    1.7 Unauthorized Modifications andManufacture of Spares

    Modifications or changes to machines / equip-ment are only permissible with the manu-facturer's agreement. Original spare partsand accessories authorized by the manufac-turer ensure safety.The use of other components revokes any lia-bility for consequences which may result.

    1.8 Improper Application

    Delivered machinery / equipment is only gua-ranteed safe for the use specified.

    This machine / equipment was designed inaccordance with the prescribed conditions ofuse.The limits of use are laid down in the con-ditions of use and should in no way be ex-ceeded.

    1.9 Specific Points for the Use of aSpectra Pump

    A Spectra pump must be used for the pur-pose only for which it was sold.

    If you change or wish to change the processmedium, you must check with either thesupplier or manufacturer that the pump issuitable for the new medium. This is espe-cially important with aggressive, poisonous orotherwise hazardous substances.

    Pump criteria include:

    1. Compatibility with the medium

    2. Suitability for seal design / material,especially the shaft seal

    3. Resistance to pressure and temperatureof the medium.

    Please note that Spectra pumps are progres-sing cavity pumps and as such can generatevery high pressure.

    A blockage or the chance closure of a valvein the discharge line can cause a pressure risemanifold as high as can be tolerated by theinstallation. This can result in the bursting ofpipes, which must be avoided especially inthe case of dangerous media.

    Corresponding safety equipment musttherefore be installed, for example anemergency stop button, a pressure reliefvalve with return pipe or a bursting disc.

    During maintenance and repair work on thepump please note the following:

    1. Ensure that the pump drive can notbe turned on without authorization.

    2. When opening the pump followthe instructions for handling themedium (eg. protective clothing,no smoking etc).

    3. Before putting the pump back intooperation ensure that all guards andother safety devices (eg. drive–beltprotection, coupling protection) areproperly re–installed.

    2 Description

    The Spectra pump is a progressing cavitypump.The main components which determine thesystem discovered by Professor René Moineauare a rotating part, called the rotor and a sta-tic part, called the stator.The rotor is a helical screw with an extreme-ly large pitch, large thread depth and smallcentre diameter with round cross-section for1/2-geometry and elliptical cross-section for2/3-geometry. The stator has a two start orresp. 3 start thread and is double or resp. 1.5the pitch length of the rotor. This providesspace for the medium between the rotor andstator. When the rotor turns round inside thestator the medium moves continuously fromthe inlet to the outlet.

    The universal Spectra pump system unifiesmany positive characteristics of other pumptypes:

    � Like centrifugal pumps Spectra pumps haveno suction or pressure valves, but do have astable flow rate in proportion to the numberof revolutions.

    � Like piston pumps Spectra pumps have asuction capability of up to 8.5 m vacuummetric.

    � Like membrane and peristaltic pumps theSpectra pump can transport every type ofinhomogenous, gaseous and abrasive media,as well as those that are not of a liquid con-sistency or contain solids and/or fibrous mate-rial.

    � Like gear pumps and screw pumps theSpectra pump is capable of coping with highmedium viscosities.

    � Like piston, membrane, gear or screwpumps the Spectra pump can perform dosingoperations.

    2.2 General Data

    Noise emissions:

    The maximum permitted noise emission level at a work place is 70 dB (A).

    The noise level was measured in accordance with DIN Standard 45635-24-01-KL2 to assure that the pump does not exceed 70 dB (A).

    Noises generated by the drive and pipes are not included in the aboveemission value.

    A prerequisite for the noise emission level of ≤ 70 dB (A) is that the pump is operated in a cavity free regime and is bolted to a concrete base.

    3 Packaging, Transportation, Storage

    3.1 Packaging and Transportation

    The packings are labelled and symbols give the handling instructionsin accordance with DIN 55402.On receipt check for any transport damages. Transport damages should be reported to the transporter immediately.The pumps should be transported as closely as possible to the location of installation and only there should they be uncrated.

    Uncrated horizontal pumps should be lifted by using a shackle which can be attached to the baseplate. The bolt holes of the frame or the lifting lugs attached to the baseplate could be used as shown on the installation drawing.

    Vertical pumps should be lifted by using the bolt down holes,lifting lugs or shackles attached to the baseplate. This is shown onthe installation drawing. For most applications, the drive is mountedon top of the pump.

    Be careful when lifting top heavy pumps. The centre of gravity may beabove the points where the lifting gear is attached to. If the case, secure additionally against tipping over!

    Vertical pumps should not be deposited unless they are secured vertically.Hazards of tipping! Deposit only in horizontal position!

