2.4 MANTENIMIENTO Y LIMPIEZA


El Programa o Plan de Mantenimiento Preventivo se trata de la descripcin detallada de
las tareas de Mantenimiento Preventivo asociadas a un equipo o mquina, explicando
las acciones, plazos y recambios a utilizar; en general, hablamos de tareas de
limpieza, comprobacin, ajuste, lubricacin y sustitucin de piezas.
Para una mayor durabilidad del equipo se recomienda tener en cuenta estos puntos:

Es recomendable limpiar el equipo una vez que se ha terminado la


experimentacin.

El equipo requiere poco mantenimiento y la limpieza es realmente fcil.

En general los componentes de la unidad son de tipo industrial y no


requieren de mantenimiento en un periodo largo de tiempo.

Si la unidad o alguna de sus secciones no fuera utilizada por un periodo de


tiempo superior a una semana, es recomendable realizar una limpieza y
asegurarse de dejar las tuberas vacas y el hervidor.

La limpieza exterior se puede hacer con un trapo hmedo, generalmente lo


que es necesario remover es simplemente polvo. No limpiar con solventes.

GABINETE DE CONTROL: Cada vez que sea necesaria una revisin elctrica,
es indispensable estar seguros que el cuadro de control se encuentra NO
ENERGIZADO. Colocar el interruptor general en OFF. Bajar la pastilla de

3.1 FUNDAMENTOS TERICOS


Efecto de la presin en una membrana de smosis inversa
La smosis inversa separa un soluto de una solucin, obligando al disolvente a fluir a
travs de una membrana mediante la aplicacin de una presin mayor que la presin
osmtica normal. En la smosis inversa las molculas de soluto son de
aproximadamente el mismo tamaa
que las del disolvente. Esos procesos de
separacin basados en diferencia de presin a travs de una membrana combinan la
adaptabilidad con la simplicidad tcnica. A diferencia de los procesos de destilacin y
congelacin, pueden funcionar a temperaturas ambiente sin cambio de fases.
Efecto del caudal de recirculacin en un proceso de separacin

Cuando en la corriente de salida de una operacin los productos finales van


acompaados de cantidades importantes de material sin procesar, se puede proceder
al tratamiento de stos ltimos, separndolos, y volvindolos de nuevo a la unidad de
proceso. Se dice entonces que se efecta una recirculacin.

Se distinguen cinco corrientes, (seis en la mayor parte de los casos):
- A: alimentacin fresca.
- B: flujo de entrada en la unidad de proceso.
- C: flujo de salida de la unidad de proceso.
- D: flujo de salida de la planta.
- E: flujo de reciclo o recirculacin.
En un proceso con recirculacin estn implicadas una etapa de mezclado y una etapa
de separacin. Por tanto, se pueden aplicar las ecuaciones vistas anteriormente:
Balances totales: mA + mE = mB; mC = mE + mD

Balances parciales: mAWi(A) + mEWi(E) = mBWi(B); mCWi(C) = mE Wi(E) + mD Wi(D)
Los procesos con recirculacin se caracterizan por la denominada "Relacin de
recirculacin", que expresa, normalmente, la relacin entre los flujos de reciclo y de
alimentacin fresca:
R=mE/mA
Con la recirculacin se consiguen incrementar los rendimientos o recuperaciones, y se
recupera la energa contenida en el flujo de reciclo. Existe una limitacin tcnica para
este proceso, (aparte de las propias derivadas del balance econmico), ya que si los
productos reciclados van acompaados de materias inertes o impurezas, la proporcin
de stas ir aumentando en el flujo de entrada a la unidad de proceso, de forma que
llegar un momento en que ser necesario purgar el reciclo, total o parcialmente,
(corriente F).

Curvas de caudal
La manera en la que una bomba trabaja depende no slo de las caractersticas de
funcionamiento de la bomba, sino tambin de las caractersticas del sistema en el cual
vaya a trabajar. Para el caso de una bomba dada, mostramos las caractersticas de
funcionamiento de la bomba (h respecto a Q) para una velocidad de operacin dada,
normalmente cercana a la velocidad que da el rendimiento mximo. Tambin
mostramos la curva caracterstica del sistema (es decir, la altura de bombeo requerida
respecto a Q). En este caso, la bomba est suministrando lquido a travs de un
sistema de tuberas con una altura esttica D z. La altura que la bomba debe
desarrollar es igual a la elevacin esttica ms la prdida total de carga en el sistema
de tuberas (aproximadamente proporcional) a Q). La altura de funcionamiento de la
bomba real y el caudal son determinados por la interseccin de las dos curvas.
Los valores especficos de h y Q determinados por esta interseccin pueden ser o no
ser los de mximo rendimiento. Si no lo son, significa que la bomba no es exactamente
la adecuada para esas condiciones especficas.
El punto de funcionamiento o punto ptimo de una bomba solodinmica es el de la
curva H Q que corresponde a un rendimiento mximo. Cuanto ms empinada sea la
curva H Q, mas significativo ser el efecto de cualquier cambio de altura en el punto
de funcionamiento.
Por ejemplo, una bomba con una curva H Q empinada presentar un pequeo
cambio de descarga pero la altura variar mucho si se desplaza el punto de
funcionamiento, en cambio una bomba cuya curva H Q sea plana, mostrar un gran
cambio de capacidad pero la altura variar poco al desplazarse el punto de
funcionamiento
Las curvas H Q para las bombas centrfugas son sustancialmente planas, con
tendencia a que el sedimento mximo se site inmediatamente despus de la
capacidad media.

Nw

(17-54)

En donde Ns= flujo de soluto a travs de la membrana, (g*mol)/(s*cm 2); Dsm=


coeficiente de difusin de soluto en la membrana, cm2/s, Csm= concentracin de soluto
en la membrana. (g*mol)/(cm3), Cwm= concentracin de disolvente en la membrana,
(g*mol)/cm3; y ks=coeficiente de acoplamiento (entre cero y la unidad) La eficiencia
de rechazo se define mediante

Rs

1 (C s 2 / C s1 )

Aplicacin de la Ecuacin Kohlrausch


La conductividad molar o equivalente de una disolucin de un electrolito (AB = A - +
B+) vara con la concentracin. Su variacin depende en gran medida de las
caractersticas del soluto, las cuales vienen dadas por su constante de disociacin K a
[7]:

Los electrolitos fuertes (Ka grande) presentan conductividades elevadas, incluso


cuando su concentracin tambin lo es. Por el contrario, los electrolitos dbiles (K a
pequea) presentan conductividades molares o equivalentes pequeas, cuando la
concentracin es alta y grande, cuando la concentracin es muy pequea. Este
comportamiento -aparentemente atpico- se debe al incremento del grado de
disociacin que experimenta un electrolito dbil cuando su concentracin es pequea.
nicamente para los electrolitos fuertes ha sido posible establecer una relacin
cuantitativa entre la conductividad molar o equivalente -cualquiera que sea la
concentracin- con la conductividad a dilucin infinita, que representa el valor que
alcanza la conductividad cuando la concentracin tiende a cero. Esta relacin [8] se
conoce con el nombre de ecuacin de Kohlrausch:

0 = Conductividad a dilucin infinita (Sm-1).
Kc = Constante emprica.
Ceq = Concentracin (equivalentes-gramoL-1).

