NOTES:

1. For commercial use, log hours of operation to determine proper maintenance intervals.
2. For continuous 24 hour per day operation, grease the mechanical seal weekly.
3. For continuous 24 hour per day operation, grease every 2 to 4 months. For normal operation, & hours per day, grease every 4 to 3 months.

Please dispose of used oil in a manner that is compatible with the environment. We suggest you take used oil in a sealed container to your local recycling center or service station for reclamation. Do not throw it in the trash; pour it on the ground, or down a drain as oil can be harmful to the environment.

Items to Monitor

To perform general maintenance properly, it is important to pay close attention to the pump while it is running.The following are items to monitor:

Heat, Pressure, Vibration, Noise, Flow, Speed, Strain, Liquid Level, Power Consumption, Product Contamination, Leakage and Emissions.

Serious items to watch for,cavitation and water hammer, are two occurrences seen frequently in the aggregates market. To prevent cavitation, run the pump at the proper speed or provide a larger suction hose to handle the fluid. Water hammer, which is a spike in discharge pressure and often the cause of blown seals, can be prevented by starting the pump and slowly throttling up to recommended max speed. Multiple check valves in the discharge line can also provide relief to water hammer.