    It is essential to avoid that the total pump unit be suspended witheye bolts of the motor or gear box. These eye bolts should be used for lifting the motor and/or the gear box only.

    The Accident Prevention Rules, Section 18.4 relating to lifting accessories for the lifting of loads (VBG 9a) must be strictly adhered to.

    Because of the variety of possible pump designs and applications, only general instructions can be given here. These should be good enough for experienced assemblymen or transportation experts.When in doubt, please ask for detailed information on the pump unit concerned.

    When moving the pump or unit on wheels strictly attend to the following:

    � Pad lock the motor drive and secure against unintended starting up.

    � Move the pump unit carefully and slowly, especially where the ground is uneven. Hazards of tipping!

    � Ensure a stable position of the pump or unit at the operating /storage place and secure it by actuating all clamping devices on all the wheels or rollersagainst voluntary moving away.

    � Where fitted loosely, carefully watch the pipe bends when pumping.Power of repulsion!

    � Where necessary, secure the pump unit additionally with support blocks.

    3.2 Storage

    The pumps are preserved for transport unless specified otherwise.In cases of longer storage the pumps should be handled as follows until installation:

    � Stator:

    If the pump is not to be used immediately, then the elastomer along the contact line between rotor and stator may become permanently distorted (compression-set). This will increase the break away torque. Therefore, the stator should be removed and kept separately in a clean, cool and dry environment. Standard DIN 7716 summarizes detailed information on the storage of rubber products, some of which is gathered here, and the following notice applies to a storage for a period of up to six months.

    General

    Most of the rubber products may change their physical properties under unfavourable conditions or if treated improperly, which will result in a shorter lifetime. Or they may become useless through excessive hardening, aging, regenerating or permanent deformation, also because of blistering, cracking or other damages appearing on the surfaces. The changes may occur under the influence of oxygen, ozone, heat, light, humidity, solvents or because of storing the products under tension. If stored and treated properly, the rubber products will keep their properties, even over a long period of time (some years), almost unchanged. This does, however, not apply to uncured rubber compounds.

    3 PACKAGING, TRANSPORTATION, STORAGE PAGE3.1

    Store room

    The environment in which rubber products are being kept must be cool, dry, free of dust and rather airy, and they must not be stored in the open, not even in a weather sheltered space. Rubber products should be kept in surroundings not having less than minus 10 °C and not more than plus 15 °C. Store rooms should not be damp, and it must be ensured that there will be no condensation. Most favourable is an environment offering a relative humidity under 65 %. Rubber products must be protected against light, particularly direct sunlight or artificial light when having a high UV portion. They should furthermore be kept away from ventilation, especially draught, by wrapping them up. As ozone is very aggressive and harmful there should be no store room used which houses equipment likely to produce ozone, e.g. electric motors or other equipment which might bring about sparks or other electrical discharges. There must be no solvents, oil, grease, lubricants or any chemicals kept in a store room.

    5 Start-up

    The Spectra pump design requires strict attention to the following:

    Never run the Spectra pump dry!A few rotations in dry conditionwill damage the stator!

    � Before starting up for the first time, fill the pump with medium.In the case of high viscosity media fill with a liquid.Pump priming is vital to ensure lubrication of the rubber stator.Fill the piping on the pump suction side.In anti–clockwise rotation only: Fill the pump housing.

    The Spectra pump is a progressing cavity pump which can produce pressures that may cause the bursting of vessels or pipes.

    The power transmission train (shaft, coupling rod, joints, rotor)of the pump may be overloaded thus resulting in damage or breakage.

    Also the pump housing parts with their connections may be overloaded and break. There is a table in Section 4 of these Maintenance and Operating Instructions showing the pressure resistance of the pump housing parts.

    Never run the pump against a closed inlet or outlet valve!

    � Open valves and vents before starting the pump!

    � Check the direction of rotation by briefly switching on the pump motor.

    6 Temporary Shutdown

    � After stopping the pump empty and if necessary rinse it if

    – the medium might freeze due to the temperature surrounding the pump. Especially where there is a danger of frost if the pump is installed outside a building

    – the medium tends to solidify or harden

    – the medium tends to glue up the shaft seal.

    � Stator:

    When stored for a long period, the elastomer along the contact line between the rotor and stator may become permanently distorted (compression-set).This will increase the break away torque. For this reason, the stator should be removed (please observe Section 9!), and stored in a cool, dry place in air tight package to give protection against light and air.

    � Rotor:

    Support the rotor on wooden blocks and cover to protect it from mechanical damage, after the stator has been removed.

