CHAPTER 3 Installation
Centering is already performed correctly at the factory. For reasons of handling it during transportation and
a difference in foundation surface between the factory and the site, the common base may be deflected if
the pump is installed as it is, and this may cause axial offset between the pump and the motor, thereby
making normal operation impossible.
Perform installation and centering according to the following procedure.
3.3 Pump Installation
•
•
•
•
NOTICE At installation, perform centering for the pump and motor for each process.
After stuffing concrete, be careful not to freeze it.
Frozen concrete becomes low in strength.
Don't apply the piping load to the pump. If the load is applied to the pump, this will
result in equipment damage, vibrations or noise.
Before pipe connections, clean the inside of each pipe. If any foreign material
stays there, the pump will be damaged.
3.1 Pump installation
Put the pump, motor and common base on
the temporary liner and also set the anchor
bolts in the anchor bolt holes. Make a
clearance of 30 to 50 mm to cause mortar to
flow between the bottom surface of the base
and the foundation floor. (Fig. 3-4)

In the status where the anchor bolts are set on the common base, cause concrete to flow into the anchor bolt
holes to fix the anchor bolts.
3.3 Pad creation and real liner installation
The pad is a basis for fixing the real liner and created by mixing common cement, sand and water at the rate of
1:1: small quantity, and a proper quantity of non-shrinking agent recommended by the maker.
After completion of compaction to the goal height, put the parallel liner.
Arrange the real liner so that the anchor bolt may be in the center of the real liner as shown in Fig, 3-5, and so
that the real liner may be as near to the bolt as possible on both sides.
Adjust the parallel liner position to the setting height from the reference level surface with the level gauge and
obtain the horizontality in the direction of the liner with the level gauge.
After the concrete is hardened and the setting at the installation is completed, tighten the nuts of the anchor
bolts.

MODEL DF AXIALLY SPLIT CASING HORIZONTAL DOUBLE SUCTION CENTRIFUGAL PUMP
Installation,Operation and Maintenance Manual
It is desirable to operate the pump at a value close to the flow rate at which the maximum efficiency can be
obtained. In some cases, however, the pump must be inevitably operated at a smaller flow rate or larger flow
rate for the reason of use. In these cases, it is necessary to use the pump with a good understanding of
pump characteristics.
1.1 Operation at extremely small flow rate
If the pump is operated at an extremely small flow rate or cut-off point for a long time, vibrations and noise will
be increased and an overheat symptom will appear.
1.2 Operation at extremely large flow rate
Like operation at an extremely small flow rate, you must pay attention to an increase of vibrations and noise
and cavitation due to lowered suction performance. In this status, the pump performance will be remarkably
lowered, resulting in a failure.
2.1 Preparations before starting the pump
Check that pump centering is already completed.
Independent operation of the motor
To check the direction of rotation after completion of motor wiring, operate the motor without load. At that
time, check that the direction of rotation is equal to that indicated on the nameplate provided on the pump.
After checking, be sure to turn off the power supply.

CHAPTER 5 Control during Operation
Routine inspection
Check if any leak does not occur.
If a leak is found, make the following checks.
Leak from the slide surface.
Wear or damage on the floating seat slide surface
Wear or damage on the seal ring slide surface
Inclination of the slide surface and spindle
Inclusion of foreign materials on the slide surface
Swing or vibration of the spindle
Strain or one-side touch of the slide surface due to installation, etc.
Leak from any portion other than the slide surface
This leak may be attributable to a defect or installation defect of packing such as O- ring.
The cause can be found by careful observation of the leak status.
In the case of a leak, disassemble and replace the corresponding parts.
Check if flushing is normally performed.
If a strainer is provided in the flushing pipe, clean the strainer periodically. In the early stage of operation (after
disassembly and inspection), clean it at intervals of 1 or 2 days.
After that, determine the cleaning time according to the clogging status.
Handling of mechanical seal
Generally, take the following points into consideration.
Check if any dust or foreign material is stuck on each part of the mechanical seal and each part of the pump
side. Don't touch the slide surface with a bare hand.
Check that any defective part is not included in packing.
Check that any burr does not exist on the pump parts on which the packing is installed.
Installation of mechanical seal
Perform installation work with special care for precision equipment in accordance with the mechanical seal
drawing or the instruction manual.
The DF-S type pump is classified into the grease lubrication type and the oil lubrication type.
Perform replacement or refilling referring to the LUBRICANT OIL LIST.
In the case of the oil lubrication type, replace oil once every 6 months to every year depending
on the operating condition and enviroment as a matter of replacement intervals.In the early stage (after delivery
or after disassembly and inspection),replace the oil once every 2 to 3 months.
In the case of the grease lubrication type, if too much grease is refilled, heat generation will occur. Refill
grease to 1/3 to 1/2 of the bearing case. Perform refilling once every 2 or 3 months.
Usually, for a roller bearing, replace oil when the total time reaches 20000 to 40000 hours. If any abnormal
noise or vibration or any abnormal heat generation is found during operation, replace it regardless of the
operating duration.

