The top of the oil should be level with the underside of the filler cap. Water is removed by means of the drain tap fitted to the side of the coalescer sump.
Manual No/Rev W72-002E / 11 Operators Handbook for Diesel Driven Pump Sets PUMP VACUUM PRESSURE SEAL The seal is product lubricated and therefore requires only regular inspections of condition, signified by rate of leakage, and eventual replacement. To replace the packing:- material is graphite impregnated braided P.T.F.E. 7. 7.5.1Close coupled AC50, AC75, AC80 & AC100 pumps 1. Ensure the volute is drained and contains no harmful residues. A drain tap is located on the bottom of the volute. 2.
Manual No/Rev W72-002 / 11 Operators Handbook for Diesel Driven Pump Sets 5. Slide the seal assembly back along the shaft to locate on backplate. Tighten securing nuts and screws evenly. 6. Refit the shaft guard. 7.6MECHANICAL SEALS ATTENTION 1. Ensure that the coolant/lubricant level is maintained. It is imperative that the seals are never run dry. Immediate seal failure will result. 2. Any contamination of the fluid should be investigated immediately.