    � Stand-by pump:

    A stand-by pump is sometimes used as a back-up for the main pump and, when standing idle for longer periods, should be operated from time to time. The pump may otherwise become seized when being started up. This is due to compression set i.e. distortion of the stator against the surface of the rotor.

    7 Maintenance

    7.1 Pumps in General

    � The pumps should be regularly rinsed or cleaned if deposits of medium are likely to build up (sedimentation).

    If the pump needs to be opened to do this, ensure that the pumpand motor are switched off and cannot be turned on accidently(eg. by removing the fuse).

    Periodical standstill to allow for cleaning during operation depends on themedium and type of operation.

    � The pump can be cleaned:

    – through the cleaning ports provided in the pump housing

    – manually by dismantling the pump.

    7.2 Lubrication

    The Spectra pump does not require frequent lubrication.

    � Maintenance of the drive should be carried out accordingto the drive manufacturers instructions.

    � Maintenance– where no manufacturers instructions are available and– when normal conditions of use exist:

    – Strip down the drive unit– Remove the bearings– Clean all parts– Renew the lubricant

    every 5000 operating hours or at least every two years.

    Special lubricants are often specified for mechanically controlled variable speed drives.It is therefore important to follow the drive manufacturersmaintenance instructions.

  • 7.5 Shaft Sealing through Single Mechanical Seal

    There are various constructions of mechanical seals. Especially advantageous is the use of standard mechanical seals according to DIN 24960. These seals have regardless of their brand the same fitting dimensions which makes them interchangeable.Mechanical seals with a coil spring can only be used for pumps which are run in one direction of rotation.

    � The seal specification of a Spectra pump is recordedon the order confirmation sheet.

    � Pumps fitted with direction dependent seals should never be run in the opposite direction ofthe rotation arrow.

    � If excessive leakages occur the spring tension and the seal surfaces should be checked, and the seal be replaced, if necessary.

    Single mechanical seals usually work without any additionalequipment.

    Slip the circlip (5065) on to the coupling rod (1998).Slide the sleeve (5115) on to coupling rod (1998) sothe inside diameter of chamfering (A) is being pla-ced towards the coupling rod (1998) extension.Chamfering (A) will later on ease the installationover the O-rings (8060).Orient the head of coupling rod (1998) until it is invertical position for the bore (B) for the pin (5075).

    Slide the coupling rod (1998) with SM-pin joint seal(8235) into the bore of rotor (1999) or connectingshaft (1050) and insert the pin (5075) from below andpush up to the upper edge of coupling rod (1998).Support the pin (5075) against dropping out.Slide the SM-pin joint seal (8235) into the rotor(1999) or connecting shaft (1050) only from below,and in a slightly slanted position.

    For lubrication, use an oil can which should befitted with a thin plastic hose having an outside dia-meter of not more than 4 mm.Insert this hose into the upper oil port opening inthe rotor (1999) or connecting shaft (1050). Thenslide the hose end past the coupling rod (1998)all the way down to the bottom section of the rotorhead (1999) or connecting shaft (1050).Slowly fill with lubricating oil up to the filling port.

    Pull the hose out.Then insert the hose end through the small gap onthe topside of SM-pin joint seal (8235) and guide itdown to the bottom of the hollow space betweencoupling rod (1998) and SM-pin joint seal (8235).Slowly fill with lubricating oil up to the gap.

    10.4 Replacing the Wear Sleeves of Adapter, Rotor and Coupling Rod

    The wear sleeves (5435, 5440) have a very tight fit.A press should be used to remove or refit them.

    It may be possible though to drive the damagedsleeves out with a suitable mandrel. A rigid vicehowever is needed at the least for pressing newsleeves (5435, 5440) in again.

    Orient the wear sleeves (5435) so that their ovalbore agrees with the longitudinal axis of thecoupling rod (1998).

    Generously oil the wear sleeves (5435, 5440).

    Every wear sleeve (5435, 5440) has got one smallerouter diameter on one end for better insertion intothe bores of the coupling rod.

    Ensure the sleeves are placed in the correct orien-tation to the coupling rod (1998).

    12 Removal and Fitting of the Single Mechanical Seal (Spectra 6/300 - 3/12000)

    � Carefully slide out mechanical seal housing (7005) together with the parts of the mechanical seal contained in it from connecting shaft (1050).

    � Carefully push mechanical seal (7010) stationary seat out of mechanical seal housing (7005).

    Refitting is a simple reversal of the above procedure.

    � To reduce frictional forces during seal assembly, apply some glycerine to the shaft and the seal housing in the area of the gaskets.