Chapter 6 Storage and Curing
When the pump must be stopped over 2 months, inform us of it.
Special rust prevention is required depending on the storage period.
Generally, execute the following points.
Bleed the liquid in the pump completely. (*1)
Take a proper rust preventive measure for portions where rust tends to occur.
When the machine work surface such as flange surface is exposed, take a rust preventive measure using a
rust preventive agent. (*2)
Rotate the rotary body by hand once a week to change the contact portion of the bearing.
Check the rust generation status, too.
When operating the pump after a long-time stop, check the direct coupling status (centering check) between
the pump and the motor, then start with the check items before starting.
During the stop period, perform disassembly and inspection. Check each section and make
a schedule for part replacement or spare part procurement as required.

8.1 Precautions on Pump Disassembly and Assembly
! WARNING Before starting disassembly work, make sure that the motor power supply is
shut off.
When lifting, pay attention to the weight, lifting angle, work place.
The pump is heavy. If it drops, it will invite danger.
•
•
! CAUTION Have a good understanding of the pump structure and don't mistake about the
work sequence.
•
Prepare replacement parts beforehand.
As a rule, all the packings will be replaced. Prepare them beforehand. Use the packings of the specified
materials and dimensions.
For contact sections and fitting sections, clean them and apply necessary machine oil or liquid packing (*1),
then perform the work with proper tools without strain.
Tighten each bolt avoiding one-side tightening.
If there is a lock plate, bend it and be sure to put a detent.
The match surfaces of necessary portions are provided with a match mark. Pay attention to it.
If the match mark is unclear at disassembly put a match mark anew.
After disassembly, keep parts with care. At assembly, perform assembly at specified positions pay attention
to the match marks.
Measure the dimensions of each slide section and record the measurement results.
Arrange additional parts as required.

8.2 Disassembly Procedure
8.3 Assembly Procedure
Pull out the shaft coupling bolt and disconnect the pump from the motor.
Discharge the bearing oil and bleed the lift liquid in the casing.
Remove each small pipe to separate it from the pump.
Remove the packing gland.
Remove the casing match surface bolts and detach the upper casing.
In the case of the grease lubrication bearing, separate the bearing housing and the lower casing, and lift the
rotary body in the status where the bearing housing is built in the rotary body. (*2)
Unless it is required, don't remove the rotary bodies such as impeller and shaft coupling from the spindle for
disassembly. (Except when the shaft sleeve is replaced)
For assembly, reverse the disassembly procedure. Take the following items into consideration.
Clean the junction surface and the fitting surface enough and remove any scratch or burr thoroughly.
To the junction surface and the fitting surface, apply seizure preventive material or liquid packing (*3).
Clean the residual lubricating oil in the bearing housing completely.
Perform repair painting (*4) as required.
Be careful not to neglect assembling packings and small parts.

CHAPTER 8 Maintenance and Inspection
8.4 Disassembly and Inspection
8.5 Spare Parts
4.1 5-year inspection
Pump disassembly and inspection are greatly different depending on water quality, material, and operating
frequency. However, we recommend you to execute them at intervals of 2 or 3 years after the first use.
Inspection items
Clearance between the impeller and the casing wearing ring (wear amount)
Wear amount of the shaft sleeve
Internal inspection about corrosion of the liquid contact section
For the replacement standard, refer to 4.6 Parts Replacement.
Recommended replacement parts
Ball bearing, shaft sleeve, etc.
The seal materials including seat packing and O-ring must be totally replaced.
Regarding painting, all-surface painting is required for the liquid contact section and repair painting is
required for the liquid non-contact section.
Preparations for the next disassembly and inspection
According to inspection results, make a procurement schedule for parts that are considered to be replaced
at the next disassembly and inspection.
4.2 10-year inspection
We recommend you to perform disassembly and inspection at our factory. The bearing and shaft sleeve will
be replaced and the whole pump including the impeller, casing and spindle will be precisely inspected.
5.1 Recommended spare parts
Arrange spare parts beforehand so that the pump may not be stopped for a long time if any abnormality is
found at pump inspection.
Usually, we recommend you to keep the following parts as reserves.
Casing wearing ring
Shaft sleeve
Gland packing (mechanical seal)
Ball bearing
O-ring and gasket
Lubricating oil
Rubber bushing (flange type flexible shaft coupling)

8.6 Parts Replacement After the pump is operated for a long time, each slide section will be worn away. Consequently, the clearance
will become large, resulting in performance lowering or vibration generation. The replacement standard must
be examined from different aspects and cannot be easily determined. Fig. 8-1 shows a reference standard