Estudio de la influencia del coeficiente de conversin y de la presin sobre la


calidad del permeato
A mayor presin aplicada sobre una membrana, ms alto es el flujo de permeato, la
presin osmtica del agua puede ser calculada por la siguiente regla:
Presin Osmtica (PSI) = Total de slidos disueltos /100
Para estimar los efectos de la presin neta siga los siguientes pasos.
Calcule la Presin Neta para la cual la membrana fue calculada (Pr)
Pr = Presin de diseo- Presin osmtica de solucin test.
Calcule la presin neta de las condiciones de operacin (Pop).
Pop = Promedio Presin Aplicada - Promedio Presin Osmtica del agua de
alimentacin.
Flujo de permeato esperado en las condiciones de operacin = (Flujo diseo) x
Pop / Pr.

Prctica 2. Obtencin de concentracin a partir de la conductividad

Objetivo
Aprender un mtodo para calcular concentraciones de electrolitos a partir de valores
experimentales de conductividad, utilizando las leyes de Osanger y Kohlrausch.

Procedimiento de conversin de conductividad a concentracin


Se muestra a continuacin el procedimiento para convertir valores de conductividad a
expresiones de concentracin.

Se da como ejemplo los clculos para una solucin de NaCl.

Important Information on Meter Calibration

Your meter has five measuring ranges. You can calibrate one point in each of
the measuring ranges (up to five points). If you are measuring values in more
than one range, make sure to calibrate each of the ranges you are measuring.
The following table lists the corresponding conductivity and TDS ranges. You
should calibrate each range using a solution that falls between the values in the
recommended calibration solution range column

When you recalibrate your meter, old calibrations are replaced on a range
basis. For example, if you previously calibrated your conductivity meter at 1413
S in the 0 to 2000 S range and you recalibrate at 1500 S (also in the 0 to
2000 S range), the meter will replace the old calibration data (1413 S) in that
range. The meter will retain all calibration data in other ranges.
To completely recalibrate your meter, or when you use a replacement probe, it
is best to clear all calibration data. To erase all the old conductivity or TDS
calibration data completely, see Section 6.8 Restore Factory Default Values.

13

Instruction Manual

4.2

CON 6/TDS 6

Preparing the Meter for Calibration

Before starting calibration, make sure you are in the correct measurement
mode.
For best results, select a standard value close to the sample value you are
measuring. Alternatively use a calibration solution value that is approximately
2/3 the full-scale value of the measurement range you plan to use. For
example, in the 0 to 2000 S conductivity range, use a 1413 S solution for
calibration.
Calibrate to all measurement ranges to ensure the highest accuracy throughout
all measurement range. Note that CON 6/ TDS 6 will not accept calibration
values less than 40 S/cm (20 ppm). All new calibration values will
automatically override existing data.
If you are measuring in solutions with Conductivity lower than 100 S/cm or
TDS lower than 50 ppm, calibrate the meter at least once a week to get good
accuracy. If you are measuring in the mid ranges and you wash the probe in
deionized water and store it dry, calibrate the meter once a month. If you take
measurements at extreme temperatures, calibrate at least once a week.
Ensure that you use new Conductivity standard solutions or sachets during
calibration. Do not reuse standard solutions as it may be contaminated and
affect the calibration and accuracy of measurements. Use fresh calibration
solution each time you calibrate your meter. Store solutions in a dry and cool
environment if possible.
Always rinse the probe with either deionized water or rinse solution before and
after each calibration/sample measurement to avoid cross-contamination. For
details please refer to Section 7 - Probe Care and Maintenance.
NOTE: These meters are factory set to a temperature
coefficient of 2.1% per C. For most applications
this will provide good results.
To set the temperature coefficient to different value,
see Section 6.5 Temperature Coefficient.
Also, see Addendum 3 - Calculating Temperature
Coefficient to determine the appropriate
temperature coefficient for your solution.

PROBE CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Keep the conductivity probe clean. Rinse the probe twice, and gently swirl it
while you take readings. For best accuracy, soak a dry probe for at least 5 to 10
minutes or longer before calibration. Rinse the probe with deionized or tap
water before storing. Never scratch the bands with a hard substance. Do not
strike the probe against any hard surface.

Do not immerse the probe in oily solutions. Clean the


electrode thoroughly by stirring it in a mild detergent
bath or isopropyl alcohol. Wipe the probe with a soft
tissue paper. Rinse thoroughly in tap water and then in
deionized water. Recalibrate the meter after cleaning
the probe.

The conductivity probe (Order Part No. ECCONSEN91B/ 35606-55) which is included with your
meter features a removable probe guard to make
cleaning easy.

To remove probe guard:


1)

Grip yellow probe guard and twist clockwise. The


locking notch will release.

2)

Slide probe guard off end of probe.

NOTE: Remember to re-attach the probe guard prior to taking readings. Failure
to do so could result in erroneous readings.

CONDUCTIVITY THEORY

Conductance is a quantity associated with the ability of primarily aqueous


solutions to carry an electrical current, I, between two metallic electrodes when
a voltage E is connected to them. Though water itself is a rather poor conductor
of electricity, the presence of ions in the water increases its conductance
considerably, the current being carried by the migration of the dissolved ions.
This is a clear distinction from the conduction of current through metal, which
results from electron transport.
The conductance of a solution is proportional to and a good, though nonspecific indicator of the concentration of ionic species present, as well as their
charge and mobility. It is intuitive that higher concentrations of ions in a liquid
will conduct more current. Conductance derives from Ohms law, E = IR, and is
defined as the reciprocal of the electrical resistance of a solution.

C=1/R
where C is conductance (siemens)
R is resistance (ohms)
One can combine Ohms law with the definition of conductance, and the
resulting relationship is:

C=I/E
where I is current (amps)
E is potential (volts)
In practice, conductivity measurements involve determining the current through
a small portion of solution between two parallel electrode plates when an AC
voltage is applied. Conductivity values are related to the conductance (and thus
the resistance) of a solution by the physical dimensions --- area and length --- or
the cell constant of the measuring electrode. If the dimensions of the electrodes
are such that the area of the parallel plates is very large, it is reasonable that
more ions can reside between the plates, and more current can be measured.
The physical distance between the plates is also critical, as it effects the
strength of the electric field between the plates. If the plates are close and the
electric field is strong, ions will reach the plates more quickly than if the plates
are far apart and the electric field is weak. By using cells with defined plate

41

Instruction Manual

CON 6/TDS 6

areas and separation distances, it is possible to standardize or specify


conductance measurements.
Thus derives the term specific conductance or conductivity.
The relationship between conductance and specific conductivity is:

Specific Conductivity, S.C. = (Conductance) (cell constant, k)


= siemens * cm/cm2
= siemens/cm
where C is the conductance (siemens)
2
k is the cell constant, length/area or cm/cm
Since the basic unit of electrical resistance is the ohm, and conductance is the
reciprocal of resistance, the basic unit of conductance was originally designated
a mho ohm spelled backwards however, this term has been replace by the
term siemen. Conductivity measurements are reported as Siemens/cm, since
the value is measured between opposite faces of a cell of a known cubic
configuration. With most aqueous solutions, conductivity quantities are most
frequently measured in microSiemens per cm (S/cm) or milliSiemens per cm
(mS/cm).
The salinity value which ranges from 2 to 42 is a measure of all salts, not just
sodium chloride. This scale was originally devised for seawater, and is based
on seawater at 15 C having a conductivity equivalent to that of a potassium
chloride solution of a known concentration. This solution (0.44 molal) is defined
as having a salinity of 35 ppt.
The total dissolved solids scale approximate the ppm TDS in surface waters by
multiplying the conductivity of a sample by a factor, 0.66.

