By means of the V-Belts, withdrawable Max Torque is:
65 Nm which corresponds to:
7 HP at 750 rpm;
7.4 HP at 800 rpm;
8.3 HP at 900 rpm;
9.3 HP at 1000 rpm;
11.1 HP at 1200 rpm.
By means of the joint, withdrawable Max Torque is:
130 Nm which corresponds to:
14 HP at 750 rpm;
14.8 HP at 800 rpm;
16.6 HP at 900 rpm;
18.6 HP at 1000 rpm;
22.2 HP at 1200 rpm.
By means of the V-belt, the transmission is
considered suitable if: belt pull is applied at a max
distance of 22mm from the bend shaft shoulder
Fig.13. Min diameter of pulley to be used = Ø 100 m
With transmission by means of the joint, pay
particular attention to perfect alignment so that no
transverse forces are generated on the pump shaft.

above, contact our Technical or Customer Service
Departments.
10 START-UP AND OPERATION
10.1 Preliminary checks
Before start-up, ensure that:
The suction line is connected and pressurized
(see par.9.4 - 9.5 - 9.6) the pump must never run
dry.
1. The suction line ensures a hermetic seal over time.
2. Any shut-o valves between the supply source and the
pump are fully open. The outlet line is free discharge, to
permit rapid expulsion of the air present in the pump
manifold and therefore facilitate fast priming.
3. All suction and outlet ttings and connections are
properly tightened.
4. The coupling tolerances on the pump/transmission axis
(half-joint misalignment, Cardan joint tilt, belt pulling,
etc.) remain within limits required by the transmission
manufacturer.
5. Oil in the pump casing is at level, veried with a dipstick
(Fig.14, pos.c) and exceptionally with a level indicator
(Fig.14, pos.d).
Fig.14
In case of prolonged storage or long-term
inactivity, check proper functioning of the
suction and outlet valves.
10.2 Goodwill
1. At rst start-up, verify that the rotation direction and the
supply pressure are correct.
2. Start-up the pump without any load.
3. Check that the supply pressure is correct.
4. Check that the rotation rpm during operation does not
exceed the nominal rpm of the pump.
5. Let the pump run for a period of no less than 3 minutes,
before putting it under pressure.
6. Before each pump stop, reset pressure by means of the
control valve or with any relieving devices and reduce to a
minimum rpm (activation with combustion motors).
11 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
For pump reliability and eciency, comply with maintenance
intervals as shown in the table of Fig.15.

12 PUMP STORAGE
12.1 Long-term inactivity
If the pump is started for the rst time after a long
period from the date of shipment, before operation
check the oil level, inspect the valves as specied
in chapter 10, then follow described start-up
procedures.
