contract drawings and as herein specified.

1.02 INSTALLATION

The Contractor shall insure that the pumps and motors are properly installed with no pipe strain transmitted to the pump casing.

1.03 RESPONSIBILITY

To assure a properly integrated and compatible system, all equipment described in this section shall be furnished by the Pump

Manufacturer, who shall assume full responsibility for the proper operation of the pumps and associated equipment.

1.04 SUPERVISION

The Contractor shall arrange for the Pump Manufacturer to provide a factory-trained representative as required for the purposed of supervising installation, start-up, final field acceptance testing, and providing instruction to the owner's operating personnel in the proper operation and maintenance of the equipment in this section.

The work in this section is subject to the requirements of applicable portions of the following standards:

Hydraulic Institute Standards

OSHA Rules and Regulations

PART II - PRODUCTS

The pump shall be a centrifugal vertical close coupled inline back pull-out, Aurora Pump Model 382 or pre-approved equal. Preapproval must be obtained a minimum of ten days before bid date.

2.02 MATERIALS OF CONSTRUCTION

Casing...........................Cast Iron (ASTM A48)

Impeller.........................Bronze (ASTM B62)

Shaft............................Steel (AISI C1045)

Case Wear Ring...................Bronze (ASTM B62)

Shaft Sleeve.....................Bronze (ASTM B62)

Power Frame......................Cast Iron (ASTM A48)

2.03 CASING

The casing will be of the end suction hydraulic design, with the suction and discharge flanges the same size located on a common CL 180* apart for mounting in pipe line. The pump shall include a volute type casing suction branch to minimize pumping noise.

2.04 IMPELLERS

The impellers shall be vacuum cast. They shall be finished all over, the exterior being turned and the interior being finished smooth and cleaned of all burrs, trimmings, and irregularities. The impellers shall be dynamically balanced.

The impellers will be keylocked to the shaft.

2.05 CASE WEARING RINGS

The pump casing and stuffing box cover shall each be fitted with a case wear ring to minimize abrasive and corrosive wear to the casing.

An additional case wear ring shall be supplied between the impellers.

The case wear ring shall be of the radial type, press fitted into the casing.

Each pump is to be furnished with a mechanical seal with a Ni-

Resist seat, carbon washer, Buna-N elastomers and stainless steel metal parts. A bypass line must be provided between the seal faces and the discharge flange to assure adequate venting of the seal chamber and to provide lubrication.

2.07 SHAFT

The impellers shall be direct-coupled to the power frame shaft.

The shaft shall be machined to provide an impeller keyway, and drilled and tapped to accept the impeller fastener. The shaft shall be onepiece. Stub shafts are not acceptable. The outboard shaft extension shall be machined with a keyway to accept a coupling to the driving unit. Water slingers shall be furnished on both the inboard and outboard shaft extension.

The pump shaft shall be fitted with a shaft sleeve to minimize shaft wear.The sleeve shall be sealed to the impeller hub by an O-ring, and shall be positively driven by a pin to the keyway. The use of adhesive compounds to fasten the sleeve to the shaft shall not be accepted.

2.14 MOTOR

Each pump is to be close-coupled to a motor shall in accordance with the latest NEMA standards, and shall have the following characteristics:

Enclosure....................Open Drip Proof/TEFC/X-

Proof

Number of Phases.............Three

Each motor shall have a sufficient horsepower rating to operate the pump at any point on the pump's head-capacity curve without overloading the nameplate horsepower rating of the motor regardless of service factor. The motor shall have a service factor of 1.15. The service factor is reserve for variations in voltage and frequency.

PART III - PERFORMANCE

3.01 CONDITIONS OF SERVICE

The following conditions of service shall be strictly adhered to: constant)

Number of Units..................?

Discharge Size...................2.5 in, minimum

Suction Size.....................2.5 in, minimum

Design Capacity.................. US gpm

Design Head...................... ft

Efficiency at Design............. %, minimum

Rotative Speed...................3500 RPM, maximum

Shut-off Head....................203 ft, minimum

Driver Horsepower................19.1 hp, minimum

NPSHR at Design.................. ft, maximum

3.02 INSPECTION AND FACTORY TESTS

Each centrifugal pump furnished under these specifications shall be tested at the factory to verify individual performance (VIP).

Certified copies of all test reports shall be submitted to the Engineer for approval prior to shipment. Each unit shall be hydrostatically tested in accordance with the Hydraulic Institute Standards.

3.03 INSTALLATION AND ACCEPTANCE TESTS

A. The pumping units shall be installed in accordance with the instructions of the manufacturer and as shown on the drawings by the Contractor.

B. Installation shall include furnishing the required oil and grease for initial operation. The grades of oil and grease shall be in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations.