Conductivity and Temperature


Conductivity in aqueous solutions reflects the concentration, mobility, and
charge of the ions in solution. The conductivity of a solution will increase with
increasing temperature, as many phenomena influencing conductivity such as
solution viscosity are affected by temperature.
The relationship between conductivity and temperature is predictable and
usually expressed as relative % change per degree centigrade. This
temperature coefficient (% change per degree) depends on the composition of
the solution being measured. However, for most medium range salt
concentration in water, 2% per degree works well. Extremely pure water
exhibits a temperature coefficient of 5.2%, and concentrated salt solutions
about 1.5%.
Since temperature affects the conductivity measurement so profoundly, the
usual practice is to reference the conductivity to some standard temperature.
This is typical 25 C, but the CON 6 and TDS 6 meters permit the choice of 20
C or 25 C in the advance setup menu.
Both meters permit you to enter the temperature coefficient which best suits
your sample and use an ATC probe to automatically temperature compensate
back to the chosen reference temperature.

ADDENDUM 1: CALIBRATION TIPS

You only need one calibration for measurement throughout the entire range of
the meter. If a range was not calibrated, the meter automatically detects the
closest range calibrated and uses that calibration information. However, only
the ranges that were calibrated have maximum accuracy.

If you are measuring in ranges near to or greater than 20 mS (10 ppt), or near
to or lower than 100 S (50 ppm), calibrate the meter at least once a week to
get specified 1% F.S. accuracy.
If you are measuring in the mid-ranges and you washed the probe in deionized
water and stored it dry, calibrate the meter at least once a month.

Wet the probe for 10 minutes before calibrating or taking readings to saturate
the probe surface and minimize drift. If you make measurements at extreme
temperatures, calibrate the meter at least once a week.

You should only use the conductivity / TDS probe specified for these meters.
These probes have a built-in temperature sensor. If you use a different probe
without a temperature sensor, you must measure the solution temperature
separately and manually enter the solution temperature (see manual
temperature compensation section 5.2)

ADDENDUM 2: CALCULATING TDS CONVERSION


FACTOR

You can calibrate your meter using TDS calibration standard solutions. The
calibration standard only needs to give the TDS value at a standard
temperature such as 25 C. To determine the conductivity-to-TDS conversion
factor use the following formula:
Factor = Actual TDS Actual Conductivity @ 25 C

Definitions:

Actual TDS: Value from the solution bottle label or as a


standard you make using high purity water and precisely
weighed salts.

Actual Conductivity: Value measured using a properly


calibrated Conductivity/Temperature meter.

Both the Actual TDS and the Actual Conductivity values must be in the same
magnitude of units. For example, if the TDS value is in ppm the conductivity
value must be in S; if the TDS value is in ppt the conductivity value must be in
mS.

Check your factor by multiplying the conductivity reading by the factor in the
above formula. The result should be in TDS value.

CONDUCTIVITY CELL INSTRUCTION GUIDE


What is Conductivity?
Conductivity (or specifically electrolytic conductivity) is defined as the ability of a
substance to conduct electric current. It is the reciprocal of the more commonly
encountered term, resistivity. All substances possess conductivity to some degree, but the
amount varies widely, ranging from extremely low (insulators such as benzene, glass) to
very high (silver, copper, and metals in general). Most industrial interest is in the
conductivity measurement of liquids. Electric current will readily flow through some
liquids. The less ordered arrangement of the liquid molecules is not conducive to free
electron movement. Therefore, another sort of charged particle must serve this purpose if
any current is to flow at all. In solvents where electrical conductance occurs, notably in
water, ionization will provide the needed carriers. Ionization refers to the tendency of most
soluble inorganic compounds to partially or completely separate into two or more elemental
components, called ions, having opposite electrical charges. These charged particles, or
ions, act as current carriers producing electrolytic current flow. It is the physical
characteristics of the carriers as much as that of the medium that determines electrical
conductance of a solution. These solutions have conductivities approximately midway
between insulators and metallic conductors. This conductivity can be measured quite easily
by electronic means, and this offers a simple test which can tell much about the quality of
the water, or the makeup of the solution. A broad line of conductivity equipment is
available to measure liquids ranging from ultra-pure water (low conductivity) to
concentrated chemical streams (high).

Units of Conductivity
The units of measurement used to describe conductivity and resistivity are quite
fundamental and are frequently misused. Once the units are known, various waters can be
quantitatively described.
The basic unit of resistance is the familiar ohm. Conductance is the reciprocal of resistance,
and its basic unit is the siemens, formerly called mho. In discussions of bulk material, it is
convenient to talk of its specific conductance, now commonly called its conductivity. This
is the conductance as measured between the opposite faces of a 1-cm cube of the material.
This measurement has units of siemens/cm. The units microsiemens/cm (S/cm) and
millisiemens/cm (mS/cm) are most commonly used to describe the conductivity of aqueous
solutions. The corresponding terms for specific resistance (or resistivity) are ohm-cm (cm), megaohm-cm (M -cm) and kilohm-cm (k -cm).
Users of ultra-pure water prefer to use resistivity units of -cm, because measurement in
these units tends to spread the scale out in the range of interest. These same users
frequently use k -cm when dealing with less pure water such as tap water. Others, however,
use the units of S/cm and mS/cm when dealing with any stream from quite pure to very
concentrated chemical solutions. In these applications, the use of conductivity has the
advantage of an almost direct relationship with impurities, especially at low concentration.

Hence, a rising conductivity reading shows increasing impurities, or a generally increasing


concentration in the case of a chemical stream (with some exceptions in concentrated
solutions). See Table 1 for a comparison of resistance and conductivity.

These metal contacts serve as sensing elements and are placed at a fixed distance apart to
make contact with a solution whose conductivity is to be determined. The length between
the sensing elements, as well as the surface area of the metallic piece, determine the
electrode cell constant, defined as length/area. The cell constant is a critical parameter
affecting the conductance value produced by the cell and handled by the electronic
circuitry.
A cell constant of 1.0 will produce a conductance reading approximately equal to the
solution conductivity. For solutions of low conductivity, the sensing electrodes can be
placed closer together, reducing the length between them and producing cell constants of
0.1 or 0.01. This will raise the conductance reading by a factor of 10 to 100 to offset the
low solution conductivity and give a better signal to the conductivity meter. On the other
hand, the sensing electrodes can be placed farther apart to create cell constants of 10 or 100

for use in highly conductive solutions. This also produces a conductance acceptable to the
meter by reducing the conductance reading by a factor of 10 to 100.
In order to produce a measuring signal acceptable to the conductivity meter, it is highly
important that the user choose a conductivity electrode with a cell constant appropriate for
his sample. The table below lists the optimum conductivity range for cells with different
cell constants.

Operating Instructions
Before use, soak the conductivity electrode in distilled or deionized water for 5 to 10
minutes. Connect the conductivity cell to the conductivity meter and follow the meter
manual instructions for standardizing the cell for use at a given temperature. Rinse the
conductivity cell sensing elements with distilled or deionized water between samples. Note:
Each conductivity cell has a cell constant which is predetermined by the manufacturer and
often indicated on the electrode upon shipment. The cell constant may change slightly
during shipping and storage and should be remeasured on the user's conductivity meter
before initial use. Measure the cell constant according to the meter instruction manual.
Because temperature has a large effect on conductivity measurements allow probe to sit in
solution until a stable temperature reading is obtained before taking measurements.

