Fig. 11: Filter in the piping
1 Differential pressure gauge 2 Filter
NOTE
Use a filter with laid-in wire mesh (mesh width 0.5 mm, wire diameter 0.25 mm) of
corrosion-resistant material.
Use a filter three times the diameter of the piping.
Conical filters have proved suitable.
4. Connect the pump nozzles to the piping.
CAUTION
Aggressive flushing and pickling agents
Damage to the pump!
▷ Match the cleaning operation mode and duration for flushing and pickling
service to the casing and seal materials used.

Forces and moments at the pump nozzles
The resulting permissible forces have
been determined according to the
following formulas:
The data on forces and moments apply to static pipelines only. If the limits are
exceeded, they must be checked and verified.
If a computerised strength analysis is required, please contact KSB!
The values are only applicable if the pump is installed on a completely grouted
baseplate and bolted to a rigid and level foundation.
The forces and moments were determined on the basis of API 610 (6th edition), table
2, values doubled.
Correction coefficients depending on material and temperature (see diagram below).
