4.8 Final free rotation check
After connecting the piping, rotate the pump drive 
shaft clockwise (viewed from motor end) by hand 
several complete revolutions to be sure there is no 
binding and that all parts are free. If piping caused 
unit to be in a bind, correct piping to relieve strain 
on the pump. 
 
4.9 Auxiliary piping
Check to see if any other connections need to be 
made to pump, such as fluid injection to stuffing 
box for seal or packing lubrication (when furnished) 
and make the required connections. 
 
Check to see that connections are made to the 
lubrication fittings at pump manifold [3869] on 
mounting plate [6130] 
 
4.10 Electrical connections
Electrical connections must be made
by a qualified Electrician in accordance with 
relevant local national and international regulations. 
It is important to be aware of the EUROPEAN
DIRECTIVE on potentially explosive areas where 
compliance with IEC60079-14 is an additional 
requirement for making electrical connections. 
It is important to be aware of the EUROPEAN
DIRECTIVE on electromagnetic compatibility when 
wiring up and installing equipment on site. 
Attention must be paid to ensure that the techniques 
used during wiring/installation do not increase 
electromagnetic emissions or decrease the 
electromagnetic immunity of the equipment, wiring or 
any connected devices. If in any doubt contact 
Flowserve for advice. 
The motor must be wired up in
accordance with the motor manufacturer's 
instructions (normally supplied within the terminal 
box) including any temperature, earth leakage, 
current and other protective devices as appropriate. 
The identification nameplate should be checked to 
ensure the power supply is appropriate. 
See section 5.4, Direction of rotation
before connecting the motor to the electrical supply.