Cleaning
The single most important requirement of accurate and reproducible results in conductivity
measurement is a clean cell. A dirty cell will contaminate the solution and cause the
conductivity to change. Grease, oil, fingerprints, and other contaminants on the sensing
elements can cause erroneous measurements and sporadic responses.

Storage
It is best to store cells so that the electrodes are immersed in deionized water. Any cell that
has been stored dry should be soaked in distilled water for 5 to 10 minutes before use to
assure complete wetting of the electrodes.
Some platinum conductivity cells are coated with platinum black before calibration. This
coating is extremely important to cell operation, especially in solutions of high
conductivity. Electrodes are platinized to avoid errors due to polarization. Cells should be
inspected periodically and after each cleaning. If the black coating appears to be wearing or

flaking off the electrodes or if the cell constant has changed by 50%, the cell should be
cleaned and the electrodes replatinized.

Cleaning Methods
1. For most applications, hot water with domestic cleaning detergent can be used for
cleaning.
2. For lime and other hydroxide containing solutions, clean with a 5-10% solution of
hydrochloric acid.
3. For solutions containing organic fouling agents (fats, oils, etc.), clean probe with
acetone.
4. For algae and bacteria containing solutions, clean probe with a bleach containing
liquid.
Clean cells by dipping or filling the cell with cleaning solution and agitating for two or
three minutes. When a stronger cleaning solution is required, try concentrated hydrochloric
acid mixed into 50% isopropanol. Rinse the cell several times with distilled or deionized
water and remeasure the cell constant before use.

Replatinizing
The platinum electrode should first be cleaned thoroughly in aqua regia being careful not to
dissolve the platinum. If the cell remains too long in aqua regia the platinum elements will
dissolve completely. Prepare a solution of 0.025 N HCl with 3% chloroplatinic acid
(H2PtCl6) and 0.025% lead acetate. Connect the cell to a rheostat or 3-4 V battery to which
a variable resistor has been connected. Immerse cell in the chloroplatinic acid solution and
electrolyze at 10 mA/cm for 10-15 minutes. Reverse the polarity to the cell every 30
seconds until both electrodes are covered with a thin black layer. Disconnect the cell and
save the platinizing solution. It may be reused many times and should not be discarded as it
is expensive to make. Rinse the electrode with tap water for 1 to 2 minutes, followed by
distilled or deionized water. Store in distilled or deionized water until ready for use.

Warning
Electrical Work: All electrical work should be
performed by a qualified electrician in
accordance with the latest edition of the National
Electrical Code, local codes and regulations.
Warning
Shock Hazard: A faulty motor or wiring can cause
electrical shock that could be fatal, whether
touched directly or conducted through standing
water. For this reason, proper grounding of the
pump to the power supplys grounding terminal
is required for safe installation and operation.
In all installations, the above-ground metal
plumbing should be connected to the power
supply ground as described in Article 250-80 of
the National Electrical Code.

1. General
The CR range is based on the inline multistage centrifugal pump
first pioneered by Grundfos. CR is available in four basic
materials and over one million configurations. CR is suitable for
pumping water and water-like liquids in industry, petrochemical,
water treatment, commercial buildings, and many other
applications. Some of CRs outstanding characteristics are:

superior efficiency

reliability

ease of maintenance

compact size and small footprint

quiet operation.

Examine the components carefully to make sure no damage has


occurred to the pump during shipment. Care should be taken to
ensure the pump is NOT dropped or mishandled.

2.1 Ensure you have the right pump


Read the pump nameplate to make sure that it is the one you
ordered.

CR
Centrifugal pump with standard cast iron and 304 stainless
steel construction

CRI
Centrifugal pump; all parts in contact with water are 304
stainless steel construction

CRN
Centrifugal pump; all parts in contact with water are 316
stainless steel construction

CRT
Centrifugal pump; all parts in contact with water are titanium
construction

CRE
Centrifugal pump with a Grundfos MLE VFD motor attached.

2.2 Checking the condition of the pump


The shipping carton in which your pump arrived is specially
designed around your pump during production to prevent damage
during shipment. As a precaution, the pump should remain in the
carton until you are ready to install it. Examine the pump for any
damage that may have occurred during shipping. Examine any
other parts of the shipment as well for any visible damage.
Note: If the pump is shipped as a complete unit (motor attached
to pump end), the position of the coupling (that connects the
pump shaft to the motor shaft) is set at factory specifications. No
adjustment is required. If the unit is delivered as a pump end only,
follow the adjustment procedures in the section on replacing the
motor.
Pump without Motor (CR(I)(N) 1s, 1, 3, 5, 10, 15, and 20 Only):
If you purchased a pump without a motor, the shaft seal has been
set by the factory. Do not loosen the three set screws on the shaft
seal when attaching the motor.
Pump without Motor (CR(N) 32, 45, 64, 90, 120, and 150 Only):
If you purchased a pump without a motor, you must install the
seal. The seal is protected in its own sub boxing within the pump
packaging crate. To protect the shaft and bearings during
shipment, a shaft holder protective device is used. This device
must be removed prior to installation of the seal. Read the seal
installation instructions which are included in the pump package.

2.3 Verifying electrical requirements


Verification of the electrical supply should be made to be certain
the voltage, phase and frequency match that of the pump motor.
The proper operating voltage and other electrical information can
be found on the motor nameplate. These motors are designed to
run on 10 % / + 10 % of the nameplate-rated voltage. For dualvoltage motors, the motor should be internally connected to
operate on the voltage closest to the 10% rating, i.e., a 208
voltage motor wired per the 208 volt connection diagram. The
wiring connection diagram can be found on either a plate
attached to the motor or on a diagram inside the terminal box
cover. If voltage variations are larger than 10 % / + 10 %, do not
operate the pump.

* In August 2003 the NEMA pump code was


discontinued for all material numbers created
by GRUNDFOS manufacturing companies in
North America. The NEMA version pump code will
still remain in effect for existing material numbers.
NEMA version pumps built in North America after
this change will have either an A or U as the pump
version code depending on the date the material
number was created.

** If a pump incorporates more than two pump


versions, the code for the pump version is X.
X also indicates special pump versions not
listed above.

6. Installing the pump


Warning

TM04 3906 0409

Do not energize pump until properly installed.

6.1 Pump location


The pump should be located in a dry, well-ventilated area which is
not subject to freezing or extreme variation in temperature.
Care must be taken to ensure the pump is mounted at least
6 inches (150 mm) clear of any obstruction or hot surfaces.
The motor requires an adequate air supply to prevent overheating
and adequate vertical space to remove the motor for repair.
For open systems requiring suction lift the pump should be
located as close to the water source as possible to reduce piping
losses.

Fig. 4

Pump position

The pump can be installed vertically or horizontally; see fig. 4.


Ensure that an adequate supply of cool air reaches the motor
cooling fan. The motor must never fall below the horizontal plane.
Arrows on the pump base show the direction of flow of liquid
through the pump.

6.2 Foundation
Concrete or similar foundation material should be used to provide
a secure, stable mounting base for the pump.
See table of bolt hole center line dimensions for the various pump
types.
Secure the pump to the foundation using all four bolts and shim
pump base to assure the pump is vertical and all four pads on the
base are properly supported (uneven surfaces can result in pump
base breakage when mounting bolts are tightened).

