START UP PROCEDURES
1
Ensure all shipping plugs and/or paper covers are
removed from system and tagging information is
followed for successful startup.
2
Ensure seal fluid isolation valve is open. This valve
is located below the separator and/or before the
y-strainer.

Jog the motor briefly and check direction of
rotation. The correct direction of rotation is
marked by an arrow on the motor or pump
housing. If direction is incorrect switch any two of
the three leads at the power connection. The
correct direction of rotation is clockwise facing
the pump from the drive end and counter-
clockwise if viewed from the non-drive end.

Check drive coupling alignment. Angular alignment
should be within the following chart allowances.
Parallel alignment should also be within the
following chart allowances. Consult the factory
for specific system size alignment. Mono-block
units do not require any field adjustment (motors
are C-face mounted).