    � Special care must be taken when fitting double PTFE-coated gaskets:the joint of the outer coating must point away from the seal assemblydirection, otherwise the coating may open or be pulled off!

    Ensure that the distribution of pressure is uniform when insertingthe pressure sensitive counter rings. When inserting larger rings, use a suitable mandrel. Do not allow any foreign bodies to get between the sliding surfaces.

    � Exactly keep to the seal installation dimensions and ensure that the sealing faces are correctly pressed together (see table on sectional drawing W 209.000 or W 210.000).

    � Insert mechanical seal (7010) stationary seat into mechanical seal housing (7005).

    � Insert mechanical seal housing (7005) together with the stationary seatinto the drive stool without the installed connecting shaft (1050).

    � If necessary take the installation dimension from the table and add the thickness S of the set ring (7086) when existing.

    � Mark this installation dimension on the connecting shaft (1050).

    � Fix the rotating unit of the mechanical seal (7010) on the connceting shaft (1050) depending on the installation dimension so that the rotating unit of the mechanical seal (7010) or the set ring (7086) is at the mark.

    � Insert connecting shaft (1050) with the rotating unit of the mechanical seal (7010) into drive stool (0085) and install lip seal (7091, if existing. Push the set ring (1035) on to connecting shaft (1050) and observe at this the installation direction (see mark). Push connecting shaft (1050) on to the drive shaft and connect with pin (1030).

    3. Assembly instructions, storage, preparation, installation Please observe all of the general safety information in Section 1.4, 1.3 and in the individual sections.

    3.1 Storing the gear unit For short-term storage before commissioning, please observe the following:

    • Store in the fitting position (see Section 6.1) and secure gear units against falling • Lightly grease bare metal housing surfaces and shafts • Store in dry rooms • Temperature must not fluctuate beyond the range of –5 oC to +40 oC • Relative humidity less than 60% • No direct exposure to sunlight or UV light • No aggressive, corrosive substances (contaminated air, ozone, gases, solvents, acids,

    alkalis, salts, radioactivity etc.) in the immediate vicinity • No vibration or oscillation

    3.2 Long-term storage

    Note!

    For storage or standstill periods in excess of 9 months, Getriebebau NORD recommends the long-term storage option. With the long-term storage option and the use of the measures listed below, storage for up to 2 years is possible. As the actual influences on the unit greatly depend on the local conditions, these times should only be regarded as guide values.

    Conditions of the gear unit and storage area for long-term storage prior to commissioning: • Store in the fitting position (see Section 6.1) and secure gear units against falling • Transportation damage to the external paint must be repaired. Check that a suitable rust

    inhibitor is applied to the flange bearing surfaces. If necessary apply a suitable rust inhibitor to the surfaces.

    • Gear units with the long-term storage option are completely filled with lubricant or have VCI corrosion protection agents added to the gear oil. (See label on gear unit)

    • The sealing band in the vent plug must not be removed during storage. The gear unit must remain sealed tight.

    • Store in a dry place. • In tropical regions, the drive unit must be protected against damage by insects • Temperature must not fluctuate beyond the range of –5 oC to +40 oC • Relative humidity less than 60% • No direct exposure to sunlight or UV light • No aggressive, corrosive substances (contaminated air, ozone, gases, solvents, acids,

    alkalis, salts, radioactivity etc.) in the immediate vicinity • No vibration or oscillation

    Measures during storage or standstill periods • If the relative humidity is

    3.3 Transporting the gear unit

    Danger!

    To prevent injury, the danger area must be generously cordoned off. Standing under the gear unit during transport is extremely dangerous.

    Attention!

    Avoid damage to the gear unit. Impacts to the free ends of the shafts may cause internal damage to the gear unit.

    Use adequately dimensioned and suitable means of transportation. Lifting tackle must be designed for the weight of the gear unit. The weight of the gear unit can be obtained from the dispatch documents.

    3.4 Preparing for installation The drive unit must be inspected and may only be installed if no transportation damage or leaks are visible. In particular the radial seals and the sealing caps must be inspected for damage. All bare metal surfaces and shafts of the gear unit are protected against corrosion with oil, grease or corrosion protection agents before shipping. Thoroughly remove all oil, grease or corrosion protection agents and any dirt from the shafts and flange surfaces before assembly. In applications where an incorrect rotational direction may result in damage or potential risk, the correct rotational direction of the drive shaft is to be established by test running the drive when uncoupled and guaranteeing such for subsequent operation. Gears with integrated return stops are marked w