To minimize possible noise from the pump, it is advisable to fit


expansion joints on either side of the pump and anti-vibration
mountings between the foundation and the pump.
Note: Care should be taken to ensure that the vent plug is
located in the uppermost position.
Isolating valves should be fitted either side of the pump to avoid
draining the system if the pump needs to be cleaned, repaired or
replaced.

6.5 Minimum suction pipe sizes

6.3 Pump mounting

The following recommended suction pipe sizes are the smallest


sizes which should be used with any specific CR pump type.

Warning
CR, CRI, CRN pumps are shipped with covered
suction and discharge. The covers must be
removed before the final pipe flange to pump
connections are made.

The suction pipe size should be verified with each installation to


ensure good pipe practices are being observed and excess
friction losses are not encountered.
High temperatures may require larger diameter pipes to reduce
friction and improve NPHSA.

6.4 Suction pipe


The suction pipe should be adequately sized and run as straight and
short as possible to keep friction losses to a minimum (minimum of
four pipe diameters straight run prior to the suction flange). Avoid
using unnecessary fittings, valves or accessory items. Butterfly or
gate valves should only be used in the suction line when it is
necessary to isolate a pump because of a flooded suction condition.
This would occur if the water source is above the pump; see fig. 5
and fig. 6. Flush piping prior to pump installation to remove loose
debris.

6.6 Discharge piping


It is suggested that a check valve and isolation valve be installed
in the discharge pipe.
Pipe, valves and fittings should be at least the same diameter as
the discharge pipe or sized in accordance with good piping
practices to reduce excessive fluid velocities and pipe friction
losses.

Before the pump is installed it is recommended that the discharge


piping be pressure checked to at least the maximum pressure the
pump is capable of generating or as required by codes or local
regulations.

Whenever possible, avoid high pressure loss fittings, such as


elbows or branch tees directly on either side of the pump. The
piping should be adequately supported to reduce thermal and
mechanical stresses on the pump.
Good installation practice recommends the system be thoroughly
cleaned and flushed of all foreign materials and sediment prior to
pump installation. Furthermore, the pump should never be
installed at the lowest point of the system due to the natural
accumulation of dirt and sediment. If there is excessive sediment
or suspended particles present, it is advised a strainer or filter be
used. Grundfos recommends that pressure gauges be installed
on inlet and discharge flanges or in pipes to check pump and
system performance.

6.7 Bypass orifice

6.8 Nozzle loads

A bypass should be installed in the discharge pipe if there is any


possibility the pump may operate against a closed valve in the
discharge line. Flow through the pump is required to ensure
adequate cooling and lubrication of the pump is maintained. See
6.9 Minimum continuous duty flow rates for minimum flow rates.

If not all loads reach the maximum permissible value stated in the
forces and moments tables included here with fig. 10, one of
these values may exceed the normal limit. Contact Grundfos for
further information.

Elbows should be a minimum of 12 from the orifice discharge to


prevent erosion.

6.10 Check valves


A check valve may be required on the discharge side of the pump
to prevent the pumps inlet pressure from being exceeded.
For example, if a pump with no check valve is stopped because
there is no demand on the system (all valves are closed), the high
system pressure on the discharge side of the pump will find its
way back to the inlet of the pump.
If the system pressure is greater than the pumps maximum inlet
pressure rating, the limits of the pump will be exceeded and a
check valve needs to be fitted on the discharge side of the pump
to prevent this condition. This is especially critical for CRN-SF
applications because of the very high discharge pressures
involved. As a result, most CRN-SF installations require a check
valve on the discharge piping.

6.12 Conditions/Reservations

It may sometimes be necessary to stop the flow through a pump


during operation.

The listed times are subject to the following conditions/


reservations:

At shut-off, the power to the pump is transferred to the pumped


liquid as head, causing a temperature rise in the liquid.

No exchange of heat with the surrounding.

The result is risk of excess heating of and consequent damage to


the pump. The risk depends on the temperature of the pumped
liquid and for how long the pump is operating without flow; see
the following temperature rise chart.

The pumped liquid is water with a specific heat of 1.0


(4.18 kJ/kg C).

Pump parts (chambers, impellers and shaft) have the same


thermal capacity as water.

The water in the base and the pump head is not included.

Btu/

lb.

These reservations should give sufficient safety margin against


excessive temperature rise.
The maximum temperature must not exceed the pump maximum
rating.

6.17 Motor protection

6.13 Electrical
Warning

6.17.1 Single-Phase Motors

The safe operation of this pump requires that it


be grounded in accordance with the national
electrical code and local governing codes or
regulations. Connect the ground wire to the
grounding screw in the terminal box and then to
the ACCEPTABLE grounding point. All electrical
work should be performed by a qualified
electrician in accordance with the latest edition
of the National Electrical Code, local codes and
regulations.

With the exception of 10 HP motors which require external


protection, single-phase CR pumps are equipped with multivoltage, squirrel-cage induction motors with built-in thermal
protection.

6.14 Motor
Grundfos CR pumps are supplied with heavy-duty 2-pole (3600
rpm nominal), ODP or TEFC, NEMA C frame motors selected to
our rigid specifications.
Motors with other enclosure types and for other voltages and
frequencies are available on a special-order basis.
CRN-SF pumps are supplied with an IEC (metric) type motor with
a reverse thrust bearing.
If you are replacing the pumping unit, but are using a motor
previously used on another CR pump, be sure to read
10. Replacing the motor for proper adjustment of the coupling
height.

6.17.2 Three-Phase Motors


CR pumps with three-phase motors must be used with the proper
size and type of motor-starter to ensure the motor is protected
against damage from low voltage, phase failure, current
imbalance and overloads.
A properly sized starter with manual reset and ambientcompensated extra quick trip in all three legs should be used. The
overload should be sized and adjusted to the full-load current
rating of the motor. Under no circumstances should the overloads
be set to a higher value than the full load current shown on the
motor nameplate. This will void the warranty.
Overloads for auto transformers and resistant starters should be
sized in accordance with the recommendations of the
manufacturer.
Three phase MLE motors (CRE-Pumps) require only fuses as a
circuit breaker. They do not require a motor starter. Check for
phase imbalance (worksheet is provided; see p. 23).
Note: Standard allowable phase imbalance difference is 5%.
6.17.3 CRN-SF

The motor terminal box can be turned to any of four positions in


steps of 90.
To rotate the terminal box, remove the four bolts securing the
motor to the pump but do not remove the shaft coupling. Turn the
motor to the desired location; replace and securely tighten the
four bolts; see fig. 11.

The CRN-SF is typically operated in series with a feed pump.


Because the maximum allowable inlet pressure of the CRN-SF
increases from 73 psi (when pump is off and during start-up) to
365 psi (during operation), a control device must be used to start
the CRN-SF pump one second before the feed pump starts.
Similarly, the CRN-SF must stop one second after the feed pump
stops. See CRN-SF startup timeline below.

Wire sizes should be based on the current carrying properties of


a conductor as required by the latest edition of the National
Electrical Code or local regulations. Direct on line (D.O.L.)
starting is approved due to the extremely fast run-up time of the
motor and the low moment of inertia of the pump and motor. If
D.O.L. starting is not acceptable and reduced starting current is
required, an auto transformer, resistant starter or soft start should
be used. It is suggested that a fused disconnect be used for each
pump where service and standby pumps are installed.

