4.4 Installation
4.4.1 Safety
instructions
DANGER
Before starting any installation work 
or removing any parts of the pump-
ing unit, read Chapter  1.6 "Safety", 
Page 6. 
Tighten all screws in accordance 
with Chapter 12.3 "Tightening 
torques". 
4.4.2
Sequence of installation
Perform the installation in the following order:
1. Prepare installation site, see Chapter 4.4.3,
2. Arrange components for installation, see
3. Inspect components, see Chapter
4.
Install motor, see Chapter 4.4.6, Page 26.
5.
Install coupling, see Chapter 4.4.7, Page 27.
6. Install pump bowl assembly, see Chap-
7.
Install impeller, see Chapter 4.4.9, Page 32.
8.
Vent motor, see Chapter 4.4.10, Page 33.
9. Install power cable, see Chapter
10. Fasten the power cable to the cable guard,
see Chapter 4.4.12, Page 39.
11. Install riser pipe, fasten power cable to riser
pipe, see Chapter 4.4.13, Page 40.
12. Connect power cable to terminal box, see
13. Connect terminal box to main power supply,
see Chapter 4.4.15, Page 43.
4.4.3
Prepare installation site
1. Verify that the wellhead foundation is poured
and cured, if made of concrete.
The total load on the wellhead foundation will 
consist of the motor, pump bowl assembly, 
riser pipe (full of water), wellhead assembly 
and power cable. See Chapter 12.2 "Data 
sheet", for weights. 
2. Verify that open discharge run-off, ditch, etc.
for flushing out well and testing unit is pro-
vided for. 
3. Verify that a log of the well recording depth,
straightness, casing variations, standing water 
level, rated capacity, pumping level, etc., is at 
the installation site. 
4.
Ensure that the well diameter is large enough 
down to the installation depth so that the 
pumping unit can be fitted without difficulties. 
See Chapter 3.4.1 "Survey of well", Page 16. 
5. Check the dependability of auxiliary equip-
ment, particularly of hoists.
6. Compare the information in Chapter
"Data sheet" with that on the rating plate on 
the motor. 
7. Ensure that the line voltage (measured be-
tween two phases) is equal to the motor volt-
age according to the rating plate. 
The maximum permissible voltage fluctuation 
is given in Chapter 12.2 "Data sheet". 
Greater voltage and frequency fluctuations 
must be reported to Flowserve and be con-
firmed by Flowserve in written. In case of 
doubt, ask Flowserve before starting up the 
pumping unit. 
8.
Measure the insulating resistance of the motor 
according to Chapter 6.8.1 "Insulation test", 
Page 53. 
CAUTION If the ascending riser pipe is made
of flanged pipes, the flanges must 
have recesses for the power cable if 
the well diameter is narrowly pro-
portioned.
