Installation
Figure 6: Jackscrew locations, top view
1. Lower the baseplate carefully onto the foundation bolts.
The baseplate will rest on top of the foundation on the jackscrews provided on the
baseplate.
2. Adjust the leveling jackscrews, located adjacent to the foundation bolt holes, until the
baseplate rests 1 to 2 in. (25 to 50 mm) above the foundation in order to allow for adequate
grouting.
This provides even support for the baseplate after grouting.
3. Level the baseplate to within 0.002 in./ft. (0.167 mm/m) of the length or width of the
baseplate by adjusting the jackscrews.
• The maximum total variation from one end or side of the baseplate to the other is
0.015 in. (0.38 mm).
• Use the equipment mounting surfaces in order to establish the level.
4. Use a non-bonding (anti-seize) compound such as paste wax to coat the portions of the
jackscrews that will contact the grout.
This facilitates removal of the screws after grouting.
NOTICE:
Do not use oils or liquid wax.
5. Thread the nuts onto the foundation bolts and hand-tighten.
Install the pump, driver, and coupling
1. Mount and fasten the pump on the baseplate. Use applicable bolts.
2. Mount the driver on the baseplate. Use applicable bolts and hand tighten.
3. Install the coupling.
See the installation instructions from the coupling manufacturer.
Pump-to-driver alignment
Precautions
WARNING:
• Follow shaft alignment procedures in order to prevent catastrophic failure of drive components or
unintended contact of rotating parts. Follow the coupling installation and operation procedures from
the coupling manufacturer.
• Always disconnect and lock out power to the driver before you perform any installation or
maintenance tasks. Failure to disconnect and lock out driver power will result in serious physical
injury.