Grundfos.bk Page 15 Wednesday, March 18, 2009 10:38 AM

8. Switch on the power and again check for proper motor


rotation. Once rotation has been verified, switch off power
again. Do not attempt to reinstall the coupling guards with the
motor energized. Replace the coupling guard if the rotation is
correct. After guards are in place the power can be reapplied.
Note: CR, CRI, CRN 1s to 5: For these pumps, it is advisable
to open the bypass valve during start-up; see fig. 13. The
bypass valve connects the suction and discharge sides of the
pump, thus making the filling procedure easier. When the
operation is stable, the bypass valve must be closed.

7.2 Operating Parameters


CR multi-stage centrifugal pumps installed in accordance with
these instructions and sized for correct performance will operate
efficiently and provide years of service. The pumps are waterlubricated and do not require any external lubrication or
inspection. The motors may require periodic lubrication as noted
in 9. Maintaining the pumps motor.
Under no circumstances should the pump be operated for any
prolonged periods of time without flow through the pump. This
can result in motor and pump damage due to overheating. A
properly sized relief valve should be installed to allow sufficient
water to circulate through the pump to provide adequate cooling
and lubrication of the pump bearings and seals.

TM04 3920 0409

Vent
Plug

Do not start the pump before priming or venting


the pump; see fig. 15. Never operate the pump
dry.

Fig. 15 Vent plug


Gradually open the isolation valve in the suction line until a
steady stream of airless water runs out the priming port. Close
the plug and securely tighten. Completely open the isolation
valves.
In open systems where the water level is below the pump inlet,
the suction pipe and pump must be filled and vented of air before
starting the pump. Close the discharge isolation valve and
remove the priming plug. Pour water through the priming hole
until the suction pipe and pump are completely filled with water. If
the suction pipe does not slope downward from the pump toward
the water level, the air must be purged while being filled. Replace
the priming plug and securely tighten. For pumps with Cool-Top,
see 14. Startup for Cool-Top.
Follow these steps:
1. Switch power off.
2. Check to make sure the pump has been filled and vented.
3. Remove the coupling guard and rotate the pump shaft by hand
to be certain it turns freely.
4. Verify that the electrical connections are in accordance with
the wiring diagram on the motor.
5. Switch the power on and observe the direction of rotation.
When viewed from the top, the pump should rotate counterclockwise (clockwise for CRN-SF).
6. To reverse the direction of rotation, first switch OFF the supply
power.
7. On three-phase motors, interchange any two power leads at
the load side of the starter. On single-phase motors, see
connection diagram on nameplate. Change wiring as required.

7.3 Pump Cycling


Pump cycling should be checked to ensure the pump is not
starting more than the following.
Grundfos ML motors:

200 times per hour on 1/3 to 5 hp models

100 times per hour on 7 1/2 to 15 hp models

40 times per hour on 20 to 30 hp models.

Baldor motors:

20 times per hour on 1/3 to 5 hp models

15 times per hour on 7 1/2 to 15 hp models

10 times per hour on 20 to 100 hp models.

Rapid cycling is a major cause of premature motor failure due to


increased heat build-up in the motor. If necessary, adjust controls
to reduce the frequency of starts and stops.

7.4 Boiler-feed installations


If the pump is being used as a boiler-feed pump, make sure the
pump is capable of supplying sufficient water throughout its entire
evaporation and pressure ranges. Where modulating control
valves are used, a bypass around the pump must be installed to
ensure pump lubrication (see Minimum Continuous Duty Flow
Rates).

7.5 Freeze Protection


If the pump is installed in an area where freezing could occur,
the pump and system should be drained during freezing
temperatures to avoid damage. To drain the pump, close the
isolation valves, remove the priming plug and drain plug at the
base of the pump. Do not replace the plugs until the pump is to be
used again. Always replace the drain plug with the original or
exact replacement. Do not replace with a standard plug. Internal
recirculation will occur, reducing the output pressure and flow.

8. Preventative pump maintenance

9.1 Motor Inspection

At regular intervals depending on the conditions and time of


operation, the following checks should be made:

Inspect the motor at regular intervals, approximately every 500


hours of operation or every three months, whichever occurs first.
Keep the motor clean and the ventilation openings clear.

1. Pump meets required performance and is operating smoothly


and quietly.
2. There are no leaks, particularly at the shaft seal.
3. The motor is not overheating.
4. Remove and clean all strainers or filters in the system.
5. Verify the tripping of the motor overload protection.
6. Check the operation of all controls. Check unit control cycling
twice and adjust, if necessary.
7. If the pump is not operated for unusually long periods, the unit
should be maintained in accordance with these instructions. In
addition, if the pump is not drained, the pump shaft should be
manually rotated or run for short periods of time at monthly
intervals.
8. To extend the pump life in severe duty applications, consider
performing one of the following actions:
Drain the pump after each use.
Flush the pump, through system, with water or other fluid
that is compatible with the pump materials and process
liquid.
Disassemble the pump liquid components and thoroughly
rinse or wash them with water or other fluid that is
compatible with the pump materials and process liquid.
If the pump fails to operate or there is a loss of performance, refer
to Section 15. Diagnosing specific problems.

9. Maintaining the pumps motor


Warning
Do not touch electrical connections before you
first ensure that power has been disconnected.
Electrical shock can cause serious or fatal injury.
Only qualified personnel should attempt
installation, operation, and maintenance of this
equipment.

The following steps should be performed at each inspection:


1. Check that the motor is clean. Check that the interior and
exterior of the motor is free of dirt, oil, grease, water, etc. Oily
vapor, paper, pulp, textile lint, etc. can accumulate and block
motor ventilation. If the motor is not properly ventilated,
overheating can occur and cause early motor failure.
2. Use an Ohmmeter (Megger) periodically to ensure that the
integrity of the winding insulation has been maintained.
Record the Ohmmeter readings. Immediately investigate any
significant drop in insulation resistance.
3. Check all electrical connectors to be sure that they are tight.

9.2 Motor Lubrication


Electric motors are pre-lubricated at the factory and do not
require additional lubrication at start-up. Motors without external
grease fittings have sealed bearings that cannot be re-lubricated.
Motors with grease fittings should only be lubricated with
approved types of grease. Do not over-grease the bearings.
Over-greasing will cause increased bearing heat and can result in
bearing/motor failure. Do not mix petroleum grease and silicon
grease in motor bearings.
Bearing grease will lose its lubricating ability over time, not
suddenly. The lubricating ability of a grease (over time) depends
primarily on the type of grease, the size of the bearings, the
speed at which the bearings operate and the severity of the
operating conditions.
Good results can be obtained if the following recommendations
are used in your maintenance program. It should also be noted
that pumps with more stages, pumps running to the left of the
performance curve, and certain pump ranges may have higher
thrust loads. Pumps with high thrust loads should be greased
according to the next service interval level.

9.5 Lubrication Procedure

Caution

To avoid damage to motor bearings, grease must


be kept free of dirt. For an extremely dirty
environment, contact Grundfos, the motor
manufacturer, or an authorized service center for
additional information.
Mixing dissimilar grease is not recommended.

1. Clean all grease fittings. If the motor does not have grease
fittings, the bearing is sealed and cannot be greased
externally.
2. If the motor is equipped with a grease outlet plug, remove it.
This will allow the old grease to be displaced by the new
grease. If the motor is stopped, add the recommended amount
of grease. If the motor is to be greased while running, a
slightly greater quantity of grease will have to be added.
Note: If new grease does not appear at the shaft hole or
grease outlet plug, the outlet passage may be blocked. At the
next service interval the bearings must be repacked.

