2.9 Unauthorised modes of operation


Never operate the pump (set) outside the limits stated in the data sheet and in this
manual.
The warranty relating to the operating reliability and safety of the supplied pump
(set) is only valid if the equipment is used in accordance with its intended use.

2.10 Explosion protection


Always observe the information on explosion protection given in this section when
! DANGER operating the pump in potentially explosive atmospheres.

Only pumps/pump sets marked as explosion-proof and identified as such in the data
sheet may be used in potentially explosive atmospheres.
Special conditions apply to the operation of explosion-proof pump sets to EC
Directive 94/9/EC (ATEX).
Especially adhere to the sections in this manual marked with the Ex symbol and the
following sections (⇨ Section 2.10.1 Page 11) to (⇨ Section 2.10.4 Page 12) (⇨ Section
2.10.3 Page 12) .
The explosion-proof status of the pump set is only assured if the pump set is used in

Never operate the pump set outside the limits stated in the data sheet and on the
name plate.
Prevent impermissible modes of operation at all times.

2.10.1 Marking
Pump The marking on the pump refers to the pump part only.
Example of such marking: II 2 G c TX
Refer to the Temperature Limits table for the temperatures permitted for the
individual pump variants. (⇨ Section 2.10.2 Page 11)
Shaft coupling An EC manufacturer's declaration is required for the shaft coupling; the shaft
coupling must be marked accordingly.
Motor The motor must be considered separately.

2.10.2 Temperature limits


In normal pump operation, the highest temperatures are to be expected on the
surface of the pump casing, at the shaft seal and in the bearing areas.
The surface temperature at the pump casing corresponds to the temperature of the
fluid handled. If the pump is heated in addition, the operator of the system is
responsible for observing the specified temperature classes and fluid temperature
(operating temperature).
The table below lists the temperature classes and the resulting theoretical
temperature limits of the fluid handled (a possible temperature rise in the shaft seal
area has already been taken into account).
The temperature class specifies the maximum permissible temperature at the surface
of the pump set during operation. For the permissible operating temperature of the
pump in question refer to the data sheet.

T1 Maximum 400 °C2)
T2 280 °C
T3 185 °C
T4 120 °C
T5 85 °C
T6 Only after consultation
with the manufacturer
Temperature class T5 Based on an ambient temperature of 40 °C and proper maintenance and operation,
compliance with temperature class T5 is warranted in the area of the rolling element
bearings. If the ambient temperature exceeds 40 °C, contact the manufacturer.
Temperature class T6 A special design is required to comply with the requirements of temperature class T6
in the bearing area.
Misuse, malfunctions or non-compliance with the instructions may result in
substantially higher temperatures.
If the pump is to be operated at a higher temperature, if there is no data sheet or if
the pump is part of a pool of pumps, contact KSB for the maximum permissible
operating temperature.

2.10.3 Monitoring equipment


The pump (set) must only be operated within the limits specified in the data sheet
and on the name plate.
If the system operator cannot warrant compliance with these operating limits,
appropriate monitoring devices must be used.
Check whether monitoring equipment is required to ensure that the pump set
functions properly.
Contact KSB for further information on monitoring equipment.

2.10.4 Operating limits


The minimum flows indicated in (⇨ Section 6.2.3.1 Page 45) refer to water and water-
like fluids handled. Longer operating periods with these fluids and at the flow rates
indicated will not cause an additional increase in the temperatures at the pump
surface. However, if the physical properties of the fluids handled differ from those of
water, it is essential to check whether additional heat build-up may occur and if the
minimum flow rate must therefore be increased. The calculation formula in
(⇨ Section 6.2.3.1 Page 45) can be used to check whether additional heat build-up
may lead to a dangerous temperature increase at the pump surface.

Design The horizontal, non-self-priming, radially split volute casing pump in back pull-out
design is designed with an axial fluid inlet and a radial outlet.
The rotor runs in an axially adjustable bearing assembly and is connected to the
motor by a shaft coupling.
Function The uniformly rotating impeller of the centrifugal pump transfers mechanical energy
to the fluid passing through the pump.
The fluid enters the pump axially via the suction nozzle (7) and is accelerated
outward by the rotating impeller (8). In the flow passage of the pump casing the
kinetic energy of the fluid is converted into pressure energy. The fluid leaves the
pump via the discharge nozzle (2).
The casing is fitted with a replaceable wear plate (1). The diagonal clearance gap
prevents frequent deflection of the clearance gap flow heading in the direction of
the suction nozzle. This ensures a longer service life if solids-laden fluids are handled.
Owing to the axially adjustable bearing assembly, the clearance gap can be set to an
optimum width.
The casing is closed by a discharge cover (3). The shaft (5) enters the casing via this
cover. A shaft seal (9) provides reliable sealing towards the atmosphere.

5.4.3 Auxiliary connections

DANGER
Risk of potentially explosive atmosphere by mixing of incompatible fluids in the
auxiliary piping
Risk of burns!
Explosion hazard!
▷ Make sure that the barrier fluid and quench liquid are compatible with the
fluid pumped.

WARNING
Failure to use or incorrect use of auxiliary connections (e.g. barrier fluid, flushing
liquid, etc.)
Risk of injury from escaping fluid!
Risk of burns!
Malfunction of the pump!
▷ Refer to the general arrangement drawing, the piping layout and pump
markings (if any) for the quantity, dimensions and locations of auxiliary
connections.
▷ Use the auxiliary connections provided.

5.5 Enclosure/insulation

DANGER
Risk of potentially explosive atmosphere due to insufficient venting
Explosion hazard!
▷ Make sure the space between the casing cover/discharge cover and the bearing
cover is sufficiently vented.
▷ Never close or cover the perforation of the bearing bracket guards (e.g. by
insulation).

WARNING
Unprotected rotating pulleys
Risk of injury by rotating pulleys!
▷ Always operate the pump set with a belt guard.
If the customer specifically requests not to include a belt guard in KSB's
delivery, then the operator must supply one!
▷ Observe all relevant regulations for selecting a belt guard.

WARNING
The volute casing and casing/discharge cover take on the same temperature as the
fluid handled
Risk of burns!
▷ Insulate the volute casing.
▷ Fit protective equipment.

CAUTION

5.6 Checking the alignment of coupling/belt drive


After the pump set has been installed (⇨ Section 5.3 Page 22) and connected to the
piping (⇨ Section 5.4 Page 24) , check the alignment of the coupling or belt drive,
depending on the type of installation.

5.6.1 Checking the coupling alignment

DANGER
Inadmissible temperatures at the coupling or bearings due to misalignment of the
coupling
Explosion hazard!
Risk of burns!
▷ Make sure that the coupling is correctly aligned at all times.

CAUTION
Misalignment of pump and motor shafts
Damage to pump, motor and coupling!
▷ Always check the coupling after the pump has been installed and connected to
the piping.
▷ Also check the coupling of pump sets supplied with pump and motor mounted
on the same baseplate.

1 Straight-edge 2 Gauge
✓ The coupling guard and its footboard, if any, have been removed.
1. Loosen the support foot and re-tighten it without transmitting any stresses and
strains.
2. Place the straight-edge axially on both coupling halves.
3. Leave the straight-edge in this position and turn the coupling by hand.
The coupling is aligned correctly if the distances A and B to the respective shafts
are the same at all points around the circumference.
The radial and axial deviation between the two coupling halves must not
exceed 0.1 mm, during standstill as well as at operating temperature and under
inlet pressure.
4. Check the distance (dimension see general arrangement drawing) between the
