6 Description and function
6.1 Description of the product
MISO / PISO pumps are horizontal, single stage volute
casing pumps with nominal outputs and flange dimensions
meeting ANSI B16.1 CLASS 125 FF (FOR CAST IRON
FLANGES) / ANSI B16.5 CLASS 150 RF (FOR STEEL
FLANGES). Their back pull out construction enables the
disassembly of the complete bearing unit towards the
drive side without removing the pump casing from the pipe
work. MISO / PISO pumps are preferably used when pure or
turbid liquids, not containing solid particles, are handled.
6.1.1 Shaft Seal
Depending on the application, different shaft sealing
executions are offered.
It is advised to use the stuffing box version in the
following installation configurations:
• If the pump draws from a suction line,
• If the pump has a feed line with a pressure of less than 0.5
bar.
• If the pumped liquid is at or near its boiling point.
6.1.2 Engine driven pump
An engine driven pump set is the unitization of a bare
shaft pump and a Diesel engine on the same base plate.
Refer to the engine installation manual. The engine driven
pump set is supplied with the foundation bolts for
grounding. Use the one supplied or equivalent of bigger
size. Ensure a correct electrical earth connection between
engine, base plate and main earth. (Figure 2 Pg. No.3)
NOTE:
Before starting the pump please cross check the
alignment of pump and engine on the base plate, coupling
bush fitment, clearness on the periphery of the coupling.
If any difference in the center height is observed, please
use shims of suitable thickness to overcome the
misalignment