10.1 Disassembly
For disassembly, proceed as follows:
1. Turn off and lock out power supply. The power supply wiring
can now be safely disconnected from the motor wires.
Remove the coupling guards. Note: CR 1s, 1, 3, 5, 10, 15, and
20: do not loosen the three shaft seal securing allen screws.
2. Using the proper metric Allen wrench, loosen the four cap
screws in the coupling. Completely remove coupling halves.
On CR1s-CR20, the shaft pin can be left in the pump shaft.
CR(N)32, 45, 64, 90, 120, and 150 do not have a shaft pin.
3. With the correct size wrench, loosen and remove the four bolts
which hold the motor to the pump end.
4. Lift the motor straight up until the shaft has cleared the motor
stool.

10.2 Assembly
For assembly, proceed as follows:
1. Remove key from motor shaft, if present, and discard.

3. Add grease SLOWLY taking approximately one minute until


new grease appears at the shaft hole in the endplate or grease
outlet plug. Never add more than 1-1/2 times the amount of
grease shown in the lubrication schedule.

2. Thoroughly clean the surfaces of the motor and pump end


mounting flange. The motor and shaft must be clean of all oil/
grease and other contaminants where the coupling attaches.
Set the motor on the pump end.

4. For motors equipped with a grease outlet plug, let the motor
run for 20 minutes before replacing the plug.

3. Place the terminal box in the desired position by rotating the


motor.
4. Insert the mounting bolts, then diagonally and evenly tighten:

10. Replacing the motor

for 3/8 bolts (1/2 to 2 hp), torque to 17 ft-lb

If the motor is damaged due to bearing failure, burning or


electrical failure, the following instructions detail how to remove
the motor for replacement.

for 1/2 bolts (3 to 40 hp) torque to 30 ft-lb

Caution

It must be emphasized that motors used on CR


pumps are specifically selected to our rigid
specifications. Replacement motors must be of
the same frame size, should be equipped with
the same or better bearings and have the same
service factor. Failure to follow these
recommendations may result in premature motor
failure.

for 5/8 bolts (50 - 100 hp) torque to 59 ft-lb


follow instructions for particular pump model in sections
10.2.1 Torque specifications for CR 1s, 1, 3, and 5 through

11. Parts List


For each CR pump model Grundfos offers an extensive Parts List
and diagram of part used in that pump and is recommended to
have on hand for future maintenance. In addition, the listings also
provide information about prepackaged Service Kits for those
pump components most likely to exhibit wear over time, as well
as the complete Impeller Stack needed to replace the guts of
each model. These Parts Lists are available separately from the
Grundfos literature warehouse or as a set with extensive service
instructions in the Grundfos CR Service Manuals (for a small
charge).

7. Check to see that the gaps between the coupling halves are
equal. Loosen and readjust, if necessary.
8. Be certain the pump shaft can be rotated by hand. If the shaft
cannot be rotated or it binds, disassemble and check for
misalignment.
9. Prime the pump.
10.Follow the wiring diagram on the motor label for the correct
motor wiring combination which matches your supply voltage.
Once this has been confirmed, reconnect the power supply
wiring to the motor.
11.Check the direction of rotation, by bump-starting the motor.
Rotation must be left to right (counter-clockwise) when looking
directly at the coupling.

13. Preliminary electrical tests


Warning

TM04 3908 0409

When working with electrical circuits, use caution


to avoid electrical shock. It is recommended that
rubber gloves and boots be worn, and metal
terminal boxes and motors are grounded before
any work is done. For your protection, always
disconnect the pump from its power source
before handling.

13.1 Supply voltage


13.1.1 How to measure the supply voltage
Use a voltmeter, (set to the proper scale) measure the voltage at
the pump terminal box or starter.
On single-phase units, measure between power leads L1 and L2
(or L1 and N for 115 volt units).
On three-phase units, measure between:
Power leads L1 and L2

Fig. 25 Measuring current


13.2.2 What the current measurement means
If the amp draw exceeds the listed service factor amps (SFA) or if
the current imbalance is greater than 5% between each leg on
three-phase units, check the following:
Burned contacts on motor starter.

Power leads L2 and L3

Loose terminals in starter or terminal box or possible wire


defect.

Power leads L3 and L1

Too high or too low supply voltage.


Motor windings are shorted or grounded. Check winding and
insulation resistances.
Pump is damaged causing a motor overload.

TM04 3911 0409

13.3 Insulation resistance

Fig. 24 Measuring supply voltage

13.3.1 How to measure the insulation resistance


Turn off power and disconnect the supply power leads in the
pump terminal box. Using an ohm or mega ohm meter, set the
scale selector to Rx 100K and zero adjust the meter.
Measure and record the resistance between each of the terminals
and ground.

13.1.2 What the supply voltage measurement means


When the motor is under load, the voltage should be within 10%
of the nameplate voltage. Larger voltage variation may cause
winding damage.
Large variations in the voltage indicate a poor electrical supply
and the pump should not be operated until these variations have
been corrected.
If the voltage constantly remains high or low, the motor should be
changed to the correct supply voltage.
TM04 3907 0409

13.2 Current measurement


13.2.1 How to measure the current
Use an ammeter (set on the proper scale) to measure the current
on each power lead at the terminal box or starter. See the motor
nameplate for amp draw information.
Current should be measured when the pump is operating at
constant discharge pressure.

Fig. 26 Measuring insulation resistance


13.3.2 What the insulation resistance means
Motors of all hp, voltage, phase and cycle duties have the same
value of insulation resistance. Resistance values for new motors
must exceed 1,000,000 ohms. If they do not, motor should be
repaired or replaced.

14. Startup for Cool-Top


Caution

Do not start the pump until it has been filled with liquid and vented.
Warning
Pay attention to the direction of the vent hole and take care to ensure that the escaping liquid does not cause injury
to persons or damage to the motor or other components. In hot-liquid installations, special attention should be
paid to the risk of injury caused by scalding hot liquid. It is recommended to connect a drain pipe to the 1/2" air
vent in order to lead the hot water/steam to a safe place.

Step

Action

TM02 4151 5001

Note: The air-cooled top should only be started up with cold


liquid. Close the isolation valve on the discharge side and open
the isolation valve on the suction side of the pump.

TM02 4153 1503

Remove the priming plug from the air-cooled chamber (2) and
slowly fill the chamber with liquid.
When the chamber is completely filled with liquid, replace the
priming plug and tighten securely.

TM02 5907 4002

Open the isolation valve on the discharge side of the pump.


Valve may have to be partially closed when pump is started if
no back pressure is present (i.e. boiler not up to pressure).

Start the pump and check the direction of rotation.

TM01 41406 3702


TM01 1405 4497

See the correct rotation of the pump on the motor fan cover.
If the direction of rotation is wrong, interchange any two of the
incoming supply wires.
After 3 to 5 minutes, the air vent has been filled with liquid.
Note: During startup of a cold pump with hot liquid, it is normal
that a few drops of liquid are leaking from the sleeve.

15. Diagnosing specific problems


Problem
The pump does not run.

The pump runs but at reduced


capacity or does not deliver water.

22

Possible cause

Remedy

1.

No power at motor.

Check voltage at motor terminal box. If no voltage at motor, check


feeder panel for tripped circuits and reset circuit.

