Setup
Install the pump horizontal on the pump feet. Other positions have an influence on draining, filling,
operation of the mechanical shaft seal, etc. For any installation methods other than horizontal contact:

Drive gear:
When the pump is supplied with a free shaft end the user is himself responsible for
the drive gear and its assembly with the pump.
On delivery of a pump unit the standard operating instructions must be present.
Contact the supplier if these are not present.
When the pump is supplied with free shaft end the user must also
fit guards to shield turning parts.
These guards must be made of the correct material.
4.12 Radial load shaft end
The shaft end of the pump shaft may be loaded in the radial direction with the maximum radial force (Fr)
mentioned in the table (see technical specifications B-Series). This force is calculated on the maximum
allowed turning torque and the maximum working pressure of the pump with the pulley diameter
mentioned.
With direct drive with flexible coupling this force is amply sufficient when the pump and drive gear are
well aligned.
A belt drive can be used from the B40. The allowed radial force may then be greater, but it must be
calculated case by case on the basis of working pressure, driving torque and size of the belt pulley. In this
case contact.