2.

Fuses are blown or circuit


breakers are tripped.

Turn off power and remove fuses. Check for continuity with
ohmmeter. Replace blown fuses or reset circuit breaker. If new
fuses blow or circuit breaker trips, the electrical installation, motor
and wires must be checked.

3.

Motor starter overloads are burned


or have tripped out.

Check for voltage on line and load side of starter. Replace burned
heaters or reset. Inspect starter for other damage. If heater trips
again, check the supply voltage and starter holding coil.

4.

Starter does not energize.

Energize control circuit and check for voltage at the holding coil. If
no voltage, check control circuit fuses. If voltage, check holding
coil for shorts. Replace bad coil.

5.

Defective controls.

Check all safety and pressure switches for operation. Inspect


contacts in control devices. Replace worn or defective parts or
controls.

6.

Motor is defective.

Turn off power and disconnect wiring. Measure the lead to lead
resistances with ohmmeter (RX-1). Measure lead to ground values
with ohmmeter (RX-100K). Record measured values. If an open or
grounded winding is found, remove motor and repair or replace.

7.

Defective capacitor
(single-phase motors).

Turn off power and discharge capacitor. Check with ohmmeter (RX-100K). When the meter is connected to the capacitor, the needle should jump towards 0 ohms and slowly drift
back to infinity (h). Replace if defective.

8.

Pump is bound.

Turn off power and manually rotate pump shaft. If shaft does not
rotate easily, check coupling setting and adjust as necessary. If
shaft rotation is still tight, remove pump and inspect. Disassemble
and repair.

1.

Wrong rotation.

Check wiring for proper connections. Correct wiring.

2.

Turn pump off, close isolation valve(s), remove priming plug.


Pump is not primed or is airbound. Check fluid level. Refill the pump, replace plug and start the pump.
Long suction lines must be filled before starting the pump.

3.

Strainers, check or foot valves are


clogged.

Remove strainer, screen or valve and inspect. Clean and replace.


Reprime pump.

4.

Suction lift too large.

Install compound pressure gauge at the suction side of the pump.


Start pump and compare reading to performance data. Reduce
suction lift by lowering pump, increase suction line size or
removing high friction loss devices.

5.

Suction and/or discharge piping


leaks.

Pump spins backwards when turned off. Air in suction pipe.


Suction pipe, valves and fittings must be airtight. Repair any leaks
and retighten all loose fittings.

6.

Pump worn.

Install pressure gauge, start pump, gradually close the discharge


valve and read pressure at shutoff. Convert measured pressure (in
psi) to head (in feet): (Measured psi x 2.31 ft/psi = ___ ft). Refer to
the specific pump curve for shutoff head for that pump model. If
head is close to curve, pump is probably OK. If not, remove pump
and inspect.

7.

Pump impeller or guide vane is


clogged.

Disassemble and inspect pump passageways. Remove any


foreign materials found.

8.

Incorrect drain plug is installed.

If the proper drain plug is replaced with a standard plug, water will
recirculate internally. Replace with proper plug.

9.

Improper coupling setting.

Check/reset the coupling; see page 18.

Grundfos.bk Page 23 Wednesday, March 18, 2009 10:38 AM

Problem

Pump cycles too much

Fuses blow or circuit breakers or


overload relays trip

Possible cause

Remedy

1.

Pressure switch is not


properly adjusted or is
defective.

Check pressure setting on switch and operation. Check voltage


across closed contacts. Readjust switch or replace if defective.

2.

Level control is not properly


adjusted or is defective.

Check setting and operation. Readjust setting (refer to level control


manufacturers data). Replace if defective.

3.

Insufficient air charging or


leaking tank or piping.

Pump air into tank or diaphragm chamber. Check diaphragm for


leak. Check tank and piping for leaks with soap and water solution.
Check air to water volume. Repair as necessary.

4.

Tank is too small.

Check tank size and air volume in tank. Tank volume should be
approximately 10 gallons for each gpm of pump capacity. The
normal air volume is 2/3 of the total tank volume at the pump cut-in
pressure. Replace tank with one of correct size.

5.

Pump is oversized.

Install pressure gauges on or near pump suction and discharge


ports. Start and run pump under normal conditions, record gauge
readings. Convert psi to feet (Measured psi x 2.31 ft/psi = ____ ft)
Refer to the specific pump curve for that model, ensure that total
head is sufficient to limit pump delivery within its design flow range.
Throttle pump discharge flow if necessary.

1.

Tank is too small.

Check voltage at starter panel and motor. If voltage varies more


than 10 % / + 10 %, contact power company. Check wire sizing.

2.

Motor overloads are set too low.

Cycle pump and measure amperage. Increase heater size or


adjust trip setting to a maximum of motor nameplate (full load)
current.

3.

Three-phased current is
imbalanced.

Check current draw on each lead to the motor. Must be within


5 % / + 5 %. If not, check motor and wiring. Rotating all leads may
eliminate this problem.

4.

Motor is shorted or grounded.

Turn off power and disconnect wiring. Measure the lead-to-lead


resistance with an ohmmeter (RX-1). Measure lead-to-ground
values with an ohmmeter (RX-100K) or a megaohm meter. Record
values. If an open or grounded winding is found, remove the motor,
repair and/or replace.

5.

Wiring or connections are faulty.

Check proper wiring and loose terminals. Tighten loose terminals.


Replace damaged wire.

6.

Pump is bound.

Turn off power and manually rotate pump shaft. If shaft does not
rotate easily, check coupling setting and adjust as necessary. If
shaft rotation is still tight, remove pump and inspect. Disassemble
and repair.

7.

Defective capacitor
(single-phase motors).

Turn off power and discharge capacitor. Check with ohmmeter


(RX-100K). When the meter is connected to the capacitor, the
needle should jump towards 0 ohms and slowly drift back to infinity
(h). Replace if defective.

Motor overloads at higher ambient


temperature than motor.

Use a thermometer to check the ambient temperature near the


overloads and motor. Record these values. If ambient temperature
at motor is lower than at overloads, especially where temperature
at overloads is above +104 F (+40 C), ambient-compensated
heaters should replace standard heaters.

16. Worksheet for three-phase motors

farthest from the average stays on the same power lead, most of
the unbalance is coming from the power source. However, if the
reading farthest from the averages moves with the same motor
lead, the primary source of unbalance is on the motor side of
the starter. In this instance, consider a damaged cable, leaking
splice, poor connection, or faulty motor winding.

Below is a worksheet for calculating current unbalance on a


three-phase hookup. Use the calculations below as a guide.
Note: Current unbalance should not exceed 5% at service factor
load or 10% at rated input load. If the unbalance cannot be
corrected by rolling leads, the source of the unbalance must be
located and corrected. If, on the three possible hookups, the leg

Explanation and examples


Hookup 1
Here is an example of current readings at maximum pump loads on each leg of a three-wire hookup. You
must make calculations for all three hookups. To begin, add up all three readings for hookup numbers 1, 2,
and 3.

T1

51 amps

T2

46 amps

T3

53 amps

150

TOTAL

Hookup 1
Divide the total by three to obtain the average.

50 amps
3 150 amps
Hookup 1

Calculate the greatest current difference from the average.

50 amps
46 amps
4 amps

Divide this difference by the average to obtain the percentage of the unbalance.

Hookup 1
.08 or 8%
50 4.00 amps

In this case, the current unbalance for Hookup 1 is 8%.
